Today, we are talking about... folklore stories. Folklore stories are like collective unconscious stories, except folklore stories actually have spirit authors (there are spirits on the other side who write them). Collective unconscious stories are written by mass consciousness, based on themes that show up in human’s lifetimes, over and over again.
We can talk about... the boy and the star. There was a man, and one time, a woman smiled at him. That one smile was all he thought about for the rest of his life. When he looked at the stars, there was a star that if he squinted his eyes, looked like a smile. He stared dreamily at that star, night after night, remembering that woman.
Some say, this story reminds them of a certain character in Party Like Jesus.
The other one I wanted to discuss... the teacher.
There was a man, the character of which is unclear. Is he a bad guy or a good guy? He has a temper... it is unclear, but when he teaches, MAN, he is fantastic!
Without knowing what I was referencing... sometimes I imagine a computer game icon man dancing, when I listen to the song Concentrate by Xhibit. But, just to the part with Nam Myo Renge Kyo. Like the computer game icon is holding something in the air, getting into a flow and teaching, the dance represents flow.
It’s actually a reference to my dad, and how he’s a good teacher. He’s a good soul, however, he is at risk of decline... a common predicament that comes with early virtuous souls, or souls that are capable of growing in virtue... they look the same as psychopath souls, or souls that turn into psychopaths (I use that term loosely, actually, not all people we consider psychopaths are bad souls, psychopath is a broad term), the common trait is interest in other souls. When this shows up, it depends on nurture.... you have to plan your lifetimes, to nurture your good side.
When we first addressed this story, I swore the little computer game icon man came from a computer game... upon thinking about it, it clearly did not.
I am not entirely clear on the purpose of folklore and collective unconscious literature... guides say it helps us better understand literature. Without it, the world lacks depth, or something.
first of all I'd like to comment that it was a well-written.. The person who wrote it clearly is thinking on multiple levels which is very good because most people don't. I think on multiple levels as well when doing many of the things that I do because to others these things seem complex it may even bother them to some extent but if you don't explore everything then you'll never know. This is Leslie we met you know where I am the Canadian businessman from Toronto who is also something quite different in Europe.
