about

"Let Zeus, born in the open, awake to all under the sky, ever-watchful, ever-noticing, be exemplar for responding to all that the senses present with a richly elaborating imagination. Only well-shaped images fed by the senses can contain and differentiate our innate titanism."
--James Hillman

In this episode we consider today's battle with the titanic, the excess and pressure of the "unlimited" in Western culture, and the numbness and stress that it engenders in us. How can we participate effectively in the cultural dynamics and find a measure of health and happiness for ourselves?

"The mind that generalizes continually prevents itself from those experiences which would allow it to see and feel deeply." W.B. Yeats
