“In order to understand the conditions we are in, we must place ourselves not in the mainstream of life but in the timeless stream of myth. As the fabric of life loosens, the veil between this world of hard facts and the otherworld of great imagination also becomes thinner and more permeable. Just as time seems to be running out, timeless things try to slip back into human awareness.” SpiritImaginationTimelessness Book:The Genius Myth Source: The Genius Myth

“Until, modern times when it became mostly a civic task, education was considered a sacred work. It was sacred because it involved the indwelling spirit in the student and because it required an awakened spirit in the teachers. Spirit to spirit, genius to genius, soul to soul go the true lessons that help young people become themselves. Ultimately, each person holds the key to the story trying to be lived from within, but first someone else must help unlock the mystery of one’s life.” PeopleTryingFirstsPersonsSoulHelpingStoriesYoungSpiritTeacherMysteryModernStudentsKeysGeniusInvolvedLessonsTasksSacredWorking ItAwakenedCivicsModern Times Author:Michael Meade
