“Our mind needs a code to translate consensus images into thoughts and feelings… the translation code takes the form of a mental narrative we tell ourselves; a story that implies particular correspondences between outer images and inner feelings and ideas. The translation code is thus a myth… myth is a story that implies a certain way of interpreting consensus reality so to derive meaning and affective charge from its images and interactions.” — Bernardo Kastrup
