The Meaningful Trails (2)

Since the era of Newton in particular, the meaning of reality in human life is being limited only to the things that visible and tangible. However, since Albert Einstein came up with his quantum mechanics theory, the meaning of reality evolves and involves the invisible and the untouchable, in which energy is named as one of those. Ever since, the journey of human discovery became more intense, far beyond any human sights. Mythology is one of the options that available in serving this purpose. The ancient myths that aged much older than any religions.


Whilst among the scientists the word myth is often identified as nonsense or considerably absurd, some of them like Karen Armstrong use mythology as one of the important foundations for an argumentation. And regarding the subject of mythology, Joseph Campbell truly has no match. His masterpiece called The Power of Myth exert an enormous influence over the world. He touches philosophy, psychology, history of religions, physics, sociology, anthropology. His journey as a mythologist enable him to trace off the human beings whom considered as a highly regarded figure (hero) in different parts of the world.
The concept of this highly regarded figure is pretty similar to the concept of God in religions. A very old myth that is very unique regarding a non-sexual figure was once found in the Indonesian archipelago. The figure was neither a woman nor a man.
The revelation of this myth may vary. Yet, it became an input that the Indonesian archipelago was once a region with a very high level of energy. In a profound language of spirituality, duality is similar to woman-man, wrong-right, bad-good, which made human a subject to the law of gravity (being pulled down). Hence, the persistence to keep witnessing through meditation as to get beyond any form of dualities would then enable one to flourish, following the law of levitation (being lifted up). In our era nowadays, this archipelago is indeed being pulled down by the low level of energy such as violence, which then left a homework for the old souls whose born here to lift up the energy vibration level of this once overwhelming location.
