Day 5

After Life and After Death

During which the workshop rationale is revealed

Re-envisioning personal, family and cultural myths

Seeking more personally meaningful myths

And training one’s Master of Scenarios

As symbolic immortality projects

Enabling participation in mythic hygiene

Even after a beautiful death

Synopsis

Today, they asked more specifically for our help to clarify the diverse presentations of our condition – amythic death anxiety. And also, to help develop the experimental therapy – ritual design for mythic hygiene. This medicalised approach you are imagining is clearly a nod to your father’s profession.

People cannot work on their psyche while experiencing existential crisis. We are fortunate and privileged to have this space – to live between the Holocausts. Space in which to experiment with changing stories and thereby changing the world. Space in which to design your symbolic immortality projects. Space to design and train this being that will eventually emulate you.
