“In imitating the exemplary acts of a god or of a mythic hero, or simply by recounting their adventures, the man of an archaic society detaches himself from profane time and magically re-enters the Great Time, the sacred time.”
― Mircea Eliade, Myths, Dreams and Mysteries

Notes: Mircea Eliade, the Romanian scholar renowned for his work in comparative religion, philosophy, and literature was born on this day in 1907. Eliade viewed modern secularism as a force corroding humanity's perception of the divine. Eliade traced this shift back to the revolutionary impact of Jewish monotheism, which desacralised the cosmos, a process further propagated by Judeo-Christianity among gentiles. Despite his mourning over the vanishing of the sacred in contemporary society, Eliade remained hopeful. He envisioned a resurgence of the sacred, foreseeing its potential to reignite creativity in the realms of arts and sciences.

Kabbalistic Path Working in a nutshell.

This is Western "Meditation" btw.

“According to Buddhism, all living beings experience the results of their own actions and are born in worlds appropriate to their actions. But because the world is not subject to the results of its own actions, the world itself does not give rise to another world. Instead, it is produced through the collective actions (sādhāraṇa-karman) of large numbers of people. In other words, the world is created not by God, but by people. Therefore, it is people who must bear responsibility for the state of the world.”
