From ancient fireside tales to modern cinematic universes, humanity has always turned to mythic stories to make sense of the world. But these aren’t just idle distractions or entertainment—they’re essential tools for navigating the profound and perplexing questions of existence. Why are we here? What is our purpose? How can we find meaning in a world that is often unpredictable and chaotic? These timeless questions are embedded in the myths and stories that have guided civilizations for millennia, and they still hold the power to illuminate our personal and collective journeys. This talk will explore what myths engage these questions and what they have to say about them.
Through myth, we gain insight into the patterns of human experience, offering a lens to reimagine our challenges as opportunities for transformation. They are not relics of the past but living, breathing narratives that evolve alongside us. By understanding the enduring relevance of these stories, we can discover how to harness their wisdom to navigate our own quests for meaning. At a time when our world faces unprecedented challenges, the mythic quest for meaning reminds us of our capacity for creativity, courage, and connection.
