Re: Spiritual Hierarchies
what are the archetypes and how many are there?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 19156676


archetypes are symobls and often conceptualized myths. i would also say they generally contain both information and truth being transmitted specifially to the person looking at it. i would venture to guess our ancestors used this as a way to store information though history and probably lies within DNA and our natural enviroment. also read some jung.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1634447


Archetypes are very important as are 'myths' for the reasons in the AC's post. Homer is a good place to start.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 21414916


they are. i further theorize that the collective unconcious concept is a more natural database to store symbols and archetypes, and our dna both extracts and decodes from this database. im sure its all rather complicated.

Re: Spiritual Hierarchies
The only issue I have is this... Things are more complicated than the relatively simplistic archetypes of the past. As humans develop more consciousness, they express this through fiction which influences nonfiction then fiction to nonfiction, rinsing and repeating all through history. As a result, the tropes or archetypes splinter into sub-archetypes. Like the Nobody, a classic Messiah archetype... giving examples in media of all types via TVTropes.org :)

The Messianic Archetype - [link to tvtropes.org]

Which gives us these "sub-tropes":

The Messiah - [link to tvtropes.org]

The Dark Messiah - [link to tvtropes.org]

The Chosen One - [link to tvtropes.org]

The Unchosen One - [link to tvtropes.org]

Sucks to be the Chosen One - [link to tvtropes.org]

The Anti-Christ - [link to tvtropes.org]

The Anti-Anti-Christ - [link to tvtropes.org]

The Only One - [link to tvtropes.org]

So which one of these archetypes are we looking for, lol?

Interesting. But yet I sense my own ego wanting me to be this person and I assume that everyone else does too.

It's a nice story though. I hope the guy/girl/transgender brings balance back to this ridiculous world.

Edit for humor.
 Quoting: Jonny Blaze


Actually, I think the story is cool but unnecessary for this website. People come here because there is an emptiness inside them that is not being filled by the real world.
 Quoting: Jonny Blaze


or simply because our intelectual wisdom is too superior to the sheep outside.. only here we feel home. sort of.
To live is to believe in the power of dreams! To dream is to believe in the power of love! To love is to Know the truth!
The Desire to Be fuel the belief that you Are which ignite the Will to Become which bring back forth the desire to be...
Let it be-come you! It means Stop seeking your higher self! It is seeking you! Stand still in your mind to calm the waters of your mind and then it shall find you, so you can ride those waves together!
your true self lies somewhere between your heart and your consciousness. It is called the heart consciousness,which is the creator, which is you!
The heart create the emotions and our mind evoke its purpose, from which we dream the life we live in order to imagine the nature of reality and finally remember love!

The highest Purpose of our mind is the ability to Forget! Go on and Forgive yourself!
There is no love in truth but there is truth in love!
Be authentic, nobody else can do it for you!

Re: Spiritual Hierarchies
How many kings, queens, wealthy bankers, etc. struggle with themselves from day to day?

How many celebrities, stars, famous politicians struggle with themselves?

Compare that to a orphaned kid in a third world country. Just being alive at 20 would be a triumph of will.
 Quoting: Jonny Blaze


not only has this un-metaphorical kid

the bankers, queens and kings
