She is the symbol of his wholeness, his kingdom, and his completed self. The unwavering goal that guides his entire path. The Odyssey itself is the “magical mythical path” of trials, purification, and transformation required to unite […]

Rapture In General Terms

Rapture In General Terms, In general terms Rapture is a state of intense joy or delight, of being completely captivated and overwhelmed, by religious and or sexual emotion. The powerful link between sexual and religious rapture is the human desire to transcend the self. Both experiences offer a temporary escape from the limitations of individual existence—the isolation of being a single self in a vast world. Whether through the intimate connection with another person or the overwhelming connection with the divine, the result is a similar psychological state: Ecstasy (from Greek ekstasis, meaning “to stand outside oneself”). Bliss and overwhelming joy. Loss of […]

This is How the Devil Talks

This is How the Devil Talks Devil Talk. Let me talk over your left shoulder This is how the Devil talks, a concept presented in the painting “Temptation Let Me Talk Over Your Left Shoulder”.
