Now administering third eye drops. I love Tillman's idea that there are real beings in the world and there are real beings in you.

And then if you develop the sensibility for it, you turn around and you see what

Jung did with the Red Book.

And this of course is the world of many artists and poets.

I'm still working on how to think about, talk about, and then how to experience a variety of kinds of realities

where the, whether they're inside or outside is no longer the primary

distinguishing category. We are the only culture I know of that doesn't simply presume that there's a correspondence

And that is the reason that Hillman's neoplatonic worldview

and Corban's Islamo Christian Judeo worldview seems to hang together in such a networky way. It's the same thing that you find in alchemy. It's because there are

analogies everywhere.

Welcome back to the transmission, my friends.

There is a phrase I've used probably too many times in the mind-mel at this point.

Not the one about dipping your wonder nuggets or clenching your cheeks or whatever.

Mundus Imaginallis, a Latin phrase that points to this idea that there is an imaginal realm, an imaginal world that, though different, is very real in its own whimsical,opoetic visionary way.

So yeah, I love that phrase, and I first heard it used by Jung,

just assumed that that's where it came from,

but it turns out it's actually coined by Henri Corbonne, a really brilliant author and scholar and friend of Jung's, who was a mythopoeetic genius in his own right.

I'm really just starting to dive into his work and it turns out

Corbonne also inspired another of my biggest influences James Hillman,

psychologist, student of Jung's author and founder of archetypal psychology.

And that a wizarding triad leads me to our fantastic guest in this mind-mel, Dr. Tom Cheetham. He is just a brilliant mercurial man who is like perfectly
