The awesome triumph of the Warrior’s
Quest vision
The triumph of the Warrior’s Quest
vision is grounded in its four foundational themes:
1) sourced in an emotion of dreadful
fear,
2) identifies and names the Other as Intimate Enemy,
3) seeks to annihilate the goddess
and/or the feminine and
4) expresses its heartfelt values through a self-fulfilling apocalyptic
story of self-annihilation
For numerous millennia—an awesome
span!—the Warrior’s Quest vision
has bent every major Big Story its way. The four common themes
are so embedded in the collective human psyche
that you hear them spoken of as “part of human nature,”
“that’s just the way things are,” and
“that’s the way the world works.” Or,
“that’s God’s revelation.”
There is a truth here that must not
be trivialized nor dodged.
The Warrior’s Quest is
the way
you,
I, that
person over there,
everyone on the Living Earth imagines!
It is a vision anchored in
the depths of our being, individual and communal. We
dream its dreams every night. We relive
its stories every day—mass media: TV, movies, the Internet repeat,
reinforce, replicate and reverence the images, words,
heartfelt actions, values and “spirituality” of the Warrior’s
Quest. At a 24/7/365 pace its high priests and messengers
preach and speak in churches, temples, synagogues, on campuses, street
corners, camp grounds, via satellite and through every
communication outlet.
Continue—Triumph
