Living Myth Podcast 493 - Following Pathless Paths

This episode of Living Myth begins with the idea that each person has a unique story that seeks to unfold from within their soul. If a person is lucky or adventurous or devoted, they will typically find a path that aligns with their inside story. If they follow that path far enough, they will come to a place where there are no footsteps and the only way forward involves what is called the pathless path. Taking up the notion of a pathless path, Michael Meade follows the trail that leads to an array of dynamic energies that include various kinds of vision quests, the nature of being a wounded healer and variations of shamanic initiations. Eventually, the pathless path leads to the ancient idea of the Outsider, which turns out to be the archetypal image for people who become capable of receiving direct messages from the otherworld of great imagination and inspired spirit. The surprising trail of the pathless path eventually reveals that the knowledge, wisdom and healing energies missing in modern life can only enter the world through those who connect to the archetype of the outsider. ---------- The complete archive of Living Myth Podcasts is available at: PATREON:   / livingmyth   SUPPORT: https://mosaicvoices.org/donate Your donation supports the creative work of Michael Meade, Living Myth and Mosaic Voices, enabling us to bring the timeless medicine of myth and the healing power of stories to the essential work of renewing human culture and restoring the balance of nature.
