A Conversation with Patrick Harpur

[@Timmerrr23]

I just found your channel or it found me rather. Curiously, I just found Patrick's book Mercurius. I became a Blake fan after a spiritual experience after a stroke amongst many other things related to the source from which his art comes. I just want to say thank you for your work and I'm sure I will enjoy many of your videos. I will pass this happenstance along to those of similar interests.

Thank you Patrick for your wonderful books. I love your moving our perspective from consciousness to imagination, as it rather gives us a hands on response in it's use. I would like to make a comment about the experience of the journey of Soul. So many of us have been through, or are in, " the valley of the shadow" For, it seems, we are in the death throes of a dying culture. I would have liked to have heard more of that. The internet has connected many to this process, this making the journey less lonely. Synchronicity as a conduit to the imagination is the focus of insight open discussion with a psychiatrist Bernard Bietmann. He has written on the power of synchronicity to move us in the direction of, well at least, the Imaginal and it's role on psychotherapy. That is releasing us from neuroses to participation. Recently he interviewed Rick Tarnas, some pearls there. So thanks again all of you.

I think you guys should look into the works of Rudolf Steiner

I'm going to- a quick Google search makes me think of Wordsworth w/ the 3 phases in life- this podcast discusses this idea of child like imagination being lost for a while, but remained with greater depth. I believe it's "Intimations of immortality"
