You really nailed this topic. The only thing I would like to emphasize is that the Eleusinian Mysteries went on for centuries and people from all over the Ancient world traveled to participate in them.
This sounds less like LSD and more like a DMT trip. I also lost my fear of death on a DMT trip and I met many incredible entities during the journey including an angel. I wouldn’t recommend someone trying to do it a second time though Lol! Terrence McKenna said if you don’t die you’re missing the point, I agree completely.
Hi! I am interested in a few questions about the Eleusinian mysteries. Question 1: At what time of the year did Hades kidnap Cora? In the myth of Demeter it is mentioned that Cora was picking flowers in the meadow and her attention was attracted by a daffodil. But these are spring flowers! So the kidnapping could have taken place in the spring? So, Cora (Persephone) had to spend her time in Hades in summer? That is, the burial of grain in the fall in the ground is not Persephone's sending to Hades, but on the contrary - reunion with her mother Demeter? Question 2: What could the Anaktoron, a small structure inside the temple of Telesterion, have been? Could it have been an oven for baking bread? After all, there are mentions that a hole was made in the roof of Telesterion for the flames to escape. Besides, the story of Demeter's baking of the little prince Demophontes is remarkable. The goddess wanted to make him immortal, but his mother interrupted the sacrament. So, Demeter chose another, more difficult way for mankind - through farming, growing grains and baking bread. Through the eating of bread there is communion with the body of the goddess Persephone. And those of mortals who have tasted the god become immortal. Question 3: Who is Brimos? During the final scenes of the mysteries, the Hierophant exclaims: "Brimo has given birth to Brimos!". That is, the Mighty One gave birth to the Mighty One. Some researchers believe that it could be Dionysus. But as a proof of the miracle to the participants of the mysteries the hierophant presented the wheat ear! How can it be connected with Dionysus?
@@nexusvoid314 Phew. I love your videos, man. The second best Jungian commentary on UA-cam; perhaps consider focussing more on lobsters? Just joking, you are my number 1 UA-camr. Thank you so much for the amazing content :-)
