A bit slow, but I finally posted my duality synchroblog. Lets see… May 1st deadline and it is May 19th – not too bad!

Hi Mark,

We’ll be sure to include on the list for the next synchroblog.

It’s thrilling to know you are contributing to our youth’s perspective in such a way.

Even better that you have the luxury of seeing first-hand through young eyes how symbolism can open up new worlds of thought and experience.

Jaiho!
A.

I will certainly do the June synchroblog. Thanks for your compliment on my blog.
I teach high school English, usually the lower levels, and symbolism is one of the greatest things to teach them. Once they get it, they are all excited about this new world they have found. Of course some are frustrated because now when they watch MTV or a movie, they see symbols and are thus thinking about “school stuff” on the weekend.

Hi Donna,
Indeed you did leave me a comment about your post, but for some reason it got bunged up in my spaminator. We’re all straight now. Thanks!
Blessings,
A.

Hi Mark!

It’s never too late!!!

I’ll link right to your post if you still want to write on the synchroblog subject. I’ll notify the other participants of your participation too.

Join in – the beauty of the bloggers within our genre is that we’re comprised of amazingly open-minded folks who understand that opportunity for evolution never revolves on a timed schedule

So feel free to play along, and I’ll be sure to get you included on June’s synchroblog!

BTW: Your blog is great!

Namaste,

I missed it! Just found your blog after seeing the synchroblog on another site. I would love to be a part next time. I have a mythology blog that takes a simple view of mythology and focuses mostly on connections to today.

I like what I have seen on your blog.

I'm pretty sure I left a note to see my synchroblog entry, but I can't find it. Ah well. Here I am again. I did my article on archetypes in duality (click here), which if you think about it, is about symbolism, too ... D~

Thanks for the invitation.
This is a great topic and one that emerges for me quite a bit. It seems to represent a very Western perspective…it is also reflected in the differences between the right and left brain. I just saw a video by a neuroanatomist who had a stroke that illustrated the very global perspective of the right brain, the state of mind that we hope to reach meditatively.
So many of our power imbalances are couched in the dualistic self and other and can only be deconstructed by reconceptualizing, of breaking free from dualistic thinking.
I will read the others’ responses with interest and hope you will think of me for the next time.
