THINGS TO READ:

BLOOMSDAY by James Joyce.

-Leopold Bloom reminds me of Francisco D'anconia.... but who's John Galt anyway?

THE MYTH OF THE ETERNAL RETURN
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternal_Return_(Eliade)
-all arrangements of matter in the universe must necessarily recur if given an infinite amount of time.

-Very interesting segment about power of origins and how knowing somethings origin gives the knower power.

-"Man's life only has value to the extent that it conforms to the patterns of the mythical age."

Does this bring to mind Adam and Eve inside a Garden (without the evil).

Sacred Time wouldn't have any correlation to a certain side of our mind that lets out Auditory Hallucinations now would it?

(on a side note what about the idea that instead of the myth of the eternal return, what about an eternal fall? What if what we're working up to we've already been too? What if we once had worked up the intelligince to discuss with other "spirits" or "gods" that is briefly explained off by Jaynes as an audiotry hullicination? What if it is that we're truly a fallen race that has keeps plummeting from "grace" or "some higher state of being" because we cannot universally handle it?)
