Magic, Myth, and Religion: The Origins of Myth and Ritual Expression

The most powerful thing in the world is the symbol. Through symbols we create stories and myths that bring people to action. Where did the original symbols regarding an afterlife come from? How are myths built and why are they so powerful? The spiritual world is a fascinating place even more so today in that it is in direct competition with the metaphysics of science, especially physics, with numerous theories surrounding the origin of the universe and life. We read the universe came from nothing, we hear of singularities, multiverses, worm holes, string theory, metaphysics at its best. What we think of as the spiritual world may be more than something that springs from our imaginings, of a world beyond that can be glimpsed and perhaps manipulated if we perform the rituals correctly. As the reader will appreciate the spiritual world and quantum physics have a lot in common. Join Dr. Rush as he takes you through the world of imagination, of magic, shamanism, and worlds beyond.
