No wonder studying mythologies are great for
the comprehension of ourselves. They can fed us with such deep content. They
often offer the very wise messages for us, and it’s one of the reasons I want
to string myself into a mythological sort of story, because I want to do
something like a reverse engineering with it.
One of the last impacting lessons I’ve taken
from studying mythologies is the duality and the eternal cycle between creation
and destruction. The interesting thing for me is that they have a god of
destruction, called Shiva, but it isn’t a demonized creature like our western
mythologies would have it credited. Instead, it’s just the part of the cycle of
life needed for maintain life working. Only destruction is as much prejudicial
as only creation. Sole creation leads to chaos.
It’s a great lesson, and something I need to
practice doing. Just destroy things a little bit. Indeed, too much creation and
too many parallel possibilities is making my mind feel really chaos for sure.
This hinduist principle of destruction for
renovation and order feels each time more relevant to me, the more I think
about it. Should’ve realized this sooner, and maybe this should be kept in my
golden box of my most important lessons and principles.
