dear david, you wrote:
<Alien abduction stories are fascinating to me on the grounds
that they must be coming from the mythos, but they're so contemporarty
in their imagery. So many folks have reported it that it seems like it
must be a powerful and important part of the mythos. Something
unconscious is knocking on the door of consciousness and wants to be let
in.

david, what interpretation could be given to these abduction/UFO stories? i
liked the way you interpreted the myths of gods being born from mortals.
have you come across any interpretation on those?
could it be related to our outer space ventures? and if the mythos springs
from the collective are we perhaps getting ready for a future encounter?
i know you define the collective unconscious as being a product of our
biology, but i always thought of it as more than that. that is why i
intuited that Zen, the collective unconscious, and what Nietzsche called the
Dyonisian principle, and now Pirsig calls Dynamic Quality are one and the
same. if so, and that is a big if, could it be guiding the species towards
something?
