Ancient Greek Wisdom
Ancient Greek Gods: Asclepius
Asclepius took part in the Argonautic Campaign and treated the wounded with euphemisms and medicines. He was considered an auspicious and all-powerful savior of the people, in addition to having the power to resurrect the dead.
The revival of the ancient god Pan in the age of the pandemic
A God who loves music, sometimes with unbridled eroticism and sometimes tender and kind, who nevertheless does not cease sometimes to spread panic.
Why would we be interested in a god like Panas in our time? Deity of forests and pastoral life how could his presence be associated with the man of the urbanized society of modern times?
The Issue of God's Existence is a Matter of Human Interpretation
"Is there a God after all?" A clear question, which states that there have been a myriad of opinions ‒ and I'm not only referring to those of the distinguished friends Petros Papapostolos and Panagiotis Asimeonoglou - since the dawn of human thought. Only that for the ancient man the specific question did not raise any doubt, but had only one strong answer – and this is certainly affirmative!
But what changed and we went from the self-evident "yes" to modern questioning? I believe that the difference lies solely in the way of interpretation.
What Is God?
We are in God and God is in us (panentheism). He is there when we suffer and he suffers with us, when we rejoice and he rejoices with us, when we fall in love and he falls in love with us.
After all, is there a God?
After all, is there a God? Clearly, the answer to this question cannot be limited to a "Yes" or "No". And this is because the subject around which we revolve is not an empirical object. Nevertheless, people throughout the ages have asked this question and have sought divinity in various ways: They have looked to ancient sources, followed enlightened teachers, believed in various stories, embraced doctrines, and followed various Paths that are heralded as leading to "theosis."
Ancient Greek Gods: Panas
Horned with cloven hooves, a goat's tail and ears but also a human form, the Arcadian god Pan, son of Hermes and a Nymph - Dryope or according to other mythical traditions Orsinoe, Callisto etc. -, travels a long way from antiquity to the present day, making its presence felt through myths and literature, as an archetypal symbol of the reproductive instinct and fertility.
Trapped in the mirror of ourselves
There are times in our lives when we feel stuck in time, even as we try to live in the present and run with anticipation for the future that awaits us. But our body and mind remain stagnant in the past, locking ourselves in as we cling and immerse ourselves in our own thoughts.
