Podcasts about Gilgamesh

Shadi Al-Atallah's newest solo show, Fistfight, begins with an excerpt from The Epic of Gilgamesh and seems apt to start right here: “huge arms gripped huge arms, foreheads crashed like wild bulls, the two men staggered, they pitched against houses, the doorposts trembled, the outer walls shook, they careened through the streets, they grappled each other, limbs intertwined, each huge body straining to break free from the other's embrace. Finally, Gilgamesh threw the wild man and with his right knee pinned him to the ground. His anger left him. He turned away. The contest was over.” Having met Shadi a few times in London over the last few years, there is a balance between rage, humor, anger, a grip, a pulse and passion their works. The struggles seen in Gilgamesh aren't unlike the struggles we see today, whether it be space, identity, movement or just plain confrontation. Shadi is working with the idea of controlled violence, and I get the sense that they are aware of what the world around them is presenting, the conflicts both internal and external, and finds that through making art, the confronations themselves are just a bit more controlled, more theatric, more epic. As Guts Gallery notes, "Throughout Fistfight, Al-Atallah explores the rigid distinction between the spaces where violence is permitted and the spaces in which it is not."  This interests me as a writer and observer of art, and has always interested me in terms of Shadi's brilliant works on canvas here (and in the past, works on paper). They are controlling historical events, historical sentiments, the past we bring with us into the future. In Fistfight, the conflict feels rather internal, and the feelings individual, and yet there is a universality that is ever so present. On this episode of Radio Juxtapoz, Doug Gillen speaks with Shadi on the subject of Fistfight, their evolotion in the works and the move from the Middle East to London. —Evan PriccoSubscribe to the Radio Juxtapoz podcast The Radio Juxtapoz podcast is hosted by FIFTH WALL TV's Doug Gillen and Juxtapoz editor, Evan Pricco.

Episode Synopsis: Were the terrorist attacks of September 11th, 2001 the work of foreign enemies set against the American way of life or was this event part of a mega occult-ritual-offering; powerful enough to compel supernatural forces to do the nation's bidding? We talk about this and much more, including: What effect did the real loss of life have on the survivors? Who and how many people really suffered because of 9/11 and the after effects? How did the events unfold on that fateful date? What was Building 7 and why did it fall? How do controlled demotions work? Where there other bombs that went off? Was there Israeli involvement with the 9/11 attacks? What is NORAD and what was it doing on the morning of September 11th, 2001? Were there any Bush family connections that don't "jive" with the official narrative? What was the spiritual significance of the terror attacks? Who was Gilgamesh and is there a connection between him and 9/11?

Greg responds to questions about why God put the tree of the knowledge of good and evil in the garden of Eden, taking a job at a Quaker school, the implications of all biological men starting off like females in the womb, and whether the stories of Gilgamesh and Horus are evidence the Bible isn't true.   Topics: Why did God put the tree of the knowledge of good and evil in the garden of Eden, giving Adam and Eve a chance to betray him? (03:00) What should I take into account in terms of theology and practical issues as I consider a job opportunity to work at a Quaker school? (12:00) How would you respond to the claims that 1) all biological men start off as females in the womb, so therefore all men are actually trans, and 2) if sex is not determined until later, then life doesn't really begin at conception? (21:00) Are the parallels between the Bible and the stories of Gilgamesh and Horus evidence the Bible is not the true book?

At a moment when the world has tipped over into irreversible violence and corruption, a divinity contacts a righteous man. The man is directed to build a giant ship and bring aboard animals, who will spend an indefinite amount of time living, sleeping, and eating alongside Noah and his family. The rain begins to fall, and these survivors take refuge on the ark. After forty days, the survivors disembark and then have to figure out how to create a new settlement as the waters recede. This cryptic, elliptical ancient story has inspired theological commentary, architecture, and children's toys, giving us an abundance of metaphors and narratives to understand our past, present, and future climate crises. Our continuing attempts to critically examine the ark narrative and its long afterlife in our imagination is the subject of Jeffrey J. Cohen and Julian Yates's new book Noah's Arkive, just published by the University of Minnesota Press in 2023. Jeffrey Cohen is Dean of Humanities at the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at Arizona State University. Jeffrey's previous books include Stone: An Ecology of the Inhuman (University of Minnesota Press, 2015); Hybridity, Identity and Monstrosity in Medieval Britain: Of Difficult Middles (Palgrave, 2006); and Of Giants: Sex, Monsters, and the Middle Ages (University of Minnesota, 1999). Julian Yates is H. Fletcher Brown Professor of English and Material Culture at the University of Delaware. Julian's previous books include Of Sheep, Oranges, and Yeast: A Multispecies Impression (2017); and Error, Misuse, Failure: Object Lessons from the English Renaissance (2002), both from the University of Minnesota Press. More about the book: In Noah's Arkive (U Minnesota Press, 2023), Jeffrey J. Cohen and Julian Yates examine the long history of imagining endurance against climate catastrophe—as well as alternative ways of creating refuge. They trace how the elements of the flood narrative were elaborated in medieval and early modern art, text, and music, and now shape writing and thinking during the current age of anthropogenic climate change. Arguing that the biblical ark may well be the worst possible exemplar of human behavior, the chapters draw on a range of sources, from the Epic of Gilgamesh and Ovid's tale of Deucalion and Pyrrah, to speculative fiction, climate fiction, and stories and art dealing with environmental catastrophe. Noah's Arkive uncovers the startling afterlife of the Genesis narrative written from the perspective of Noah's wife and family, the animals on the ark, and those excluded and left behind to die. This book of recovered stories speaks eloquently to the ethical and political burdens of living through the Anthropocene. Following a climate change narrative across the millennia, Noah's Arkive surveys the long history of dwelling with the consequences of choosing only a few to survive in order to start the world over. It is an intriguing meditation on how the story of the ark can frame how we think about environmental catastrophe and refuge, conservation and exclusion, offering hope for a better future by heeding what we know from the past. John Yargo is Visiting Assistant Professor of Environmental Humanities at Boston College. He earned a PhD in English literature from the University of Massachusetts Amherst, specializing in the environmental humanities and early modern culture. In 2023, his dissertation won the J. Leeds Barroll Prize, given by the Shakespeare Association of America. His peer-reviewed articles have been published or are forthcoming in the Journal for Early Modern Culture Studies, Early Theatre, Studies in Philology, and Shakespeare Studies.

We're back! And we're taking a trip in the Rewind Time Machine to talk about two of the oldest goddesses in recorded history. Astarte and Ishtar both emerged out of Mesopotamia as goddesses of war, love, sex and fertility. Their influence would spread from the ancient Middle East to the Mediterranean and into Egypt, serving as the blueprint for several Greek, Roman and Egyptian gods. These ancient goddesses explore the duality of the divine feminine, as ferocious as they were sensual. Also in this episode is our very own “Reading Rainbow” segment where we regale you with tales from the Epic of Gilgamesh (cliff notes version) and read a short story about the origin of the dawn from Nikita Gill's “The Girl and The Goddess.” --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/difficultdamsels/support

#1 NYT best-selling author and spiritual teacher Mark Nepo joins “The Good Mood Show” once again to share insights from his highly anticipated new book Falling Down and Getting Up.  Mark has been named by Watkins as one of the 100 most spiritually influential living people. In this episode, he discusses how the essence of life is an evolution of falling down and getting up, each time with a little more wisdom. As Mark explains, we never reach an "arrived state" without problems, because that's not how life truly works. We can't bypass the challenges; we have to live through them.  You will learn how the strength of being alive comes from embracing our wholeness, being real, and being authentic.  Here are some power takeaways from today's conversation:  The mystery of life and how it works The importance of making amends Seeing things as they are The wisdom of being present The story of Gilgamesh [08:12] The Mystery of Life and How It Works In life, we often seek the good times and avoid the tough stuff, but that's not how life works. The strength of being alive comes from embracing its wholeness, being real, and authentic. We can't bypass the challenges; we have to live through them. It's like water - we can't just have hydrogen alone and call it water. Life is a mystery, and its wholeness requires us to support and journey together. We've always chased the ideal state without problems, but the truth is, there are no problems only in death. [10:38] The Power of Authenticity of Making Amends Pain and suffering are inherent in the cycle of life, according to Buddhist teachings. While unavoidable, we must learn to work with it. When we unintentionally hurt each other, it's often a mistake that can be rectified through sincere apologies and making amends. This process plays a crucial role in fostering intimacy and growth. However, there is also deliberate harm caused by evil, which stems from personal pain and avoidance of facing one's own issues. The courage to be authentic and face our own pain reduces violence in the world and allows us to support rather than harm one another.  [13:00] Seeing Things as They Are Being authentic requires us to embrace the challenging yet essential practice of seeing things as they truly are, rather than through the lens of our desires or the urge to escape. By facing reality head-on, we empower ourselves to navigate through obstacles and extend support to one another. When we acknowledge our mistakes and the harm we have caused, we can take the necessary steps to repair and prevent such incidents from recurring. Notable quotes: [09:00] The strength of being alive comes from its wholeness, and we can only access its wholeness by being real and authentic. [09:11] [11:59] The courage to be authentic by itself reduces violence in the world because then we help each other rather than hurt each other. [12:08] [17:46] If we are open-hearted, we are returned to life right where we are. [17:52] [18:08] When we are stopped, or we willingly stop, there's always a teacher nearby, always. And often, we run right past it.

Your hosts Dr. Dean Bertram and Jason McLean return to the audio-visual wing of the Mysterious Library. This week they check out another giant documentary - ANCIENT GIANTS OF NORTH AMERICA - from J. Michael Long. Old newspapers claim that gigantic human skeletons were once unearthed all across America. And many religious traditions and old historical sources claim that the earth was once populated by enormous humanoids. Has the evidence of these ancient beings been covered up in recent history? Moreover, do such cross-cultural tales of ancient malevolent giants support the Biblical narrative of the Nephilim? These are just some of the questions that your Mysterious Librarians will be digging in to during tonight's show.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4602609/advertisement

Two friends and academics recap classic literature and take it off its pedestal. In our forty-third episode, we go back to ancient epics and probably the earliest text we can cover on this show: the Epic of Gilgamesh (circa 2100-1200 BC). In this episode, Daniel finds religion, Abby repents her punning ways, we see a glorious return of MeasuringWorth, and our hosts make way for the real star of the show: semi-standardised cubits.Cover art © Catherine Wu.Episode Themes: Bach, 'Cello Suite No. 1 in G Major, VI. Gigue'; Baligh Hamdi 'Hobb Eih' on Arabic oud. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Prophecy Radio episode #93 discusses City of the Plague God by Sarwat Chadda ahead of the sequel's release, Fury of the Dragon Goddess before catching you up on all the latest Rick Riordan news, including what sort of Percy Jackson and the Olympians content we got from San Diego Comic-Con 2023. This week, we're also talking about The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid by tackling chapter 17, in which the Kanes end up in Paris and run into an old friend. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air weekly, and we keep our discussions PG-13. News and Updates (00:02:32) We're kicking off this week's news and updated by talking about SDCC. We had some boots on the ground at the convention and got a peek at what the campers were handing out. Next up, we talk in-depth about the new Percy Jackson and the Olympians character posters. Oh yeah, and there was even a flash mob! Don't forget that Fury of the Dragon Goddess comes out on August 1! Books of Wonder is hosting a virtual tour, and it's gonna be awesome. Read Riordan also posted an article about Lugal, the god of insanity. On June 27, Rick wrote a blog post talking about the Chalice of the Gods book tour. We go through all of the tour stops, plus the Boston Book Festival happening in October. Can Rick talk about the show on tour? We also think he'll be talking about his next project. Oh, and Karen will be at another stop! We also discuss whether we'll stop our The Red Pyramid discussion to talk about Chalice of the Gods. Don't forget to check out this Bookseller interview. City of the Plague God by Sarwat Chadda (00:23:38) Talking about this book has been a long time coming, and we're so glad to finally discuss it on the podcast! What's this book about? We talk about our overall feelings for the book and the writing. It's wild to think this was written before COVID. But don't worry, this book won't remind you too much of the pandemic. It's well worth reading the Foreword, if only to see what it was like to have Rick as a teacher. This book teaches us a lot about racism, being a hero, dealing with grief, and fighting for your home. It seems only right to kick off the character section by talking about Sikander Aziz. All work and no play makes Sik a tired boy. There's so much to love about Sik, but especially his compassion for other people. We draw some parallels between Sik and Samirah/Magnus Chase. Daoud seems only skin-deep at first glance, but we both loved him from the beginning. We also loved Belet, who has a killer roundhouse kick. She's so intense, but her and Sik balance each other out perfectly. SO. MANY. CATS. Kasusu is an amazing sword, and it reminds us a lot of another magical weapon from one of Rick's books. What's it like being both the goddess of love AND war? Ishtar is both amazing and terrifying. And then there's Nergal. Sure, he's the antagonist in this book, but he's also a necessary balance to the circle of life. The spoiler section starts at 01:04:05. If you're used to handling New Yorkers in the morning, you can definitely take on a pack of demons. SURPRISE, Sikander is immortal. We're a little smitten with Gilgamesh, not gonna lie. How do you accidentally end up in the afterlife? By taking the wrong train, of course. The scenes between Sik and Mo were incredible but also heartbreaking. THE BAGHDAD SAUCE. It wasn't easy to get the flower that grants immortality, but they did it. We learn something amazing about Mo and Daoud. Nergal is defeated in the most spectacular way. The end of the book gives us some interesting final moments between Sik and Daoud, his family, and even Belet. We're so happy City of the Plague God gets a sequel in Fury of the Dragon Goddess. It's fun to read the author's note, and Sarwat has some wonderful things to tell us about this book and about Rick Riordan. Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid discussion (01:35:18) This week, we're discussing The Red Pyramid chapter 17! Carter becomes a chicken again, and we talk about what this dream could mean. Carter gets in trouble with Zia, but it informs us a lot about her AND about him. Gods, her story is tragic, and now we're sad. Did someone steal Zia's memories? It's nice that Carter still remembers his mom. Are Carter and Zia going on a date!? Okay, it's time to leave and go to…Paris!? Thank the gods for Bast. Feedback (01:54:08) We got some wonderful mentions on Threads, and several people remind us how much they miss our old podcast, Book Hype. Did you know you can leave reviews for podcasts on Audible!? Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 94, in which we'll discuss Fury of the Dragon Goddess by Sarwat Chadda, before jumping into an interview with the man himself!

The ancient city of Ur, located in modern-day Iraq, holds a unique place in human history as one of the oldest known urban centers in the world. This ancient metropolis was not only a thriving city with remarkable architectural achievements but also a focal point of myth and legend, particularly concerning the Anunnaki, a group of divine beings in Mesopotamian mythology. The legends of the city of Ur and the fall of the Anunnaki have intrigued historians, archaeologists, and enthusiasts for centuries, providing a glimpse into the rich tapestry of human imagination and the complex relationship between humanity and the divine. #anunnaki #gaia #sumerian The city of Ur rose to prominence around 3800 BCE in the region known as Sumer, nestled between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. It flourished during the Early Bronze Age and became a significant center of trade, culture, and religion. The Sumerians, who inhabited Ur and the surrounding areas, left behind a wealth of cuneiform texts that detailed their beliefs and myths, many of which revolved around the Anunnaki. The Anunnaki were considered a pantheon of deities, often described as "those who came down from the heavens" or "the princely offspring." These divine beings were believed to be intermediaries between gods and humans, possessing immense powers and wisdom. According to Sumerian mythology, the Anunnaki were responsible for shaping humanity and played a crucial role in human affairs. One of the most famous legends related to Ur and the Anunnaki is the myth of the great flood. This tale bears striking similarities to the biblical story of Noah's Ark. In the Sumerian version, the gods, displeased with humankind's noise and disturbances, decided to destroy humanity with a devastating flood. However, the god Enki, who favored humanity, warned a mortal man named Ziusudra, advising him to build a massive boat to save himself, his family, and the animals from the impending deluge. This myth is thought to be one of the earliest accounts of a flood narrative in human history. The legends of Ur also include stories of the divine council's power struggles and rivalries, leading to the rise and fall of various Anunnaki gods. Among the most famous of these is the epic of Gilgamesh, an ancient poem that narrates the adventures of a heroic king who seeks immortality after the death of his friend Enkidu. In this epic, the goddess Ishtar's advances are rejected by Gilgamesh, and she sends the Bull of Heaven to punish him. Gilgamesh and his companion, Enkidu, slay the bull, further angering the gods. As a consequence, Enkidu tragically dies, and Gilgamesh embarks on a journey to discover the secret of eternal life. The epic delves into themes of mortality, friendship, and the struggle for meaning in the face of divine authority. The fall of the Anunnaki is a subject of various interpretations. Some scholars suggest that the fall of these divine beings was symbolic of the decline of the Sumerian civilization itself. As other cultures and empires rose to power, Sumer began to lose its dominance in the region, leading to a gradual fading of its religious influence. As political and social dynamics shifted, the importance of the Anunnaki in the religious beliefs of the people might have waned, contributing to their eventual decline in mythological significance. Another interpretation suggests that the fall of the Anunnaki can be connected to changes in religious beliefs over time. As different groups conquered and assimilated with the Sumerians, their pantheon of gods evolved, and certain deities might have been assimilated or replaced by others from different cultures. Despite their eventual decline in religious prominence, the legends of Ur and the Anunnaki have left an indelible mark on human history. They continue to captivate the imagination of people worldwide, offering insights into the beliefs, values, and aspirations of ancient civilizations. Moreover, the legends of Ur demonstrate the enduring human fascination with divine beings, immortality, and the eternal struggle to comprehend the mysteries of the cosmos. The city of Ur and its legends concerning the Anunnaki provide us with a remarkable glimpse into the cultural and religious heritage of the ancient Sumerians. These myths have inspired countless generations and continue to spark curiosity and interest in the origins of human civilization. Through the stories of Ur, we are reminded of the profound connections between myth, history, and the enduring quest for understanding the divine and the world around us.

Stelios, Carl, and Beau discuss the legendary exploits of the Sumerian hero Gilgamesh, and uncover the deeper meaning of the oldest story in the world.

Roughly 3700 years ago, in the fertile crescent of mesopotamia, the first Western epic was composed. The character Gilgamesh, and his friend Enkidu, have many adventures battling mighty beasts. But when Enkidu dies, Gilgamesh is thrown into, what we would today call, an existential crisis, as Gilgamesh grapples with themes such as friendship and love, mortality, free will and fate, and the search for meaning. Since that time, literature has been consistently used as a vehicle to explore philosophical themes, whether that be the ancient Greeks through the Iliad and the Odyssey, or the modern existentialist.  But why is this? Aren't philosophical treatises sufficient? There's something about literature as an alternative avenue to philosophical thought. Rather than a treatise with syllogisms, points and counterpoints, thought experiments and the like, great literature allows us to contemplate some of life's greatest mysteries with a little life breathed into it through colorful characters, allegorical tales, intricate metaphors, or captivating dialogues. Through this vehicle, philosophical literature challenges readers to ponder the nature of truth, the meaning of happiness, and the complexities of human relationships.But can literature be considered philosophy? Does it do a disservice to the philosophical enterprise? And ultimately, what is its value to human experience? Join us as we explore the connection between philosophy and literature. Episode ResourcesThe Myth of Sisyphus - Albert Camus The Stranger - Albert CamusUtopia - Thomas MooreThe Divine Comedy (Inferno) - DanteSilence - Shusaku EndoHamlet - ShakespeareThe Decameron - Giovanni BoccaccioThe Brothers Karamazov - Fyodor Dostoyevsky Lord of the Rings - J.

The ancient world is replete with tales of enigmatic civilizations, mysterious beings, and epic legends. Among these narratives, the Amorites, the Biblical Anunnaki, and the Giant Sumerians in Bashan hold a prominent place. These fascinating accounts intertwine history, mythology, and biblical references, sparking curiosity and debate among researchers and enthusiasts. In this blog, we will delve into the stories surrounding these ancient peoples and explore the possible connections between them. The Amorites: The Amorites were a Semitic people who rose to prominence during the third millennium BCE. They established several powerful kingdoms in Mesopotamia and the Levant, making a significant impact on the region's history. The Amorites were known for their advanced knowledge in various fields, including agriculture, trade, and governance. They played a crucial role in shaping the political landscape of ancient Mesopotamia, often clashing with other powerful empires such as Babylon and Assyria. The Biblical Anunnaki: The term "Anunnaki" appears in ancient Mesopotamian texts, most notably in Sumerian and Akkadian myths. In the context of these narratives, the Anunnaki were divine beings who supposedly came from the heavens to interact with humanity. In some interpretations, they were regarded as gods or extraterrestrial beings with advanced knowledge and technology. The Anunnaki feature prominently in the epic of Gilgamesh and other Sumerian myths, where they play roles in creating mankind and influencing human affairs. The Giants of Bashan: The mention of giants in the ancient world has captured the imagination of many. In the biblical account, particularly in the book of Deuteronomy, the region of Bashan, located east of the Jordan River, is associated with the existence of giants. The giant kings Og and Sihon ruled over this territory, and their enormous stature became legendary. According to biblical texts, the Israelites conquered Bashan and overcame these formidable opponents. Possible Connections and Interpretations: While exploring the stories of the Amorites, the Biblical Anunnaki, and the Giants of Bashan, intriguing connections and interpretations emerge. Some researchers speculate that there might be a link between the Amorites and the biblical Nephilim, often described as a race of giants. The association arises from similar narratives and the occurrence of giant-like figures in both the Amorite and biblical accounts. Moreover, the concept of divine beings descending from the heavens aligns with the Anunnaki mythology. Some propose that the Anunnaki could be connected to the Amorites, possibly representing an advanced civilization that influenced the development of the Amorite culture and other ancient societies. The stories of the Amorites, the Biblical Anunnaki, and the Giant Sumerians in Bashan continue to intrigue researchers and enthusiasts alike. While historical records and archaeological evidence shed light on these ancient civilizations, the mythology and biblical accounts offer additional layers of fascination and speculation. Exploring the possible connections between these narratives opens up new avenues for understanding the ancient world and the interactions between human beings and divine or extraterrestrial entities. As our quest for knowledge continues, the stories of these ancient peoples will undoubtedly remain captivating, stimulating further exploration and interpretation.

Your hosts Dr. Dean Bertram and Jason McLean return to the audio-visual wing of the Mysterious Library. This week they check out the fascinating documentary A RACE OF GIANTS, from filmmaker J. Michael Long. The film asks: Legends and history speak of giants that once walked the earth, so where did the evidence for these beings go? Did the Smithsonian Institution cover it up? Moreover, what do cross-cultural tales of ancient malevolent giants have to do with the Biblical narrative of the Nephilim? These are just some of the questions that your Mysterious Librarians will be digging in to during tonight's show.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4602609/advertisement

In the Epic of Gilgamesh, written over 4,000 years ago, Enkidu, the great friend of the demigod Gilgamesh, dies. Afraid of death, Gilgamesh asks the sage Utnapishtim, the only survivor of the Great Flood, about the secret to immortality. Utnapishtim gives Gilgamesh a number of tasks, all of which he fails. But that was the point. Gilgamesh learned that immortality is beyond his grasp and returns to Uruk to live out the rest of his life as king.  The first emperor of China was Shi Huang Di. Buried in a tomb decorated with the famous terracotta soldiers, he also feared death and called on Chinese alchemists to create an elixir that would allow him to live forever. The alchemists believed they could make immortality possible through a perfect balance of the five elements: water, wood, fire, earth, and metal. Unfortunately for the emperor, the elixir contained mercury (because it is both a liquid and a metal), which likely contributed to the emperor's death.  Attempts to achieve immortality have continued (and continued to fail) right up to our own time. Medieval European alchemists believed they could produce “the philosopher's stone,” which would perfect the imperfect, turning lead into gold and making mortal life immortal. Enlightenment thinkers of the late 18th century rejected the mysticism of alchemy but continued to speculate about the means to attain physical immortality. Mary Shelley's Frankenstein was written as a cautionary tale about scientific hubris, in response to the more modern attempts of medicine and biology to preserve, extend, and improve life.  Today, the quest for immortality continues. Through cryogenics, freshly deceased persons or animals are frozen, their blood replaced with “medical grade antifreeze” to prevent ice crystals from destroying cells. So, the idea goes, once medical technology is able to heal whatever caused their deaths, these creatures can be thawed, healed, and restored to life, possibly with additional enhancements. This approach assumes, among other things, that life and memory can be repaired if the body is repaired and the heart restarted.   In other words, life is seen in purely mechanical terms. This is an equal and opposite error to those pursuing immortality through cybertechnologies, believing that if our consciousness can be downloaded into computers, we can continue to exist as a sort of ghost in a machine. In this techno-gnosticism, our bodies are optional and not a necessary part of life. In this way of thinking, we are our minds, and our minds are nothing more than sophisticated software that can be downloaded into a computer, machine, or perhaps a new robotic body.  Other modern attempts at the Fountain of Youth—such as nutritional strategies, supplements, alternative medical practices, and gene-editing technologies like CRISPR—do not seek as much to avoid death as to extend life. These range from becoming more serious about healthy living to more extreme alternatives. A number of billionaires have been investing in research into life extension, including Sam Altman of OpenAI, Jeff Bezos, Google co-founder Larry Page, and Brian Armstrong of Coinbase. Some believe that our medical technologies will eventually reach a state of “Longevity Escape Velocity,” in which advances are increasing lifespans faster than the years go by, therefore bringing us to the point of immortality.  Despite our long history of failed attempts to live forever, many of which caused more harm than good, scientific hubris remains a temptation almost impossible to avoid. But we should take Mary Shelley's warnings seriously. Some of these longevity experiments will be interesting and ultimately harmless. Some may even help. Others, such as those involving gene-editing technology, will leave their own monsters waiting in the shadows, and it is unlikely, if history is any indication, that we will be able to see them coming.  A more basic problem is trying to defeat death while thinking it is only a material problem to be solved. No latter-day elixir can satisfy our fear of death, which is a physical consequence of metaphysical realities. What ancient emperors and modern tech barons so desperately seek is exactly what's offered in Christ: His eternal life exchanged for our mortal, sinful life. This exchange does not come from a laboratory bottle filled with who knows what, but from an empty tomb. Ultimately, because He defeated death, our bodies will be perfected beyond what even the most optimistic biohacker could dream.   Yes, death remains an enemy. But it is a defeated foe, and all who are in Christ will ultimately see its defeat when we are resurrected to life eternal. This is the truth behind what are reported to have been Tim Keller's final words: “There is no downside for me leaving, not in the slightest.” And Dietrich Bonhoeffer's, as well: “This is the end—for me, the beginning of life.”  This Breakpoint was co-authored by Dr. Glenn Sunshine.

My guest today is someone I consider an important teacher in my life, Stephen Jenkinson. He is a cultural activist, he is a farmer and a philosopher. He is the author of a number of books including some that are my favourites. He presents life as it really is and because he has worked with the dying for so many years, he attempts to anchor us in the reality of where we are. There isn't a time that we need this more.This might not appear to be a very cheerful conversation but if you understand my work, I expect to have one of the most cheerful conversations about the reality of where we are today. This is definitely an important moment in my life when I meet one of my teachers.  Stephen Jenkinson is an author, a farmer and a philosopher. He has years of experience as a palliative care worker and is a former programme director at a major Canadian hospital. Stephen has Master's degrees from Harvard University (Theology) and the University of Toronto (Social Work). He is also a co-founder of The Orphan Wisdom School. Listen as we discuss:03:30 - Tie your camel 05:00 - The internal shift 07:00 - A Wondering Dervish 08:00 - A useful compromise 11:30 - The human struggle 15:00 - Is it too late? 16:30 - Finding peace 22:00 - The answer is asking the right question 26:30 - Hunger for money 30:00 - What the soul needs 33:00 - The spirit work 37:30 - From awful to awe 40:00 - A drop of the Divine in us all 42:00 - Gilgamesh 45:30 - More God than you need?  Find out more about Stephen Jenkinson and his work here.YouTube: @mogawdatofficialInstagram: @mo_gawdatFacebook: @mo.gawdat.officialTwitter: @mgawdatLinkedIn: /in/mogawdatWebsite: mogawdat.comDon't forget to subscribe to Slo Mo for new episodes every Saturday.

On this episode of Unsupervised Learning Razib hosts Ross Douthat, author of Bad Religion: How We Became a Nation of Heretics, Privilege: Harvard and the Education of the Ruling Class, Grand New Party: How Republicans Can Win the Working Class and Save the American Dream, The Deep Places: A Memoir of Illness and Discovery and The Decadent Society: How We Became the Victims of Our Own Success. A columnist at The New York Times, often on political and social topics, Douthat also reviews movies for National Review. Today Razib talks to him about a topic that is a bit off the beaten path: why is genre fiction, and fantasy literature, still relevant today, and how, in the last generation, did it break out of its cultural ghetto? First, Douthat addresses the massive role that J. R. R. Tolkien's works have had on the field, how most of modern fantasy is either an imitation of his works or a response to them, and the creative limitations that that circumstance imposes. Razib and Douthat then discuss the various shifts in the genre style over the last 20 years, toward a more gritty and morally ambiguous style exemplified by George R. R. Martin, and the cultural breakthrough of Game of Thrones in the 2010's. Douthat avers that in some ways genre has come into its own, with the decline in the cultural status of realistic fiction and drama, and the ascension of “comic book movies.” While Razib believes that Marvel films are arguably fantasy, Douthat disagrees, believing their contemporary settings disqualify them. They also address whether fantasy is actually simply the channeling of premodern narrative styles that go back to the Epic of Gilgamesh or the Iliad. They address the somewhat exceptional success of Game of Thrones on television and the failure of Amazon's Rings of Power and The Wheel of Time. Finally, Douthat talks about his unpublished fantasy novel, The Falcon's Children.

Throughout the Hebrew Bible we've found important sections that were inspired by older myths and stories. From the opening chapter of Genesis drawing upon the Babylonian creation epic to Jacob's struggle with the mysterious figure by the river taking details from the Epic of Gilgamesh, outside inspiration permeates the stories. But were the stories of Abraham and Moses inspired by portions of the book of Isaiah? And was Sarah, Abraham's wife, originally a Canaanite goddess?

Unlocked after one year for patrons only: One moonlit night in 1853, an Iraqi excavator named Hormuzd Rassam and his team snuck into the hills outside of Mosul and began to uncover the massive palace of the last ancient Assyrian emperor, Ashurbanipal. Inside the palace was the largest trove of surviving documents from the ancient world that has ever been found. The massive library of over 30,000 tablets illuminated what had been the most mysterious empire of the Iron Age, brought to light the ancient masterpiece of the Epic of Gilgamesh, and provided the first window into the lost Near Eastern mythology that influenced the Biblical book of Genesis. While the discovery provided the greatest triumph of British imperial antiquarianism, in recent times Saddam Hussein and other Arab nationalists have attempted to reclaim its legacy by building a modern Library of Ashurbanipal. Suggested further reading: Damrosch, "The Buried Book."

Michael Meade turns to what many consider to be the oldest known story, the Sumerian epic of Gilgamesh. The ancient tale offers guidance for these critical times, not from the heroic battles or kingly powers of Gilgamesh, but from his later life search for spiritual renewal and the plant of immortality.   The primordial plant is described as “the thing that gives immortality” or as “the flower of life that renews vitality,” can only be found in the depths of the ocean. Thus, a great descent is required in order to find the roots of renewal and the touch of the eternal.   In critical times we all need a taste of that plant that might rejuvenate us and renew the spirit of our lives. Down, back and below us, the ocean of the unconscious holds the treasure of the deep self and soul, the source of our inner life and origin of our spiritual longings.   The soul knows that the full potential of life must be sought back at the beginning, down at the source, where the underlying unity of life waits to be found and be touched again. Our ancestors, going all the way back to before recorded time, found the sacred founts of renewal in forest pools, in the rivers and at the shores where the spirit of life waits to be found again and again. When we allow ourselves to be touched by the deep waters that came from the primordial beginning, time stops, life becomes holy again, and we become capable of wisdom that the old knowers knew.   Thank you for listening to and supporting Living Myth.
