Animist, Veridal, Imaginal: Imagination as Perception – Practical Mysticism #010 We began this book with a quote which refers to the Greek notion of kairos as one of those occasional moments in a society’s history when its frames of reference undergo a shift – a metamorphosis of the fundamental principles and symbols, when the lines between myth and history, science and magic become blurred – and, therefore, real change is possible.

Part 4 of my Practical Mysticism series.

Funny thing. It tasted like regular provolone.

Can’t afford marketing, or just hate it? Learn what your customers most need to know, and tell them that SlingFin makes high-end tents for extreme expeditions, so it skips traditional marketing and speaks directly to its niche audience.
