Cool. Where are you going with this?

Man moves through the world of Becoming, the ever changing world of sensory perception, into the world of Being—the world of forms, absolutes and transcendence. Man transcends his place in Becoming by Eros, where man reaches the Highest Good, an intuitive and mystical state of consciousness

Much like Diotima did in expressing that Eros as a daemon was in between the Gods and mankind. Love (Eros) is the thing in between

Plato makes Poros, or "creative ingenuity", the child of Metis

According to Pausanias, the deity most worshipped at Thespiae was Eros

Thespis and Thespiae, however, are derived from the noun θέσπις (théspis, "divinely inspired")

Thespian meaning "actor" comes from the legendary first actor named Thespis

Parmenides (c. 400 BC), one of the pre-socratic philosophers, makes Eros the first of all the gods to come into existence

Eros was depicted as an adult male who embodies sexual power, and a profound artist

The Orphic and Eleusinian Mysteries featured Eros as a very original god

The fourth day of every month was sacred to him

The gifts of Eros affect the emotional and thought processes of humanity, especially those of a seeker who has to learn how to open up and integrate these gifts in his psyche

From the lowest and most physical levels of consciousness to the most spiritual ones, Eros remains forever present, gradually transforming the inner fire into pure light

Eleutherios ("the liberator"), an epithet for both Dionysus and Eros

The heart, which was saved, variously, by Athena, Rhea, by Demeter

Socrates claims that the initiations of the Dionysian Mysteries are similar to those of the philosophic path

Hermes of Praxiteles | Hermes of Olympia

...traditionally attributed to Praxiteles...

The city contained many works of art, among them the Eros of Praxiteles, one of the most famous statues in the ancient world; it drew crowds of people to Thespiae

...language of the birds to communicate with the initiated...

Athena is given the curious epithet Tritogeneia

...possible meaning may be triple-born or third-born

Athena may well have been a bird goddess

Hermathena or Hermathene

representing the Greek gods Hermes and Athena

Hermes is identified with the Roman god Mercury

It was natural to see these two deities unified or fused as one form: the Greek god Hermes presided over eloquence, the goddess Athena over crafts and the sciences

Hermes and Athena share or 'double' each other's functions, and some of their powers are alternate and related versions of the same quality. For example, each god embodies the kind of clever intelligence or metis

We of the craft are all crazy

An analogy of holonomic brain theory is the way sunlight illuminates objects in the visual field of an observer. It matters not how narrow the beam of sunlight is, it always contains all the information of the object.

"I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."

How you feel about the the future depends entirely on the context and coherence of the narratives that you subscribe to and make sense of the world and the extent to which future developments deliver the kind of world you expect to be living in. My advice would be to create your own transformative story and live it, embody it, as much as possible

...anything is possible,

Various great Enlightenment figures could be seen as lateral mediarists in that they wrote and copied ideas amongst the great thinkers of that era, a bit like the Internet

The self-expansion model is based on two key principles. The first is that humans have a primary motivation to self expand. The second principle is that individuals often achieve self-expansion through close relationships which allow the inclusion of the other in the self.

...create something greater than themselves. Their “art-event” deepens the artist’s and their audiences’ realization of how they can engage with each other so as to creatively dream up a trance-forming and transforming experience for everyone involved. The artist and their audience co-operatively create a new universe in the process...
