COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD
The great myths of the world create meaning out of the
fundamental events of human existence: birth, death, conflict,
loss, reconciliation, the cycle of the seasons. They speak to
us of life itself in voices still intelligible, yet
compellingly strange and distant.
Who are we? Where do we come from? Why are we here? Where
are we going? |
|
These questions have been part of the human experience for thousands
of years. Throughout the ages, our collective human response to
these questions has resulted in the rich tapestry of interconnected
stories, images, rituals, events and symbols that we call world
mythology.

To see a world in a grain of sand
And heaven in a wild flower
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour.
