Myth, Dream, and Radical Remembering
Loading player...
We begin this season with Prof. Monica Mody, whose work in decolonial, Indigenous, and women of colour paradigms and epistemologies activates ancestral memory and symbolic imagination. Our conversation explores mythological studies as a transdisciplinary lens through which education is reframed as a process of initiation.
Rather than the transmission of information, education becomes an unfolding of dreams, stories, and birth–death–rebirth cycles—sacred technologies for spiritual and intellectual transformation. Together we trace how myth carries ancestral presence, unsettles linear notions of knowledge, and makes space for complexity, rupture, and return.
This dialogue embodies the theme of Conscious Conversations: that education, when grounded in relational and ancestral ways of knowing, becomes a sacred practice of remembering ourselves and remembering the worlds we inhabit.
