What if our current crisis was mainly a crisis of knowledge? What if we realized that the hyper-specialization of our concerns and areas of knowledge were leading us to a myopic, or worse, cynical blindness? How to reestablish a cosmogonic vision of the world, when human evolution is impulsed by technical, economic and scientific development, while there is an evident ethical, psychological and affective degradation?
Magical thought is at the base of myths and folklore, offering an analogy between microcosm (human spirit, mind, and body), and a macrocosm (cosmos, universe and nature). In this way of thought, there is a connection between name and thing, between object and image. I believe that it is possible to speak of magic from a secular point of view.
