How to See the End of the World - with John Vervaeke (Chino conference)

A discussion between me and John Vervaeke at The Quest for a Spiritual Home conference in Chino, California in May 2023. A big part of our discussion was about eschatological imagery, talking about death and sacrifice, the past, and the future, inventio, and resurrection.Event info: https://thesymbolicworld.com/news/estuary-chino-2023-event-with-jonathan-pageau-john-vervaeke-and-paul-vanderklay----------------------------Timestamps:00:00:00 - Preview00:00:52 - Intro music00:01:16 - Start00:01:53 - Introduction by John00:03:50 - Past and future, origin and telos00:07:22 - Inventio: make and discover00:11:08 - The advantage of death and exile00:15:21 - Exodus00:19:01 - A mythological image of the future00:28:52 - Prediction vs the correct posture of anticipation00:32:05 - Hope00:36:07 - Stoicism and Christianity: Virtue and agency00:47:27 - The icon vs the idol00:50:11 - Cult and worship00:57:25 - The spiritual home01:01:46 - Humility----------------------------💻 Website and blog: http://www.thesymbolicworld.com🔗 Linktree: https://linktr.ee/jonathanpageau 🗣 Join The Symbolic World Community for discussions about symbolism: https://thesymbolicworld.com/subscribe 🔒 BECOME A PATRON Website: https://thesymbolicworld.com/subscribe Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/pageauvideos 📱 SOCIAL MEDIA Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/TheSymbolicWorld Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/pageaujonathan Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jonathan.pageauOur website designers: https://www.resonancehq.io/ My intro was arranged and recorded by Matthew Wilkinson.
