Drikker, A. S. Imagination and a Myth: Metaphysical Transformation

Abstract: Myth is born at the moment when biological existence splits apart. Myth is born there where imagination rules and mind understood what time was. According to the author, cultural evolution resulted in globalization and modification of the myth which has reached its final stage, - the myth of ‘information society’. Such progressive modernization does not consider the psyche though which is unable to transform itself in a rigid system of orthogonal coordinates of physical and psychic realities. However, there where the natural world of conscious ends, intuition and imagination free themselves from fear and can open a new stage as a result of revolutionary and metaphysical transformation of psyche.
