In this lecture Lindy will present her research on self-actualization and self-transcendence, areas of Abraham Maslow’s ‘hierarchy’ (1943) that remain elusive to the majority of people, largely due to the lack of education about the self. To know the self is also to care about the self, and Lindy’s doctoral research was aimed at investigating how the use of myth in sacred text, combined with music, may contribute to this process of self-knowledge. Focusing on personal epiphanies, she will present archetypal figures that emerged from the study, outlining the way in which they may lead to transformative learning. The audience will also be invited to experience a short fragment of sacred text accompanied by lyre music.
