A journey to the primordial language at the source of all dreaming,
art & mythmaking... In 1945, on a hill overlooking the Nile, a
Gnostic text was accidentally unearthed after having been buried
for seventeen hundred years. Within its aged pages there appeared
the mysterious fragment: enter through the image. Taking this as
his starting point, the noted Visionary artist L. Caruana guides
his reader through a labyrinth of imagery, exposing the forgotten
image-language at the root of all dreaming, art and mythmaking....
Drawing examples from a diversity of ancient cultures (Buddhism,
Alchemy, Gnosticism) and from contemporary Visionary art (Dali,
Fuchs, Johfra), many beautiful and intriguing symbols are
illuminated with crystal clarity. Retracing the steps of 20th
century mythmakers (Hesse, Kazantzakis) and scholars (Jung,
Campbell, Eliade), Caruana opens our eyes to the ancient mythic
patterns underlying our lives. As many fascinating dreams are
offered and decyphered (Baudelaire, Descartes), a new key is given
to us for the elucidation of dreams. By the end of this
richly-illustrated study, we come to see how our own daily
experiences are, in fact, heroic adventures culminating in rare
moments of epiphany. We discover that our own lives are nothing
less than ..".a gradual unfolding of the Sacred."
