The Secret Teachings with Ryan Gable dives into a captivating exploration of the recent Hollywood trend that spotlights the imaginative world of childhood. In the latest episode, we unravel the connections between films like IF, Harold and the Purple Crayon, and Imaginary, emphasizing how they reflect a deeper question: Are children truly engaging their imaginations, or are they interacting with supernatural forces?
It’s fascinating to note that, according to a report in Psychology Today, approximately 37% of children have imaginary friends by age seven. These friends can take various forms—ranging from animals to human figures of different genders. Our discussion takes a historical turn, as we explore Ancient Rome's household deities and their Japanese counterparts, KAMI and YOKAI, revealing how beliefs about spiritual protection have persisted through cultures.
Moreover, we delve into the peculiar phenomenon where a significant portion of adults reportedly lack an inner dialogue. Recent studies suggest that between 30-50% of the population may not experience inner speech, leading to intriguing theories about the nature of identity and imagination. Could it be that these children’s imaginary friends play a role in shaping or hindering their development?
As we navigate the connections between imagination, spirituality, and childhood, we pose thought-provoking questions about the true essence of creativity and self-awareness in both children and adults. This episode is not just for the curious mind but for anyone interested in understanding the delicate balance between reality and imagination.
