akira the don – sun rose lyrics
i see mythology
as serving four functions
the first function is
what i would call
the, the mystical function
it opens up a realization
of the mystical dimension
that, behind the surface phenomenology
of the world
there is
a transcendent mystery source
and that is the source also
within yourself
within yourself
the second function has to do
with the image of the world
what i would call the cosmological function
this changes radically from time to time
in the very early hunting and planting
and gathering societies
relatively small horizon
and the science was that of what was visible
in terms of the visible world
[chorus]
the sun rose
went down
the sun rose
went down
the sun rose
went down
and the science was that
of what was visible
in terms of the visible world
the sun rose
went down
with copernicus
this all changed
the sun isn’t rising
it’s we that are twisting
the cosmology has totally changed
cosmology and science changed
well, a mythology, to be up+to+date
and really to work
in the minds of people who are living
in the modern scientific world
must itself incorporate the modern scientific world
modern scientific world
[chorus]
the sun rose
went down
the sun rose
went down
and the science was that
of what was visible
in terms of the visible world
the sun rose
went down
the third function of a mythology is sociological
to validate and maintain
a certain specific social order
here and now
of this specific society
of this specific society
the fourth problem
is the pedagogical problem
guiding the individual harmoniously
through the inevitable crises of the stages of life
in this world today
terms of its goods, its values, its dangers
[chorus]
the sun rose
went down
the sun rose
went down
and the science was that
of what was visible
in terms of the visible world
the sun rose
went down
where does mythology come from?
for campbell, the beginning to this story
does not exist somewhere out there
in the distant past
rather, it starts right here right now within us
with what it means to be a human being
it’s easy to see what separates us from each other
what makes us different
we all look and sound differently
and most societies have different values and customs
these are the physical and cultural distinctions
that set us apart
what then are the characteristics we share in common
how’re we all the same?
