- How to think mythically and sense archetypally to better understand our shared humanity, yet honour the diverse ways we live and make meaning. Australian-born Lithuanian Kristina Dryza is recognised as one of the world’s top female futurists and is also an archetypal consultant and author. Kristina has always been fascinated by patterns for she feels we are patterned beings in a patterned universe. She writes and speaks about the patterning of seasonal, tidal, lunar and circadian rhythms and their influence on creativity, innovation and leadership. She also explores archetypes and mythology to perceive the patterns in the collective unconscious and their expression within our psyches, society and media. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
As a huge admirer of Jung and the pursuit of Truth, this was one of the best Ted Talks I've ever watched. Very eloquent and poetic in it's transmission as well. Thank you for this piece of art, Kristina.
Thank you! A poetic imagination is so crucial in these times.
WOW! Amazing speech. At 3:53 Kristina says: "Myths can either enslave or liberate us". So true. Many modern films and the Daily news are stories that are enslaving us 24/7. There is no relief. Yet ancient, timeless spirited stories can help us to understand what on earth is going on within us (emotionally) and around us (physically, politically, economically and most importantly environmentally). We are spiritual beings and if we are lucky enough to remember our dreams, we can learn to interpret them as they are our own individual myths that can connect us to the "collective unconscious" every single night. Our dreams are our own individual myths, and we can learn to interpret them once we learn to interpret ancient myths the way Kristina describes in this speech. Well done Kristina, you are doing a service to humanity.
Our challenges, and our graces, have the gods and goddesses and the myths alive in them. So how will this now shift the power we bring to our thinking, feeling, choices and actions?
You are the living embodiment Mojgan!
that is libarating
First Ted Talk I've ever truly enjoyed. This woman is a knockout on every level.
Thank you!
This talk has changed my life in more ways than I can count! Thank you.
My absolute pleasure!
Beautifully eloquent. Spot on throughout the talk, with excellent pacing and delivery.. I dream of a world where this metaphor/mythology is taught starting in grade school. Where we collectively agree to rise above the more vulgar surface truths of our daily living, and work diligently as a culture to more fully comprehend the power and magic of this day to day journey we call life. Brava!
Wholeheartedly agree with your dream! ❤
Every word from 12:00 onwards resonates deeply.
🤗
She is amazing. I related this to my own life and I came to the understanding of what I had been through.
This Ted Talk also made me understand the value of fire in a GOLD BAR’s life. Without fire, gold ore does not reach it’s true potential as GOLD BAR, the gold we all come to love.
Thank you for this.
Beautiful description of the process!
The most underrated video on whole TH-cam.Presented really eloquently and entertaining. WP
Thank you!
This was so amazing to listen to... "after winter it's spring"..
Thank you. Yes, it's so comforting to know that spring always follows a personal winter.
The best Ted talk I have listened to. Thanks for uploading.
Thank you!
This Ted talk is so wonderful and was meaningful to me in ways I cannot express
"Meaning makes a great many things endurable - perhaps everything." - C. G. Jung
Love you Kristina! Your perspective on myths and archetypes has helped me so much, and I am so proud of you for getting to speak at TedX. You deserve it!
Couldn't have done it without you!
I like how she is dressed appropriately for her talk, in a Greek goddess gown
Great perspective , thank you
🙏
It is sad somehow that we are drifting away from lessons from archetypes and myth: I'm so happy that you are moving this to the forefront again!
Yes! We’re called to create new narratives that more truthfully embody who we are!
What a fantastic presentation Kristina. Love it!
Thank you! I enjoyed preparing it!
Awesome talk. I have never understood the value of Myths until now.
Thank you💕
Yes, a mythic lens on life brings another layer of richness!
Fantastic talk, enjoyed it deeply, thank you!
Pleasure!
Powerful truth. Thank you, Kristina.
Thank you for watching Pamela!
This is powerful and unique. Thank you. The portion on the descent and hades is a new approach to the balance/ebbs & flows of life that I haven't heard of before
Glad you enjoyed!
One of the most enlightening lecture I've ever listened to, thank you so very much Kristina Dryza and Ted Talks !!!
Glad it resonated!
@@kristinadryza3386 It certainly did !, you're so talented at making your thoughts come across so clearly, you're such an insightful person !!!

This message couldn't have come at a better time for me. Myths are there to help us, not just to entertain us.
🙌
Very intriguing talk!! Well done!
Thank you! Keep being intrigued!
Crying-this is beautiful. Thank you.
My pleasure!❤️
Thank you beautiful one for sharing this. There's certain people I listen to that really touch my heart. And you are one of them.. I feel this thing inside of me that I want to know you better.. I want to listen to you more. Life path number seven has been tough. And yet I am told I am well equipped. Yet so many times I did not feel this. I do wish doctors would know about this as you talked about. Thank you again💝🙏
My absolute pleasure❤
Inspiring, empowering and insightful!
Yes, the descent is the very catalyst that awakens us to our potential!
Well-thought and relevant. An amazing speech.
So important to balance the dark and the light!
Really great stuff! Love how you've married the subject with the story 🙌
Thank you! Yes, crucial for us to contemplate which myths are fading as the new stories begin to emerge. And how we will each contribute to birthing these new narratives!
It is a simple and hard to accept lesson, the changes that come like seasons. This try to be in the sunny mood is so exhausting!
Our inner winter is as much a part of our psyche as it is of nature’s.
I definitely understand. And I had to learn the Hard way about toxic positivity.
*Thank You Kristina EXCELLENT DISCOURSE* (and You look Fantastic in your Persephone Toga-Dress!)
Yes, I thought the dress suited the talk's theme!
Kristina, your speach is amazing. Hope information about myths will help me to resolve my situation and have another view on it!
When we turn to the universal stories that put us in touch with the sacred dimensions of life inherent within us they can hold us at a deeper level of truth, of power and of wisdom.
Excellent 🙏
Wonderful - you ARE Demeter, addressing her lost child (us).
Thank you for having the archetypal eye to observe!
Very interesting- thank you for a great talk
🙏
Thank you Kristina
My pleasure ❤
I just wanted to learn about mythology but her voice is just relaxing to listen to
I hope you learned something!
@@kristinadryza3386 I did learnt a lot. Excellent talk!
Very good!
Lovely. We all need to get in touch with the world more, our roots, our history, the seasons, our myths and legends. The become one within we need to become one with the world accepting that change is a constant cycle.
Yes, change is life itself and without darkness nothing comes to birth.
From my experience, the underworld is the main source of creation. Great talk!!🔥🔥
Thank you 🙏
What a wonderful talk about living the imaginal life. I can confirm that working within the mythic imagination -- as well as the stories of your dreams -- helps us awaken to our potentials. Thank you Kristina. Beautifully expressed.
Thank you for the reminder of the importance of developing a mythic imagination!
Incredible!
🙏❤
Thanks!!!
My pleasure!
@@kristinadryza3386 I have to say that I am back here again in order to offer a much larger thank you! The last time I was here, I was in the throws of a psycho - spiritual break, or something along those lines. I wasn't much on gratitude then, just trying to hold on. I bought a few books and listened to and read much on the internet concerning non pathological psychosis and spiritual emergencies. Much of what I took in was very educational, but this talk was like a soothing balm for the soul!!! Much thanks!
@@charlo5050 Yes, the soul offers a different type of medicine.
Awesomeness
🙏🙏🙏
The problem of mainstream society when it comes to living a balanced life, the want the quickest way of reaching that state of being is always pursued but not easily found. Without a clear relationship with God there will be confusion. That contact does not promise or give a life with no trials but does gives grace and mercy as you go forth.
which of the 27000 gods do you mean?
Clear relationship to the universe aka you are not important is important - that is all ....
amazing
🙏
That's what astrology is, the living archetypes in all of us. Jung used astrology as a deep source of understanding the human psyche
❤
"Invite them out to dinner"😂That scared me cause I think I did that when I was daydreaming. I invited Ares, Hephaestus, Koios, and Eros and I actually Called Ares Uncle, Hephaestus Gramps, Koios Teacher, and Eros as Mister. Let me dream 😂😂 now I'm going to procrastination land byeeeeee!
I’m watching this for mythology class
🥰
i have evolved to a obsidion archetype!, i have been told . my soul has evolved and merged with my archetype inside of my^^.
I’m so afraid our common consciousness is damaged beyond repair. Especially when looking at the recent events happening in the world... which made more clear by what is happening in the USA. Watching these videos/ people make me think how important it is that the message is broadcasted - that the more awakening, the more of us can save our selves... humanity. This is real - we must understand the archetypes of our psyche. Then we may find a way back to ourselves, to awaken and break free from the existential trap we’re stuck in.
Wholeheartedly agree!
The descent to Hades is required for growth, there would be no Spring without Winter. We do not become a hero without entering, descending and being reborn after the Hades descent. This is Jung and Campbell’s ideology.
Yes, the descent to the underworld is very necessary. And highly fruitful.
MYTH TRUTH TOLD IN PICTURES
🙏
Nice robes
Thank you!
Facts don’t liberate.
But the truth in them does
her outfit is giving me gender envy
❤️
How do I know, that this is not just esoterical nonsense?
😂😂 ignore it then and stay enslaved x
it's mainly Jung's theory. Go look at that then and you can judge yourself.
you can only know it experientially, there's no other way. If you're willing to take the plunge into the depth of yourself, you'll find the answers to several mysteries
@@Phil-du7zc Jung in turn took it from Buddhism/Hinduism.
