Two essays in the series are still IOUs. One is on the Wise Old Man/Woman archetype, who has become centrally important in the atomized era, conspicuous through absence. Jordan Peterson (discussed briefly in the Todd/

Yes, that was a lovely scene! and I’m really glad they did it. Wise Old Woman is even more culturally difficult than Wise Old Man now. My vampire novel is (would/should/may eventually be) nearly all about a young man relating to a Wise Old Woman.https://buddhism-for-vampires.com/the-vetalis-gift …
