an operating mythology is a set of symbols and Metaphors used as structural components of thought. it's a good maintenance practice to change your operating mythology regularly, like rotating your tires. when was the last time you swapped out your operating mythology?
Deliberately changing out 'operating mythology' sounds clunky, costly. Although, I've noticed shifts in the symbols which seem to work for me at different times. It took me a long time to work through prohibitive skepticism towards ritual stuff, so maybe I'm just a slow learner.

Took me a while to understand the 'language of symbol' & get any sense of how rituals work. Some of that had to do with letting go of the illusion of non-ritual practice; I suspect even the most 'non-ritual' practices are mostly just sneaky ritualhttps://twitter.com/misen__/status/1081478297249374209?s=20 …

Question: can you give an example from your life of what you mean by changing mythology?
