The Somatic Dimensions of Myth
This chapter explores the somatic dimensions of myths and how they are encoded with yogic techniques for achieving a state of trance and yogic absorption. It discusses various myths, such as the churning of the cosmic ocean and the story of Persephone, to illustrate how myths invoke somatic journeys and emphasize the connection between the body and mythology.
