Mythorealism is a philosophy, a modern take on mysticism, mythology, art and literature, in which you are invited to participate if our viewpoint appeals to you. We have no doctrine as such, but you should be able to get a good idea of where we are coming from by reading the material I'll be posting on this blog.
Mythorealism until recently was a family affair, confined to the rather unusual clan of which I am a member. The term itself was invented by my mother, the author and composer Lani Thompson. The metaphysical basis for our philosophy was supplied by my father, the late David Douglas Thompson, a composer and thinker. My brother Jason Thompson developed our metaphysical ideas still further. All of the other family members- including siblings and spouses- have contributed greatly to these ideas through conversation, and some of them may make formal additions of their own at some stage. However, it is no longer our wish to keep this philosophy private, or to "own" the concept of Mythorealism.
It is my goal and my mission to present our ideas to the wider world, but also to invite other people to participate, helping to shape what Mythorealism is and what it becomes.
