Dear Daniel!
Actual topic. Interesting view: becomes the symbolic embodiment
of an angelic androgyny?
But I never saw it so clearly in Wagner's Parsifal. WHERE is it? in his words I mean..
I really feel some of such intentions in all his works - even Opera and Drama, when he combines a poet and a musician in one. Opera and Drama may imply such a view.
Laitman also says that we have 2 parts of soul in one, then we also may be one as 2 people (this point I don't believe at all - or may be it happens rarely) .
anyway - in contemporary world - we see such hybrid views - that I 'm not shocked at all.
In Japan they modify human embrions already.
All that makes me think - that souls are so spoiled - that they will become incarnated with any sins that were left in their karma.
all this contemporary mess make me more definite in all humanity's destiny to become PURE out of any combinations in you brains or souls. (that what I love in Laitman too) .
This is a vexed issue. Androgyny plays a major role in international Symbolist Movement, including A. Blok and other Russian poets of that time. But the French Symbolists amplified it in Wagner. Wagner died only six months after completing Parsifal, and the rest is silence. It's his followers who developed this further. Perhaps Wagner buried the androgyny theme in the opera without fully recognizing. And appreciating Parsifal doesn't depend on it. My first poem shows how you can, if you choose, incorporate that theme. My second poem deals with a moral triumph over Klingsor's evil, with the Flower Maidens mysteriously redeemed and transformed. I think their sufferings as Klingsor's puppets merit such an apotheosis.
