i was revisiting some notes and came across this internal monologue. must add this to the void of a wall.
orphics were such interesting people. thinking their souls originally belong to a god namely dionysus? or some previous reincarnation of him and they will be reborn eventually as a different reincarnation of some other part of dionysus' soul. it reminded me of how humans are reflections of god in many religions. and how our attributes are watered down version of purer attributes of gods.
also reminded me of this one interpretation of orpheus and eurydice where eurydice isnt orpheus' wife and there is no event of "looking back" as the original myth commands, too. infact eurydice is the new reincarnation of orpheus' soul.
so, while we are reborn in the image of god we also become an image of the one we love. and souls were referred to as feminine in ancient greece. so, basically, orpheus being brought back from underworld translates to him being reincarnated in orphic realms in esoteric image of love and god combine.
