Episode Synopsis "020 - Spiritual Ascent in Plato's Timaeus & Sor Juana's First Dream w/ Greg Shaw and Isabel Farias"

Greg Shaw from Stonehill College continues the conversation with Isabel and myself about spiritual ascent in Plato's Timaeus and what that would look like to someone wishing to undertake it today. Isabel also told us about a poem by a 17th century Latin American poet named Sor Juana, who in her "First Dream" described a sort of shamanic Night Journey with strong parallels to Plato.
