Why do we take on Avatars?
I woke up this morning thinking of Dominance and Rebellion and wondering what the story of the slayer of Kings known as Parasurama would tell me today.
Why did the two avatars coexist in the telling of this myth?
- the one reinstating a particular form of governmentality – Rama
- and the one systematically demolishing Representatives of Authority – Parasurama
what does the schizophrenia of the moment of their co-existence tell us about the Avataric existences
in today’s Global cultures?
