C of L49: How much darkness does a vision take?

[Mark Kohut]

Eliade (Sharpe, pp. 213-219.)
[Transitional from Jung to Eliade: All of the theorists we have studied so far see an "archaic" or "vestigial" element in contemporary human experience, something remaining from a more primal time.]
A more primal time might be back when the Tristero began? ---MK
 
I think of OBA, so influenced by Norman O. Brown in Gravity's Rainbow and Brown's intense focus on what we repress and what it does to us.      'The Return of the Repressed can be a psychic killer. Writ large??...............
 
So, I wonder if TRP has a vision, as did many of the modernist poets (and others), that holds that some (kind of) expression of our Shadow side,    keeps it from being repressed and ultimately destroying us---and others? 

>From Mr Robert Moore again: Eliade called that the axis mundi. That is the World Tree. In Christianity, it is the Cross ... either fail to have the energy you needed to live, or any energy you had would be demonic.
