In this episode of the podcast I am speaking with Thomas Moore about the daimonic life. Amongst other things we talk about how he first came across the idea in the Iliad, daimon as guiding helping spirit, falling in love as a daimonic experience, daimonic experience through people you meet along the way, his experience of being ‘called’ towards a monastic life as a daimonic experience. Daimon/demon. Eros as a great daimon, the dialogue between ourselves and our daimon, the need to reflect, writing and poetic theology.
Thomas Moore is the author of many books including the New York Times best seller Care of the Soul, as well as The Re-Enchantment of Everyday Life, Dark Nights of the Soul and Soul Therapy.
