Second part of Ange Duino's lecture. To access to the first part click here. What is that laugh which, for thousands of years resounded in caves, temples, sources, where "the gods", rising the children of men to the rank of immortals, "created men in their own image" ? Ange Duino invites us to a journey out of time to meet great mythological characters: Amaterasu, Zoroaster, Heracles, Hephaestus, Merlin, Abraham, Noah. All of them evoke the laugh of the initiates, that freeing laugh, which shows joy and accomplishment "specific to the being who access to the dynamic Universe".

 Libertine, atheist, manipulator... Don Juan is a fascinating and complex character. In five centuries, traveling from a text to another, he passed from a stature of a literary hero to true modern myth. Within an continual movement, Don Juan is the emblem of a mutating world where patrimony stops being holy to let speculation and scattering of values developing: we passed from the being to appearances.

 "Robinhood, Peter Pan and Santa Claus represent archetypal incarnations linked to childhood, to its passage rites and lead us to the primordial green and vermilion maturity" asserts Arnaud D'Apremont. The author studies these characters through three aspects. Successively, the author talks about "the shaman or spirit of Nature", then, "the lord of paradox - the help the get through". And at last "the dealing justiciary". The choice of "becoming an adult" or "remain a child" is a major preoccupation of psychology, with this recurrent questioning which leads us to the mystery of embodiment and creating paradox.

 En 1961, two French intellectuals: Jacques Bergier and Louis Pauwels (future creator of the Figaro Magazine!) create a magazine, the Magazine Planète, that will experience a great success for seven years. Its concept: combining realism and fantastic, in other words: science and science fiction. Forty years later: what became of the children of that magazine? To answer this question, we gathered Wiktor Stoczkowski, anthropologist (EHESS and Collège de France), Jean-Luc Rivera, expert in paranormal and Stéphane François, counterculture specialist.

 The genius of creation is born of the union of the soul and the spirit as shows the storming in, in the soul of the Proustian hero, of a freeing Joy which enables him to answer, at last, to its vocation of writer. By the conversion of mental habits that it demands, the reading of the inner book and its translation which is the work, will feed, in the soul, the "freed man and the order of time". It's this one that inspires to the author - still bound to a mortal body - a composition as well as images leading the reader to a depth where his soul, can't open to what is beyond, and what isn't the order of time.

 This presentation is the following of the part: Towards a universal tradition? The scenario in which Jean-Louis Brun shows an original key of reading, initiatory, from the I Ching, which enables to understand the order of more than fifteen myths and legends. In this part the author talks about "the archetypal myth" of ancient Egypt: Isis and Osiris by Plutarch (1st century). Plutarch priest of Apollo, thinker in the tradition of Plato, asserted that myths hid a deep and unique truth. He wrote: "like mathematicians say that the rainbow is an image of the sun colored by the reflection of its beams, the same way the Isis myth is the image of a certain truth which reflects a same thought in different environments".

 Cet exposé est la suite du volet : Vers une tradition universelle ? Le scénario dans laquelle Jean-Louis Brun expose une clef de lecture inédite, iniatique, issue du Yi Jing, permettant de comprendre l’ordonnancement de plus d’une quinzaine de mythes et légendes. Qualifiée de religion initiatique par Robert Turcan, le mithraïsme, le culte de Mithra aurait pû connaitre un développement analogue au christianisme si l’Empereur Constantin n’en avait décidé autrement lors du concile de Nicée en 325. Quelles sont les sept étapes de l’initiation mithriaque ? Quelles lames du Tarot de Marseille retrouvons-nous au fil de ce chemin initiatique? Et comment retrouve-t-on l'ordonnancement des huit hexagrammes que Jean-Louis Brun a établi ?

 What resonance is there between ternary anthropology as Michel Fromaget described and work of Proust, which has always been considered as agnostic? Yet a passage of his work presents soul as a residence with two doors: one "low and shameful" is the experience one, the other,"golden" the imagination one. This structure places soul between two levels of reality, presented as opposed in nature and in value.
