There have been no subliminal images or suggestions in this thread, so you can relax, no one is forcing you to post information, so no need to make false assumptions, and I'm not sure what your previous comment about random blogs have got to do with anything here. No one here is not being nice to you either, and no one has said it's a game. I bid you well. Have a good one! Oh la, la!

In your defense, I must point out, you only suggested the story, "The Jungle Book", not the Disney adaptation(s). Disney did not create the story, therefore, reducing this thread to a discussion of Disney is moot. At least I hope so, since I've never had the opportunity to use the word "moot" before and already today I've used it twice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does Mowgli represent a humanity that wants to live in nature? He didn't 'want' to, he was lost and then got raised by wolves. I like nature, wolves, etc. Not sure about the anti-tiger sentiment though.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't 'want' to, he was lost and then got raised by wolves. Mowgli became friends with the animals. As he grew older, he didn't collaborate with humans who wanted to cause trouble in the jungle, and the animals that helped Mowgli develop human-like qualities, so it was a mutually beneficial relationship. 3 hours ago, Firebird said: I like nature, wolves, etc. Not sure about the anti-tiger sentiment though.... I love real tigers, but I writing about a metaphor... referring in particular to the 1942 Technicolor action-adventure film version of "The Jungle Book", directed by Zoltan Korda. In this film, Shere Khan is portrayed as Cain, who as described in the book of Genesis, killed his brother, Able. In the introduction to the film, the narrator describes Shere Khan: "The Tiger - the killer the man eater, the villain who first brought murder to the jungle clan - Shere Khan. It's said that in his first kill, when he was Cain to some poor Able of the glades, when he ran from the scene of his crime, the trees and creepers whipped him with their branches and striped his yellow hide with the mark of Cain. This evil lord must have his dish-lickers his bullies for attendants; the jackal and the hyena, hungry for the scraps of the murderous master's feast." (from the 1942 version of "The Jungle Book", directed by Zoltan Korda) Max Heindel, an American occultist, astrologer, mystic and Rosicrucian, wrote that Freemasonry originated with Cain, who was "the son of a widow". He wrote, "They have lost their spiritual sight and are imprisoned in the forehead of the body where it is said Cain was marked; they must wander as prodigal sons in the comparative darkness of the material world, oblivious to their high and noble estate..." At the end of the Disney story, the jungle is severely damaged by a fire. Mowgli is confronted by Shere Khan, but Mowgli sets fire to his tail. Shere Khan, terrified of fire, runs away.

Macnamara Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 If a child doesn't hear and learn language before a certain age they are never able to learn to speak A scottish king once wanted to know what the original language was which he believed was the language of the angels so he found a mother who was dumb (ie she couldn't speak) and he confined her and her baby to an island in the firth of forth where she then had to live and raise the child Food was taken out to them but people were forbidden to talk to them. The child never learned to talk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSS Posted January 22, 2022 Author Share Posted January 22, 2022 The Jungle Book is about the life of Mowgli, from the time he was a baby, his life as a wild boy, to the time he became an adult and a man, so the story is not just about a child.

But the story is a metaphor. The important thing is that he found love. Same is true with the endings of other stories of a fairy tale nature, like the Prince in Sleeping Beauty, who also found love.

I've been studying the story since the 1990's. Pinocchio spent time in a whale. Manly P. Hall explains here the occult meaning of Whale symbolism: "When used as a symbol of evil, the fish represented the earth (man's lower nature) and the tomb (the sepulcher of the Mysteries). Thus was Jonah three days in the belly of the "great fish," as Christ was three days in the tomb. Several early church fathers believed that the "whale" which swallowed Jonah was the symbol of God the Father, who, when the hapless prophet was thrown overboard, accepted Jonah into His own nature until a place of safety was reached. The story of Jonah is really a legend of initiation into the Mysteries, and the "great fish" represents the darkness of ignorance which engulfs man when he is thrown over the side of the ship (is born) into the sea (life)."
