hello SGland ✨💕!! today's blog is about my transcendental experience of ''Hoshi o Ou Kodomo'' or ''Travel to Agartha''
This magnificent work belongs to Makoto Shinkai, released in 2011, came to the west with the title Children Who Chase Lost Voices From Deep Below.
The story of a young girl who spends most of her time alone, has a cat as her friend and always sits on the mountain to listen to music and watch the world, and from there everything takes on new directions.
Agartha herself is, in itself, a mythological figure - something like a kingdom situated in the heart of the Earth, directly related to Edmond Halley's theory of the Hollow Earth, as well as the texts of Buddhism, Hinduism and even the occult. Agartha would be one of the eight sacred cities of the fourth dimension, which would have a utopian society. In the drawing, it is also populated by gods and mystical figures, such as the Quetzalcóatl, a deity from Mesoamerican culture, treated as the guardian of the city gates. Perhaps the most interesting is the polytheistic reality brought to the drawing. Despite taking place in Japan, the sacred built by Agartha is made by divinities and beliefs from different cultures.
it is a mixture of beliefs, but the figures of Quetzalcóatl, as well as, for example, Shakuna Vimana
(originally from the mysticism of India), are part of an interesting approach of what could really be sacred or even after death. The inhabitants of the sacred city, as well as the Archangel association (made up of ordinary humans from the surface - external - who seek the knowledge of Agartha), interestingly do not seem to raise any question about the evident religious fusion presented in the plot of “Journey to Agartha”, which brings an intriguing and inclusive representation of the theme.
one thing that caught my attention, in one of the scenes is that before dying the Quetzalcóatl's sing a song before dying, which contains all their memories, the dream comes out affecting all forms and things everywhere, without we notice the vibrations in the air, enter our bodies and mix with our material, so it will guarantee that your memory will exist forever somewhere in the world.
The philosophy of life of Hoshi wo or Kodomo is also a point to be raised, the idea that each one serves a greater purpose, and when your function ends, you become part of another being with a greater purpose. Despite the raw way this is going on and somewhat primate, it is still a beautiful theory.
without a doubt that this is a work that goes unnoticed by many, Hoshi o Ou Kodomo accentuates a lot, and awakens with it curiosities and the desire to research more, to know more, about every detail, it is worth seeing !!
they say it is a children's film, I am happy then, for inserting them in something so incredible and majestic, full of culture, rich visually, for sure if one day I have children, they will see from an early age ahaha 💕
I hope you enjoyed my blog !!
