But the myth also offers powerful, soul-changing ways of healing the wasteland in ourselves as well as in our society. For we are all the wounded Fisher King, each one of us is Parsifal, and every human being is a Grail of the most sacred life.*
Jean Houston

What had to be done here was to lead the particular person in her concrete situation to the unique and singular task of her life.**
Viktor Frankl

Yes, the grail is a myth –
That’s the point, and the myth is
your meaning, containing what you require to
make you whole, whilst also contributing to
the wholeness of others;
Viktor Frankl would probably call our particular “grailness” our
responsibility to life, our singularity –
Name it, write it down, develop it,
Play it every day.
