Fellowship Part 1: Dharma and Thresholds
from For the Shire: Coming Home Through Tolkien, Tarot and Jung · host For the Shire
So be it, we shall discuss... the Fellowship of the Ring! We begin this episode in the Shire, where we find Gandalf entwining duty with dharma as he sets Frodo off on the quest of a lifetime. "All you have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to you." We follow the four hobbits as they leave the conscious realm of the Shire and drop deeper and deeper into darkness. As they cross many thresholds, the layers of the known are peeled back and the Hobbits are exposed to new dangers. But, a mysterious stranger appears as an unexpected guide... Join us for this unravelling of dharma, depths and fraternal devotion in the Fellowship of the Ring. "It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you'll be swept off to."
