MYRMIDONS OF ACHILLES
A symbol of the lower mental concepts subject to
the personality.
(Agamemnon to Achilles),-Go home with thy ships and company, and
lord it among thy Myrmidons; I reck not aught of thee nor care I for
thy indignation." - Iliad, Bk. I.
The Personality is therefore bidden to depart on its upward way, and
the Desire-mind (Agamemnon) conceives it to be possible for the
Personality to dissociate itself in so great a degree from the false
concepts, lusts and passions, as to confine the ego to the upper
planes, an attempt to withdraw the Spirit from the lower, which
would more and more retard evolution. The Desire-mind cannot realise
the Personality under its higher aspects, nor can it sympathise with
its dawning higher emotions.
