ENCYCLOPEDIA

LITAE (Litai), a personification of the prayers offered up in repentance. They are described as the daughters of Zeus, and as following closely behind crime, and endeavouring to make amends for what has been done; but whoever disdains to receive them, has himself to atone for the crime that has been committed. (Hom. Il. ix. 502, &c.; Eustath. ad Hom. p. 768; Hesych. s. v. Aigai, calls them Aetae, which however is probably only a mistake in the name.)

    LOL You looked like a possessed Nana Mouskouri. :) One thing I always wondered about Heaven, are there seperaste suburbs for Hindis, Taoists, Muslims, Catholics, Mormons, Christians, Agnostics, Buddhists, the primal-indigenous, Traditional & Diasporics, Sikhs, Jews, Baha’i, Shintos, Zoroastrians, Rastafarians and Scientologists? And a cat flap for all our pets? Or are a lot of people fucked?

    today was the day the man (if you believe in him and the dates) was strung from the cross… amongst all the mayhem and sacrileges humour I want to say that… my memories of this event won’t ever go sir… if I can be a better person every minute of the day, the voice that comes here to guide me is you… sometimes it’s someone else… but… that’s the mission you gave us…

    Damned to Hell is what you say
    As I laugh I also pray
    For all the money they have made
    You make me feel unafraid
    For all the lives they have slein
    The blood will dilute in Okeanos rain
    For all my ramblings and prose
    Let it issue forth that today Hell froze

    kathleenCollaboration Queen in reply to shayne2011’s comment, 4 months ago

    of course there are Shayne it’s just that those ‘clubs’ exist in the part of Heaven God calls Hell…

    A new faith shall be born… to curb the egos of the ugly spawn…

    I think the spirit has taken control of me again… I’m a fucking PROPHET man!

  • kathleen

    oh and the Nana Mouskouri thing, if I had a dollar for all the times…

    everyone thats not of the same religion as you can go to hell? respect, but i don’t think i like your religion very much.

  • kathleen

    kathleenCollaboration Queen in reply to shayne2011’s comment, 4 months ago

    no it was probably taking it a bit far? Hell might not be the bad place, maybe ‘heaven’ is the test on the Human spirit… who knows, I don’t but if you read the myths, the Underworld seems to be far more liberal and artsy than the Olympus heaven place… the birth of theatre… and stuff…

    Hmmm, timely. Prayers are not a bad thing and that’s coming from a non practising Catholic. I love the image, it’s…. soothing. I’d like to describe what i see using a better term but that’s how it feels.
    I may not pray for you in the same way you pray for us, but I hope your life is full of things that make you happy and complete! :D

    You’re a fucking PROPHET man! Fantastic work!!!!!

  • kathleen

    kathleenCollaboration Queen in reply to Paul Louis Villani’s comment, 4 months ago

    I hope your life is full of things that make you happy and complete! :D

    Thank you Mr Vilanni… go listen to your challenging religious music and join in this celebration of spirit... it’s not about where you go when you die, it’s about where you are now… and where you go tomorrow… death is to everyone… perhaps we all get the same ‘treatment’ perhaps not… but one thing I believe firmly is that if we encourage niceness and manners and ethics and harmony… and good energy and karma… we’re gonna be better off as an individual and with lots of better off individuals is going to make a lot better off community… humans collectively should take themselves (and their indoctrinations) less seriously first though, cause that’s the only way to psychologically stave off the offense… and anger and frustration and hurt that we experience from the world around us and the people we interact with… at least in the place where I live there could be some of that…

    Here is another view of prayers...

    The LITAE (greek myth) or LITAI

    Greek Name / Transliteration / Latin Spelling Translations
    Lith
    Litai Likê
    Litai Lita
    Litae Prayers, Entreaties
    (litê)

    THE LITAI (or Litae) were the spirits (daimones) of prayer, ministers and daughters of Zeus. They were depicted as hobbling old women.

    Their opposite was Ate, the goddess of delusion and folly, in whose wake they trod.

    Zeus could be Jesus… hey Zeus… ya hear me Zeus… JeZeus…???

  • Crowmanic

    Crowmanic, 4 months ago

    Not that interested in interpreting… take it as presented and described … this, in my POV, is brilliant as is… well done Kathleen, I really like this, for reasonings eusive, not rational. [ +fav ]

  • Crowmanic

    Crowmanic, 4 months ago

    PS: eusive = elusive.
    Also noted your use of the term “Underworld” in ”... the Underworld seems to be far more liberal …” reminds me of the piece I wrote called “We of the Underworld” ...
