8-bit Guru

The purpose of this project is to simply incorporate the old mythologies and belief systems of the ancient worlds (Sumero-Babylonian, Egyptian, Greco-Roman, African, Hindu, Chinese, Japanese, Abrahamic, Zoroastrian, Meso-American, Native North-American, Aboriginal) into the modern world we live in via the all encompassing medium of pop-culture which at this time is like the new moon, full of energy but devoid of the sun's expositioning light. The voidness of popular culture is both useful and useless. It is useful since it is filled with metaphors, allegories, and parables. But like an empty chalice it is useless until one recognizes that it can be filled with water and used to drink from. Why does human society cyclically fall into the karmic traps of the 3 poisonous minds: greed, anger, and ignorance? It is due to mass spiritual malnourishment which causes a samsara sea of domestic, societal and, inter-cultural strife. The way forward is to recover the dream coin from the sub-conscious zone as Mario, Luiji, Toad or the Princess. All characters can play the bonus game as long as they have a dream coin! As the Sumerian proverb goes: "Drink! Thats the thing! Food! Thats the thing!".
