Cry

  
According to ancient Greek mythology, the giant Prometheus created the first man out of clay and gave him fire, essential for the development of technology and the arts, by which men became more like gods themselves. Zeus, the king of the gods, punished him for this, chaining him to a mountainside and sending an eagle that every day pecked out Prometheus's liver, which re-grew overnight. He was eventually freed by Hercules.

As with most common verbs, the spiritual meaning of “crying” or “crying out” (meaning a shout or wail, not weeping) is highly dependent on context. Who is crying out? To whom? Why? In most cases, though, crying has to do with speaking falsely, and of the emotions arising from the conflict between truth and falsity. When people cry out in distress it is most often an indication that they are being overwhelmed by false ideas. In other cases – especially regarding more joyful cries – it is a celebration of the triumph of truth.
