The Hero's Journey: Joseph Campbell on His Life and Work
The Hero's Journey: Joseph Campbell on His Life and Work

Joseph Campbell
b. 3-26-1904; White Plains, NY
d. 10-30-1987; NYC

Joseph Campbell was a educator, author and public lecturer who brought his expertise in comparative mythology and religion to the public through series of interviews with Bill Moyers called The Power of Myth, and his role in inspiring film director George Lucas in the development of the Star War movies. Campbell also met Carl Jung who said to him, “Aum is the sound the nature makes when it is in harmony with itself.”

Joseph Campbell quotes ~
• “A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself.”
• “I don't have to have faith, I have experience.”
• “Myths are public dreams, dreams are private myths.”
• “I think the person who takes a job in order to live - that is to say, for the money - has turned himself into a slave.”
• “Love is a friendship set to music.”
• “Participate joyfully in the sorrows of the world. We cannot cure the world of sorrows, but we can choose to live in joy.”
• “Find a place inside where there's joy, and the joy will burn out the pain.”
• “Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors where there were only walls.”
• “God is a metaphor for that which trancends all levels of intellectual thought. It's as simple as that.”
• “Computers are like Old Testament gods; lots of rules and no mercy.”
• “Life is without meaning. You bring the meaning to it. The meaning of life is whatever you ascribe it to be. Being alive is the meaning.”
• “The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are.”


Carlos Castaneda, image at Amazon
Carlos Castaneda

Carlos Arana Castaneda
b. 12-25-1925; Cajamarca, Peru
d. 4-27-1998; Californa

Anthropologist Carlos Castaneda's books, which sold 8 million copies worldwide and were published in 17 different languages, describe the teaching of Don Juan, a Yaqui sorcerer and shaman, in a first person narrative. Castaneda's works helped define the 1960's and usher in the New Age movement. Before his death, and since, Castaneda and his works have been scrutinized for authenticity of his personal experience.

Carlos Castaneda quotes ~
• “We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same.
• “The aim is to balance the terror of being alive with the wonder of being alive.”
• “Man lives only to learn. And if he learns it is because it is the nature of his lot, for good or bad.”
• “Self-importance is our greatest enemy. Think about it - what weakens us is feeling offended by the deeds and misdeeds of our fellowmen. Our self-importance requires that we spend most of our lives offended by someone.”
• “The hardest thing in the world is for a warrior to let others be.”

FYI ~ The surname Castaneda is a direct line from Fruela II, King of Asturias, King of Leon and King of Galicia in northern Spain between 910-925AD.

Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
b. 5-1-1881; Orcines, France
d. 4-10-1956; NYC

Jesuit priest Pierre Teilhard de Chardin was also a paleontologist who wrote primarily on the phenomenon of man and the future of the world.
After working in China on the discovery of Peking Man’s skull, he developed his belief that evolution is an incomplete process. He has become known for his theory that man is evolving, mentally and socially, toward a final spiritual unity.
