Vids Posting this on Post #2--reply to Harriet--as it brings up the "poster child" for The Hero's Journey, AA's founder Bill Wilson. This is the video outlining the 12 steps of the "Hero's Journey" (by Joseph Campbell.) [link to youtu.be (secure)] Quote: Here is a list of the "Process" for the Hero's Journey: Note: Luke Skywalker (Star Wars), Indiana Jones (Raiders of the Lost Ark), "larger than life people" (Bill Wilson, Founder of AA) (Even Jesus in the Christ Story) are actually intended as "templates" for our own personal hero's journey. We can "answer the CALL" or we can choose to "refuse the call" which are both steps in the journey. In the end UDECIDE. The Process: 1. The "ordinary world" (where we all begin) 2. The CALL 3. Refusal of the CALL 4. Meeting the Mentor 5. Crossing the Threshold Ordinary World --------------------------------------------------------------- Special World 6. Test, allies, enemies 7. Approach 8. Ordeal, Death (of Ego) Rebirth 9. Reward, Seizing the SWORD Special World --------------------------------------------------------------- Ordinary World 10. The Road Back 11. Ressurection 12. RETURN (with the "Elixer") Thanks for the timely reminder. Hope I have a chance to view this tonight. Quoting: Crazy Harriet Merry Christmas, Oracle's Cookie! and to all reading this post. I'm having to watch "The Hero's Journey" a few times to process it fully. It really is a profound perspective and could be incredibly valuable if you are "anchored" (and some people really are...) in the "victim" mentality for the unfortunate events in your life. What I found especially interesting in the video was the author's point that even though we go through the "Hero's Journey"--coming out of the experience with the "elixer" we need to take back into our ordinary lives --we may actually eventually "lose that original enlightenment" and need to REPEAT the SAME Hero's Journey again until we finally can "get it." Watched the documentary on Alcoholics Anonymous Founder, Bill Wilson last night on PBS. If there would be a good example of someone going through the HUGE challenges of the Hero's Journey....but then "losing it" and needing to "repeat the process" to gain the insights again, Bill Wilson would be a POSTER CHILD for this example. [link to youtu.be (secure)] 2 minute duration. Bill Wilson, Founder of AA reports the original "spiritual awakening" he had received early in his sobriety. While this lofty spiritual experience would propel Wilson through many decades and his careful stewardship of the AA Fellowship later in his life he would lose the vision and sink into a life-threatening depression. He would--just as the video explains--need to REPEAT THE HERO'S JOURNEY until he embraced the miracle once again. Little known to most AA'ers, Bill Wilson went from the Hero (for his own experience of alcoholism to recovery and founding the fellowship of AA) to having the AA Fellowship during the 50's turning their backs on him! Wilson decided to take part in the "controlled medical experiments" into the benefits of LSD--as a possible medical breakthrough for treating chronic alcoholism for those who did NOT experience the spiritual enlightenment Wilson was able to have early in his sobriety. Wilson became nearly suicidal over this NEGATIVE reaction from his fellowship (as some suggesting he had "relapsed" or become a drug addict) and--as would be expected in A REPEAT experience (described in Campbell's "Hero's Journey") he would go through yet another dark night of the soul with his LSD experience and meeting his late in life mentor Alice- Wilson would come through the other side a changed being the remainder of his life. Interesting "take" on his Bill Wilson's life using the 12 steps of the Hero's Journey.

Thanks Harriet, I think you will really enjoy the video. I'm trying to find some old clips of Joseph Campbell himself --like those interviews he had with Bill Moyers for the thread...but they are hard to find. Let me know what you think of the videos! I'm having to watch "The Hero's Journey" a few times, Harriet to process it fully. It really is a profound perspective and could be incredibly valuable if you are "anchored" (and some people really are...) in the "victim" mentality for the unfortunate events in your life. I'm not preaching, but since this perspective is having a profound effect on my own perspective this Christmas season, I wish to share it. I will usually experience a serious amount of depression around the holidays--as many who have baggage from their past will have--and this video has really helped me feel better. What I found especially interesting in the video was the author's point that even though we go through the "Hero's Journey"--coming out of the experience with the "elixer" we need to take back into our ordinary lives --we may actually eventually "lose that original enlightenment" and need to REPEAT the SAME Hero's Journey again until we finally can "get it."

Vids Loss Of A Loved One Losing a loved one can be stressful and painful. If they were taken as a result of an illness, at least you realize that they are now in a truly better place, with no pain nor sadness. But if the person was taken unexpectedly, many folks struggle with the loss, even to the point of being angry with God. No human can truly know the Good Lord's reasons,but here's some thoughts. If the person was rebelling against the Lord, maybe they were taken & given one last chance to Believe & ask forgiveness. Maybe the person was back-sliding in life, and the Lord took the person home before things got worse. Perhaps the Lord had / has tasks for the person to do that required the person to be in spirit form. Or maybe the Lord was pleased with the person so much that He brought that person home. I'm sure there are many other possible reasons. Pray to the Good Lord that the person was actually Saved. Give thanks to God for the good times you spent with the person. Those memories will last in your heart. I am a humble Servant of the one True Living God. |

Vids So, I got a bit of a ramble I guess... not complete by any means. I do intend to lay it down before I sleep tonight though. Im`a start with an old saying; life is a journey, not a destination. Journey as a hero, what is there to it? There is a hero; a person admired or idealized for courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities. There is also a journey; going from one place to a other. These are the given definitions. So the obvious conclusion is thatwe are that hero, and this journey is singular, pertaining only to ourselves. Seems to me, a fallacy. No hero in popular culture, or mythology, obtains hero status by saving only themselves. That is not a hero. Experiences are not necessarily for us, but of benefit to others (a true hero does not save him/her self, but the innocents).

Vids Thus, we have this misplaced concept that we are heroes on our own personal journey to save ourselves. We continue in circles, starting over again where we began. It is never enough, because we are disillusioned to what the final goal, the ending achievement is. We think we need "X" because that will "end" the journey. Preconcieved notions. We need A to B pathways. Then, after all that searching, relying only on ourselves ( because, of course, that is our self interest) we still have not obtained the end of our journey.

Vids Lions, Tigers nor Bears will make the playoffs this year....so sry. The will of the people is the only legitimate foundation of any government, and to protect its free expression should be our first object. ~ Thomas Jefferson, Inaugural Address, 1801 It is not only vain, but wicked, in a legislator to frame laws in opposition to the laws of nature, and to arm them with the terrors of death. This is truly creating crimes in order to punish them. ~ Thomas Jefferson, 1779 |

Vids Hey Cookie, You were talking about the 9/23 signs in another thread and I found something to add to that touches the Hero’s Journey as well. Music has always been the most powerful part of my personal prayer experience and for whatever reason I have been really drawn to The Killers lately. When is the last time anyone watched Mr. Brightside? That video blows my mind, you should watch it right now. It came out 13 years ago and is symbolically exposing the elite’s prostitution and satanism. The girl is very reminiscent of the Divine Sophia who is abused by the Devil. It’s some potent imagery, love the Foo dogs, and led me to wonder where they were getting it from, possible cabal band. Turns out that Brandon Flowers is Christian and just released a new album on, guess the date....9/22!!! The album is Wonderful Wonderful, full of symbolism and gnostic stuff, especially the last song. Out of all the dates that an album could come out on, considering that the Killers music has been loaded with symbolism for 13 years, it just happens to come out right before the 9/23 alignment, and features explicit Biblical content. From the Calling “I walked into town with a message for my old man, Got the last two chapters of Matthew in my hand.” “Follow the Sun out of the Night, Brother just lean into the light.” You can really see an amazing hero’s journey in how Brandon Flowers was able to go through the dark night of the elite show biz industry and still come out with amazingly profound, inspirational music all these years later. So yeah, if you are feeling down, listen to this album.

Extremely interesting times we are in, for sure! I think I am going to do much better this Holiday Season than I have in the past--just the 2 videos I've posted have helped a great deal. While I really rely on prayer in my life to "balance" it doesn't hurt to try to help yourself out of a "funk" and we have the wonderful tool of the internet to bring us new insights we may never have had before. The Joseph Campbell material has been especially helpful, and I have already mentioned Eckhart Tolle's perspectives which enlarge on Campbell's stuff really well. Here is your album, Bohemian. [link to youtu.be (secure)] A Lovely holiday to you and yours! Thanks for the suggestion about music. I'll definitely remember that.
