My stroke, loss of sight, and terminal renal failure have all proven to be the most important initiations of my life. Thank you JC for helping me realize this.
A brilliant man, who seemed to love nothing more than learning for its own sake and then sharing what he learned, a master of understanding of mythology. I hope soon PBS will replay his outstanding series with Bill Moyers 'The Power of Myth'.
Fascinating. Truly enlightening and profound. Campbell is the Yoda/Merlin figure many of us have been seeking to help us understand universal humanity.
Having read his three volumes of mythologies and other works these videos are wonderful to watch and only add so much more meaning to his written work. Thank you for posting all these Campbell videos. I have subscribed to the channel and hope for more of these.
I have found the attachment between Joyce, McLuhan and Joseph Campbell worth an epiphany a day. Joseph Campbell inspires the most humanity in my opinion, but I came to him through McLuhan. Thanks for posting this!
This is a beautiful ritual and unfortunately in our modern society, there is this lack of any meaningful initiation ceremony transitioning from childhood to adulthood. Our ancient ancestors (and I speak as someone of European descent) also had such initiation ceremonies, long before Christianization. I was honored to stay for two weeks on the Oglala Lakota Pine Ridge reservation, but was respectful that the sun dance was only for Natives to witness, so I don't know if the Mandan were different but how this painter was able to witness this sacred sun dance.
Jordan’s work is greatly inspired by Campbell’s, this I believe to be true. The difference is Jordan has accepted his cult of personality as the “uncircumcised father” for many lost young (often white) men. Campbell strived to have an understanding of the divine masculine and feminine by searching far across the cross-cultural landscape of myth.
@@crimepsychic2023 I've watched Peterson's videos back before he became very well known, I never got the impression that he was "fueled by his ego" and he had some very interesting ideas. Maybe he became this way now.
Disjointed, hacked up, out of context bits and pieces of Campbell"s message? The world needs, for example, the full Moyer / Campbell interviews uncut, But this foumdation is instead hacking Campbell's core messages up into tiny little disjointed hacked up bits and pieces. They are doing that as teasers to commercially monetize Campbel's work. The very nature of Campell's works must remain freely available, intact, in context, and sui- generis on a "giving foot forward" monetization model, which primarily is not the JC Foundation monetization model. Does this greedy foundation have copyrights on these works? Why can't anyone post these works up on IE. You Tube etc. free uncut unedited? For instance the full uncut Campbel / Moyers series. Why is Moyer not acting to counter this outrage? How to obtain these works intact & unedited now like when Campbell was alive without profiteering? That would be Campbell's will. The Campbell Foundation, in the guise of proliferating Campbell's body of work, is instead fragmenting it for commercial monetary motives. So aggravating! Seriously any effort to keep Campbell's work free, and free of being hacked up, and free of being exploited by the world system, then count us in. Metaphorically speaking: God was out for a stroll one day with the devil following along & imitating God. God was carrying something "he" had picked up along the way. The devil runs up and asks. "whatcha got there God?" God replies, "I got the truth." The devil then says," give it to me & I will organize it for you!". JC Foundation you need to stop "money changing on the temple steps".
I'm irritated with these short videos! Why do you cut everything into 4 min snippets? I think joseph Campbell would detest this practice of fragmenting his message. Please post the full unedited interviews or documentary!!
"Directing the sale and distribution of his published works" - from the jcf website. They've also broken the wonderful Mythos 10 hour video set into several small pieces. I reckon there's more money in it that way.
Although none of us remember being in heaven with God, we are basically the same inside, and our interests with it. I could see Joseph in heaven summing up what we were all doing around God, aside from those of us who where right up there with us. Its to bad he died and such is the case with most people I run across, he would have found me and my life very interesting, and maybe I could have shed enough insight so he could figure things out. I did the hero's journey, just as he told it, I was rather fascinated by it, because not to many people would know such details. But I do believe he learned enough so when he gets to heaven, he will figure it out when its told to him.
I am sure if you draw yourself then you'll get a serafin-quality portrait of someone (probably another seraf next to you), if you are not one of the Da Vinci worshippers LOL
Unfortunately, we are usually only humbled through hardships and heartache. It's up to us whether we experience more and more trials and tragedy at more severe levels, depending on whether we all them to harden us repeatedly. Sometimes we need to be brought to our knees and have our heart broken open in order to clearly see, but sometimes we don't stay in that state. When the trials ease up we become hardened again i.e. become judemental without the compassionate ability to see the reasons why people do what they do from a collective perspective. Hence, the ever increasing tragedies being faced today. And tomorrow. We can only expect things to get worse in the world. If we aren't humbled, we won't be able to handle it. It's not an option, everyone will face it. And of course it's usually when one is already down and "can't take anymore" and then some. Just like the torture story Campbell told. Knowing we're in a "fallen" state, and that it could take wasting a lifetime before being humbled, many practices were used to expedite the process, on themselves and others and routinely..... because there is no "staying" power without force of will and self discipline, even to "live your bliss". There's literally no "aha" moment, and that's that, the end of story. It's forever ongoing "aha" moments, each a more indepth level of understanding than before. If we're not applying effort in choosing our thoughts and choosing our perceptions in which we see the world through, we literally aren't thinking for ourselves.. leaving us wide open to become overrun and ruled by mind chatter. Thus ending up a reactionary slave to the subconscious mind (stored information, opinions, beliefs, shoulda coulda woulda's, where past and future exist) because we foolishly think and believe that the mind chatter Is Us doing the thinking! But it's not. We're just reacting to it, usually in agreement and obedience, not realizing we're not living our lives. Everything is frequency including thought. The "gift of God's free will" is a force, a magical power of sorts. Force is what causes motion. Our will is the force that creates the life we experience. We've been lulled into a brain entrainment of sorts and can't see it, and have to fight harder for it now more tban ever.

Campbell is the figure the power elite GAVE you. Anybody on TV isn't there for YOU, he is there for his pay masters.
You are right and the more shadows you´ve walked through the more God loves you.
You will
Almost makes "blackening" the initial process in alchemy seem like modern day if the Adepts truly wanted to save the profane yes?

He is talking about the painter George Catlin for who is interested.
How do you know
Who told you?

Campbells first book is the Skeleton Key to the Wake actually. He got monomyth from it and realized the heros journey in it.
Seemed like he was just starting to make his point with the myth when they cut it out :(
Exactly its bullshit!!
@@allinthemind2006 hahahah
The power of myth is on Netflix in case anyone would like to see the entire thing. Much recommended.

woah, thanks! :D

Nice thanks
Can't find it

Thanks for the post these are excellent. I am a huge fan of both the subject matter and Campbell!
Thank you very much
This man was the original Jordan Peterson, he talks about the same topics too.
Jordan’s work is greatly inspired by Campbell’s, this I believe to be true. The difference is Jordan has accepted his cult of personality as the “uncircumcised father” for many lost young (often white) men. Campbell strived to have an understanding of the divine masculine and feminine by searching far across the cross-cultural landscape of myth.
Peterson is ultimately fueled by his own ego - sorry, i can’t compare. Jordan is the academic Russel Brand, same Gemini energy.
@@crimepsychic2023 I've watched Peterson's videos back before he became very well known, I never got the impression that he was "fueled by his ego" and he had some very interesting ideas. Maybe he became this way now.
Why do I feel like I already have known this guy?
He was an extension of all that's the great in I AM.
You can't arrive at God within however you define that without walking through the shadows first this I know, I've experienced it first hand.
But dont be one of the nuthall saints plz
THANK YOU

@Iesu2012 what is the nature of this sacrifice? and by participant i assume you do not mean the victims but rather those performing the sacrifice?
Where can i watch the rest of this talk?
Amazing!!
He's talking about The Sun Dance Ceremonies!
The most Sacred Ritual by the Plains Native Indigenous Peoples.
Ritual suffering shows up when tribes become sedantary and lose their original way.
Absolutely not true in the slightest.
This, ritual needs a resurgence . ADOPT it to our land, country, borders and Tribes. We have been elusively contrived.
Although none of us remember being in heaven with God, we are basically the same inside, and our interests with it. I could see Joseph in heaven summing up what we were all doing around God, aside from those of us who where right up there with us.
