I thought it was included in Creative Mythology alas I cannot seem to find it. I may be misremembering. Appreciate your time and attention to my inquiry. Hi Mega...

Campbell recalled that as he emerged from a banquet he was approached by a member of a religious cult who asked, "Do you believe in God?" Campbell replied, "Young man, I don't think you know the implications of that question. I'm acquainted with hundreds of gods. (But) I think I know the one you're...

Faolan, In Reflections on the Art of Living ( pgs 226-227), Campbell says: The question that comes - always, always, always - is: "What about the woman's journey?"

Re: Mythos II episode 2
And a bit further on mister Campbell talks about 'Cassiopa' (I think it is) who represents the esoteric in buddhism. I couldn't find anything that relates to that name, so I think I got the spelling of that name wrong also,... Freerk, I think it's Kasyapa (also Mahakasyapa or Mahakashyapa). He was ...

Hi Freerk,
Perhaps Campbell was referring to the whole picture when he said "...and you see the whole thing..." For example, something like the drawing All Is Vanity (1892) by Charles Allan Gilbert.
