Don't insult him =D

I liked the series, but I'm not hard core fan, so I'm just joking and increasing the greatness of Joseph :P
Check my channel and wait for It ;)
Also mine
Every time, EVERY SINGLE TIME, I listen to these videos or read his work I come away feeling like this man's insight and thoughts should be taught in school and repeated as often as required.
Just awe-inspiring...literally.
Oh yes, wouldn’t it wonderful if this was taught in schools.
4:10 - “It is one great dream dreamed by a single Being, but in such a way that all the dream characters dream too.” ― Arthur Schopenhauer
They are mostly inspired by Hindu or Dharma Philosophy.
Row row row your boat........ Life is just a dream, but, who's doing the dreaming... Mother earth is, I believe. And we all play our part. A never ending creation. And... When we die we go back to the earth.
@@grahamluna6935 mother earth is another child of nature. Whatever is dreaming is completely formless, it is all of nature itself
@@OrichalcumHammer Yes - Advaita (Non-dual) Vedanta 😊
Be careful not to mis-interpret Schopenhauer. The Will is not a ''Being'' nor is it conscious in itself. It simply is just striving activity. Consciousness/Awareness is secondary and Will primary.
I think this is my favorite episode, of all this wonderful series. And I love that little giggle he makes after he says Brahman.
What I find so marvelous about Joe is his obvious and contagious delight and joy with these ideas. What a man.
@@dugla 100% He changed my life when I was 20 years old and already jaded.
Nothing beats a Cosmic Giggle

And after pronouncing the Sanskrit with some care 😊

God is good. Indra's Net, web of Life. I am Thankful.

There was no one like Joe. I first met him in 80s. Still a force of nature now.
You're very lucky.
Every word he speaks is opening a door directly to spirit.
I mean an evil spirit. He was it seems a very intelligent man. But very evil it also seems and there is an Egyptian pyramid in the background which is related to darkness and the devil and hierarchical systems of oppression, crooked scales which the One True God hates, and the unbridled tyranny excess consumption and greed of capitalism. He even condescends to the interviewer while speaking about divine condescension toward man. Jesus washed the feet of His disciples. He’s speaking of another deity here and it’s the serpent. He seems a man of high ego and probably a very wilful and stubborn man at this and a carnal man and if a man should make an animal and a beast of himself and chooses curses and death over life what choice is there than for him to be bridled by what this man calls divinity. He may have very interesting thoughts to impart but it seems he led a life of excess and sin. He’s spreading a false doctrine here about brahman. He’s demon possessed and he can’t even quell the condescension for a televised interview. He’s channelling a dark and evil spirit at best here.
I was fortunate enough to have come from a family who let me read all his books as a young child… giving me a foundation i am so grateful for and to return home to again and again. Love JC.
Joseph is so connected. He blows me away
💜 Love Campbell and his work. Thank You for this gem.
You’re the awesome sauce in my mom’s spaghetti 🍝
Great interpretation , you bring the most too it .
@@Quidditashopeful thank you 😊
My friend gave me Campbell's book, "The Power of Myth," (published concurrently with this series hosted by Bill Moyers). Over the years I come back to it (and to these episodes from the PBS series) and I reflect on the passing of time, on the constancy of my seeking unity with the Universal Principle. // I am very fortunate to have had peak experiences in my life (as per Maslow) and to know their significance in the stream of days, months, years that I have lived. Those experiences have given me verification that the timeless is very real. Beyond the veil of daily life's seeming importance there is our true reality, always there if we allow ourselves to be present in a real sense.
Precisely , take the time to observe and notate the world unfolding around you , you will see the patterns that couldn't possibly happened by coincidence or chance - someone is directing your trajectory, and it ain't you who is that someone , as so many failed humans believe. I have a vey fulfilled life - despite myself .

Are we not powerful co-creators who, with our free will, can influence our trajectory?
@@donnawoodford6641 Sure , but you don't have the final say .

Mr. Joseph Campbell - the ultimate researcher and humble sharer of that research. Rest In Paradise.......
A true sage. His wisdom and the way he shares it is a gem for anyone wise enough to listen.
"... and nowhere else ... or everywhere else ..." Mind Blown. So good.

I love this man’s work ❤️🙏🏾
My father is in the twilight of his earthly existence, and I have this DVD set currently in the mail for him (Amazon thank you). I've sent him multiple small clips over the past 5 years on JC via YT, but he wept to me over the phone this week in appreciation of Chief Seattle's letter. As a casual fan myself, I recommend watching and/or reading Chief Seattle's letter, and pretty much anything Mr. Campbell references in this lengthy interview. I apologize for any spelling/grammatical errors I may have made here, I'm always nervous when posting on an erudite style YT Clip.
Could you instruct me how I could read this "Chief Seattle's letter? I would very much appreciate it, Thank You.

Chief Seattle's (or more correctly "Seathl") Letter to Washington:
"The President in Washington sends word that he wishes to buy our land. But how can you buy or sell the sky? the land? The idea is strange to us. If we do not own the freshness of the air and the sparkle of the water, how can you buy them?
Every part of the earth is sacred to my people. Every shining pine needle, every sandy shore, every mist in the dark woods, every meadow, every humming insect. All are holy in the memory and experience of my people.
We know the sap which courses through the trees as we know the blood that courses through our veins. We are part of the earth and it is part of us. The perfumed flowers are our sisters. The bear, the deer, the great eagle, these are our brothers. The rocky crests, the dew in the meadow, the body heat of the pony, and man all belong to the same family.
The shining water that moves in the streams and rivers is not just water, but the blood of our ancestors. If we sell you our land, you must remember that it is sacred. Each glossy reflection in the clear waters of the lakes tells of events and memories in the life of my people. The water's murmur is the voice of my father's father.
The rivers are our brothers. They quench our thirst. They carry our canoes and feed our children. So you must give the rivers the kindness that you would give any brother.
If we sell you our land, remember that the air is precious to us, that the air shares its spirit with all the life that it supports. The wind that gave our grandfather his first breath also received his last sigh. The wind also gives our children the spirit of life. So if we sell our land, you must keep it apart and sacred, as a place where man can go to taste the wind that is sweetened by the meadow flowers.
Will you teach your children what we have taught our children? That the earth is our mother? What befalls the earth befalls all the sons of the earth.
This we know: the earth does not belong to man, man belongs to the earth. All things are connected like the blood that unites us all. Man did not weave the web of life, he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself.
One thing we know: our God is also your God. The earth is precious to him and to harm the earth is to heap contempt on its creator.
Your destiny is a mystery to us. What will happen when the buffalo are all slaughtered? The wild horses tamed? What will happen when the secret corners of the forest are heavy with the scent of many men and the view of the ripe hills is blotted with talking wires? Where will the thicket be? Gone! Where will the eagle be? Gone! And what is to say goodbye to the swift pony and then hunt? The end of living and the beginning of survival.
When the last red man has vanished with this wilderness, and his memory is only the shadow of a cloud moving across the prairie, will these shores and forests still be here? Will there be any of the spirit of my people left?
We love this earth as a newborn loves its mother's heartbeat. So, if we sell you our land, love it as we have loved it. Care for it, as we have cared for it. Hold in your mind the memory of the land as it is when you receive it. Preserve the land for all children, and love it, as God loves us.
As we are part of the land, you too are part of the land. This earth is precious to us. It is also precious to you.
One thing we know - there is only one God. No man, be he Red man or White man, can be apart. We ARE all brothers after all."
(~December, 1854)
Once again, by chance(?) I hear what I need (wanted) to hear. It fits so perfectly with so many other things which I have been learning.
Me too. I am taking those/these moments as a sign I'm moving in direction that aligns with many layers of myself, be that in my subconscious and conscious, or things that are aspirational and elegantly simple. (I tried to retain from saying moving the 'right direction')
Don’t dwell on the past, but search for the eternal.
Brother Campbell has a passion for the beauty of life I can respect and admire
"One big symphony"
I could listen to Dr. Campbell all day long. So much valuable knowledge.
Always brilliant insight. Really need to get my hands on the entire Power of Myth series in VHS. Such an amazing cool person & ideas
It is available on dvd now, also. I found mine on Amazon for a pretty good price, but I can understand one not wanting to deal with the Bezos Empire. If you are unwilling to deal with Amazon, I suggest the websites of bookstores (if you have none local). Often they can even order for you through their own distributors. As a heads up: The 25th anniversary edition uses different images with the interviews than the original VHS (that set was given me in high school), but the interviews are the same.
A believer says he believes in God.
An atheist says he does not believe in God.
An enlightened person says "OH MY GOD!!!!!!!"
Time is irrelevent the only thing that matters is eternal now.Everything is there for you and because of you.
It is, though we may not yet see it, but it's just around the corner.?
I'm just curious about something, who came first, or consolidated all these historical ideas, myths and modern interpretations initially........, who came first......, Alan Watts or Joseph Campbell......???????
Just wondering and wandering....., out loud....!!!!!!!!
A real Guru
He is speaking like a yogi (an actual guru) in this video.
When you take acid or eat shrooms you step outside time.
You feel and know what eternity is.
Without a doubt
Does anyone know from what writing this Schopenhauer quote / idea is? I would love to read the whole thing.
Hi, hope you are well, in case you are still looking for an answer: the book is “The World as Will and Representation”. The specific passage can be found in Book 2, chapter 17, titled “on the vanity and suffering of life”
Simply beautiful!
Beautifully simple.?

4:44 The Holographic Universe
This sounds like textbook Advaita Vedanta, which is brilliant, I think 😊
JUST LOVE THIS!!!
It's not a deep yearning.
Once experiencing an epiphany it's that precise mountain top. Life did have an order.
It's an amazing experience never to be forgotten only to enrich, and add a precious shine which never dissipates. Lasting lifetimes. ❤
His description of the kinds of time is like Mircea Eliade. And his the Net of Indra is like michael Talbot’s Holographic Universe. 🙏🏼 Thank you and bless your soul Joseph Campbell.
Yeah, and we are the Avatars in this 3D Holodeck.
Nun aber, da der Teppich meines Lebens flach aufgerollt ist fast bis an sein Ende,
zeigt sich ein Muster, das ihm ferne Hände seit langem bunt und kunstvoll eingewebt.
Das seltsame Geflecht von Tag und Jahr, auf einmal liegt es vor mir, rund und klar.
(Mascha Kaléko)
This man has accessed the cosmic consciousness. We all have the ability. The paradigm is changing. We are on the cusp of ascending to next level.
Maravilloso.. q gran pensador... cada video suyo es una " palmada" a la conciencia transcendental.
Holy shit . Wonderful,Mind blowing and Marvelous information you are sharing. Keep sharing ❤. This is really amazing.
Beautiful
I wish Joseph Campbell was my grandpa.
Thank you Bill Moyers for introducing me to Joseph Campbell back in 1988.🤟
The Hero with a Thousand Faces had been aroung for a long time before that, and i didn't know about it until Mr. Bill Moyers introduced me to it.Thank you!
Time is a construct
A human construct. Do those in other Universes have the concept of time?🤔
@@donnawoodford6641 probably. I would say yes. Their own. Whatever they want they probably can create.
I am just trusting in my Lord Jesus.
Humans have a hard “time” staying strong all the time.
I ask for forgiveness for all my sins.
Jesus is Holy and I Give My Life to and for the church and I trust that the things I do not understand will be made clear by God at exactly the right now. As in now to now I trust Him.
Damn! He busts out Brahman 2 seconds in!
💎💜
Timeless..
I'm coming soon with a video about Infinity ;)
Great channel! Thank you JCF, YT and AdBlock, uBlock and fuck you commercials.
If you don't experience it now you'll never gonna get it
💯% true
"It" meaning eternity, right? Is infinity synonymous with Eternity? And Everlasting refers to the time spent in Heaven, a part of Eternity. That's what I understood.
Wow!
Ian McGilchrist has lots of good things to say about this topic. Check him out. I admire deeply Joseph Campbell's work but he was a confusing teacher.
This man is a true Gem. Thank You.
Gracias por estos videos, son perlas de sabiduría! ✨👁️✨
Subtítulos en español por favor! 🙏🏼
What an absolute pure being
I watched this as a teen when it aired and although I didn’t understand it all, I recognized truth. I bought the series years later. I’m delighted to see it here. 💖
I love this man!
The shimmering unfolding
Hi 👋🏽 lol
OMNIPRESENCE is the ONLY PRINCIPLE! INFINITE OMNIPRESENCE!!
You may call it GOD!!
Brahman is that because of which I know what I experience and know. Brahman is that because of which observation is possible. It’s the innermost Self of all the apparent selves.
Beautiful, really really beautiful
Wow, Joseph Campbell's interviews have the highest wisdom per minute ratio of anything out there. I get something new each time I rewatch them.
Lol paycheck guy can't understand Divine guy. Empire vs Jedis. Here we are again, most profoundly.
Now a days people falsel think the realities can't all agree,
Proud to be indian 🦚🦚 Hare Krishna ❤❤
What is he talking about? I'm pretty intelligent and I'm not getting it. Like talking in circles or contradicting himself. Please, someone break this down. Thank you.
Edit: The last part makes sense.
I have a feeling that the average viewer would find this all gobbledigoop - utterly incomprehensible. Campbell is so conversant with the ultimate mystery of religion/spirituality, that he's not expressing it in a way that helps the average man in the street. He jumps from one set of terminologies & traditions to another, using specialized term after term that most folks won't know. And although Bill Moyers is doing his best to follow the words _logically,_ I don't think he's doing much better - too much legacy American religion weighing down his mind. Most of us experience the same road block, I bet. Whether we're 'religious' or not, most of us are trapped in our post-Enlightenment logical materialism. Our era and culture indoctrinate us into the conviction that anything that's beyond ration is simply... irrational (= nonsense). :^/
The love we share never goes away…
I'm glad I know Jesus personally and that He is not the author of confusion. But Campbell is deeply trying to talk himself into his own ideas about reality! After over 40 years in social sciences, I still find New Age Occult ideas to be more entertaining than Disney, but both use the imagination!
I'm 30 and i came to realize everything he is say.
True Light contains Dark Matter!.. 💪❤️🔥💪⚖️👽
If you ever wondered what an enlightened being looked like then look no further than Joseph Campbell
That is why George Lucas call upon him @ Lucas Ranch before he made Star Wars ...
In my opinion, the eternal principle is Love.
The reason is that God limits itself as Man, as Woman, as Life, so not to be alone.
Just try explaining this.
Not easy.
Aquinas? This vindicates St. Gregory Palamas. Absolute divine simplicity leads to an impersonal God.
It’s up to each and everyone to experience Heaven on earth…OR ???hell
I love this man. ❤
Can anyone answer who Joyce is? Is it James Joyce?
Also Joe is fantastic.

“The Already, But Not Yet” 🙏🏻
Gave me lots to think about, and I love that!
Who f in between thy comment border why is intruding on the Maine frame
If only he had lived long enough to be interviewed by Rogan
Joseph would have got on well with Sadhguru 💫🏹🙏
Possibly... But Campbell wasn't a big fan of the "guru" concept.
Sadhguru is a fraud and a regurajatator
That may have been spell ed wrong.
@@shotjohnny He sure speaks like one here though, and even kicks off with the Bramanic concept. I have read different places where he places high value on Indian thought. Yes, that doesn't mean that some gurus cannot be charlatans. Actually in this video he seems to talk more like a guru, than not.
@@tayrowell Campbell speak here as a great teacher, which he was, not as a guru, so I disagree there with you. And just because he starts off with the concept of Brahman in this bit (these interviews were hours long), doesn't mean that he was favorable to the idea of a guru. He said in his lectures that there are few gurus that are the "real" ones (he even visited with one when he was in India), but overall he was vehemently against the concept of a guru, because gurus are suppose to represent the "end" of a teaching and students are not encourage to find their OWN way; they are simply to follow the guru's path. And Campbell was HUGE proponent of EACH finding THEIR OWN way.
@@shotjohnny I have read in books about his respect for the religions of the East, very pointedly, Hinduism (Advaita Vedanta (in particular), and Buddhism. So, I do not see it your way based on his words. You can't be against all gurus and take that position. I agree with you that he championed finding your own way. I also think alot of gurus are charlatans even though I have high respect for the Upanishads and the Bhagavad Gita. These works are written by gurus and transmitted by them, though.
WOW
This guy was hardcore INFJ!❤❤❤
@JackAnthony-jz6il Sure, we can probably be friends. Can I know a little bit more about you? How old are you and where do you live?
to always live beside everything that has been.
I love this place! 💖✨
JC is why im switched ON
God Rest Dr. Campbell's soul in Eternity so he doesn't have to come back for the god-forsaken masses.
The Golden Rule has always been The Golden Path to experiencing Divinity until we're called from this world.
Loved ones I've lost remind me in my dreams. It is about love and watching for the vice, vanity and iniquity in us.
Jung had seen from his dreams and his patients that The Hero (has) A Thousand Faces, who is there to help us.
Jung kept a crucifix to help him and his patents in their dark moments. Someday, we will return to The Eternal Dream.
Interesting anecdote on Jung carrying a crucifix. Where’d you hear/that (have a source)?
"the God-forsaken masses" -- such a potent phrase, the hopeless heaviness of it everywhere as we go through life.
But there are pools of light in this darkness that we know so well. I was thinking of Patti Smith's documentary video. At the end she says (maybe referring to the death of her husband Fred "Sonic" Smith) "He is not dead. He doth not sleep. He hath awakened from the dream of life."
Excellent... thanks 🙏
