When you realize that eternity is right here now, that it is within your possibility to experience the eternity of your own truth and being, then you grasp the following: That which you are was never born and will never die. . . . (90)
Joseph CampbellA sound precipitates air, then fire, then water and earth- and that's how the world becomes.
Joseph CampbellChristianity isnโt moving peopleโs lives today. Whatโs moving peopleโs lives is the stock market and the baseball scores. What are people excited about? Itโs a totally materialistic level that has taken over the world. There isnโt even an ideal that anybodyโs fighting for.
Joseph CampbellCould God exist if nobody else did? No. Thatโs why gods are very avid for worshipers. If there is nobody to worship them, there are no gods. There are as many gods as there are people thinking about God. In choosing your god, you choose your way of looking at the universe. There are plenty of Gods. Choose yours. The god you worship is the god you deserve.
