THE HERO must venture forth from the world of commonsense consciousness into a region of supernatural wonder.There he encounters fabulous forces - demons and angels, dragons and helping spiritis. After a fierce battle, he wins a decisive victory over the powers of darkness. Then he returns from his mysterious adventure with the gift of knowledge or fire, which he bestows on his fellow man.
-- JOSEPH CAMPBELL, conversation with Sam Keen, Psychology Today
