A Walk Through Hell

Post by transylvanian » Thu Oct 14, 2010 5:28 pm

Love conquers all (amor omnia vincit) is the theme, via the hero's journey, poss. as discussed in Joseph Campbell's The Hero with a Thousand Faces.
I mean, Max went to Sarah Lawrence c. this song, they push the comparative mythology there, Campbell was a prof there for a long time.
Highly recommended book, uplifting. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hero_w ... sand_Faces
Annyway, there are whole chapters on "the descent into hell" and "the hero as lover."
Love, it will not betray you, dismay or enslave you.
It will set you free. Be more like the man you were made to be.
There is a design, an alignment, a cry of my heart to see
the beauty of love as it was meant to be.
