I find it interesting that the original "Star Wars" movie was shaped, in part, by ideas described in The Hero With a Thousand Faces and other works of Campbell's.

Is this the same Joseph Campbell who wrote about the importance of myths and legends? This is good stuff.

Interesting! Yet, it is by uplifting the sorrowful that bliss is achieved, both for the helped and the helper!

The ubiquitous is the Oneness behind all diversities, and experiencing which all that are fractious become equable. This can come only when one learns to "participate joyfully in the sorrows of the world". Excellent teaching, Nita. This one line has sttod out for me.

Nita, what a fantastic effort! I love to take works and put them together to make an awesome poem! You have succeeded admirably! I found this: 

Beyond the world of opposites is an unseen,
but experienced, unity and identity in us all.

I love this couplet! sam  I owe you  I will get to it soon!
