From part of 2 of the excellent Bill Moyers special, Joseph Campbell and the Power of Myth, courtesy of PBS. Please consider supporting your local PBS station.
The 'Vishwakarma' is not just a carpenter, he is the supreme god of craftmanship. He is considered as the divine engineer or architect of the universe. Whose ultimate creative power hold together the universe. The five prime craftmen communities(who are considered as the direct descendants of Vishwakarma's 5 sons) worship him viz. the carpentors, the blacksmiths, the goldsmiths, the metal casters and the stonemasons. My family are the descandents of the blacksmiths.
but do you understand the power of myth or are you consumed by it ... there is a reason the following are ALL mentioned i.e. carpentors, the blacksmiths, the goldsmiths, the metal casters and the stonemasons HOWEVER it is easy to illustrate they ALL descended from the weavers and potters ... at37.wordpress.com/2018/09/26/the-chiral-and-achiral-rosetta-stone-fractal-mandala/ very very easy to see ... IF ... your mind and heart is open
Yes brother, he (Vishwakarma) is the supreme architect of the gods just as for demons maya is the architect (not be confused with maya of the Lord , i.e. the illusionary energy of the Lord that bewilders everyone From Lord Brahma to Ants)
@@islandbuoy4 Dude, these are beliefs or mythological concepts. Nobody is being dead serious about these to be the actual history. These beliefs just indicate the vibrancy and literary depth of the culture you belong to. And, its gives some sense of inner strength when you believe that your family line have a historical legacy. Plus its way better to pay attention to eastern spirituality or religious concepts rather than being devoted to some middle eastern dudes who are thought to be "messengers" of God.
I think Campbell is referring to the Brahma Vaivarta Purana, which tells this story. It's not from the upanishads. Yet his power of narration / story telling is very impressive. ❤️
There is an Indra in the Upanishads, i forget which one, but he and another god or character approach a master to ask him questions and Indra returns a few times after pondering on the answers they got. I think the questions was something as simple as "What is Brahman?"
-- I went to Catholic grade school. When I was in second or third grade I looked up into the clouds and thought about what the nuns told me: If was good, I'd go to heaven where I'd be happy forever. My next thought was: But then I'd be bored. I was on the correct path but didn't know it at the time.
I’m glad you did highlight this part and not the following one (here is the place to have that experience). If that was the highlight it could be read as another one of those "it’s all here and now, get your cup full” statements where practical atheism is masked as spirituality. But this is… well, something else! It got me instantly. Such a beautiful way to put it. It’s only beautiful if it’s true, though. Like the other fella said “let’s see what happens”. Cheers
I could listen to Joseph Campbell *all day long* ... and sometimes I do just that. That last part: "In heaven you'll be having such a marvelous time looking at God that you won't get your own experience at all. That’s not the place to have it. Here’s the place to have the experience. … Here and now.” *Brilliant!!!*
As a Hindu, I'm advising you, if you want to learn about Lord Indra, never refer to the Puranas. They paint a very bad picture of Indra. The vedas are the best place to look for him. You will start appreciating him then.
I am sure you are correct. Joseph Campbell used this to make a point relevant to the Westerm audience and interviewer. Interviewer uncomfortable if you notice.
U did nt get either puranas or vedas Its not about good and bad pre buddhist hinduism vedas glorified the valour of indra, victory of indra. But post buddhist world of india inner mind has been given more importance thus warmongering virile indra's popularity declined due to his insecurity, thus wise God vishnu and shiva cult got risen
It would be nice if we do not issue sermons "as Hindu" and introduce dogmas when none exists in the spirit of Hinduism.This is about flowering of ones imagination, creativity, exploration and above all being open. Joseph Cambell's words are his own and thats a good thing.
Like all higher beings, Indra is a mix of good and bad. On one hand he is a fierce and righteous warrior and noble king of the heavens, on the other hand he is a booze chugging womanizer who likes to party wild and hard. He is the representation of the dualities that exist in all humans, even though he may not be human.
He destroyed the heavens in his last sentences in the video and he makes sense as well. This is the time to experience and reach varying levels of consciousness. Some people prefer the internal way and the others go out in their daily routine to experience the same bliss in varying degrees that is there for all of us.
thank you. joseph campbell is a hero of mine. i smile to see him here again. i was blessed to have heard him talk to a small gathering, nearly 40 years ago. truly being in his presence and hear him speak of the wisdom he'd acquired, was pure joy.
Joseph Campbell was brilliant, and wise. His books are a must read for everyone, you will see yourself, humanity, and the universe differently. Wonderful scholar, and person with deep understanding.
I had spent years studying yoga and Hinduism to no avail. Back in '87 when this first aired suddenly this brilliant man brought to life all these incredible mythologies, made them real and understood, significant and invaluable to our everyday lives.
@@ashishbhargava4159 and @VIKRAM PAUL If you think of it as 'history' you are likely to use it to build your own ego; whereas if you think of it as 'mythology', you can use it to overcome your ego and attain moksha. Your choice. Mano matra jagataha
Wow I'm now 65 and I'm now facing what to do with my life. I have thought of casting off all the material energy I have surrounded myself with to go off into the womb of the forest, but that desire may just be me not facing my true self. Interesting.
Don't worry there are millions of life/births we are into the world. Say thanks to the god for starting to seek the truth, now you will only go upstairs on spiritual path
I hear self-doubt and self-deprecation in your words Laurie. What if 'going off into the womb of the forest' - in whatever form this may take, IS your way of 'facing your true self'? What if this desire (which you doubt) is your soul's calling to you? Surely in a state of retreat, stillness and contemplation we are able to go within and hear the voice of inner guidance and truth. Now more than ever this is the very best thing we can do!
Actually 2 important things I would like to touch upon 1. Just look for difference between Bramhan and Bramha 2. When he said about years it means vaidic year which is different then the human years .
Hindu mythology is much more intresting huge diverse and realistic compared to some of modern times greatest fiction/fantasy creator like george rr martin jrr tolkien amd cs lewis
The star wars force, the djed, is ancient knowledge. Repackaged for the twenty century. The Death Star is a representation of one of saturns moons. Tolkien s trilogy is about Saturn, the one ring to rule them all, speaks of the Zodiac. Three types of astrology, tropical, sidereal and Saturnian is the only true astrology. Nothing new under the sun, just new ways to confound and confuse the people.
Sanatana Dharma, meaning the Eternal Way/Order/System/Foundation, is the original name of Hinduism. Sanatan dharma is not a religion..it is way of life..Dharma and religion are different things...when krishna talk about saving dharma he was not talking about saving hinduism, he was talking about right deeds. Sanatan dharma was there when no religion existed. nobody founded sanatan dharma like other religions. Hinduism is the westernised version of sanathana Dharma. Hinduism was probably the name given by ancient invaders.
So beautiful. !! These are all metaphorically narrated in texts to give moral wisdom . To understand this takes a different level of consciousness which we lack today in the material world.
love your life as it comes, struggle, fight & win. Winning is important with accordnce to law of universe and not against it , loved the idea of the man joseph campbell
All religions 👉 (paths created by a certain person) can laugh on *Many Gods* of Hindus... but but.. In Hinduism ..the ultimate is the ' Infinite consciousness...' ..infinite as thy sky itself.. " Brahm " or *Om* 🕉️..." meaning infinite eternal existence which a Hindu chants while praying to any diety like Ram, Krishna or Shiv . While praying or doing Yoga.. Om is chanted. Om 🕉️ is called to be the most fundamental sound produced by every particle in space (yes, there is no air in space.. but ocean of quantum particles exists everywhere). Once read silently about Hinduism & get deep look in this matter. In Hinduism.. the soul is consciousness which take births in all species including human, animals, birds, plants , insects, etc. ....which on reaching higher platform.. becomes a angel or God, Goddess (Gods are high posts reached by pure beings for certain time from where they can look after general human and other beings and try to prevent mishappenings) ...and when it is trapped badly by his/her own emotions & tries to go against the laws of nature to fulfill its desires... it unknowingly becomes a ghost 👻 for certain time. And soul is not created by any God , but it is a part of the "ultimate consciousness" and it exists from time eternal. It is inseparable from infinite consciousness like a part of sky can't be separated from the rest sky. In fact.. when one thinks deeply then one can feel that consciousness can't be created by another consciousness. No there is no god or Goddess etc. who has created other beings. If we exists today... then we must be existing before present and after... we must be existing from time eternal to upcoming forever. When you see in eye of a innocent baby, person, cat or other being.. You may feel that the soul existing in it cannot be created by someone else & there is something (soul or consciousness ) in those eyes which should and can't die even after the death of the body. And even God is not personalized in Hinduism(the Sanatan dharma or the eternal way)... it is the ultimate consciousness itself.. infinite as sky. Hinduism is not a religion.. it has no founders, no particular holy book, it existed in ancient times all over the world (there are thousands of proofs being found in excavations) . And today's Quantum physics is forced to accept the existence of the ultimate consciousness. Hindu dharma or the eternal path is simply bowing to the 'ultimate consciousness' acting on living beings as forces of nature, which makes us feel its existence as our inner consciousness. Consciousness is existence.. all matter and energies are its passive and active expressions ! Do you believe that in the beginning of the universe.... there must not be a single particle present in space(opposite to both Big Bang & The Steady state theory). Either everywhere was empty space or everywhere was matter. I mean to say simply that whatever ' Existed' must be existing everywhere. It can't be that naturally at one place there was space and at other place was a 'small particles of matter'. Everywhere should & must naturally be the same. If automatically most of place was Empty Space... Then why why.. at some tiny place there was a ' lump of matter' ?? No matter how much mathematics or physics one knows... but if he can't himself get this point... He is a ridiculous person . Scientists have " brain + accumulated knowledge that was searched by previous scientists" .... but that doesn't means what I am telling is hard or wrong to understand. First be simple... and then try to apply intelligence from the root of consciousness..... and one will know much about the core of the natural existence. I will explain by an example... If I am in a forest.. I knows naturally what things may be around me on, above or below the ground (& how I have to act). Only to know particular incidents we need information, details of that incident.(like.. in left side of me, may be at a distance of about 80 metres.. a fox has has just killed a rabbit.... this only I can't know simply by intelligence... but for it I have to get information about it may be by hearing a sound and moving to some distance in that direction.) we need information, details of that particular incident. But to know the basic core of existence... one should have silent deep instinct consciousness... for it reveals to us simple logic leading to the basic or ultimate thing which must exists by its own (without any cause or incident leading to its formation). But scientists are trying to reach that point by observing incidents happening in universe. But they can never reach so called basic fundamental particle or core of existence.. since however small the basic particle may be.. it will have shape (round, etc.) and size.. and then questions will arise that how it has that shape, .. from how much time does it has that size and shape.. billions, trillions of years or forever.. if forever then how it was fixed that it will have that size and shape only.. why from forever at some place there was blank emptiness and at some places there were 'somethings' other than blankness.. I mean matter !! ( 'All' energies and waves are nothing but movement of particles {material or smaller quantum particles, etc.} in so called emptiness of space, field is nothing but area being affected by a particle). Suppose we can somehow be able to see (or know) everything.. not only atoms, quarks, photons, dark matter xyz, etc.. but the smallest or basic particle or the thing which really exists.... then think.... At any place there can be something or nothing.. 'anything which will have form or shape' will be surrounded either by something other.. or total blank emptiness. So why there was at some place blank emptiness and at some places there were something rather than nothing?, how the shape and size of that something was fixed?, how can those basic things or particles etc could affect other things?, they can atmost collide with others but can't attract or repel or apply any force .. since there will be nothing but blank emptiness between them!, many more unanswerable questions will arise like what really is difference between that something which exists and nothing which surrounds the something.. why both exist..even when there was none to decide what will exist and where that something and where that nothing will exist. It is simple that whatever(something or totally nothing) exist from forever without any reason will exist everywhere and forever. If nothing exists everywhere.. then who are we here thinking about this all..!!.. means something exists without any cause or reason, from forever, everywhere. Then what is reality..??!!!!.. all things we are seeing having shape are not real.. since on reaching deep we see there can be no boundary, colours are just illusion, things which we can touch.. and the blank emptiness which we can't are and must be the same. So all things are nothing but the same.. just one thing. Although there is nothing (like world appears to be) , although all is illusion, imaginary, although we are seeing, touching, feeling everything which doesn't have any meaning of itself.. then why are we are in illusion (since things look so real)... It is itself the answer of all.. that yes.. consciousness exists...... we exist . I know this all by deep thinking.. searching for reason. questions after questions raised in my mind.. and while thinking deeply on facts.. I wrote almost two thick notebooks. If anyone has some questions.. can ask me. *And I know this all is in Vedas from time unknown.* A song in Rigveda.... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zW2c1SPyy6I.html Now the Quantum Mechanics is indicating scientists to move intellect towards Insight.

Great man. He also wrote books exposing the claimed uniqueness of the Jesus story (there were many other versions of that myth decades and centuries before Jesus' supposed existence), and Joseph Campbell was also one of the first writers to expose Josef Stalin.

This clip of Campbell ends with, “Here and now” - I recall reading Aldous Huxley’s book, “Island”, in which mynah birds flew about calling out that same phrase, to remind the islanders to be mindful in the present moment.
The experience he speaks of at the end of this marvellous video is in fact Anubhava knowledge~experience. This is available for any qualified or ripe person. The I is then known to be the sentient living principle and the body/mind/senses/world picture is known to be an inert appearance only. This is both what is and the WAY.
Indra and zeus are one and the same person both killed sea serpent monster both build places on mountain(Olympus) both use weapon as thunderbolt and hammer both were the kings for god and so on
Barry Woods brahman means that which is infinite , and growing, in samskrtam. A-brahman would mean => NOT-Brahman in samskrtam. The “A” as a prefix is a simple negation. So either they are completely different words, or, A-Brahman means a philosophy and a people completely opposed , consciously, to the philosophy of the followers of Brahman. I think the latter is the case. Vedic philosophy and the upanishads do not separate the creator from the created- they look past duality.

Over lunch the deacon explained that he had studied at the University of Chicago under Campbell’s friend, the anthropologist Mircea Eliade. The deacon informed me that on his deathbed Joseph Campbell asked for a Catholic priest and was reconciled with the church of his childhood.
Another deathbed story... After all the research he made, all the conclusions he reached, suddenly, just because he's dying, he would "convert". Catholicism is but one of the many interpretations of reality, you're free to follow what you want, in the same way that any other person, including those who already died and aren't here to defend themselves from such claims. Needing to agree with your religion tells much about you and catholics in general, not about Joseph Campbell. Such an egoistic point of view, while he was so broadly accepting the different ways in which humans explained and expressed the perennial reality.
Correction..life of a Brahma is not 432,000 years. It is much much longer. 108 mahayugas is half day for Brahma. Each maha yuga consists of 4 yugas. Kaliyuga is shortest, which is 432,000 years. Longest krutayuga is more than 1.7 mn years. And each Brahma lives 100 years. 100 brahmas make half a day for Vishnu. And 100 years for Vishnu, is 1 second for Shiva, that is when he opens his third eye. Fun fact: Ramayana happened in 13th mahayuga (threthayuga) of this cycle.And, we are in 17th mahayuga.

Great video. However, Indra is hardly the Vedic equivalent of the Abrahamic God. He's the Vedic cognate of Zeus/Odin+Thor. The God of Storms and Thunder, and The King of the Gods (hence why Thor+Odin). And much like his Pre-Christian European cognates, the slayer of the Serpent of the Seas - Vritra (cognate with Jormungandr).
well...in some theories the abrahamic god, at least in part, evolves out of a cananite storm god i want to say, evidenced by the parts of the old testament which refer to god as dwelling on the mountain top
The depiction of Vishwakarma here is eerily similar to that of a Mughal statesman. Even the devas shown in court of Indra have a similar appearance. The facial features and dressing style shown here are uncharacteristic, to say the least, for a Hindu deity. Looks like the artist took some creative freedom in mixing up cultures and timelines here :)
Abhishek Chakraborty well that's India for ya the conquerors becomes the conquered in India maybe the artist is showing eventually all those who come into India wether they come in peace or not in time they would be absorbed in the tolerant crucible of HINDUISIM
Questions for Hindu scholars is Brahma a god of all and is Indra not really a person but a like god entity that lives is side of all man??? Kind of like a holly spirit in a way I’m curious to know thanks
Yeah you can imagine it that way as well, its all about the origin, the creation ,the function and the end of creation....then the cycle repeats! Brahma, the creator, Vishnu the preserver, Shiva the destroyer.
What a sad state of a country has this become I'm getting this knowledge from a person from away who studied it. It's not a bad thing at all.
