 The Hero's Journey [59:40m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download (925)
We are continuing our conversations with our dear teacher and friend Paul Rebillot on the topic of the Healing Theater - the combination of acting and drama, mythology, gestalt therapy, and rituals. For more information about Paul and his work, please visit his website - Direct Impact Creativity.
In this segment, Paul describes the cornerstone of his work - the Hero’s Journey.
- The story of Cú Chulainn - the Hound of Culain
- The rite of passage
- The “mini-schizophrenic episode”
- The call to adventure
- First level of resistance: The world, people around you
- Help from a peer, a friend
- Moving into the non-linear, circular path
- The daemon of resistance
- Magical help, magical object
- Hero and Hera
- The Threshold - the Demon of Resistance
- The personal, inner level of resistance
- The Land of Miracles
- More tests on the way
- The Supreme Ordeal
- Place of the reward
- Return to the real world
- Hero cannot stay in the land of miracles - has to come back
- Cannot take your gift back; you can only take the awareness or knowledge of the gift.
- Leave the magical powers behind, and takes the knowledge.
- Alignment of the three centers
- Body (movement), Heart (feelings), Head (symbol, word)
- Interpretation of Myth
- Myth as a symbol for the mind; the mind finds the meaning in symbol that resonates with the heart and the body
- On Oriental traditions
- Becoming conscious of one’s gift - often comes from the spirit guide
- On spirituality
- Origins of the Hero’s Journey process
- A “mini-schizophrenic episode” for doctors and nurses in a mental hospital
- Separation from the archetype - returning home

This Series with Paul Rebillot is really fascinating. I think the black cat with a butterfly means that the cat felt the presence of someone, and wanted to be near the Guru.
Something clicked for me, when I realized I have had an adventure in the past 7 or 10 years.. In fact, life is much more adventurous, and its Heraic Journeys more numerous, in fact, each moment is a creation and destruction of immediate universes… Each nanofiber in a cells’ structure hold IMHO universei, and so, we scale our perception on our quest gradually to perceive these worlds.
