“The Hero’s Journey through Archetypes” with Manoj Chalam
summary
Manoj Chalam discusses the great mono-myth of the Hero’s Journey through the lens of Hindu and Buddhist archetypes, as well as his own life experiences. Some of you may recall Manoj was our very first interview guest, along with his wife Jytohi Chalam, two beloved Vedic philosophy teachers of our REAL Eyes Realize host, Christina Roberts Enneking. Jyothi’s soul has passed on as she has joined the great Atma (auspicious nature of consciousness), and Manoj discusses life after the passing of his life partner, among other topics.
This podcast episode touches upon beginning anew, moving beyond the past and focusing on the here and now. We discuss archetypes, storytelling, the “friend” spiritual guide, and how we collectively elevate one another in this lifetime. Expect philosophy, humor, psychology, neuroscience, casual dialogue, and deep insights to reflect upon in your own hero’s journey, in both the conscious and unconscious realms.
