Bonus: Mystical Experience & The Hero Q&A

In this bonus episode, Joseph Campbell answers questions following the lecture that he gave with the same name from EP 25. The questions deal with the contrast of mystical experience in the east and west. Questions topics include: the meaning and definition of samadhi, how an eastern mystic compares to the western mystic, how a mystic in the western world acts in relation to institutions, the meaning of atonement. It ends with Campbell giving a short introduction to the Hero's Adventure. It was recorded in 1967 at the Esalen Institute in Big Sur, California.
