11. MYTHOLOGY, INSPIRING STORIES AND POETRY

Bach, Richard -- Jonathan Livingston Seagull -- 1973 -- A great little tale about spiritual vision, commitment, practice, attainment, and sharing the gift.
Brunton, Paul -- A Search in Secret India --  1934 -- The 1935 classic that introduced Ramana Maharshi and yoga to a large audience the West, influencing millions.
Campbell, Joseph -- Hero with a Thousand Faces -- 1949 -- The classic work on the hero's journey - the blueprint found in the stories and myths of every culture throughout history. Campbell reveals our universal need for a vision of our journey to the Truth. In our stories, it is always a journey of awakening,  either literally or through metaphor.
Campbell, Joseph -- The Inner Reaches of Outer Space -- 1986 -- Campbell's last book, viewing the exploration of outer space in the technological age as an inner journey. He points to the obvious need in modern society for an inner purpose, and to the need for a new mythology that will give us purpose as we race head-long into the 21st century.
Campbell, Joseph -- Thou Art That -- 2001 -- A post-humous compilation of writings, looking at the Judeo-Christian tradition through the eyes of the great Joseph Campbell.
Campbell, Joseph with Bill Moyers -- The Power Myth -- 1988 -- The popular television series - Conversations between Campbell and Moyers. The book is good -- the DVD is better.
Fagles, Homer and Knox -- The Odyssey -- 1999 -- Homer's classic Greek story of the epic journey homeward of the famous hero, Odysseus.
Gibran, Kahlil -- The Madman -- 1918 -- The great Lebanese poet in his youth - an unbridled expression of a passionate inner life.
Gibran, Kahlil -- The Prophet -- 1923 -- The most famous and widely read of great Lebanese poet's books, and for good reason.
Gibran, Kahlil -- Sand and Foam -- 1926 -- Short verses of revelation from the great poet.
Gibran, Kahlil -- Secrets of the Heart -- 1931 -- Stories on society and religion.

Spalding, Baird T -- Life and Teaching Of the Masters of the Far East (6 volumes) -- 1924 -- The marvelous story of the author's encounters with enlightened yogis in the Far East. Some of the events challenge the imagination of what is real, but it is great inspiration anyway.
