yea, seek ye out of the best books words of wisdom;
seek learning, even by study and also by faith."

Supernatural Aid

I - Departure
    3 - Supernatural Aid

"For those who have not refused the call, the first encounter of the hero journey is with a protective figure....

"What such a figure represents is the benign, protecting power of destiny....protective power is always and ever present within the sanctuary of the heart and even immanent within, or just behind, the unfamiliar features of the world.  One only has to know and trust, and the ageless guardians will appear.  Having responded to his own call, and continuing to follow courageously as the consequences unfold, the hero finds all the forces of the unconscious at his side.  Mother Nature herself supports the mighty task."

Joseph Campbell
