You must return with the bliss and integrate it.
Joseph Campbell, Mythologist and author of
Hero with a Thousand Faces
“This is a favorite quote for me, one that I hold in my heart and try to live by. It is one of the less familiar quotes by Joseph Campbell. So many are familiar with “follow your bliss” but I think that’s really Part One. This is Part Two which is to discover that inner joy, follow that in life, and stay in touch with the truth of your being. But it’s not just for our own self, for our own joy, it’s about bringing that joy to the world. In my tradition of Kriya Yoga, the teacher and guru of Paramahansa Yogananda, whose name is Swami Sri Yukteswar, told Yogananda ‘Self realization, (meaning capital S), knowing this truth of your being is not a selfish realization.’”
