Reply To: The Inner Reaches of Outer Space is Within Reach,” with Dennis Slattery, Ph.D”
Here was one experience that brought home what I had been reading of Campbell.
I saw a statue of Christ at the movie theater with his arms opened, palms facing forward. This particular image of Jesus I have probably seen hundred times but this time my reaction to it was directly influenced by Campbell. For some reason I didn’t look at this image as a man from history but he showed up instead as symbolically representing how much God loves me (us). Then I felt God’s love and God’s presence in the room or should I say felt it within myself.
Best,
Lee Klotz
