AI say:

The "Zoroastrian hero's journey" centers on the prophet Zarathushtra (Zoroaster), whose life story, particularly from his birth at age 25 through his receiving revelation and eventual assassination, contains elements of a hero's journey such as a calling, trials, and a triumphant but ultimately tragic end, as documented in texts like the Dēnkard and the Zardukhsht nāmag. His journey demonstrates the struggle against evil, exemplified by his opposition to older cults and his struggle with demon-like beings and evil thoughts, culminating in the establishment of Zoroastrianism.

Confucius's life can be framed within Joseph Campbell's Monomyth or "hero's journey" archetype, as a psychological and philosophical exploration rather than a physical one. He experienced stages of leaving his "ordinary world," embarking on a "journey" of self-discovery through his travels and teachings, and returning to benefit society by sharing his wisdom. His journey is less about fantastical quests and more about the internal realization and alignment of the psyche, ultimately benefiting the collective by promoting virtue and good order.

 

[Sharma Ji]

Applying Joseph Campbell's monomyth to Prophet Muhammad's life involves interpreting his narrative as a symbolic hero's journey with a call to adventure (divine revelation), a departure to the unknown (Hijra to Medina), facing trials and building a community of allies, and ultimately a return and triumph in establishing Islam. This mythological lens frames Muhammad's life, from his revelation in the wilderness to his return to Mecca, as a transformative journey to spread a message and establish a new spiritual order.
---------------------
The hero's journey is an organized pattern that unfolds the character development and presents his moral inclination. Hence, it is concluded that Jesus Christ as a hero fits within the framework presented by Joseph Campbell.
----------------------
Sri Ram's hero's journey describes Prince Rama's epic quest, as told in the Ramayana, to rescue his wife Sita from the demon king Ravana, fulfilling his duty, and re-establishing righteousness. This journey involves departure from his kingdom, facing trials and battles with mythical creatures, receiving aid from allies like Hanuman and Sugriva, and culminates in his triumph and return to Ayodhya as a celebrated king. The tale embodies the eternal battle between good and evil, serving as a classic example of the hero's journey narrative structure.

The hero's journey, overarching theme across religious traditions. Characters like Sri Ram epitomize it.

Ok.

I realise that talking religion and civilisation and history and specifics of anthropology and eschatology and the clash of civilizations is wasted on you.

The autobiography deals with transformation of Mumtaz Ali Khan into Sri M as he went on acquiring profound knowledge of the Upanishads, deep personal insights and a higher level of consciousness. Descriptions on the beneficial effects of yoga, meditation and metaphysics are fascinating. Sri M is often termed as modern day Kabir Das.
