The hero's journey is a well-known archetypal tale in mythology in
which the hero breaks out of tribal consciousness and the warm embrace of
mother nature, and forges an identity for himself as a
self-conscious individual. This he does by achieving some great deed which
often involves overcoming a fearsome monster. By differentiating himself from
the mass he blazes a trail for the whole of humanity to follow. This is what we
have been doing as a species throughout the period of recorded history and it
has brought us to where we are now.
