4.+What+does+Joseph+Campbell+have+to+say+about+Islam?

In the book "The Power of Myths" Joseph Campbell is discussing how he thinks Islam beliefs influence the world. On page 141 of The Power of Myth Joseph Campbell says, " Muhammad was an illiterate camel-caravan master. But every day he would leave his home in Mecca...and go out to a mountain cave and meditate." " That, of course, is a normal experience. It isn't always so much that the world doesn't want the gift, but that it doesn't know how to receive it and how to institutionalize it." What Joseph Campbell is referring to as "the gift" is the gift of meditation and of peace that the world needs, but that Joseph Campbell thinks that the world doesn't know how to accept peace and meditation.Muhammad delivers that gift of peace to the people in the Islamic religion.
