Why did the chicken cross the road?
Joseph Campbell:
In primitive cultures, we can find many such examples of the chicken motif
that cannot be dismissed as mere coincidence.
For instance, I am reminded of an old Navajo legend in which a buffalo
crosses a stream to "come" to the other side -- an obvious negative
language devised to prepare tribesmen for a transcendental experience.
Similarly, the Hindus believe in savanaya, or a sacred cow that leaps over
a chasm on Thursdays. Through metaphorical interpretation, we are led to
realize that all examples suggest an attainable higher state of
consciousness like that of Nietzsche's ubermench, or superman, as outlined
in his novel "Thus Spoke Zarathustra."
