I suppose if you want some help, perennialism by Aldis Huxley is a good place to look at where he identified in the same way that Joseph Campbell and Carl Jung it could be said, identified respectively that there are mythic tropes that appear to recur in all cultures. He began to write a a famous book which I believe.

Why people recommend it

The perennial philosophy by Aldous Huxley is a comparative study of mysticism and religion that compiles writings from various spiritual traditions to argue for underlying universal truths shared across human cultures. On The Diary Of A CEO, Russell Brand recommended Aldous Huxley's book while discussing perennialism, universal mythic tropes, and recurring philosophical principles, comparing Huxley's insights to the psychological and mythological frameworks established by Joseph Campbell and Carl Jung. Furthermore, on The Tucker Carlson Show, Jay Dyer mentioned Aldous Huxley's lesser-known book while discussing themes of uniformity, individuality, and societal control, contrasting it with the dystopian foresight found in Brave New World. Both podcast episodes utilized Huxley's exploration of shared spiritual wisdom to comment on human nature, cultural conditioning, and the persistent search for transcendent meaning across different societies and eras. The book is presented by these speakers as an essential guide for anyone seeking to understand the common threads that bind diverse philosophical and religious traditions together in a complex world.
