PSYCH: Nietzsche and Jung: Myth and the Age of the Hero

Why myth is so very crucial to human development and fulfillment, and how those without myth end up idolizing the state.  A darn good video from the Academy of Ideas, as always.

Jungian Shadow Work

I posted Part 1 of this, and forgot about Part 2! 

While she's coming at this healing from a New Age, earth-centric perspective,  she is very accurate in regards to understanding empaths.  Sadly, Christianity has no language for they type of resonant energy she's talking about, except for vague, loosely defined concepts of "love", but it makes more sense to talk about energy in regards to human relationships and interactions for various reasons, but most importantly we all have a greater intuitive understanding of energy, especially our own lack or surplus of energy, than we do of love.   It's sad, but true.

Her two talks, about 30 minutes total, is more valuable than a year's worth of Sunday sermons.  However, there is of course one glaring mistake:  humans cannot tap into themselves in terms of finding a source of goodness, love and abundance.  That source is external, not internal, and to truly be a force of love and goodness, one must follow the wisdom of Western Civilization, and tap into the ultimate source of all these things: God himself.   God = Love.   But, other than that, she's spot on in most of her diagnosis and understanding. 

How to integrate your shadow - Jordan Peterson

"The meek shall inherit the earth."

"Disguising cowardice as morality."

Carl Jung and the Shadow: Integrating the Hidden Power of Your Dark Side

"The shadow, when it is realized, is the source of renewal...When there is an impasse, and sterile time in our lives—despite an adequate ego development—we must look to the dark, hitherto unacceptable side which has been at our conscious disposal." (Edward Whitmont)
