The Shadow - Carl Jung's Warning to The World
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 มิ.ย. 2024
- Carl Jung warns us against the dangers of the shadow (the unknown dark side of our personality). We must acknowledge our shadow and enter into long and difficult negotiations with it through shadow work. Only then can we become conscious of the collective shadow (the unknown dark side of mankind) and not fall prey to it.
Exploring our shadow allows us to rescue the good qualities that lie dormant within us, which improves our lives and the lives of those around us. We can then face the collective shadow and take responsibility to address the denial of important issues and a lack of individual and collective initiative.
Telling the truth is the most desirable way to deal with a difficult past, rather than dismissing the atrocities and having the shadow grow blacker until it can no grow no more, and thus history repeats itself.

I did. Thank you. I also shared it. 😏😉😎👍✅🧐🕊️🌹
Excellent!!!
Thanks for sharing.
Profound
Eternalist that I am, love the art
Loving self?
Eternal work in progress ...
Nooooo waaaayyyyy!!!!!! Either remembering more of what my soul already knew or been channeling Jung - Coz I keep saying almost every thing you quoted in the video word for word and it’s seriously just blown me away - ha ha don’t practice what you preach - Preach what you’ve already practiced❤️
FIND YOUR LIGHT IN YOUR DARK
AND YOUR DARK IN YOUR LIGHT
TRULY DISCOVER ALL PARTS OF YOU AND…
KNOW THY SELF
For Peace within = Peace in the World

"One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making darkness conscious".
- Carl Jung
Brilliant quote. Thank you.
Nice quote but it would be better if you gave an example.
Can you give us an example of what injecting darkness with consciousness looks like?
Perhaps you have a personal story you can share with us of how you’ve done this in your life.
@@nativeamericancowboy5028 I am openly honest about my feelings now. When I am jealous or insecure I will admit it. I bring the dark to the light and people will appreciate the honesty. Expose your dark side and watch what value being vulnerable will do to the relationships in your life.
@@Justineyedia That’s a good example. Thank you for sharing.
I was born a Care Bear - all heart- no boundaries. Over time, I became an alcoholic, overwhelmed with the ugliness of the world, thinking at the time, that things kept happening to me. Now, after doing my own Shadow Work, I realize all of the illogical and irrational pain I endured / happened FOR me. I once read “No one is coming to save you from yourself”. It zapped me, hard. I decided, you know what, it’s time to roll up my sleeves and dive into my very own darkness. Was it easy? Hell to the nah. Was it worth it? 💯. Fully accepting my darkness while also acknowledging all of my light has forever changed my perspective and my peace for the better. I am going to be 2 years sober this august 8th. I wouldn’t want to be anywhere but HERE RIGHT NOW. if you’re reading this, I send love your way - an intense golden beam from my heart straight to yours. ✨
I have throath problems
Bad energy ? (Chakras)
Congratulations on your sobriety. I also had my own battle/journey with my shadow two years ago. It was awful, terrifying, and I didn't know how I would come through it. I am now thankful for my experience as I understand myself and the world better and in a much deeper way. Continued self understanding/knowledge to you 🙏🏼 💓
Sending love back your way, and thank you 🙏🏾 Also, Congratulations on your Sobriety! 🥰 I wish you all the luck in the world to get to where you want to go.
Wow, you sound like a mirror to my experience! I've been sober since 2008, and the process I went through to become sober is almost identical to what you described. YOU HAVE WON! Don't let the 12 steppers tell you that you're completely powerless over it. Because once you beat it, YOU have complete power over IT. Now it's almost 2023, still sober, and plan to be for life! Not being numb all the time allows you to experience the profoundness of life itself, which is far better than any buzz I've ever gotten off of booze! Thank you for the love, I return it in full measure! 💜🤗😊
🌿💛Thank you, for my gold beam and♥️. I'm proud of you for no longer drinking white man's poison. 🦬
"Light thinks it travels faster than anything but it is wrong.
No matter how fast light travels, it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it.”
Traveling at the speed of Dark !!
Shadow and darkness are two separate distinctions. Darkness is an absence of Light. Shadow is the indirect lighting behind that which light shines upon. Without light, a shadow does not exist. Darkness exists in the eye of the beholder only, an illusion of sense perception.
You are using quotations. Was this phrase in the video? Where are you quoting from?
You can’t have one without the other . Water -snow- cloud - it’s the. Yin , yang of life
@@RavenRaven-se6lr yes, opposite values are complimentary
Humility is powerful. It taught me things I never would have learned otherwise. I truly have learned to forgive, let go control and trust, and to love myself on a new level.
Humility is the most lacking of all virtues in pop culture.
The only good, non self-absorbed comment on this vid. Thanks for that.
"the courage with which we bear our darkness frees others from having to carry it for us" well said
Just breezing through the comments and came across this poetry.
I resonate with this and with permission Carl Jung and the Eternalised channel, I would love to use these words in the next song I write.
@@johntylermusic9461 I’m sure you could, maybe say that you were inspired by Carl Jungs “The Shadow” though
Love this!
@@asherpikesgoldenmoralcinem5770 What does the quote mean? That if we do not acknowledge our personal shadow we will be forced to acknowledge it by others who see it manifest undesirably?
@@seri4832 my take is pretty much as explained within the video. If you don't come to know your own depths, you cannot master them. Therefore, however they do manifest themselves, because we all do manifest something of the dark, you wouldn't be in control of it or even conscious of it, so its noticeable to all around you except you, and they suffer for it. I take the example to be like addict behavior, or compulsive lying......your friends and family know and have to avoid or confront and make that choice because you can't or won't.
This channel is as good as anything on TH-cam. I don’t know who you are, but your words and insights have helped me to understand myself and lead a better life. I suffer less because of you. Thank you.
The purpose of existence is to kindle a light in das darkness of mere interbeing human on spaceship earth

"I suffer less because of you" what an absolute compliment. I am inclined to agree! 🧡

Paul I’ve just read your comment and I just want to thank you for expressing your gratitude to the creator/s of this channel as I have actually just fully felt the deep sincerity of your words and the amazing feelings you ‘feel’ inside- And because of you I’ve just realised this my friend.. ☺️
- SINCERITY & TRUTH IS A FORCE OF PURE BEAUTY THAT WILL TOUCH ALL SOULS -
Thanks so much again and much love to the fantastic channels creators - I am only new but I subscribed right away after watching this video yesterday. And, Paul thanks again too and much love ☮️❤️
I cried while watching this and when i read the comments, it makes me emotional because i thought i was going crazy or abnormal or something because of what was going inside my head and i'm relieved to know that I'm not alone and not an alien and that somehow i can fight or acknowledge my shadow and make it bring out a positive side of me and it makes me feel that what I'm experiencing is valid.
Yea who woulda known that the angel on one shoulder and the devil on the other shoulder was actually real
you should research mbti. finding out i was an infj has helped me grow and i’m so much more at peace with my flaws. i also understand others and my interactions with them much better. be careful of the test though it’s only about 40% accurate. instead id watch youtube channels if you’re interested

There is no short cut to enlightenment, it requires discipline 🙏🏽

"The best weapon of a dictatorship is secrecy, but the best weapon of a democracy should be the weapon of openness."

And we can see it in the freedom movement
Hear hear and like a weapon - openess and freedom of speech can be be 'jaggy' but we 'allow' the weapon of dictatorship at our severest peril
Shadow work is the person who introspects and takes responsibility. However, we're living in sociopathic times and those who introspect and take responsibility are scapegoated and slaughtered.
The Matrix activates its agents to keep those willing to liberate themselves under control.
Thanks for such a succinct explanation of my journey to heal my inner child while siblings crucify me for my awareness. It’s scary
@@cm5065 Sorry to hear this. If it's any relief, same here and for so many others just like us. It's best to go No Contact. No Contact gets easier and is so freeing once you start doing it.

Your compassion and awareness is not lost on me. People look at me like I have 3 heads if I have to explain my boundaries with family. Good luck on your journey with much gratitude. Chris
@@cm5065 It's okay to be you. It's okay to acknowledge that others are a distraction and an interference...Connect with yourself. Connect to nature. Interact with, and observe, nature as much as you can. Nature is true n has many lessons. Learn about fasting- there are many benefits...Don't look at this comment "like it has three heads". Ha
I confronted my shadow and felt like my soul was being torn apart. I had to dig deep and face all my insecurities, shame, and guilt from birth till now. It was something I was running away from for 28 years. Now I can say I walk hand in hand with my shadow. I am my shadow. My shadow is me. We are separate but one.
Congratulations brother I know what you feel. Nothing feels better than feeling amazing in your own skin. Inside and out.
What does that mean and how did you do that?
@Martin I hope you found your answer. The only way I could understand this concept to this entirety was Jordan Peterson. He talks about the capacity for evil, " I don't think that you have any insight whatsoever into your capacity for good until you have some well-developed insight into your capacity for evil" once you choose good knowing your capabilities that's what makes you honorable

@@itsallon3 study African history including ancient African history. Listen to African activists, be open minded and realize that the world that we are living in today isn’t the same world that was alive in the beginning of man. The world is the way it is today for a reason, MANY reasons. Do you research on yourself and things around you and then you’ll realize how FAKE and corrupt everything and everyone is around you. Hope that helped brother, may Allah bless you 🧠❤️🌍
''one must not strive for perfection, but rather wholeness of personality''
I strongly recommend “The body keeps the score “ by Bessel van der Kolk. It explains how we physically process mental anxiety and the effects it has on our lives. It is basically what understanding what Jung was saying.
One of the best books ever wrote connecting mental anguish to horrific physical pain and ailments in a serious psycho-scientific way whilst remaining easy to understand
I bought this book for myself as a Christmas present it's seriously life changing
I strongly recommend the Bible.
@@irishguyjg_2ndchancerecovery Amen
I have gained so much by understanding how childhood abuse made my developing brain see things the way that it does. I no longer blame myself or see myself as fundamentally flawed. Now I understand completely. All because of this book... so grateful.
This is really fascinating. I just recently came across this concept of the shadow and I feel it is spot on as someone who self-sabotages just when I'm getting to a good place in life. This makes sense.
Ben let’s become quick friends and talk about it.
I maybe having some of these issues myself.
(I’m only saying may because I’m not sure yet)
I would like to examine one of your stories.
How do you feel like this is affecting your current position in life?
@@nativeamericancowboy5028 you stand in the inbetween, the liminal position of the have....not. Oppressor and the oppressed, the colonizer and colonized, so says your handle here, a bit of a candy cane, not an apple, no...or yes?
@@campingintheforest_ I’m the player of all parts. I am both the demon and the angel.
@@campingintheforest_ I lived in my parents haunted house for 20 years. I learned from the Discarnate beings who resided in our house.
BEN Yes I can Relate with your message right here.
Jung would be pleased. This channel is a powerful effort to liberate us from darkness by the light of consciousness. I am profoundly moved. If this channel has been demonized, it is inevitably by people who are projecting their own inner situations.
I would only like to congratulate and thank the author of this podcast for his ability to so perceptively synthesize the original messages of so many authors and, especially, for the artistic knowledge of so many paintings and images that seem to perfectly accompany and illuminate the accompanying analysis
Very well explained. It’s so true that you do need to address your personal shadow first if you hope to alleviate the collective shadow. Many people want to address the collective shadow without working on themselves first, and it manifests as black & white blaming of others.
That's a super wise insight
true its wise to start within your own sphere of influence. I've found incredible amounts of fulfilment from helping my immediate family with understanding the concept of a personal shadow. lots of baggage unpacked.
Whats the best way to get started you guys reckon (open question to all)
This is so true for many ❤️🙏🏽
Just like the Dumocraps and the Republowcons . They always blame the other. They have many shadows 😳....
Anyone who has survived narcissistic abuse knows the darkest shadows of humanity and themselves. It is an incredibly hard journey but has the potential to bring all shadows of the abused into the light for total transformation.
Been there.
What?
Wow needed to see this
@@DaveReithmiller1983 I like how you put that. True. It does no good to blame, in the end it all comes down to a showdown between you and you. Most of our choices stem from childhood, I daresay even infancy- the subconscious never sleeps, it even remembers being in the womb.
Indeed!
One of the things I enjoy while learning from your videos, is the artwork that you use as background. They are beautiful and help to give a virtual explanation.
"I've been crawling on my belly
Clearing out what could've been.
I've been wallowing in my own confused and insecure delusions
For a piece to cross me over
Or a word to guide me in.
I wanna feel the changes coming down.
I wanna know what I've been hiding in
My shadow."

Yes! You are!

What a song
People struggle to integrate their shadow side because of fear of judgement. They often get stuck into a role that they basically give themselves and have the feeling if they suddenly act differently it would contradict this role and others will dislike and not trust them. You need to lose all fear and hope in order to successfully integrate your shadow side into your personality. Let go of envy and accept that your ego is not really you. Don't seperate yourself from others by thinking you're special in any kind of way and accept the fact that we are all the same entity looking at ourselves from another window.
Everyone has their struggles
Hmm, this sounds vaguely like Hinduism or Buddhism. Not that I DISAGREE with it, but I can't help thinking this is advice MUCH easier SAID than done...Especially by "Westerners".
@@jebidiahnewkedkracker1025 Yes, we have to get rid of ego and selfishness, repent. Change the mindset of wanting to be served to that of serving others. That's all. 🔥❤️
Sorry but in the real world we have bills to pay. I cant just go around giving people all my stuff and time and expect to come out on top lmfao thats nonsense
@@contraband1543 Why do you have to need to come on top of others? Do you have certain disadvantages that you try to compensate for? Trying to be better than others is a form of insecurity which often leads to envy or pride, just be better than you were yesterday.
The scariest shadow of all, is when we try to "tame" or hide our compassion towards others, because it's become almost socially impossible and unacceptable! We've become so desensitized to emotional intelligence..Compassion is the highest form of intelligence!
Well said!
Brother
This is so powerful. I've been tapping into this field of knowledge and the whole world has been changing around me. I feel I may have personified too much of my shadow.
No such thing…take smaller bites…😊
😆😬
The last chiron channel watch and study the golden web. Then youll be laughing at how in 14 hrs of info he will replenish your spirit and trivial people and talk wont concern u mich after since u will only wish to drink from a river like his. .
@ApriltheEmu then introversion (or something else) is the shadow. Look many times.
Smaller bites is the key and 100% honesty, not 99%. Maybe you sleep too little too or smoke too much weed, the shadow is many things. Thinking it's just one thing might be one of its delusions.
@ApriltheEmu good points
im genuinely grateful you make these videos. you put words to so many feelings i have that i couldn’t have understood otherwise. thank you
Even studying psych and later getting a counseling degree, Jung was something we only spent a very short time on. It was like ok expanded on Freud and archetypes and that there is a deeper collective unconscious. Next. Many years later I'm finding how fascinating some of his theories were.
It's by design
Most people want simpler answers. Jung is way too deep for most.
The small mound of truth is almost always hidden by the mountains of lies.
@@ItsMe-vg4vj today its heaven for godless society but the truth is hell!
I wonder that too, if our deep conscious is not be learned in society, then this whole time majority of people didnt even realize who they are? and this whole time society is controlled by someone who has the power to do so? rather for well being of its citizen, psychogy its a tool for exploit the mass? I'd be appreciate to hear your opinion because when i said this to other they said "do you even have degree in psychology?"
Shadow work can bring up lots of past trauma. It is a true work of the soul and you have to be careful. Love Jung"s work. Thank you for relaying the info.
I found the darkness when I stopped running and came to the end of myself. I had no answers and the questions didn't matter anymore. That was when I found my spiritual identity in Christ. It was well worth the trip to freedom.
Ive watched youre videos many times and every time i watch them again i learn something new.
Satan will say on the last day: “ I had no power over you; I called you and you came. “ Take responsibility. That is what I am hearing here.
The name Satan means accuser if you take the book of job serious then Satan works as a sorta prosecutor in a divine court it’s easily implied by the book of Job that Satan works on behalf of god
The New Testament paints him as the king of hell master of demons etc etc
I think rocky in creed summed it up best your worst enemy is the guy looking back at you in the mirror
And we all know that isn't true. Saten has no power. That line of belief just proves Satans power.
Too bad the devil isn't real.
Yeah...I'm pretty sure he has a lot of power, you know like possession and stuff like that 🤔

Given how poorly writers, artists, musicians and other creative people are treated by the culture at large, you could argue that a hell of a lot of creativity in the collective unconscious has been repressed into the collective shadow. Perhaps our civilisation needs to put creative people at the heart of our culture if we are ever to bring the collective darkness of humanity into the light. How we do that, of course, is anyone's guess.
It also struck me that the fact that so many societies seem to just sweep things like drug use and broader mental health issues under the carpet, that perhaps the collective decision to do this speaks to an aspect of the collective shadow that wants to see individual humans suffer or feels powerless to really help individual humans in our species towards wholeness. It may even be that on an individual basis we love our friends and family but at a collective level we actually despise our own species. If we despise ourselves as a species then it could be that things like global warming are the collective equivalent of an individual engaging in self-harm behaviour and self-sabotage which means that just as an individual with suicidal ideation may cause their families a great deal of pain our collective suicidial ideation is going to be very dangerous to every living thing on this planet.
Kipling's preamble poem at the beginning of "The Jungle Book" addresses the heart of the story: "Tooth, talon, fang and claw..." Refers to the natural weapons of the animal kingdom. Ours is the mind. To enable another's mind is to arm that person with a human degree of autonomy.
We will mend each other medically in any other way but that. To heal another's mind is to return them to equality with the rest of humankind. Such trust is the conceptual equivalent of giving a fugitive back a loaded pistol because it belongs to them, not knowing if they are perpetrator or victim, friend or foe.

You have no idea how much I needed to hear this. Very well done 👏
This was an amazingly put together, well spoken and informative video. Thank you my friend ✌️Just so happens that I am doing shadow work and this shows up and brought more clarity to the things I'm learning. Thank you 🙏🏻
Listening to this at 5 in the morning alone is giving it a creepy edge.
I can feel my shadow watching me learn….
As they should.
Your shadow is probably sweating and trembling while watching you watch this 😂😂😂
The more you try to find it, the more it will hide, until you confront it, because it's usually very bad when it confronts you.
Right
Man I was just thinking and feeling the same way. What the heck
Once you're aware of your shadow you can really truly make better long term decisions that can help you stay on the path that can better help you understand what drives your shadow. Radical honesty is so helpful
I love all the viewer comments, so heartfelt, as much as I love the content of the video. We are so lucky to have access to such wonderful content
This video is absolutely amazing, I personally have researched some of Carl Jung's work and I believe just though self reflection and admitting we do have some characteristics we don't like, unhealthy thoughts or behaviours we are accepting our shadowself. I know though experience awful people don't look at themselves in a reflective way so they have embodied their shadow selfs
“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.”
“There's no coming to consciousness without pain.”
“Like plants, so men also grow, some in the light, others in the shadows. There are many who need the shadows and not the light.”
“Your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.”
“To be "normal" is a splendid ideal for the unsuccessful.”
“If the path before you is clear, you’re probably on someone else’s.”
“Where your fear is, there is your task.”
-Carl Jung

In my experience this video says it all, the outside is a reflection of our inner being, the world's sufferings is the result of the masses of traumatised people's suppressed pain on the inside that has not been addressed.
Most people are walking around on auto pilot and don't even know it, I did not know it, until that is I began to dig deep, and uncover my anher, fear and released my sadness which has become stagnant inner stormy seas.
Once we express our sufferings and acknowledge our childhood experiences that were stored away in the memories of our waters, we can cleanse the body of those stuck emotions, energy not in motion, and cry them out, replacing them with clear crystal waters calm inner waters, that give us eyes to see.
Dreams are a way of helping us understand our fears, and show.us where we are in our spiritual growth.
Dreams have helped me.us inner-stand my self, and has brought up a lot of memories I had forgotten.

Love the....inner stand myself ❤❤❤there is no rainbow, where there are no tears
Sorry, psychopaths and evil exists.
That was a level of enlightened I needed...thank you...
The key to this is when ego gives up it's pride. Not to do so can cause untold damage.
I've always found it best to put down thoughts of specialness and to recognize all the faults of my human self. By practicing this daily I feel free and light and can be refreshingly honest with myself and others.
It's not necessary to take oneself so seriously and work too hard on banishing shadows, in my experience. By giving up attachment to the root (which is habitual thought around a special person) freedom is naturally attained. SImply be attentive to the reality of each moment, without judgment. There is no real ego.
So own everything, but lightly!
Giving up attachments at the root... Freedom is naturally attained. Would you say even unconsciously?
I had my absolute darkest hour when I was 18 and the entire weight of the world was on my back. I was dragged down in a downward spiral not unlike to a singularity of a black hole. So much fear the entire way, but when I hit the center, all fear, loathing, anxiety, stress...it all disappeared in an instant. To this day I don't know what mental/psychological attributes were at play, but w/e it was invoked the most fortifying resolve imaginable. It literally was the idea of resolve itself and it saved my life. This resolve is pure positive and constructive. It is just as powerful today as it was then. I've looked into the abyss and it has stared back at me. I know evil first hand and I've got one foot knee deep in it at all times.
Sounds like you had an ego Death. I don't think I've experienced an ego Death yet or it's happening to me as a Process. But I've had A Mystical Experience/ Spiritual Awakening and that changed my Life Forever. I was so Lost in Darkness and self sabatage and alcoholism. Ever Since The Spiritual Awakening, IT has put me on a different Path and Way Of Living. Right now I'm struggling with social anxiety and it effects my Life heavily and Lonliness that can get unbearable but Its Part Of The Process of dismantling my ego.
@@andrewortiz5797 Just know you are not alone out there, friend. When you go through an awakening, or an ego death, you will feel disconnected or isolated from others because your spiritual vibration is raising. Becoming self aware, and more aware of things around us. It may seem hard to talk to others because how can you even describe what's happening with you without sounding crazy? During all this just don't isolate. Others that understand and that are 'awake' will be put in your path and you'll realize one day that you are making all new connections with people on a much more wholesome level. It feels lonely now, but you are not alone in you're journey 🙏
@@ShawnaNaNa90 thank you that means alot to me.
@@andrewortiz5797 Same, i don't feel the same since having those surreal thoughts/feels.
Feeling left out, lost & stuck.
Not thinking like others, rather have your own perception on life.
Questioning your hobbies.
Realizing happiness is always within, value what you have because some will do anything to have what you have.
Ect'...
You're a different person but you're the same person, same since birth but at some day without knowing you act and think different.
Anyway, sorry just love to express self-insight thoughts.
You're not alone🌟

you did an incredible job with this - thank you
Thank you for this beautiful video ! I needed to hear this ❤
I have just shockingly discovered this about aspects of my self , I was horrified, mortified but came to the above conclusion with gentle self reflection and the compassion shown to me by dear friends when I confided in them in a time when I felt cold towards myself and had self disgust and repulsion . It presented a deeper understanding towards others acts of cruelty and the importance of none judgement and to remain in a state of meditative love . I realized it was a gift if I decided to learn from the experience, I am deeply grateful
The one classic that explores this, is Jekyll and Hyde by R L Stephenson. It shows how the darkness of the shadow can completely envelope a person who is not aware.
Hello Jackie, one of my very favourite books. The thing is Mr Hyde was invented because Dr Jekyll wanted to get away with doing evil stuff, he just didn’t expect to loose control and this darkness scared him. He was no nice innocent guy. It also looks to the collective darkness in repressive Victorian England where the upper class hid behind tightly buttoned up shirts but were doing nasty things in the night that the poor and innocent paid for. Thank you for reminding me.
I thought that the story solemnly thrived on the consequences of alcohol abuse or drugs but I can understand this type of case by giving in to the less difficult life giving in to all impulses Jekyll the man who refused to mature
@@sarahhawke5729 bruh XD
Like Amber Heard?
The ego often tricks the unaware into a false sense of self. I was completely unaware of it, the only reason I became aware of it was because I experienced a dark night of the soul, an ego death, more of a reset really, because the ego is still within me, it is just that I became aware of it after the dark night of the soul and only now do I know to always keep it in check. I no longer let it control my thoughts or actions. I resist the ego and resist any and all darkness that lies within me. How people are expected to keep it in check while being constantly distracted is beyond me. It’s almost as if society is being steered towards making it an impossibility to keep it in check. I think there are those who see the ego as being something they wish to leave unchecked, meaning they don’t have to worry about self control, I think they long for freedom and the only way they can be truly free is without self control, without any limits placed upon the ego.
To me being truly free means being strong in mind. To know unequivocally of who we truly are and the only way to do that is by resisting the darkness within us and letting the good within us flourish rather then allowing the ego to crush that goodness within. For that goodness within are our true selves, to truly be free we must control our own darkness, never to allow it to control or dictate any of our thoughts or actions any longer.
Very powerful video. Thank your for your efforts. Straight to the point and clear and consise.
Blessings
I wish every single human on this planet would listen to this at least one time!! Shadow work is so important and vital to evolving in a healthy manner! I can only hope for the day that all have a greater understanding of what this all really is
✌️
What’s shadow work?
@@whitedragoness23 shadow work is when you work on the so called darker side of self. The world is based on polarity and people seem to block out the fact that we have anger and sadness, jealousy, greed, so on in all of us. With that said, that's not meaning we act on that in ways you'd think either.
Every human on this planet has an opposite of who we think we are, and that's our shadow.
But the shadow isn't bad at all, it helps us learn and grow.
Like say u get jealous one day bc a partner gives attention or whatever to someone we may think may be better. That's the shadow showing u what lies within u too feel that way.
When I first started learning about these things a few years back, id hear people say shadow work was scary or that we don't have that negativity when trying to be positive, but that's a perfect example of shadow coming out as well bc we ALL do, it follows everywhere we go and it's a very positive thing when worked with in an evolving type manner!
There's also shadow cards you can buy, which are tarot cards , but they'll help u learn what part of you you're not quite getting then u learn how to work better with it versus bringing you down...
I hope that helps friend ✌️
Thankyou. I studied this at college was raised in chinese culture and explored christian beliefs and the growth and out workings if this inner change. Everyone is saying the same things essentially being 'born again through grace ' in the christian sense is to integrate the shadow ego and human virtue. Here the same internalisation of the aspects of shadow inner honesty and integration with external expression creates wholeness within and across family and society. So many of the same belief systems across cultures and nations. Good to see this and voice it. For we are one. As one is all. All for one and one for all is a c common cry amongst team spirit in colleagues, societies and in sport themes songs. ❤️🔥
The sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light in the darkness of mere being - Jung
My family was in the Canadian residential school system. This hits home hard. What happened there had a cascade effect over all of society.
This is very fascinating. I have watched this video before since I hit the like button; and I came across it again today. I sure did need it. It hit deep. Thank you!
“Rescue the good qualities that lie dormant “ seems to me to be the great ‘archeo-psycho’ mission of our times, a great reclamation of those values once taken as a given by those who profess to love wisdom (aka philosophers)… otherwise, we simply descend into unrequited nihilism and we seem to be content to cohabitate with it. This was my take-a-way from your wonderful presentation. I thoroughly enjoyed it… Cheers!
Brilliant.
The purpose of existence is to be conscious of the materials that are being push upward from the unconscious.
most jews ive met seem this way to
What about "shadow" demons? These beings do not respond to normal integration techniques.

This is great. I often find the effort to grow in myself so difficult that I absolutely don’t have any time to help other people with their shadows. At the end of the day, even when I grow, I am still labeled as selfish because I just want to be left alone to my own devices, since it is so hard for me to “live a normal life”.
Everyone is selfish. It’s a part of us to be selfish. Every decision and choice we make is selfish. Even the natural choices and processes we have no conscious control over are selfish. Like digesting our food, or the beating of our heart, it is selfish yet we have no control. The self improvement you desire is the reason you haven’t improved. It’s going to feel like pulling yourself into the air by your own boot laces, it’s impossible haha. Look into Allen watts and what he covers, I believe he could show you something you already have saw yet haven’t noticed.
You sound like an introvert and someone who has a greater mission than most. You're good.
I recently lost my job because of Covid (I decided not to take the vax), anyway, I worked in a nursing home with dementia patients, At the end of the day I would come home so emotionally exhausted, I found that there was nothing left for myself. I am also what you call an introvert and being "on" all the time just left me spent. Don't be too hard on yourself.
You are not alone ❤
I hear you (listening) ! It is indeed a challenging process, which draws on all our strength to achieve. But unless I misunderstood your words, Nobody should feel that they are obliged in any way to help others with their shadow work - (unless maybe, someone specifically asks for help from you). Unless you happen to be a very unique, advanced and enlightened soul, It’s not your job to save other people from themselves. The only way to help others, anyway, is to first help yourself. That way, you are raising the consciousness of all those around you. I think this concept has been studied and proven at various times. As far as labels go, what ppl label you as, or judge you as, is merely a reflection of their own state of mind, thought processes or level of consciousness. It has nothing at all to do with you and what kind of person you are, and therefore must be taken with a grain of salt. Needing to be left alone during periods of introspection, growth and and so forth, is completely normal and to be expected - certainly not selfish - merely a requirement or necessity. Anybody who judges another in that regard, is ignorant and not a friend. This kind of person may need to delve into their own psyches, and ask themselves why they have come to such a conclusion. It’s possible that they have not afforded themselves the right to be ‘selfish’ during times of growth, and therefore feel triggered when seeing others who are able to do so. Who knows. I’ve realised that most people have very little or no knowledge about the internal life of others, yet find it so easy to come to all manner of conclusions and judgements about their character, and the flaws they surely must have. Personally, I empathise with you in regards what you said about wanting to be left alone to your own devices, because it’s so hard for you to live a normal life. I can’t possibly know exactly what you mean, however I have this feeling that if people quit judging you, and were more accepting and compassionate of you and your circumstances, you may find it easier to live a normal life - whatever that is. I wonder to myself - who’s normal ? What’s a normal life anyway ? Maybe you’re normal, and the rest are abnormal 🙄 . Society doesn’t embrace the differences in people - the challenges some ppl have with their health, especially what’s termed as mental health - differences in neurology - differences in beliefs - personality - appearance - and more… I hope you find peace and acceptance in your life. ✌️🌈🙏
Knowledge and maintenance of yin and yang, dark and light, of our hours during night and day, both are essential.

It made me think of my dad who has colon cancer. He's in the fourth stage, the last one. I think this quote rings true. But I'm also trying to see it from his perspective and come to terms with it.
Thanks for the time u have put in creating this video
i’ve rewatched it 3 times so far and learned something new about myself everytime
Amazing speech by Carl Jung ,very interesting indeed.. You know what they say darkness can't penetrate the light but light always shines through the darkness...keep that in mind...
everytime i'm struggling with anxiety or loose faith I watch channels like this to remind myself about how grateful I am that I'm even aware of these things in the first place, the end goal as described by jung will never cease to amaze me. Thanx for the content I was looking for a way to get in the driver seat of that chariot they say life's a game, a divine commedy etc. to me it's like an amusement park and I decided to get in that hell of a ride. I get to try is the entire point of the experience otherwise it's not fun I guess. Then it's up to me but Yoda said do or do not, so let's get to it my younger self wanted to be a Jedi (anything you want really) and I get to be one is so much better than what I expected when at some point I didn't want to expect anything anymore. my heart said you know it's there keep looking.

"once you broadly understand the way, you see it in everything" the way brought me to this video so thank you eternalised & everything in the collective, I'm starting to see I dapple often in those realms.
I scratched the surface with Jung after realizing a band I listened to TOOL s song 46-2 was in regards to Jung and Shadows! Been saying I been to research more with Jung then two days in a row! Listened great listen ✌️
TOOL was Conscious ha.
"He was the most prodigious personification of all human inferiorities. He was an utterly incapable, unadapted, irresponsible, psychopathic personality, full of empty, infantile fantasies, but cursed with the keen intuition of a rat or a guttersnipe. He represented the shadow, the inferior part of everybody’s personality, in an overwhelming degree, and this was another reason why they fell for him."
- C.G. Jung, on Hitler and the Shadow
Trump seems to work this way - to a much less hostile degree. Strange contradictions in his supporters allow the shadow to receive no light.
@@dvdrtrgn Reading that quote, I immediately thought of trump and his followers. It explains his power and appeal to his followers. And he and his followers would do exactly what Hitler did to those he opposes, if he or they could get away with it. The difference between Hitler and trump is a matter of degree, not kind.
bullshit
Wow - some dude commented on a biography about Hitler that he was bipolar and a little lithium would’ve changed history..I was like ,”W-T-F...sooo ASPD didn’t pop up on your radar - at all??”
@@dvdrtrgn Always one who had to invoke Trump while completely ignoring the facist dictators , tyranny, draconian laws rapidly being put into place one after one by the very people pointing fingers at Trump and those that also support the constitution and there nation. Projection truly does work as does the smear tactics when the followers of fascists refuse to think for themselves
Very insightful! Thank you for your videos. 💛
Very nice video! Greetings from New Hampshire!
This is something I've always been facisnated with. I adore the exploration of the shadow cause it's one of the cruxs of all characters throughout history and it's only by accepting your shadow do you fully overcome it rather than neglecting the fact that it's there.
Excellent. My personal shadow requires acknowledgement, and then love and forgiveness to be healed and integrated, before the collective shadow can be healed.
Love and Light dear reader 💕☀️
Personal journey of self healing is a great thing I done through regression and seeing myself at the age of the trauma and giving love and understanding of the needs that weren't met in that period of my life.
By healing yourself you contribute to the healing of the collective...as you yourself are a part of the collective. Everything is connected.

Brilliant elaboration - Thank you!
In spiritual alchemy the first thing we are taught is to make friends with our shadows. As Jung says there's no light with out shadow. The best inner work I've ever done.
Much love and gratitude for this profound information. ✨
Neigong??
What’s spiritual alchemy ?
@@whitedragoness23
I believe he's referring to Neigong as it's called in China.
It's the actual alchemy that all of the sages were speaking about in allegorical terns and metaphors when speaking about "turning lead to gold" and all that.
It's the methods by which The philosphers stone is acquired
@Dustin Ashley It is called Neidan or Jindan. "Internal Alchemy" It is a big part of Taoism. ☯️ The teachings of the Dao incorporate various elements of self cultivation through meditation, philosophy and other techniques. I would recommend "The Secret of the Golden Flower".. Carl Jung did commentary for the book.
@@whitedragoness23 Spiritual alchemy is called "spiritual alchemy" to separate it from its practical form of chemistry or laboratory alchemy. It has nothing to do with one specific culture, because all cultures have it. Don't listen to these people here.
In spiritual alchemy, we take our flaws and our vices and we transform them into virtues, just as baser metals are transformed into precious metals in chemistry. It's also called sublimation. Hope that helps.
This is the core of the human condition. I started this journey about 44 years ago. I started asking myself why I didn't seem able to be as confident as others. Then with the John Bradshaw series called "On the Family" on PBS television, Everything began to click. It took me 7 years of emotional release, hypnosis and psychoanalysis to become clearer minded and resolve the self hatred passed on to me by the culture and FOO. As Alice Miller wrote in "The Untouched Key". Jung is one of my favorites.
Thank you this video really made me think. Much appreciated 🙏
Brilliant presentation, thank you very much.
I found this personally valuable; I had heard of the Shadow before, but I don't think I've ever heard Jung's concept explained more clearly or accessibly. Thank you, I have a lot of work to do.
I've been fortunate to have found this process by myself and exercise it constantly, but many congratulations on explaining it so well to both those who don't know it and to fortunates like me who have already found it. You clarified my process for me. Thank you.
Low key I farted and I thought some shid came out, I checked and luckily I had no shadow, either or, good to hear I guess.....
@Bladwijzer Sync okay so, take a deep inhale until it almost hurts, AND with all your might squeeze your thigh muscles, begin to fard, soon enough you'll shidd. I hope this helped clarify, my Brother. Peace be upon you.
@Bladwijzer Sync It’s quite some consequence to have your perception of reality changing. But if it’s for the better, good luck and long may it continue. I’ve been questioning the nature of reality for many years, but my actual perception of it has undergone relatively minor changes.
As for the question, I would say that the consequence has simply been to bring my dark side into sharper focus so I see it more clearly now and it informs my actions and responses better. I’m more tolerant, less judgemental, and more able to brush things off (like TH-cam trolls) where they used to have me spitting fire.
@@JJBushfan sorry he was talking to me, thanks for the response tho!
Great narration, very clear and informative, with fitting illustrations!
Amazing work of explanation, I feel captivated by your videos focused on Jungian thought. Don't stop this quest.
Especially important in these troubled times. I hope that people comprehend what you are saying. Thank you for posting this video. Jung has been overlooked too often and must be reconsidered by new generations.
Isn't that shat jordan peterson is doing?
It saddens me to say that all of the people who find their way to this video and others like it are already doing the work. Getting the rest of humanity on board is our daunting mission.
When training in a psychology-related field, we only touched on Jung in an abbreviated way, while other popular psychology was promoted. I took it on myself to study Jung as he resonated the most. I spent an entire decade in the 1990s, reading everything I could. The shadow and the shadow collective are some of the most important aspects. A lesson to not go along with it right now is important. Social media and propaganda sway people in an instant it becomes a fever. Alongside the covid pandemic is a psychotic pandemic. It's actually hard to meet people who are not in the grip of it from the uneducated to the professional. Narcissism is on the rise too. The other important aspect of Jung is self-awareness. Examining your own human aspects that are not perfect but being aware of it and being able to stand back and reflect on how it is affecting you in the present moment, can actually make you stronger to-not go along with it

Thank you.

43 years ago, I pull my Chevy truck over to the side of the road, and recognize my shadow. People call it a an epiphany, and so it was. It's been a interesting Trail, and I have fallen down many times. Made many mistakes. But I have not given up that promise I made to myself on the side of the road. But from that day forward I was going to be the best man I could be. If you are struggling never never give up. Who knows good things may happen. If it work for me it can work for you
I relate, thankyou... from New Zealand!
Thanks for the video
Very insightful, and relevant to something I've been experiencing. Thank you so much for presentation, and the quality of how you used both art, historical sources, and expression. This was fantastic, and it has made an impact.
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you so much for your enlightening and excellent work. The effort you put into researching these topics, matching the ideas presented with thematically relevant paintings, and then adapting it all into this format is astounding.
I'd like to add this quote from Carl Jung about being wary of condemning the collective shadow with such bitterness that we fall into its inward form, described in 07:09 as "hatred toward oneself, one's heritage, and one's culture, depression, feelings of impotence, and the desire for revenge". Jung says, "Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves," and he also states "we cannot change anything until we accept it. Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses." As for the personal shadow ruling over us when we lack awareness of it, he says, "Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate." Shadow work is indeed difficult, and self-education is a life-long process. Jung reminds us, "There is no coming to consciousness without pain."
I will end my post with two quotes that concern shadow work.
"But it is the same with man as with the tree. The more he seeks to rise into the height and light, the more vigorously do his roots struggle earthward, downward, into the dark, the deep - into evil." - Friedrich Nietzsche
"No tree can grow to heaven unless its roots reach down to hell." - Carl Jung
It is out of the deepest depth that das highest must come to his height.
Thank you! I was wondering what it was that was irritating me about living in this world/society and my interactions with it and the humans within it. Now I have found the tip of this iceberg and I'm overjoyed! Finally I can start the work of untangling this and become a little more free.

Thank you! Great artworks to meditate on the content.
"It is important to solve one's inner conflicts, so that one does not fall into the collective shadow unconsciously." - Literally how most people can fix their entire life
Thank you. I became aware of my shadow years ago and it helped me better understand myself. This video is excellent in explaining personal and collective shadows
Your videos have made me see things in a new light
just knowing that a person that made this video is so aware of everything, encourages me that i‘ll be aware of it all one day
