Carl Jung's AION - Attracting Self and Grasping Individuation
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 มิ.ย. 2024
- This video is a bit numinous. Not only the material covered, but how it all came to be. I began with the Greek Philosophers, from Parmenides through Thales of Miletus.
From there, I connected his ideas with Jung's chapter in Aion where an attraction from a specific magnet is discussed. The alchemist, the adept, was interested in a specific Echeneis fish because of its ability to attract to a vessel and have it come to a standstill. An allegory to the EGO - Self relationship.
So, I covered the entire chapter in Aion where this fish is discussed. It is a powerful video on many topics, including the great work of individuation, Truth, prima materia, Logos & Eros, archetypes, the philosophers stone, ancient Greek philosophy, shadow work, inner child (trauma) healing, being & becoming, and Oneness.
Content Covered: Aion Ch. 11 - The Alchemical Interpretation of the Fish

What do YOU think!? 💭
What else can you add to this chapter?
Why didn’t Jung connect the material back to the ancient philosophers?
Let me know below 🌊
I don't think there is anything to add. The content here will unravel in many different ways depending on the individual. Its revelatory nature will make sure of that.
As to why Jung didn't connect the material with the ancient philosophers, we'll never really know, but surely we can speculate on that for a moment. Perhaps everything depends on the point of contemplation to truth and reality. When the material is juxtaposed, the connections and bridges they form can be seen. Both reveal universal Truth and uncover Reality. However, there is something profoundly transformative in an individual when revelation through insight, intuition and visions or (Sama) is realized.
This was excellent. I re-watched the middle 5 or more times.
If you were going to add something it would be a focus on the transitions between stages.
Stage 1) The fish/magnet/Self is attracting the ship/iron/ego. Possibly stopping its forward (ego) motion.
Stage 2) The Ego/Ship seeks the "elusive" fish/Self.
Stage 3) The seeker begins to embody the ways of the magnetic/fish/Self, using new ways to attract vs pursue the Fish/Self.
Stage 4) The seekers sense of self shifts to a union of self/Self,
Key take-aways;
How the self/Self conspires to use Ego Experience for changes toward self/Self-alignment.
How what is to be changed must become conscious. What is un-conscious is almost deterministic.
How False Beliefs at the Ego experience level would distort the processing of experience such that self-alignment. would never occur.
The quote "What you are seeking is seeking you" comes to mind,
Thanks for an epic video!
Thanks for the excellent work. There's nothing to add to the chapter; though one will benefit immeasurably by consciously adding its message to their habitual modes of function.
And there's nothing to add to your superb presentation of it either. You've provided enough of a foothold for anyone who's genuinely interested to take their own well-regulated journey toward embodying it.
You've got a new subscriber. Stay healthy brother :)
I’m still on the first few minutes in on your presentation. It seems I am on understanding the flow! Crazy I missed seeing this video till this now, for me. Thank you, joe
I am unable to edit or delete on TH-cam, to correct my grammar, which is not at any particular level…words come to me: intuitively I then look them up…peace Joe!
You've not only blown my mind... You make a revelation about Jung and the Ancient Greeks I have yet to see anywhere. My mind needs time to take this in and recover. Lol! Wow.
Yes, I create through myself... so most of my material should be “fresh” and “new” Appreciate the comment.
You will also find the same essential truth that Jung arrives at in the work of Rudolf Steiner also in connection to the Greeks. Try "The Riddles of Philosophy" and you will see the same clarity appear
Understanding the depth of Jung's work is a lifelong circumambulation. Your work is an appreciated piece of the puzzle.
I appreciate this Goran. Sending my best to you. 🙏
'For a trauma to live in the unconscious, it must have a part of your trapped in it'. That resonates with me and something I will reflect on.
Beautiful. Sit with it. Let it teach. Sending love 🙏 Appreciate you.
Greek Philosophy and Jung, you’ve found your niche Joseph.. Amazing content.
I’ll be making more content on the Greeks! This is for sure.
Joseph, you clarify the incredibly complex and endless depths of the self, taken from Jung’s Aion. I love how you convey it through such beautiful video art work and speak with such metronomic cadence. Thank you, I enjoy listening.
Hello Zanna, I truly appreciate the kind words. Endless is right! 🌊 Sending my best 🙏
@@HumbleUMedia Thank you Joseph
I have Jung’s book on Symbology and alongside McGilchrist’s Matter with Things have a lifetimes reading, aided so well by your videos. I work around children and particularly love your point upon the essential nature of reading Fairy Stories.
Thank you for narrating this video Jack Nicholson.
Jung and Jack... Doesn't get much better 🤣
😅 This gave me a good laugh.
@@HumbleUMedia 'synchronistic'!
lol
Neat. This is not just a video. It's a gem you just created.
Appreciate your hard work.
Appreciate this Souray. Blessings 🙏
As a seeking self, with much experience of the world, yet only beginning to grasp my place in it I reflect upon this presentation with new, or shall I say renewed understanding.
It was through loss and pain that I found myself isolated from the world which rejected me and I, in turn rejected. I began to know without knowing that the clichés and metaphors I identified with were the only possible way of impressing upon my consciousness the unconscious nature of the duality of what I perceive as the world stage. I found I desired not to be of this place, but to escape from being in it.
The concept of an original sin that was outside of my control was abhorrent to me. Like the dead who came from Jerusalem to be sermonized by Basilides, I have rejected my God as a true god. I am a slow learner with a quick wit and the obsessive compulsive nature comparative to the vessel drawn by the magnet of the magicians who have successfully created the lapis philosiphorum. As above So below...
Are you in a position to reply yeah or nay when I assert that: We, as individually created man, are the fish, the lead, the bee and such insults... upon which the electromagnetic field, illusions, weight of the world, duality that creates joy and suffering, pain and pleasure, so that transmutes from 1s and 0s, Anode and Cathode to: gold and honey to power the system and feed the gods. Or are you a beneficiary who would lead those who do discover that their nature is not wholly their own, down the garden path of inner work and further alleyways of incarnations to keep the wheel of time in motion?
Asking for a friend.
I’ll be honest I don’t understand the alchemical subtexts reference in the book really at all. I am so thankful for the pictures and in depth explanations of the concepts you showed in the video. Without your work I would struggle to ever understand such complex teachings.
I've been waiting for this! Should be EPIC!
Your material has been waking up my soul… I cannot thank you enough humble u.
Your humility to Know Self has done much more than me. Trust me. 🙏 Much love ♥️
Thank you for this....I normally have YT on in the background as I do things. However, I was 'attracted' to this and stopped what I was doing to focus on your message. This is truly a rare event! I could feel the magnetic force within! Many blessings :)
This was very powerful. I have been contemplating what the self needs recently. This video really resonated with me and the thoughts I’ve been having on the subject of Self. I appreciate the knowledge you share 🙏🏻✨
Appreciate the comment Braxton, grateful to connect! 🙏 Blessings
Truth is Truth. Your content is that!
Is, Is. 🙏 Appreciate you.
Anion was quite eye opening!!!!!! I still hold onto that book close by
Hey Spence! It is, and still opens my eyes today lol. Hope you enjoyed the commentary.
I am awaiting the day for your account to blow up. This material is the future. Don’t forget I have been here from the beginning! Amazing sir
I remember a few seconds of absolute Peace while floating in the tropical ocean. I also felt it even in random times while working. The very presence of God, or at least the closest to it. I don't know how is it related to individuation but I know somehow It Is.
Thank you for sharing. I’ve heard this sort of statement before in relation to individuation from others, so yes, that is of its essence. 🙏
HE DOES IT AGAIN! AWESOME. 🔥🔥🔥
I didn’t do anything? I just followed 🌊😜
Revelations for days! You've got me on a Thales of Miletus hype
Right, let me know if you come to anything. I have so many projects going on, I wish I had the time to give him the true respect (it seems) he deserves.
So grateful for u Joe ...your voice is also an amazing gift!
Thank you MJ 🙏♥️ Sending love and light 💡
Amazing Journey dear Joseph🙏🙏🙏 thanks for sharing your wisdom and views. Amazing 🙏🐻🌊🌊🌊🌊🙏 take great care 🙏🌌☀️🧿🙏
Always appreciate the comments CM, sending love 🙏
Another work of art ! Gracias 🙏
I love your channel! It has deliciously fed my wonderful wanderings.
Beautiful to hear! Thank you Siedeh for the support... Much more to come. ❤
I am in the middle of reading this and only recently read the alchemical chapter you are speaking of....good stuff...thanks.
Have you had any other insights you'd like to share? Appreciate the comment!
Excellent presentation hope to see more of these presentation
I've only started reading Jung the past couple of months. Really enjoying your videos, thank you!
Thank you, just Thank you.
❤️🕊️
This is an amazing work, it helped me a lot in the hard task of understanding the harsh truths of Aion and of Jung's work. Thanks a lot for sharing.
just wonderful, thank you
Thank you! In AA the 'Recovery + Unity + Service'🔺triangle contained within the whole-circle⭕was used as a logo/symbol in the Big Book until the 4th edition. To the point; The circle & triangle is also an ancient spiritual symbol meaning Mind, Body and Spirit, together as one. The 3 corners of this equilateral triangle, “Recovery, Unity, & Service”, each touch the circle and represent wholesomeness. 🙏
Wow! Yes Jung’s influence on AA is beautiful. Are you familiar with the connection? Also, love that. Recovery (purify ego) Unity (ego-Self connection) Service (ego serving Self) hehe
@@HumbleUMedia Yes, I know the step 4 personal inventory is loosely modelling on Carl Jung's individuation. William James explains the Spiritual side, and Dr. Harry Tiebout also influenced the program. I find your exploration fascinating, I've taken to studying Stoic practices, 1st century Christianity and some Tao too. Thank you for your insights.
I love this channel! 👍🏼
Bravo 👏 My 1st read of Dr. Carl Jung was The Doctor's Opinion- The Blue Book 📘 20years ago - Loved his works ever since. Mahalo Brother 🤙
My journey has been very interesting and mind opening. It has been very varied and everything seems to have led me to this moment in time and your video has cleared up many things in my understanding. I thank you and see how I will continue to expand and grow.
This is wonderful to hear! Thank you for sharing John. Sending my best on your way 🙏 Glad to have connected ♾
This was excellent. I re-watched the middle 5 or more times.
Wonderful! Thank you Matthew. 🙏 Great to connect
I read chapter 11 again (in my much marked up copy) before I watched your video; Aion has soo much depth. And you handled this chapter beautifully. Another great video, thanks!
Wow, thank you for this! I appreciate you taking the time to provide feedback. Sending my best 🙏
absolutely amazing, great job.
Thanks Jospeph. I am blown away by the essence of your re-description of Jung's work. I arrived at the same insights concerning the nature of human beings, transformation and knowledge following a different path from your own (though it was also German in nature :))+. However, I immediately recognize the identical nature of your description despite the fact that you use a completely different language to describe it. Wonderful work!
Absolutely love you - thanks for this!
❤️
You really hit my psyche when you described the Being as “consciousness and Unconscious” and the balance of them. This is something that I am pulling from my depths to try to accomplish. Aion really is a “terrifying” book that was way before it’s time. Thank you for tackling this important book. Peace and Light to you, Joseph.
Myself as well, that moment HITT my EGO. I am on the journey too.
Would love to chat with you sometime about your journey! I always appreciate the comments, it seems your work is building some salt. Keep going! Send an email if there is interest to 💬
@@HumbleUMedia Sir, I would be honored to talk to you some time soon. I have been following Jung since 1992. He has been my inspiration for my life and has helped me gain my “Being” in my difficult journey. I will email you this week. Peace and Light, R. J.
@@HumbleUMedia😊
very,very good..... i'll have to watch this a number of times for it to sink in....
Beautiful! That was my intention. Always here if you had any questions. Thanks Marco. 🙏
I've been diving deep trying to rescue my soul, my self, me. Finding this is definitely very relieving and encouraging. Content is superb and is the highest quality.
Appreciate this Daniel… Enjoy the journey in 👁️
I really enjoy and appreciate these type of videos you post on your channel and really hope to see more in the coming future
You should do a video on The Archetypes & The Collective Unconscious by Carl Jung
Amazing work ♥️ thank you!
Thank you David 🙏
Not surprising I had just finished reading those chapters before opening TH-cam and seeing this video. I had read Aion all the way through when I first got it, was pretty shaken by it, but realized I didn’t grasp the whole of the work. You really have to circumambulate around an opus like that, going back a chapter at a time reveals more gems as you progress yourself in your process. This is an amazing analysis though, well done.
Appreciate this Phil! Especially the synchronicity ♾ Says a lot about your own work 🙏
💕Thank you for bringing this to me
Thank you as always Maria ♥️🙏
Thank you so so much for this. It has really helped me decipher a lot of things in my ascension process!
Blessings on your journey!
Wow….WOW! Thank you Teacher!
Great video. I needed to see this right now.
Great to connect 🙏 Thank you for watching
Seriously thank you for your videos. You take the time to research so throughly and breakdown everything in a easy to understand way.
On my spiritual journey I’m just discovering Jungs works and it’s truest ground breaking the way he maps and give instruction on how to gain enlightenment.
Thanks again, keep up the amazing work! One new subscriber here 😊
Thank you Mario! I’m glad you can see 👁 Grateful to connect! Sending my best 🙏

This stuffs mental even from a basic creative level. Just looking at the world differently and experimenting with art. Water Bio Light Shade Reflections Symetry Alchemy.
It's mind blowing
when I was 12, homework in my high school literature class was Jung's Man and His Symbols. I kept falling asleep while reading the first chapters My mom thought the material was too challenging for a freshnan, but I learned later that the deep sleep is the subconscious processing. Anyway, I absorbed a few things which made a lasting impression on how I viewed the mind and dreams. One is that water in dreams represents the subconscious.
The Hopi family names- The Bear Clan, the Fire Clan, etc, originated during their migration, the First People into what is now known as North America . The first person to see a bear, established the Bear Clan, because the animal had never been seen before.
I read an Kanaka Maoli account of the first time a certain bird was seen- the demigod Maui had pointed out the bird with red feathers to someone and then there were many. But before then, the bird hadn't been seen before and so didn't exist.
Yes! Your Self was eating that material up 😂 Thanks for the story! 🐻
@@HumbleUMedia
My point is- this fish in your video is-
In water
The ship is seeking this fish.
The fish is both an individual, and yet through some sort of magnetism, becomes attached to the ship that is looking for it. This fish with quasi weird boundaries is real.
Indigenous cultures are people of the earth and remember their own origination.
The Hopi were the first people and saw the first bear.
The Hawaiian red bird did not "exist" before it was pointed out by a quasi- divinity who could "see" it.
The Dalai Lama and Neuroscientists agree on Subjective Realism. The mind receives a massive influx of information, filters it down according to its logic, then projects it's worldview back out, and each person interacts with their own projection.
After enlightenment, Buddha didn't sleep.
Very well presented 👍👍
This is excellent
Appreciate you 🙏 Blessings 🕊
Thank you sir 🙏🏾

I had a dream a few nights ago where a man kept singing the lyrics "fish again" and I was going through different portals. Some events happened today which meant work was cancelled and then this video came up as a recommendation. Having no idea it would blow my fucking mind, I clicked on it. 52 minutes and 62 seconds later, I've gone through a portal. WELL DONE and THANK YOU.
Thank you for sharing this! Blessings Alice 🙏♥️
Wow just amazing content and delivery. I watched the video a few times over and over, walked away to digest and came back to it again. I am still digesting.
Joseph are you doing one on one teachings/coaching? If you do, I like to learn more about it.
Thank you so much for all the effort you put into this fascinating and significant body of work. It’s much needed at this time in our world.
Appreciate the kind remarks. I've Zoom'ed (Audio or Video) with many others from TH-cam discussing Jung, consciousness, reality, and their personal life if you are interested. You can email info@humbleumedia.com and we can set something up. Regardless, sending love and light to you on your journey!
amazing work, keep it up you’ll get the credit you deserve
Appreciate your comment Jahfari. 🙏 Will do
brilliant, thanks
Thank you! 🙏
Thanks Joseph.
Thank you as always Johnny! 🙏
At 11:07 you show an illustration of the ego ship with 3 sails and then the magnet and the fish and philosopher's stone....this pictograph very much reminds me of some of the runes that Ka explained. I can see a profound connection.
So glad to see you include the Juan and Maria Balboa translations of Greek philosophy. If you haven’t already connected with his material, I recommend Pierre Grimes as a teacher of Greek philosophy who makes the link that Jung did not, and that you allude to here. Delving into the spirituality of platonic and neo-platonic philosophy (in addition to the pre-socratics) has been very enlightening for me.
You are the first person I’ve met who know of this work! Yes, I’ve actually added Pierre in a few of my past lectures. I found Jung after an experience with Self. But since finding this new translation, my entire focus has shifted to connecting Jung to the TRUE philosophers. I’m working through Plato’s Parmenides now.🤯 (You’ll enjoy the next series I have coming next) Blessings!
@@HumbleUMedia excellent! In my own circle I put together a weekly study/discussion group covering Proclus’s Elements of Theology. Exploring these teachers with others was a deeper level of engagement than doing it alone. Godspeed with the Parmenides, it is a dragon in itself and well worth the time and effort. Glad to connect with you here ⭕️
Deep and delicious. Thank you.
Thanks again Quinn! 🌊
I think most of Jung's specific techniques for working on the individuation process where clearly outlined by Parmenides (like active imagination). Even they were presented by the Greek as healing tools. Maybe he was dazzled by his own projection. That's the reason why one usually doesn't see things that are clear, even obvious, to others
Are you familiar with a book name A Course in Miracles ? It takes Jung's thinking to the spiritual level in relation to religion. The connections for me are earth shaking. You can follow a train of thought from Spinoza to Jung to ACIM. Add in the time factor or the authors it becomes an evolution.
I have heard about it but have yet to pick it up. This Truth is found everywhere! Does this book capture it integrally? Or have another myth with new words to say the same thing? 🙏 Thanks Bob. I appreciate the comment.
Brilliant
Thanks Sterling.
Joseph thank you for your excellent delineation of the key Jungian concepts of ego, self, unconscious and the rest of it. I first read Jung many years ago and thought I had a fairly good grasp of him but you have brought out and clarified much. I have listened to your Red Book talks and am inspired to give it another reading after what you have said about it. A friend gave me a copy of that belonged to his mother who was a Jungian analyst after she passed away. Keep up the god work. BTW this morning I was listening to an interview of several of the masterminds of AI, their outlook was generally very dark, what/how do you see AI’s impact on humanity, life on earth in the future. In particular AI is one-dimensional, I.e. limited to the mental level….
I’ve wanted to do a video on AI and I (artificial vs intelligence) as we are losing our instincts. Our thinking and intuition are being stripped from the common folk, and then you don’t have that all you have is what someone else programs into you. Scary times indeed… unless we come back to Self and humble ourselves 😋 I’ll have more videos out soon! Much love ❤️
Thanks I have going through this "work" as a layman to academia, I struggle not with the conceptual ideas but with the meaning attributed to the words whether outdated latin or big ol' college words. thanks for the breakdown, Maybe ill try to read Aion, but I have a feeling I will not be able to understand as with most philosophers. Honestly I am not sure if being uneducated is slowing down this process or speeding it up, but I would find solace in what I am going through is explainable and relatable to others.
As I was listening to this, a raptor flew over my head grasping a small fish.
Synchronized ♾ 🔥🔥🔥
Bro please drop the drama of emotions, it just shows that you are surely excited.
Apologies my form distracts you from the essence. Appreciate your feedback 🙏♥️
great work, happy to see you doing these lecture. More babies are appreciated. lol.
Thanks again Joshua! Appreciate the comment, and will do! 🐣
I hope not to create controversy but so much of this is the experience of psychedelic “trip” for those who are aware of what is happening to them in the trip. This is essentially a spiritual awakening and experience. I’m always fascinated Jung got there without using those substances or magnesium.
No controversy at all. I appreciate the comment. I have also reached these states without psychedelics, so I can attest to this as well. Although, it took years of purity and solitude to reach.
I’m curious about your experience... if you wish to share... in relation to this content.
Much love Merlin
I think there’s a graduation process or a elevation process of this Where we realize we don’t need drugs to induce the experience. I’ve been at work doing this for a year now with no relapse of drinking and a greater sense of my (self) . Daily work. Your videos are amazing and show Jung’s amazing decent into the depths of consciousness and self and I believe more importantly the rise into a new be-ing . I have regular discussions with a large community of people who use etheogens to achieve this alchemical process you masterly described in the video. Their universal experience is ditto to what Joseph Cambell and Alan Watts described years ago with knowledge of their prior work and experience. I’ve found that there are is no place of perfection with this but layers of the conscious/unconscious self that are transformed by hard long work . There is of course the awakening that does produce a total and permanent change but with other areas that remain for more self improvement. There were so many things in your Red Book series that speak of the catharsis of spiritual development I enjoyed. My experience last year was on 400ug of LSD which was horrible and beautiful at the same time. The intensity of that high dose was brain crushing but the release from the body and bliss of oneness was simultaneously amazing and totally worth it . I’m planning on another expedition but at a much lower dosage lol mainly to reinforce the prior experience and to get into that egoless state again. After that I’m planning on just doing more traditional work with a guide and see where that goes.
so we are a momentary fragment in space-time. and we think we are IT. life tho will show us that we are not, that idea must die in us. most people won't accept this terrible crucifixion, they are kicking and screaming about it. but all religions teach we must lay down our egos and bow to something greater. Jung says to accept this process, and 'from the depths' the SELF will arise to assure you that you are infinite in the ONE. and science now is theorizing that we are finite particles floating in an 'infinity'- hard to wrap one's mind around that. multiple worlds and realities. Einstein and Jung arrived at the same time in history. one explored the outer world and the other the inner world.....it seems like now both theories are leading to the same conclusion, INFINITY is the only true reality, a double revelation! and Joseph, great series, i feel you brother!!
I love that. Beautifully stated. You see. 👁🙏

In reflection of all my recent and past posts. I have begun to realize what I am now awaking too. The Truth of God. If God truly created everything. Then that includes EVERYTHING. The Devil, Demons, Angels, Humans, etc. In other words all the colors: Pink, Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple, Violet, Indigo, Fifty Shades of Grey, Plus the mixing equals Black absorbing, and White reflecting. The Full Color Spectrum That is Life. For we all stand in the Light and Cast a Shadow at the same time. Stay Human. LOVE with Grace. This is what I am working on. Internal Alchemy plus external Alchemy. Why..? Because when you mirror reality all of God is embedded in it. Truth..!

What is the source of the figure on @3:51 . Did you draw it or is it from the book?
What of the Lens?
The transcendental self is identical to God's image within me? Pro-found! Thank you 📘🙏❤️🔥
Bro do you have reading list.
The Greeks viewed water as Consciousness. So, Thales of Miletus was saying that everything comes from consciousness. Even science is exploring that idea now. For more, see Professor Donald Hoffman out of University of California, Berkley. Personally, I know this to be true. Further, the Gnostics weren't called "Gnostics" back then; They were called "The Essenes."
Would you link the copy of aion you read?
archive.org/details/collectedworksof92cgju
What is "the doctrine"? It seems there is a text or a body of knowledge which is necessary to translate the ego and the self. This would be the framework that allows the proper sorting, it seems..
Still don’t know how to individuate..how?
My Brother, a question please 🙏
If you carry your identity into your dream state, is it a dream? Or a vision?
Your opinion would be valued.
Would love to clarify before responding. Identity as in? Like a persona? EGO? Or true identity, Self? If it is the later, there is nothing carrying identity, rather it carrying you.
As for dream state, can you expand on what you mean by this? Like an active imagination/meditation type, or sleeping or what exactly are you meaning by “dream state”
This should help further this discussion
I know what jung meant when he said is there not one!!!
Who has the correct interpretation of the ancient Greeks though? Peter Kingsley??
I think the neo understanding of “mindfulness meditation” may have lost the plot as to the purpose and meaning behind why it’s so effective at healing mental afflictions. You don’t simply silence yourself and listen to thought patterns, you are instead having a conversation with yourself and the universe which is also you.
If I talk over you again and again we will get nowhere in understanding eachother, if I stay silent and let you speak you are getting no input as to my advice on the situation. The respectful back and forth with oneself in the mind is where the golden nugget of growth is prospected.
Imagine talking to someone who has no senses. They will find a way to communicate one way or another. Emotion, visions, sudden realizations: I believe these are all forms of communication the inner you is using to communicate. Imagination is the tool by which you receive the messages.
The Greeks were after the Gnostics read Atlantis from Donnelly and irish wisdom hidden in ancient PYRAMIDS.. I think that will help with the confusion..
The “Greeks” I am speaking about are around 600-500 BC... Gnostics were hundreds of years later. Maybe the modern Greeks of the time were after them but I’m speaking about something completely different.
I do appreciate the comment 🙏
Are there any books you suggest reading
Great video. I love how you set all that up without really giving it way. Well done sir. Its made my workout even better
I’ll be posting about this content soon. I’ve added a few links with a great translation in this video description. It’s heavy but worthy of you start seeing it. I appreciate it and you ability to see the style behind the commentary. Blessings 🙏
moisture ..... it is not a symbol for the self... it is the essence of the self... u notice when u feel happy and good and like ur being is in a flow state, u feel a moisture thru out ur body ... u literally feel dry and not juicy when ur in a lower mood
You sound exactly like Christen slater idk how or why I noticed love ur content kinnda testing if anyone else hears it any who Lemmy Start this video back up peace
🐲🦁🐲
So now you're doing videos chapter by chapter right?
I go wherever the Logos takes me. The next video will be a 7-part series on Jung’s 7 sermons to the dead from his Red and Black books.
What's more puzzling to me is I thought Jung could read Greek so I doubt his overlooking came from bad translations. (Neither would he make such a mistake considering his historical understanding and fascination)
Him being a Nietzsche fan he must have surely seen that there is some importance hidden in Platos works.
Maybe he deliberately devoted himself to others less popular than the Greeks because the Greeks already got enough attention collectively while he seeked to fish around the surrounding areas to bring his finds to the collective as well.
Agreed! Not sure why I had it so loud, but I've lowered the background music on recent videos. Thanks for the feedback.
I don't won't to be anything, I don't own anything but I still find myself working for money be it I am doing what I love to do, driving a 18 Wheeler gives me all the alone time I enjoy so much.
