Joseph nailed it towards the end - our culture is in the throws of death & no one is talking about it. The only way through is by individuals attending to their internal soul life & responding to what's there. Perhaps we can start by asking ourselves every day - how much can I feel my heart, my warmth? What's the thing I know I should do, it's weighing me down & but I don't do it? Who & what do I hate? This last question, as Joseph pointed out, is the easiest to identify & the hardest to do something about because it means you gotta see some truth about yourself that you've so masterfully hidden from yourself.
I had an NDE and I can tell you it is very real. I was actually left with abilities I did not have before or at least I was not aware of. I would say that I consider some thing not to be real if there is no tangible sort of proof, although my belief has changed in that respect, anyway, the tangible prove to me as the abilities I have been left with. I can entirely relate to this feeling of being whole and complete and free. Why wouldn’t we be? We are leaving behind all of our physical aspects and everything that we endured while we were here. We don’t forget it just becomes like a long, faded memory. There is life after death, and if everyone was able to have a peek behind the veil, there would be no doubt. I suppose I gave up my will to live at one point when I had this NDE. I would have to agree with that statement as well. I’m fascinated with Carl Jung, and didn’t know until recently that he had an NDE as well. But I now understand why he believes what he believes. Thank you for all your episodes. They are so informative and the pace in which you speak is so calming and relaxing.
Bravo for taking a run at such a huge topic. When you come up for air how about an episode on sexuality and the shadow? I promise to donate when I'm able.
26:15 - "She had a very scientific materialistic rationalistic attitude toward the world. ...And here's the dream:" [Ad cuts in: "WELCOME TO OUR PRODUCT-TESTING WING! The perfect amount of fun!" (Blue Bunny ice cream)] 🤣 WRT her actual dream, and the part about suspecting that the "revolving door" might be a trap, I've seen this idea cropping up on the internet, that the "light at the end of the tunnel" is indeed a trap, that will extract your memories and force you to reincarnate. The people who promote this hypothesis are not materialists, but Gnostic and Gnostic-adjacent mystics. They claim that we should try to avoid "going into the Light" in order to break free from the Demiurge and the cycle of life and death. Which brings up the question: How do we know that the "something greater" that we are supposed to embrace at death is not a Lovecraftian cosmic horror? Just because something is "greater" that us, doesn't mean it is good, or that "good" or "evil" as we understand them even make sense in relation to It. We still have to ask, does a little boy dying of leukemia or a little Ukrainian girl being shredded by a Russian missile attack provide the sort of "aesthetic" end-of-life process that this "something greater" wants? It seems to be OK with the idea, as it keeps sending "souls" (or whatever term one might prefer) into the meat-grinder. How do we know that this "something greater" does not regard us in much the same way as we regard chickens?
Good questions! I’d love to see such questions explored in a novel, and see what the novelist’s sub/unconconscious provided as the answer. That being the only way to find out.. imo.
I had a major dream when in my late 20s. It has taken me 45 years to fully understand the entire dream. The dream contained all complexes that were hidden in bizarre symbols, including a cellar, potatoes, a white haired ancient woman, and a snake. Dreams are all revealing, and they know us.
Death will be an easy crossing for those whom feel their life was lived well. I suppose everyone has their own beliefs regarding what living life well means for them.

I'm addicted to this channel!!
Thinking of a friend who died recently, this episode gave me solace and resonated deeply. Death is one of the last great mysteries. Thank you.
This episode is just so touching to me. Some quotes from Jung and the three analysts are so beautiful that they made me cry.

I hope you do an episode delving into the NDEs through a Jungian lens
Would love for an episode on homosexuality.
Thank you 💀 🥀 ⚰️ hospice chaplain

You don’t logically “know”, but your unconscious knows.

Ain’t a gonna need this house no longer
He’s a getting ready to meet the SAINT.
Fascinating.

I suppose everyone has their own beliefs regarding what living life well means for them.
For those from poor countries, material comfort is sufficient, those from rich nations have different levels of needs
