- "I don't need to believe, I know" When Carl Jung made this claim about God there was a lot of obvious controversy over what he meant, in this video I present what he truly meant by such a claim with a letter he sent to help clarify his view on God to the public

I think this was a quote by Empedocles.
The difficulty of a finite being attempting to comprehend the infinite.
We define things through concepts comprehend things through experience and vice versa
You are not a finite being.
You are infinate. Your body is finite.

He knows God. A mystic doesn’t believe in God, as he has experienced gnosis in his heart.
True
Did u not hear?-he did not say "I know god"..... yet you need to put your words in his mouth.
God is The Living Truth
@Benjamin Andersen Carl Jung died , and had a near death experience on the 4 / 4 / 44 aged 69 , he also had mystical experiences in his life , that's why he knows there's something else , but he's like me not sure if there's a god , but we might survive after death anyway .
@Benjamin Andersen Religion has been deliberately misinterpreted that's why it does not make any sense , it seems to me that real religion is based on the stars , the sun , and the moon, all ancient cultures used to worship what was in the heavens , and our religious stories come from Egypt , Osiris , Isis , and Horace , are the same story as Joseph , Mary and Jesus , the pyramids were built as a map of the Orion belt , and extraterrestrial's have had a influence on mankind , now you might think that's all rubbish , but i have seen U F O 's close up back in 1989 , so i know like Carl Jung there is something else .
I think he said "I Know" because God is in us at some level and most of us feel it.
I always knew I was god
@@tylerrankin5857 You are feeling the Holy Spirit aspect of god. The other two is the flesh (Jesus) and the creating cause (Father)
@@MakisHMMY we are fragments of Gods light, mini gods as Jesus said, and one day we will see fully when we are in the fullness (Ocean) of the Light.
God is both "out there" and "in here". God permeates everthing. And even though we ourselves are well beyond our own fathoming, there remains much else beyond our capacity to fully understand that must exist outside and beyond ourselves. The fundamental recognition of God, in my opinion, begins with the apprehension that an individual, with a single mind and possible "free will" (with the possibility to alter the nature of future reality through "choice"), is yet part of an much greater and encompassing system. That ultimately everything is information, and "information is everything". That all physical processes are ultimately informational processes, that mind itself must be some kind of informational process, and that, even as we as individuals are embedded within a much greater physical reality, the informational processes corresponding to our intelligences are similarly embedded and emersed within a much vaster intelligence.
@@tommackling brilliantly put thank you
This is crazy, and super synchronistic. Like two weeks ago i watched that same interview and had to rewind on that same specific segment, and i was surprised the interviewer just brushed off that answer like it was nothing !!! I know EXACTLY what he means. In that same interview he talks about an experience he had when he was 11, where he said something along the lines of "I came out of the fog". He experienced God in his own consciousness. This is what I experienced about two months ago, for 5 minutes my ego construct was gone, and I experienced the beauty that lies behind this construct. It came in combination with a kundalini awakening over a longer period of time and I even had a psychotic breakdown lol, but it was the best experience I've had in my entire life. Synchronicities became clear as day, I saw meaning and symbolism in everything, the universe was sort of like speaking to me, I felt connected to everything, I felt enormous energy, purpose, clarity and creativity. When you experience this you just KNOW what God is. And it became even more clear to me how the current society and way of thinking about the world leads you in the complete other direction. Every human has the ability to experience this. Every, single, one, of, us.
"I am in the father and the father is in me"
=
"My individual consciousness is in the universal consciousness, and the universal consciousness is in me."
How can I have this experience? I've been looking for them for a long time.
stay off drugs
Only you and God know the Truth of your experience. Ignore the comments from those whose faith makes them blind and stupid.
@@Christian360News Christain and muslim fundamentalism is the reason for the growth of athiesm. Stil you ppl don't understand.
@@Christian360News the message jesus came to earth with was exactly as he said. The father is in me and all these thing s and more you shall also do. Jesus is only a representation of total union with all things (God). It is not a necessity to persue an experience of God through jesus although you can if you wish. Quite simply God (our loving father) would never be so cruel as to create such a restriction. Seek God in whichever way you feel most drawn to. You are already saved and very much loved. Religion is not a necessary component to union with all that is.
I studied Carl Jung he was such an amazing man, I TRULY BELIEVED He WAS WAY AGHEAD OF HIS TIME IN HIS EXCELLENT TEACINGS. In my studies to becoming a Psychoanalyst many years ago. I found him to be one the most humble of teachers. Thank you so much FOR YOUR VIDEOS.
I want to see the studies
Time?
Great mind Jung was an occultist, alchemy & ancient esoteric teaching were very present in his creating constructing his own analysis! I'd certainly not be surprised if he wasn't a free mason!
Jung was very good. And if you want to surpass even Jung, "A Course in Miracles" is the ultimate psychology curriculum, from The Source Itself.
I would have answered this question the exact same way that Jung did. And I am the prophesied return of the biblical prophet Elijah. Here is what I mean when I say "I don't have to believe, I know." And this may be precisely what Jung meant. But I am a man of fewer words:
I know that there is an absolute Reality that one can call "GOD," which is in total control of absolutely everything because it IS absolutely everything. GOD is the Mind that is ALL. And I know this because I have found this Truth through Reason and Revelation, such that I cannot possibly believe otherwise.

Plus he's an absolute JOY to read and those foorlt notes. Such an interesting cat!
To those who are seeking gnosis, and finding true self, I commend you with the highest compassion, as I know how hard this journey is. Recently, I've felt like my ego is a wounded animal, desperate to self preserve by identifying with my highest self. Sometimes it feels like I'm going insane, trying to outwit my ego, but through meditation, I can reach this peace of true self, as I become cellularly one with the Source. And I'm happy for everyone else on this path with me. Jung is such an inspiration.
Hope it went well. I'm just starting

Intriguing, and with a touch of mysticism besides logic; Carl Gustav Jung explains it well. Enough said. Thumbs up.
Ecclesiastes 1:13-14 NKJV
[13] And I set my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all that is done under heaven; this burdensome task God has given to the sons of man, by which they may be exercised. [14] I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and indeed, all is vanity and grasping for the wind
Out of the Spirit of God is dust, air and fire. Get back as soon as possible to the Maker of all.🍷🌌
He says I know God because he knows himself.
@The Fermented Sailor Hitler was a Catholic who used to prayed and everything to God. He didn't of himself as God he thought he was doing gods work.
You are God in the flesh. You are nature. You are millions of billions of cells. They all have energy in them they all live. You perceive the world trough his eyes so your eyes. Everyone is doing gods work. Be it evil or benevolent. He is she is dark and the light. The mother has a womb and in it there is darkness being born is being taken into the light. Being alive is being consciousness. Doing what is needed to stay alive and to keep your friends and family alive is nature. Doing what you think is right is dependent on your DNA your upbringing your surroundings and your amount of trauma and your ability to deal with that trauma. Jung found out what a human is in its core and how you keep that healthy, prosperous and strong. A human needs purpose if taken away this purpose in what ever way you'll encounter trauma be it trough a chemical unbalance or nutritional unbalance or a imbalance in status or place and role in social settings this human being will find the animal inside and if there is no integration of the two you'll end up like me or any other outcast out of the garden. Yung showed the people he loved the way to stability and others tried to copy his path. But not knowing how he came to know what he knows is going into the dark without a light to guide you. So before you type anything I suggest you read his texts and even then you'll need the tools he uses to get to the point of understanding. If you look at sick people like Hitler or other high social ranking people they all have one thing in common. They do what is necessary for them and their offspring be it their legacy or children. Every king or queen thought they were doing gods work. God is your perception of the world. God is the sun. God is the cells in your body. God is live that is unbelievable big. God is in your mind. Yung is trying to show you the door only you have to walk through it. You need outside stimulants and inside stimulants to be. The Anime and Animus. You are the vessel of God. Your body is the temple of God. Your brain is the seat of God. I am slowly getting worse and worse so here is some advice of a broken man. Live your life it is your live it is your connection to God internally and externally. Go and meet up with nature animals and people before your take your last breath. Create in what ever way you see fit because this is like God the omnipresent energy of life. And then live with the outcome this brings because that's what it is until you leave this earth behind. God bless you all.

@@illougal_invader yes
Interesting to see another aware
@The Fermented Sailor where'd you go? you missed Mats Jong latest comment. You could have learned something new!!
I am part Lakota, the wicasa wakan (shamans) of the Lakota used to speak of Wakan Tanka, the “Great Mystery” similarly:
“Then I was standing on the highest mountain of them all, and round about beneath me was the whole hoop of the world. And while I stood there I saw more than I can tell and I understood more than I saw; for I was seeing in a sacred manner the shapes of all things in the spirit, and the shape of all shapes as they must live together like one being. And I saw that the sacred hoop of my people was one of many hoops that made one circle, wide as daylight and as starlight, and in the center grew one mighty flowering tree to shelter all the children of one mother and one father. And I saw that it was holy.
This center which is here, but which we know is really everywhere, is Wakan Tanka”

thats fucking beautiful
Love black ilk
I love that your thumbnail inadvertently connects two people greatly influenced by the mystical (interfaith) Christian, Emanuel Swedenborg - William Blake and Carl Jung. He's also called by Suzuki, the Buddha of the North.
God is a word with a meaning moving towards "Absolute". God to science is absolute knowledge, but science does not call absolute knowledge God. People say God is "Absolute Love" or that God is "Absolute Answer" or God is ''Absolute Peace" or God is "Absolute Power" or God is "Absolute Passion" or God is "Absolute Principle". This is peoples attempt to reach the "Absolute" of an idea then attempting to define this idea into a meaning that is understandable. Then when you finally understand you get to understand beauty, but beauty was always there in the stories you just didn't understand why this was God. You're a child in a story who is trying to remember why, who, when, what and how.
Rumi said we are all born with a homesickness- we have come from the Oneness of God and when we shake off these "mortal coils" we will return.
God is absolute Lord and Savior who died on the cross for our sins and rose again.
God is Absolute stupidity - just as believable

4:00 reminded me of a poem by ibn arabi
Listen, O dearly beloved!
I am the reality of the world, the centre of the circumference,
I am the parts and the whole.
I am the will established between Heaven and Earth,
I have created perception in you only in order to be the object of My Perception.
If then you perceive Me, you perceive yourself.
But you cannot perceive Me through yourself.
It is through My Eyes that you see Me and see yourself,
Through your eyes you cannot see Me.
Dearly beloved!
I have called you so often and you have not heard Me.
I have shown Myself to you so often and you have not seen Me.
I have made Myself fragrance so often, and you have not smelled Me,
Savorous food, and you have not tasted Me.
Why can you not reach Me through the object you touch
Or breathe Me through sweet perfumes?
Why do you not see Me? Why do you not hear Me?
Why? Why? Why?
For you My delights surpass all other delights,
And the pleasure I procure you surpasses all other pleasures.
For you I am preferable to all other good things,
I am Beauty, I am Grace.
Love Me, love Me alone.
Love yourself in Me, in Me alone.
Attach yourself to Me,
No one is more inward than I.
Others love you for their own sakes,
I love you for yourself.
And you, you flee from Me.
Dearly beloved!
You cannot treat Me fairly,
For if you approach Me,
It is because I have approached you.
I am nearer to you than yourself,
Than your soul, than your breath.
Who among creatures
Would treat you as I do?
I am jealous of you, over you,
I want you to belong to no other,
Not even to yourself.
Be Mine, be for Me as you are in Me,
Though you are not even aware of it.
Dearly beloved!
Let us go toward Union.
And if we find the road
That leads to separation,
We will destroy separation.
Let us go hand in hand.
Let us enter the presence of Truth.
Let It be our judge
And imprint Its seal upon our union
For ever.
From: Henri Corbin. Creative Sufism ‘Alone with the Alone: Creative Imagination in the Sufism of Ibn Arabi, p. 174-75
Thanks
This is why Sufism is considered heretical in Islam... because Sufis believe that in order to reach perfection you have to be like God... and so they try all their life to become God... a heresy
Absolutely beautiful as only the Truth can be.
Francelee Paris god is in full power of all truth and all a human can do is to search all that truth, one must be in race with himself when it comes to perfection in belief through the pursuit of knowledge of reality and truth, but perfection with oneself is the aim, to strive in every way possible
Khalid Hakimi ... sorry, don’t know what you are talking about..
In an interview on his 80th birthday, Jung said: "But do you know who anticipated my entire psychology in the eighteenth century? The Hassidic Rabbi Baer from Meseritz, whom they called the Great Maggid. He was a most impressive man." What's interesting is that when Rabbi Dov Ber's disciple Rabbi Levi Yitzchak of Berditchev returned from visiting him, he was asked what he gained. "You believe in God, but I know." Knowledge means an intimate connection and sense of other, as we see when Adam was intimate with Eve, the Torah's language is: "And Adam knew Eve."
“God is an energy that gave us power (soul) to produce energy through a cycle which LIFE .”

Great Video, Subscribed 👍
This man has pierced through the veil.
What would a church look like, if Jung was the pastor? I really do value this question, for important reasons that may be obvious.
He may have known of his own god, but he did not say he was a believer in Jesus Christ... or he would have said so. To each's own.
Believing to belief must go thru transformations (IMHO). 1. hope, there is/there isn't, for the same reason - I hope either one will work, but hope is not knowing. 2. faith based upon trusting, doing, it (seems to), works & faith is built but faith is still not knowing. 3. fact/knowing becuz something has been proven to YOU. Something you cannot prove to others, don't need to, but trust because transformation has brought one to this "fact", a knowing, & a fact is something one "knows" because it has been proven to them.
Thank you for reading this, I appreciated listening to it and it confirms an assumption I had made when I saw this interview a couple of years ago.
I had an experience in my teenage years and a number since and Jung's views resonate with my own. You mention Jordan Petersen's views are similar and that this because of the influence on him from reading Jung, possibly true, though I'm sure many share these thoughts simply out of experience too.
God simply is, its like truth, truth simply is, God or truth are universal in understanding, it/they simply are.
Indeed reminds me of the one who said "When the spirit of truth has come he will guide you into all truth"
@@incorruptibleword4513 I used to fight what people say until I was quiet in the word of Christ.
Sounds like pandeism or omnideism or in other words redundant
Jung was unwillingly a servant of the Christ Jesus, as the churches abused the souls of their sheep and finally got lost within the abysses of their own dogmatic thinking and believing. Jung was a passionate and simple truth seeker on the topics of soul-care and spiritual activity.

"Why go to the forest for finding god? He resides inside you find him there"
- guru nanak founder of sikhism
I go to the forest to get away from all of those people in whom GOD also resides, but wearing loud ego overcoats, that I may find silence and the GOD within.
And then I go back to the city to test myself.
Repeat.

And this may be precisely what Jung meant. But I am a man of fewer words, and am very concise. And here is why I say that "I know":

And I know this because I have found this Truth through Reason and Revelation, such that I cannot possibly believe otherwise.

Why did you put flashy glitch effects over the pictures and put heavy rock music as a backround on the video, focusing on Carl Jung?
If somebody answers the God question with just a yes or no does not actually understand the question

There are two types of people: those who believe and those who don't and the last are already condemned. Knowledge without repentance is still not good.

OK but can someone explain the explanation?
i got into jung some time ago. it's weird because I arrived on the same conclusion from another angle (to me god was Chaos), but i see a commonality and a bridge between his and mine interpretation: the Self is all the possibilities of what i could become from birth. at that moment it was pure chaos, or it would have been determined to be something else (still, in the limits given by being a human). knowing yourself, your mind, is the same as meeting the personal god he talks about, in which they're both pure chaos. only chaos can have an essence: the other things are structured and formed in an orderly way by things around them, by laws of physics or our interpretation of them. your Self then gets formed by your experiences and actions, what you've perceived and what you've produced, narrowing down a path of habit and identification to external things to itSelf, creating your personality, a mask that covers your essence. uncovering that mask is caused by a psychedelic experience (like schizophrenia, where you don't have to make an effort to discover your mind, because you project it on the external world. other kinds of psychosis lock you in into the chain, diverting it from going in a straight line to going in a loop. you then see your mind not because of a projection, but because of habit) or thought (like jung's realization that you're both a subject and an object. this happens early in childhood and could explain why everybody has believed in a god, unconsciously, until they decided they didn't, because they couldn't experience it nor think about it. but there are more psychedelic thoughts like that one: any one that produces doubt about your identity, or the state of the world, and makes you wonder about the possibilities that were discarded and never realized), your mind reveals itself and you have access to its structures. with enough effort and time, you could destructure it layer by layer, going back in the causal determined chain of events that happened to you more and more as the possibilities were reduced to the life that you have lived.
Deus est circulus cuius centrum est ubique, cuis circumferentia vero nusquam. [God is a circle whose center is everywhere, but whose circumference is nowhere]
St Thomas Aquinas- "The highest knowledge of God is to know God as unknowable."
in Islam some attributions of God:
God is one and unique, peerless, eternal, without beginning or end, the first and the last. He is all-knowing, all-wise, all-mighty, all-hearing, and all- seeing. He has no body or physical form, and cannot be seen by the eyes of the body in this world or the Hereafter. He cannot descend to earth in the form of man. He is not at a particular place, but there is no place where God is not present. He is nearer to us than our jugular vein and knows what we do, even what passes through our hearts. He is Just but also the most Merciful and Compassionate.[a manual of Islamic Beliefs and Practice, p3-4]
yeah, close to what he was saying i'm sure. thumbs up
Classic ambiguous religious comment. Could mean anything.... Very boring.
@@dgh25 OH SNAP ! .. but yeah.
TY TY This adds a Lot 2 CJ's words.
When as a young person you believe in a fulfilment to be wholesome as a person and the journey in life that is yours to choose (whatever comes along the way) to believe in God to be of completion of oneself, is to be as good as one can be upon realisation of the past mistakes that are almost inevitable in whatever road life takes you down. From a man's point of view his utmost goal allegedly is to be of his own making of fulfilment as said to know his own God.

@@mrob2185 glad to know u could only joke....I was afraid..that you really understood Jung..
Joseph Campbell said that God is a metaphor for all the energy in the universe. This is the best explanation I have ever heard of who or what God is.
If a definition includes everything, then it denotes nothing.

I use to wonder if there was a God then I saved a drowning child, now I know with absolute certainty that there is a force, which cares about drowning children, that I choose to call God.
(7/26) Seems to me people assign their own belief of what God is to everyone else then hate them for believing it.
Why I was guided to that lake that day and given the strength to help that child I can only wonder, and often do, but it was a blessing for everyone involved and certainly changed my life because after that.. "I knew".
I don't try to describe it but I like how Einstein did: "My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble minds."
If you're not open to learning something I can promise you will never know.

Are you aware of the philosopher Alfred Whitehead and his process-relational metaphysics? There have been a few connections between the Whitehead's philosophy and that of Jung's.
Never heard of him, thanks for bringing him up, I will look into it 😊
Like what exactly
I recommend Alan Watts if you want a philosopher that is on Jung's level.
Watts has lectures and discussions on Jung as well.
@@mikeydoes i highly like Watts, but hes nowhere near Jungs level, Jungs is for the study of mans un/counsciousness and psychology, what Einstein, Tesla, and all the others combined was to mathemathics and physics.
@@danielantunes1035 Jung was top in his field. Watts is in a completely different field and clearly tops at what he did and how many people he has also influenced. This comparison is pointless.
Watts teaches, for lack of a better term real enlightenment. Watts highly respected him and Krishnamurti, none of them would pretend that they were better than anyone.

Many people speak to God, it makes them happy and confident...I like to speak to myself, it makes me feel happy and confident.
Oh God
.. yet you are speaking to God :).. arent you a little budhha?
marin djurkovic Little, strong, powerful or weak, I’ve spoken to all of my self’s in order to work for the benefit of others.🙏
Its kinda the same thing.
@@garyinmarz8938.. :D thank you for your service!
Awesome man, I've never really been religious but I've always been spiritual and curious. Jung's work into our psyche is as, if not more, vital than Einstein's work on our understanding of the nature of space. We should continue to strive forth on both fronts.
I would love to see the similarities on Peterson's and Jung's views.
Peterson’s? Easy - Peterson is a fraud, so he’d just copy someone else...there you have it.
@@marinobrajdo6488 lol kinda like an artist its quite easy to be inspired by another's works/beliefs. For example if you convinced people of the idea of introverts and extroverts it wouldn't make you a fraud it would mean you have been influenced by his ideas

carl jung heavily influenced AA, which has the phrases "god as you understand him" or "higher power". 14 years ago I turned myself over to a power greater than myself. I became sober, undepressed, and had a great life. about 7-8 years later I became a science teacher and then started to identify as agnostic/atheist. I became physically disabled. I live with chronic pain. I thought very seriously about trying to pursue assisted suicide in a legal manner in a different country. I finally decided again to try the "God delusion" as Hawkins would call it. I started reading spiritual books again. I start praying and meditating again. some minutes I am a believer in the sublime. in other minutes, I cannot wait for my stardust to return to the universe and begin their long decay into nothingness. However, I am happiest when I am working towards some goal to help others with a steady belief that my higher power is using me in some small way for the good of all.
you can call me a fool, you can call me whatever, I don't care anymore what people think of me for the most part. I once had dream that went roughly as so. it was a surreal dream. I woke up in my childhood room, but things were slightly different. I was sleeping on my cot from daycare. I heard God's voice call to me in a low yet still thunderous rumble.
I crawled out my window, saying "God is that you"?
to which he replied "yes!!!". I then said "prove it" and I saw the largest shooting star I had ever seen.
to which I responded, "well that could be a coincidence".
then the entire sky turned to white from shooting stars, and yet still I said "this could all be a coincidence".
but then God spoke my name with such a thundering power that I felt his presence and it was undeniable. humbled, I fell to the ground said, "I am so glad I found! I have been looking for you everywhere, there is so much I want to know!"
to which God responded with a chuckle "ok, what do you want to know".
Immediately with no hesitation, I blurted out "EVERYTHING!!!.
God just chuckled again and said, "ok, let's go". we took off at the speed of light and God taught me everything in an instant that lasted for an eternity.
God then said, "okay you are going to wake up, but you won't remember anything that I taught you, except......"
Reflexively I started to want to protest, but after a split second, a lump in my throat caught the first syllable. How could I argue with God. with humility I nodded to his decree.
God laughed a final time. it's a laugh that that gives you nirvana and God said, "just remember that I am".
then I woke up. I had been having a number of sleep paralysis dreams prior to this dream. they went away and did not come back for years. Years later I read that God revealed himself to Moses in a similar way. Moses called him Yahweh which means, "I am"
part of the time I know it truly was God. the other part the time I doubt it. However, when life goes wrong. I lean on that concept of God for my sanity. at these times I would say "I know there is a God, I met him, and the dude is funny as fuck".
Nether are we God nor God uses us for any reason. it/he tests us within our circumstances weather we are fit or not for the next plane of existence.
I once met God on a mushroom trip and all he said to me was "everything will be ok."
I believe that could've been more than a dream. You may have in fact been manipulated, not by some mythical "Creator," but by the Warden/Demiurge of this planetary system. It's intent (perhaps) is to keep us confused and ignorant of our true spiritual estate (hence the violent plethora of contradicting world-views and religions) trapped in perpetual amnesia, with powerful suggestions/reprogramming (in between lives) using an energy-drug we interpret as "Love."
It cooks-up and/or stands by while we confabulate the toxic brew of Faiths and ideologies we so love to slaughter one another over, keeping us eternally divided and in pain. But It needs recruits willing to remain acquiescent to It's domination of the souls trapped in the Earth system, thus It continually sews contradiction and confusion with various forms of "Light;" (NDE's, personal encounters with "God," Jesus and all the rest of the religious and New Age crunk), helping to engender the faith - any kind of faith - It so desperately needs us blinded with, so that we don't manage to wiggle out of the control-net upon death and accidentally reclaim our true heritage as eternal individuated entities, with a score to settle with those who condemned us here...maybe. At any rate, any Creator that can jovially laugh in any context with all the evil committed in His name, is no Creator of mine. "Being Mysterious is no excuse for being a dick."
The ratio of Dark-to-Light in this Reality is far too out-of-line for me to accept there is a supernatural benevolence underlying everything...
(By the way, the meaning of "Yahweh" is more of an obtuse title meaning "I Shall Prove To Be Who I Shall Prove To Be," It is _not_ "I AM." If you study the history of the dark belief systems sponsored by this Construct/Entity, you may uncover profound, unacceptable contradictions).
@@midplanewanderer9507 interesting insight. for me, it is what it is. I just go about my life trying to be a good person. i can never truly understand why suffering exists. i like the Buddhist take on it. to me, my dream was just my subconscious trying to figure out issues i had being raised Christian, then becoming agnostic, but hoping for some sort of spiritualism. i am glad i joined AA, and created a higher power of my own understanding. somedays I consider myself agnostic. most days i see myself being on a spiritual quest. i do not know much, but I know I like your comment. you seem like you are on a quest too
@@kurtlowder3276 I actually regret having written it, because it is a toxic, dis-empowering suspicion that I really ought to learn to keep to myself. I appreciate your measured response to such a lunatic view. Ever see the movie Highlander? There's a part where the Kurgen warrior protagonist walks into the church and starts snuffing out all the candles lit on a prayer alter, chuckling with gleeful malevolence. I don't wanna be that guy. Indeed I am on a quest, I'm just disappointed it led me to such a dark suspicious view of reality. I hope to be proven wrong. Hard-core atheism would be preferable, but I was ripped out-of-the-box by the scruff of my neck years ago, with a series of "paranormal" events. I can't ensconce myself back into the comforting confines of the so-called rational skeptics.
I congratulate you on your sobriety, and warn you to mind the mind-traps one can fall into, contemplating these deeper things. There's _things_ down there, wriggling in the abyss. Peace man. Stay sane
At one point, Jung delved into mystical in as much as his family reported seeing spirits in their home. I suggest people read the Red Book but with caution as it can open up dangerous ideas and can lead some to the occult.
Is there a source to this? :D
Are you going to pick up the black books when they’re available?
We will have to see! 😊
Carl Jung wrote some very powerful works.
you don't say.
How about Jung packing heat at 2:00
Lol
He knew there was real evil in the world by permission of God.
😂 that caught my eye too

Can you give the letter?
He uses a large vocabulary to abstractly describe already understood basic concepts of 'God' in a very elaborate fashion. He also said 'I know' to peak peoples interest in his views not as he further explained. I really believe if you are not pretending and can follow and grasp everything he rattles of it isn't very insightful or inspiring at all.
Do 5 grams of shrooms and get spooked
I do agree with you in that he echoes what many philosophers already state, but what stands out to me was his statement about calling out for a higher being. Have you felt like you were in such pain that you yelled out “oh god” or “help me god” subconsciously? I think that anyone can honestly state that they’ve had a similar situation and shows our connection to a higher being. It’s instinctual.
Wrong , Before 1961 it was very insightful , he talked about his near death experience of 1944 , which was very unusual , his book the red book is a masterpiece of art , he had visions of the world wars , he popularised the words introvert and extrovert , he had his amazing Liverpool dream in 1927 you know Liverpool is the pool of life , and it was you know the Beatles , and Anfield for atmosphere the most feared in Europe and there's a lot more , all in all he was a genius .
Smart people don't "believe"-the rest need to....
So if your aeroplane is crashing in mid air....will you say oh my science?
Prastut Sharma no, you’ll accept it or go crazy. The religious are the ones too weak for the former.
surfinmuso if you’re only using faith as a criteria for your definition of smart then you can’t be more wrong, what about Nikola Tesla? Was he smart? He believed in a creator because he understood the world at much deeper level.
“The Gift Of Mental Power Comes From God, Divine Being, And If We Concentrate Our Minds On That Truth, We Become In Tune With This Great Power. My Mother Had Taught Me To Seek All Truth In The Bible.”
From my personal experience this statement is very true, I am a Muslim and awhile back my faith was very strong and I used to call god upon his names during the course of the day from morning till night and I can affirm that it was as if I was living in a different world, full of joy and smiling and no tension or worries and even if trouble came my way I knew that everything is from god and that there will be a solution and if no solution then it will be replaced with something better, I was not chasing materialistic things but only to please god alone by remembering him wherever I was and everything I was doing cannot break his law, and it is very strange because I used to have dreams where I have no words to describe them, it was as if god was rewarding me for overcoming the struggles of temptations which I had avoided and possibly a reminder from god to show me that the path I am in is leading to some place but now my faith is very weak and I commit sins and have forgotten god and I’m depressed and every minute of the day I’m stressing and never had I see those kind of dreams until I started calling god upon his beloved names and never have I seen them after I started to weaken in my faith and there had come a time where even if a lion was to confront me I would respond very accordingly to the situation of dealing with it without even thinking but there also has come a time where I was afraid of trees and walls and fear in my heart for no reason at all because I had forgotten god and chosen the way of Satan which is sin. This is only my experience and I wanted to share it with you guys but how do you explain my dreams? How!!!? It was very difficult to not stare at a beautiful girl the second glance and to suppress ones anger when you get angry at someone for the sake of god and for these struggles I believe the dreams were all from god and were divine dreams, there are 2 sides to this world the light side and the dark side and you have the choice but choose the light and call upon god and say if you’re real then I’m seeking you and guide me to you and if you go towards god a length of a palm he will come to you a hand span. Just remember wherever there is order then there is intelligence behind it, you can look around you, the tv and anything around you was made with precision and yet when it comes to the universe which is really really complex then you say this is by chance and then I say to you you’re not doing yourself a favour and with that I rest my case
@@khalidhakimi93 God is the personification of life in and of itself. No need for religion or mythological characters to be made real to understand the underlying meaning.
next time you believe someone saying something you can't prove, come back to your comment
Dr. Jung was such a brilliant man! I am better for learning for him.
Very easy to understand-Jung also travelled to India and said himself in the latter part of life 'That his love for Ramana Mahrishi Was his Knowing
Absolute genius!

Carl Jung's letter to you… the difference between believing and knowing.
Sir, - So many letters I have received have emphasized my statement about 'knowing' (of God) [in ‘Face to Face’, THE LISTENER, October 29]. My opinion about ‘knowledge of God’ is an unconventional way of thinking, and I quite understand if it should be suggested that I am no Christian. Yet I think of myself as a Christian since I am entirely based upon Christian concepts. I only try to escape their internal contradictions by introducing a more modest attitude, which takes into consideration the immense darkness of the human mind. The Christian idea proves its vitality by a continuous evolution, just like Buddhism. Our time certainly demands some new thought in this respect, as we cannot continue to think in an antique or medieval way, when we enter the sphere of religious experience.
I did not say in the broadcast, ‘There is a God’, I said ‘I do not need to believe in God; I know’. Which does not mean: I do know a certain God (Zeus, Jahwe, Allah, the Trinitarian God, etc.) but rather: I do know that I am obviously confronted with a factor unknown in itself, which I call 'God' in consensu omnium (‘quod semper, quod ubique, quod ab omnibus creditur’). I remember Him, I evoke Him, whenever I use His name overcome by anger or by fear, whenever I involuntarily say: ‘Oh God’.
That happens when I meet somebody or something stronger than myself. It is an apt name given to all overpowering emotions in my own psychical system subduing my conscious will and usurping control over myself. This is the name by which I designate all things which cross my willful path violently and recklessly, all things which upset my subjective views, plans, and intentions and change the course of my life for better or worse. In accordance with tradition I call the power of fate in this positive as well as negative aspect, and inasmuch as its origin is beyond my control, 'god', a 'personal god', since my fate means very much myself, particularly when it approaches me in the form of conscience as a vox Dei, with which I can even converse and argue. (We do and, at the same time, we know that we do. One is subject as well as object.)
Yet I should consider it an intellectual immorality to indulge in the belief that my view of a god is the universal, metaphysical Being of the confessions or 'philosophies'. I do neither commit the impertinence of a hypostasis, nor of an arrogant qualification such as: 'God can only be good'. Only my experience can be good or evil, but I know that the superior will is based upon a foundation which transcends human imagination. Since I know of my collision with a superior will in my own psychical system, I know of God, and if I should venture the illegitimate hypostasis of my image, I would say, of a God beyond good and evil, just as much dwelling in myself as everywhere else: Deus est circulus cuius centrum est ubique, cuis circumferentia vero nusquam.
"There are only two kinds of people in this world, one who has a mind but has no belief and one who has a religion but has no mind" said the Arab phliosopher "Al-Ma'arri" or as known by his latin name "Abulola Moarrensis" wrote more than a thousand years ago in his "Epistle of Forgiveness".

@@uncleusuh my mistake. yes
God created all the universes , but man created all these religions that tell how God wants you to act , that has always been the big lie , all we need to honor and cherish is this planet and how to make it better for all mankind
gods/religions only exist in the minds of certain people. Nowhere else.
For a closely reasoned and argued view, read neomodernistpoetry.blogspot.com/2018/11/on-human-suffering-and-concept-of-god.html
I just realized that I don't understand the difference between hypostasis and hypokeimenon.
Hoping someone here can explain
A hypostasis (sometimes called an "emanation") as I understand it is generally understood as a subcomponent of something which has its own discrete nature and a kind of autonomy. So you can imagine your "angry self" or "you when you're angry" as a hypostasis of "you" as a whole.
A hypokeimenon is a substance from which other things are made. So the hypokeimenon of water, steam and ice is H2O.
In the analogy from before, "angry you" is the hypostasis and "you" are the hypokeimenon.
To comfort oneself is our traits. One method is by listening to religion's claims especially when old comparing to listening to music when young.
Carl Jung sure is a friendly chap; prob easier to have a beer with than most. Thumbs up #913 i think carl jung tackled every possible angle humanly possible in his written letter-response. We have to remember, we have common experiences as humans but there is no common way of retelling, nor sharing them; the best we can do is to acknowledge the uniqueness of each contribution, and highlight those that encourage a similar journey. Very inspiring. Thumbs up again (if possible) END
Carl Jung and Jordan Peterson are two of the most inspirational people. They could literally save the world between them 😊
Who is Jordan Peterson? I'm intriqued to learn more.
@@zaraveen8566 He is a Canadian clinical psychologist and he's become very popular over the last few years. In my personal experience he's helped me beyond measure with my existential depression and anxiety.
I'm sorry MadCat Lady, but those two are in totally different leagues. Jordan Peterson is lost, while Carl Jung is found. My opinion. But I am the prophesied return of the biblical prophet Elijah.
Jung was very good. And if you want to surpass even Jung, "A Course in Miracles" is the ultimate psychology curriculum, from The Source Itself.
I would have answered this question the exact same way that Jung did. And as I say, I am the prophesied return of the biblical prophet Elijah. Here is what I mean when I say "I don't have to believe, I know." And this may be precisely what Jung meant. But I am a man of fewer words, and am very concise. And here is why I say that "I know":
I know that there is an absolute Reality that one can call "GOD," which is in total control of absolutely everything because it IS absolutely everything. GOD is the Mind that is ALL. And I know this because I have found this Truth through Reason and Revelation, such that I cannot possibly believe otherwise.
Did you make the video? 😅
Successfully avoids answering the question, while appearing to completely answer the question.
He understood the mission..my man, CGJ.
There is no use in directly answering a question that horribly distorts the one who answers. You might as well ask someone if they have hope.
Still have no idea what he meant...
I think he means that any great force out of his control he calls "God". He doesn't mean that he had met God or has seen evidence of an actual being, but in his life, what drives fate and what changes his life he calls God
This stuff confuses me
You should read his autobiography
I first seen Carl Jung in the 1980's he can be hard to grasp , i think i grasped it in the end , my mind went out the box so to speak when i was suffering depression , and i sort of knew he was a man of great insight , he had what i refer to is eternal knowledge , it's always worth studying his knowledge , its still relevant today .

"We" are all prisoners born of "God's" conception, therefore "God" has yet to be born.
Try and think of what happens in the split-second an egg becomes fertilized., now imagine on a god-scale from within higher intra-dimensional levels that "we", along with nature/physical reality, are the byproduct of that process unfolding.
So there's no reason whatsoever to fear or worship., THAT which "we" all are already a part of.
The Shiva Linga is the precursor of the Holy Trinity in describing what is taking place across intra-dimensional levels of existence of a singular being's metamorphosis into..., a God?
Just as the physical universes experience multiple crunches and expansions like a heartbeat., this being "we" are all part of, will eventually reach a stage in its progress where it will withdraw into itself all of the knowledge or data acquired through experiences from those separate individual consciousnesses whose Souls were able to make it through and beyond the life stages of Mineral, Vegetable and Animal.
That's all "we" are., packets of information whose ego-identity becomes sacrificed upon subsumption into the One.
Do any of you know what you're really asking for in seeking ultimate liberation?
If you enjoy inhabiting a human or any other form capable of expressing your individual character and Will., you're not ready for mergence.
With that said., Who are my parents?
Well this was mind-fuckingly elucidating. Thank you for the enlightening perspective! :)

Jesus Christ is the way, the truth, and the life and no one can come to the Father except through Him. John14:6 / For God so loved the world that He gave his one and only Son that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16
A good philosopher would first ask 'what do you mean by 'god?''.
thats why he wasnt a philosopher.
Thanks for putting this out there man. But some constructive criticism: your voice is extra monotone and the video effects were a bit annoying and took away from the context.
Carl like jorden peterson ,
Never assumes one thing,
These minds are gifted for you and me to express the genuine amidst the delution..
God is a substitute for the unconditional love not given by the majority of parents.
God IS. There is no love without hate. There is no good without evil. There is no life without death. To BE, all is needed.
