“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
Without self knowledge, without understanding the working and functions of his machine, man cannot be free, he cannot govern himself and he will always remain a slave. With thorns in the inner world there will always be roses in the outer world, in law-able compensation. Essence is the truth in man; personality is the false. G.I. Gurdjieff
1 year ago your comment was written! Were we still living under the HELL of the PURE EVIL SCAM/ EVIL PLAN that was Convid 19 then!!? Was the BIO WEAPON (Vaccine) being pushed into Humanity then!!? Oh yes, WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE!!
This is the book for those interested in and courageous enough to take a peak at the unconscious. I have read it cover-to-cover multiple times and enjoy listening to this narration. Serves as a good introduction to Jung. My order of reading Jung: Man and His Symbols; Memories, Dreams Reflections (pseudo autobiography), The Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious (CW Vol 9, partA), Modern Man in search of a Soul. I am just beginning to form the contours of understanding the totality of the psyche. Marvelous journey.
@@SalmanKhan-rz3mc You dream. You just don't recall your dreams. Everyone dreams.The trick is to still your mind in the twilight of the morning and have a pen and paper by your bedside. good luck on your journey!
it's one thing to be intelligent, but a whole other thing to be enlightened. this is perhaps the most critical lesson to be learned from Jung--he who mastered and modeled both.
Not to minimize Jung’s accomplishment but I find it most compelling to imagine he’s simply a smart man who’s become very well-studied about symbolism as opposed to being some enlightened person. His work is built upon his studies of other people’s work and he’s smart enough to recognize that every ounce of his wisdom was brutally earned via years of study (his own and others) combined with years of trial and error. His application of his expertise in symbolism to the field of psychology was absolutely innovative and useful but his advice to those looking to follow him was ultimately to study the fields he studied and humble themselves enough to grow. Even this advice isn’t originated by Jung; it’s ancient wisdom Jung discovered within one field of study and applied to another.
@@dancegod1691 i agree with you. Most western philosophy and psychiatry feels like rehashed yogic and vedic exercises which originated 15000 years ago. I feel like they rediscovered things and made them accessible to westerners and the modern man which is admirable in itself
@@dancegod1691 It might seem like that. But he extended it and made an interface that was non-religious and not sexual. Furthermore he emphasized the symbols and reading them as objective information. Whereas the Buddha or others said “illusion” or “idols”, Jung said there was something to learn from “symbolic” reality. So it’s much more clear, and gives us a stairway where others in earlier times saw a wall or something else. Let’s not forget about “Synchronicity” perhaps his greatest work-where he recognized and “a-causal connecting principle” which led to a new experimental method to show the creative mind at work symbolically in the material world in the 2003 work “The Textbook of the Universe: The Genetic Ascent to God”. Without Jung, we probably never would have had people paying attention to these synchronicity “subconscious effects” in reality. In that book, we see factual evidence for what a deity might actually be. The methodology introduced at the University of Arizona conferences on the science of consciousness was adopted by Gary Schwartz as well in his book on just that methodology titled “Supersynchronicity” which he called the most unlikely of these ranked rare events quantified by how many separate factors involved (in the case of a “Supersynchronicity”, 5). These synchronicity ideas pretty much are the path to the unlocking of fully half the universe of knowledge previously invisible or only seen “through a glass darkly” in the sense that he made a modern more objective edifice for things never intended to connect with anything like science in the past. Personally I think his ideas could be conceived as an alchemy of what would become the “science of god-speech” where science and religion come together talked about in the “Textbook of the Universe…” book. Whereas before we saw gods and spirits at work, or inscrutable illusion, Jung said we should see these things as symbols of mind at work individually and collectively and read them. He didn’t get it right of course. Democritus spoke of atoms, never electrons or a Higgs Boson. Never did the math… Gary Schwartz and Steven Romer were the first ones to actually do that seriously only in the first decade of the 2000’s. He also came up with the concept of a “collective unconscious” and “archetypes” which were forays into actually organizing the wisdom and knowledge of previous eras which inspired so many-like Joseph Campbell to whom can be attributed the ideas which inspired George Lucas and the Star Wars epic mythology. Then there is Jordan Peterson’s “Maps of Meaning” completely inspired by and organized under Jungian Auspices and to this day is still on at least my top 10 books of all time. The relevance and influence of his ideas is very extensive. In order to make a cyclotron, the future needed a stepping stones like Neil’s Bohr, or Dirac, or Schrodinger. Not just Democritus. The future will have technology based on Jung as an intermediary in combination with analog and digital technology in the same vein -unlocking the speech of the universe based on the grammar and vocabulary of science. Like a “SETI” program for what we previously called “gods” separated from us by time and dimensions, not outer space. Thanks 🙏🏻 🥰
This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my RU-vid channel 6 months ago about self development. Now I have 425 subs and > 100 hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessonsÀ we that I couldn’t have learned without getting started in the 1st place.
1:51:56 "I had always been impressed by the fact that there are a surprising number of individuals who never use their minds if they can avoid it, and an equal number who do use their minds but in an amazingly stupid way."
Jung's description of the analysis and dream interpretation process in which the doctor must strive as much to remain conscious of his own perspective and prejudices as that of the patient seems to me as a good approach to any situation in which one person is listening to another's problems and giving advice. This is so dense with knowledge!
I have read this marvellous book several times, but it is such a pleasure to sit back and listen, and every time, gain a deeper understanding of the symbolic language of the human psyche. Thank you so much for these readings.
The ultimate purpose of psychology as a field of study is to share psychological knowledge in understandable terms to the layman, to ordinary people who know little or even nothing about psychology. Thank you Psychology Library for having this substantial material on Carl Gustav Jung in the YT.
Doc Jung was one of the first treating doctors to give his patients readings from the I Ching, the Chinese Bible from the greatest Sages of Eastern culture which brings their voices to life in giving the enquirer advice on whatever problems they may be concerned about. There's more to this great healer than we may ever have the privilege of knowing!
"Go West, young man" is a phrase, the origin of which is often credited to the American author and newspaper editor Horace Greeley concerning America's expansion westward, related to the concept of Manifest Destiny. No one has yet proven who first used this phrase in print. Washington is not a place to live in ... IMHO it can be attributed to the modern era concerning the expanding 'mind merging with the heart' i.e. "go west JUNG man"
That last dream about the luminous ball struck a chord with me. Ever since I was 4, the only recurring dream I've had has been whenever I get the flu. I find myself in a cave-like room lighted dimly, like dusk on a fall evening, that seems to extend endlessly, yet feels immensely claustrophobic, as if I'm the only person in existence. The floor is littered with small pebbles, straw/grass, and sticks. There's a waterfall in what I understand to be like, the center, or focal point of the room, in which the water flows so smoothly, it appears to be still and makes no sound. I remember a synaesthetic sensation about seeing that image that I can't put into words. Kind of like when you open the faucet at just the right level to make that still-flow effect, and put your finger under it - but that sensation covering your whole being. I also felt a very heavy presence in the room that wasn't physical. Before the waterfall, I see several stone balls nestled in grooves that make a circular pattern on the floor, save for one, the biggest one, at the top of the formation (nearest the waterfall), which is sitting just outside of its corresponding groove. As I approach the stone, I notice an inscription below its groove in a language I can't read (I mean I couldn't read anyway, but the characters weren't even from the English Alphabet - I'd say they more resembled something like Cuneiform/Armenian in retrospect), but I get the intuition that it's a warning not to fix the formation. I do so anyway, and immediately a whirlwind overtakes me. All of the sticks, pebbles, and straw are taken up too, speeding past me faster and faster. I now see myself from the third person as this debris quickly disintegrates my body until there isn't anything left. As I got older, the dream got a little more gory, but the overall structure was always the same. I never had the dream again after I was around 13 or 14, so about 10 years ago. Up till then, I had it every time I got the flu, which was maybe(?) 4-5 times.
Despite knowing that fixing the formation will result in disaster you continue on anyways. Your subconscious always knows when you are doing something you ought not to do. And it always tells you, even if it’s not in a language you can understand. Even still the message always comes through, and still you go through with the actions that will ultimately lead to disaster and you are left knowing that this might have been avoided. I have no idea if this has any particular relevance to your life, as it’s a rather broad lesson, but that’s my vanilla interpretation.
This is amazing. I get the feeling of a feverish child . Somehow you've written in your own personal language of dreams ( the mix of symbols, sensations, images and the vertigo of observing the self). I think this is the actual attack of your body by the flu virus, of your inner ,cool, peaceful cave of self caught in an invading storm. A child's vulnerable feeling of losing one's "normal" self to swirling illness. Your entire recounting is filled with the language of dreams. Amazing! Forgive me for speculating, your dream seems so literal. Thank you.
How i found the light and god in suffering and get clean vision obout myself. If the world had misinterpret you and your actions than you dont have to fight for justice its the way of honest conversations with your subconscious to sunlight your true feelings and define your future goals that will bring the happiness in your life
I agree wholeheartedly. I used to wonder how someone, a Daoist for example, could sit on a mountain for months doing nothing but meditating and thinking and such. Now I know.
Man can be made whole by not thinking, that he isn't. Its wrote this way because first it brings you to man can be made while which is true. Secondly the solution by not thinking, if you end there that would be a complete thought but, thirdly you need to complete the sentence yet being a double negative makes you think then puts more emphasis on "not thinking".
Dreams say everything .Sleeping is the edge where we can use our quantum senses to play with the brain function ability where it prompts us how to be a physical and meantime how our quantum brain function as Energy 🙏🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
To all those who are causing suffering in this world, directly or indirectly: Heed your dreams at night, those nightmares that you most assuredly are having are imploring you to change -before it’s too late... The quality of our dreams is both a reflection of our thoughts and actions as well as a general foreshadowing of the fate of our souls in the next life...A nightly, temporary karma that beckons us to change - for the good - so as to avoid a more permanent karma. 👁🔥👁...(I do not believe in a fiery hell, per se, unless fire happened to be one of the weapons one used to cause suffering, then the pain that fire caused will inevitably follow you into the afterlife). A karma that is inflicted not by this or that “religion”, but instead by our inner witness -who sits at the matrix of consciousness, and experiences firsthand all of our deeds- after this body is shed... Terrible people consequently have terrible nightmares. It’s an intrinsic law of human nature that’s deniable, yet self-evident. Occasionally they’ll have a pleasant dream that will try and prod them towards loving kindness, just as good people will occasionally have nightmares for various other reasons(from PTSD to being on a pharmaceutical that isn’t good for us to eating too much before sleep, etc). But ultimately, the overall quality of our dreams that inevitably accrues over our lifetimes directly correlates with the type of person we are and our character as human beings, and thus portends our “fate” with regards to the afterlife. And once the terrible people of this world realize that those nightmares that they most assuredly are having not only reflect their actions in this life, but also the fate of their souls in the next, those terrible actions that are being mirrored back to them in their dreams -as nightmares- will become harder and harder to commit...Until then, good people will continue to suffer during the day, and terrible people will continue to suffer during the night. Beauty(🌷)+Complexity(🌎) =Intent(❤️) The Figure 8 Analogy: An analogy on life, death, the dream-state and the symbolism intertwined within the human experience. We human beings are not traveling in the abstract motion of a straight line towards death (for instance, the numerical straight line of say 1-89). Instead, we are moving in the motion of a figure 8. The Figure 8 is a natural repeating pattern that is divided into two halves and is thus the perfect symbol to represent the human life cycle and our two primary states of existence that we are continuously moving in and out of -the Awake state and the Dream state. When we awake from sleep we come full circle to when we fall back asleep (represented by the bottom half of the figure 8 )and when we go into the dream state we come full circle to when we awake from the dream state (represented by the top half of the figure 8 ). Upon death; the figure 8 of life untwines, but it’s not the body untwining from the mind that this analogy represents. It's two states of mind untwining to form a larger state of mind. (8-0) Because the awake state is really a state -of mind, with our body's physical reality "consciously" intertwined; and the dream-state is also a state of mind, with our body's physical reality "subconsciously" intertwined. Therefore; upon death, these two states of mind untwine to form a “larger” state of mind. A state that has all the potentialities of the dream world (flying, telepathy, psychokinesis, etc) combined with all the actualities of the awake world(nature, form, bonds, etc). This I refer to as the transitional analogy. While conceiving The Figure 8 Analogy, I realized life and death must be perceived -from one point of view- as seperate entities(the transitional analogy(8-0), but must also be perceived -from another point of view- as inseparable entities(the symbolic analogy👇), both of which are ultimately linked by the dream-state. The symbolic analogy consists of the untwined figure 8 of life/the 'circle of death’, if you will, which -abstractly- overlapps the ‘circle of life’/the Earth, with the overlappment representing the dream-state, like the common area in a venn diagram, and implies that the dream state is just as much a part of life as is of death ~by which semi-explains precognitive dreams, prodromal dreams, "visitations" by deceased relatives, etc; for the dream-state has a foothold in the afterlife, and is based on the premise that “while our body sleeps, our dream state symbolically represents the state that awaits upon our body's ultimate rest.” In other words, while we are lying down and sleeping/dreaming, this natural process symbolizes where we go when we're ultimately lying down/dead -to a place "like" our dream-state...A state "of mind” with our body's physical form+bonds eternally engrained and intertwined. 👁~8~👁
Dreams come in a certain way not to mislead us but to guide us their meaning is disguised for the simple fact that they come from another dimension and from the world of Gods ( thoughts ) our human brain doesn’t have the capacity to translate it properly therefore the meaning is often misunderstood and in codified. Remember the true meaning is always within the dream and often dreams are visions of the near possible futures depending on the choices and decisions that we will make so the path will also change. Dreams are very important it is the bridge between a higher dimension ( higher inner self ) and should always be analysed in detail.
Psychology ,metaphysics , dreams , the states of mind , how psyche energy brings information , where is the information ,what are symbols What all this mean and how to use in daily life all this feelings and senses and mind information how to understand and use it . How long we can ignore our sleep time brain state function ability ,we know nothing about it . This all must be start from the beginning of the educational system of our schools and higher educational system if we wand fundamentally change the world better place with our Thoughts that are so far from who we are and what could be this world about . Thank you Carl Jung to make Humans more educated and intelligent in Psyche Energy Quantum World .Thank you .🙏🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
Dreams are so interesting to bring messages and helping that’s one of the subconscious function help the owner to know and be conscious then to balance give time the owner will think what to do .....and you can interpret translate for this physical experience of the reality .How to connect understand, change that right when you are sleeping ,merge with the questioned information and transform it 🙏🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
Somraj Saha I don’t appreciate the accusations your response contained... also, even Carl Jung sees the value in data and proof, his book on Synchronicity is full of case studies and examples. First we have an intuition about something that isn’t off of logic or data, and then we study and research and try to find the data and proof. I will find someone else to discuss this with other than you. Thanks anyways!
Does no one else hear something lower being spoken in the background of this video? I can't understand what it's saying but I can definitely hear it. Maybe some sort of subliminal message? I'm super curious if anyone else can hear it... I just started noticing it about 45 mins in and now I can't unhear it.
Psychologists/Psychiatrists think that everyone is insane except them, especially if you do not believe their methods, doubly especially when they charge insane prices for their scheduled treatments. The couch cries ouch at the ole bill!
I had two amazing happy dreams.,I fell asleep to this. In one, I reconnected with an estranged friend.in another, someone took a chance on me and gave me a cool job. It was a cute Indian girl and we started flirting. Lots of odd moments, like all my dreams. But these differed in that it was wish fulfillment. I usually have stress dreams, not nightmares, just awkward twilight zone anxiety inducing dreams. What a profound feeling. I just want to call my ex friend and ask him if he remembers.
Your brain allows you to learn, recall, create, function and do what you will with that. Nothing more, don't get sucked in and confused just live, it won't last long , best to avoid time wasted....as this is.
Just pointing out that in this book they compared a man who made a choice to rock climb and by his own mistake died... to a woman who was afraid of predators in her dreams, then was raped, and somehow that was her fault... it wasnt her fault... I know this is outdated and all but it sneaks up on ya.
Jung compares the stories because the dreams both attempt to warn them that their behaviour both in rock climbing and in wandering the woods at night is not only risky, but attracts them precisely because of the risk. By omitting recognition of the woman’s autonomy in your critique, either subconsciously or consciously, you have demonstrated an astonishing lack of comprehension to the material.
if its all illusion .then what isn't . if all is possible .then what is impossible . all things are meaningless then what is meaningfull. when perfection of any sort dosen't exist then then what is perfect. what ever is at micro .is also macro .time vs timelessness. illusion of future and past that dosen't exist . when there are no answer .what is answer..?

Even though this view of the world is so dated, flawed, and wrong about so many things, it's still fun to poke through the detritus of these old pseudointellectual fads and relive what all the fuss was about. In some ways it's too bad that brain science killed philosophy and the philosophical aspect of psychology.
philosophy can't die, the love of wisdom is eternal as long as intelligent people exist. The "dated" view of the world is more representative of reality.
