Anybody out there studying when you don't have to, the genuine, curious people, I salute you. I took every free physics class I could find, I follow the study of the ancient stories, I'm romantic about life and I'm happy to have found this podcast.
I have this little theory I've been thinking about lately in regards to synchronicity. I think that the emotions you feel, literally affect the world around you. If a person is in a positive state of mind, you'll have better luck. New paths open up. Other people will immediately pick up on this, and feel at ease around you. The opposite happens in a negative state of mind. I've had doors open, only to shut immediately when I experience a bout of pessimism and depression. Basically, so long as you have faith that things will turn out okay, they generally will. If you don't, then you won't get anywhere in life. And the universe will be screaming at you from every angle for you to get your act together.
"going through this underworld journey" Inanna, Ishtar, Barbie...welcome to Venus retrograde✨🙏✨ This conversation is phenomenal. Totally agree about not leaving the mystery a mystery, seeking knowledge, seeking truth, seeking the answers, looking for God under every stone on the path.
Thank you so much for this podcast, i just stumbled across Third Eye Drops. I feel that devouring despair and have been feeling lost this week i really needed to hear this.
I’m so giddy to have discovered this channel. So much of my work over the last 17 years has been focused on Jung’s and Campbell’s work. It’s why I transitioned from studying theology, hermeneutics, textual criticism, etc., to ANE religions and comparative religion (and incorporated philosophy and psychology). At the core, it was my passion for studying myth-making and meaning-making through a Perennialist lens, which Huxley beautifully illuminates in his writings. The academic exercise and exploration affords one a wealth of knowledge, but as I came to discover, it didn’t provide the wisdom until many years later when I would essentially return “home” to previous studies and teachings having embarked on ancestral / wisdom traditions and initiatory practices that served to unfurl and expand the tapestry and the map by which I synthesized the information I accumulated overtime. But instead of approaching it from the perspective of linking data points and information chains, it was bubbling up and unraveling very ancient wisdom that I carried within, that the likes of Jung, Campbell and Huxley have urged seekers and explorers of the psyche to peel back, excavate, dive into, confront, absorb, and integrate these long forgotten parts. They provided the map and model Western explorers desperately needed. The synchronicities that emerge from that wellspring of wisdom, through one’s own phenomenological experience, becomes a special kind of magick.
My deepest feelings of transpersonal magic and awe have come from sitting quietly and holding the idea that anything at all exists. It was something which came naturally to me early in life and it never disappoints. Nice to hear you two talking about similar experiences.
Discovered your special channel only recently. Having read The Republic in 2017 when i had kidney cancer, a 1st class hons degree in Psychology from 2002 and only really properly deeply discovering Carl Jung in about 2019, I have been seeking bringing many of these threads together which you always do so beautifully. Your vulnerability and humility shine through my friend. Thank you for what you are doing. Thanks. 🦁
Speaking on the loss of understanding in mystery technologies, we've lost the framework of reality that we used to have the enabled the understanding. We've lost the collective framework of mental and spiritual reality. And We've gone so far from it that it's like someone who was born blind comprehending sight or deaf hearing sound. The same way we cant comprehend how animals "see" with scent or with echolocation. I think the technology of the last 200 years is the driving force of our disconnection
The idea of a MultiGenerational Temple or Project is pure Alchemical Gold. Many of us are familiar with the idea of a personal legacy. But how many imagine a kind of philosophy or way of life that is consciously added to like a long story. We are this Story of our Ancestors as DNA expression in amy case. I also think of Marvel/DCComics from early in this Century added to and expanded into multiple creative projects. This iscwhat I'm doing without having known it with my own artvand graphic novel idea. It also helps me to be ok with not finishing it in my life time, but keeping it open ended . . . .
Indeed. Being Mexican the annoyance I feel when people discuss aliens being the architects of Meso american structures! To give it up to fantastical being instead of our own ancestors is heart breaking
@@herrweiss2580 because that takes away from the intelligence and ingenuity of a people. No problem if your not descended from them but definitely an issue if you are.
From listening to this episode I’ve come to the realization that Plato’s Republic is more than likely a description of the Magnum Opus (Great Work) that the Alchemists were seeking. I say this because when Eric was talking about how “Good Explanations” give you an Alchemical Power to transform your reality into what you want it to be, I realized that this was/is the same or at least a similar power that the alchemists were seeking on their spiritual quest for the “Philosopher’s Stone” which can transform your lead (what you don’t want such as depression or things that make life feel heavy and negative) into Alchemical Gold (Things and Energies in your Life that Resonate with your Authentic Self!) One of the processes of Alchemy is called “Multiplication” in which the alchemical powder (which is of the same substance as the philosophers stone which we can also think of as good explanations) is multiplied in virtue, quantity, and potency. In fact “Multiplication” is the stage that crystallizes the philosophers stone which we can imagine as a bundle of many many Good Explanations threads that allow us to live in a Flow State where we operate in the most Ideal Way in All Areas of our Lives! The Magnum Opus, The Republic, Justice! The Alchemists also talked about the Harmonious Unification of Salt, Sulfur, and Mercury (The 3 main energies of the Psyche) which corresponds to Eros, Thumos, and Logos Respectively. In Chinese Medicine this Trinity equates to Jing, Chi/Qi, and Shen and correspond to the Lower (Sacral) Middle (Heart) and Upper (Third Eye) Chakras respectively. In my own Trinity I like to call this Creative Power, Love, and Wisdom. The Wisdom Guides the Love and Creative Power, the Love Channels the Creative Power and Wisdom, and the Creative Power Expands the Potency of the Wisdom and the Love. Discovering and Integrating more and more good explanations (Creating the Powder of the Philosopher’s Stone and Crystallizing it to make it bigger and bigger) allows us to make our ariadne's thread thicker and thicker as well I believe which is why we will be able to experience the Ideal Flow State of the Good, the True, and the Beautiful in All Areas of our Lives which is again, the Magnum Opus, Justice, and the Republic. Absolutely loved this episode! I felt a past life feeling of remembrance of being in one or several of the Mystery Schools that I’ve been in. I think y’all probably were there with me haha. I’m going to have to listen to it at least a couple more times. There’s so much useful information!
I like where you’re going . Also three major steps to the alchemical transformation - black, white, red. Historically speaking, “alchemy” doesn’t come on to the scene for a long time after Plato (that we know of), but I think the underlying archetype may be related. 🙏
@@THIRDEYEDROPS fun fact: lots of the information about alchemy was sourced from greek texts along with the elusive Egyptian Hermes Trismegistus whom I’m pretty sure the Ancient Greeks like Plato were aware of. Also, I see the Alchemical Stages/Milestones as 4 and not 3: Nigredo, Albedo, Citrinatas, and Rubedo. If you closely study the Joseph Cambell’s version of the Hero’s Journey, and compare it to Alchemical Stages and processes, you will more than likely be able to see how the Hero begins in the Nigredo Stage through the Alchemical process of Calcination and ends (sometimes, but not always, depending on the story) in the Rubedo Stage. At the end of the day all stories contain Alchemical processes and in fact are alchemical processes that increase or decrease the vibrational frequency/consciousness of the hero or material that is being worked with. Stories are also powerful at reprogramming the subconscious mind because the programming language or code of the subconscious mind is and has always been stories and symbols 👁️🌈☀️💎🌳🦋
The hologram analogy is great. I've been thinking of it in terms of fractals; Reality has a fractal nature. This means we can also find ourselves in a coherent reality that seems opposed to someone else's coherent reality. Different facets of the fractals, manifesting at different scales.
The fact the speakers realise the mind is a beautiful trickster, a creator And the ultimate conduit once cleansed, How can one know anything that is living? Therefore know thyself is a movement of introspection and contemplation Thanx from a fellow flame
When thinking about the concept of Daimon, one important piece of art that comes to mind is a book of Herman Hesse - Demian. Before writing that book Hesse had a big personal crisis and was also a direct pacient of Carl Jung at that time. The story of the book describes the growth, development and individuation of the main character Emil Sinclair who was profoundly influenced by a mysterious, otherwordly school mate named Demian. Demian appeared in Sinclairs life later after they were no longer school mates at wildly synchronistic moments, leading him deeper and deeper into understanding the world and his place in it. And Sinclair always felt like Demians soul was somehow always present with him even after they parted their ways. Listening to this podcast made the connection between "Daimon" and "Demian" click for me. Thank you!
@@THIRDEYEDROPSthis book also touches on Abraxis; good read as is any other hermann hesse book I’ve read (siddhartha, steppenwolf, narcissus and goldmund- which coincidently I encountered a synchronicity w/yesterday) great author and jungian friend
don't you think cathedrals took generations to build because they didn't have our same building tech? lol im just being a smart ass love the channel man. so grateful for all the jung and plato content, some of the best on RU-vid
I just wanted to express appreciation for the fact that you addressed spiritual psychosis in this episode. It’s something that has deeply affected my life and an aspect of spiritual culture that is so common and yet almost completely ignored. We have to start bridging the conversations we have about spirituality with the ones we have about mental illness, and it means a lot to me when I see this happening. Spirituality is worth nothing if it’s not grounded.
Wow, he is so right when he said our society is so wounded that we are needing intervention from an extraterrestrial species. And in order to heal society we need to all be working on a multi-generation project such as a temple or some such place of worship. So very true. 👍🙏👽🛸🧘♂️🕊🕉☯️✝️
IVE BEEN SAYING THIS OVER AND OVER ABOUT THE HIGHER SELF BEING INSIDE AND OUT OF YOU AT THE SAME TIME. I FOUND IT. It is what leads you to synchronicity and speaks to you through intuition. It loves you a lot. And has always been with you And i interact with it. As directly as possible I think. DMT can take you to the same space that it lives in. Inside of you but separate from the body
I even have a video of me talking to it in a couple Dmt trips. I always record myself so I can watch it back later and try to bring more of the experience back in my memory. I have found it in more than one place but the only place I can interact with it directly is with DMT. I knew what it was when I saw it. It doesn’t have a solid form but you will recognize it. It lives through you and also outside of you. It’s a bit obsessed with you tbh. It’s also so fucking lovely and honestly hilarious in how it shows up sometimes. It seemed shocked that I could see it and understood what it was. But it asked “is being aware of me going to cause a problem for you?” because I have a fear of sounding crazy if I talk about it and also the stigma of psychedelics in general. But I felt that it guided me to finding the words to put the pieces together. Then also guided me to DMT hoping I’d figure it out. Now I’m curious, I’ll have to look into that word “Daimon” because I’ve just been calling it my soul
Art is the unity between Mind & Physics, anything created artfully bridges the gap, Art & creative output is the manifestation of Mind into form/physics.
Yes I love the way I he told you not to say we , I don't ask those questions anymore cos I've got my truth and am fucking satisfied .But I keep listening to Important people like you to always keep reminding me of my HIGHER AUTHORITY
The questions that you guys ask and the responses are genuinely, genuine. I love the idea of doing experiments on yourself. As always another great dialogue.❤
14:10 Amen! That's essentially the conclusion I came to after a number of intense synchronicities. The meaning IS that we're having a direct experience of the transcendent, and more specifically, our relationship to it.
Yes, we are building a multigenerational temple in SCIENCE. The ideas you are talking about and much of the modern parlance and popularity of them come from an obscure researcher and writer I know who left graduate school in evolutionary psychology and behavioral neuroscience 20 years ago to write a book instead of a dissertation because he disagreed with basically everyone in the current paradigm. He researched synchronicity for a decade before that and integrated it into a theory based on the psychological features of the brain and the physical features of the world in reference to symbols and human perception of meaning. Also he met and became friends with Jordan Peterson back then before Dr Peterson was even famous. He cites his “maps of meaning”. I heard Jordan using his examples in his lectures online. The Interstellar movie was basically a story version of the basic idea. Anyway, it’s a hard slog through dense language but it’s absolutely amazing and I am shocked people are running around listening to these ideas piecemeal in Donald Hoffman and Bernardo Kastrup and etc etc and there it all is in that book 20 years ago which is not only relevant today, but STILL is way ahead of the times. It’s like reading and oracle. ❤ Just wanted to drop that info. Thank you so much for this video. 👍🏻 “The Textbook of the Universe: The Genetic Ascent to God” by Steven E Romer. It might take some looking… but you find this book, you will see literally everything in a new light. I am flabbergasted every time I see a video on synchronicity which doesn’t include or cite that book! 😮 Romer talks about the multigenerational project stuff in his book and says that now our cathedral is science -but in the Tielhard de Chardin sense. Wanted to add that, because it is a main focus of why I wanted to comment. Thanks 😊
Holy moly, what a conversation! I would love to do 🍄 with these guys, or at the very least interview them both. Ive got so many rabbit holes to go down from this 2 hours, cant wait to take the journey.
Thank you; I love you. I was literally saying this minutes before this part of the pod! 🌬️🤣🌹 but not to get myself out of hell, just to bask in the awe and wonder 🙃

47:23 I’ve had a very Gnostic feeling lately, that intelligence is mutated by the monad in life to end the suffering of it one of many ways. I pray the future is a good way!
Using Jungian active imagination exercises make massive differences when the manufactured environment offers, with a deceptive smirk, to open the door to madness. As per usual the right cool cast arrives at the right time.
I've heard a lot of people say we choose to come here and suffer, everything is one so everything is perfect, and to not spend sp much time frying to figure this whole thing out. Just like the guest i couldn't disagree more. If you don't want fine, but I'm pretty sure there's way more to all this than we see and I also think we exist before coming here, but since I have no memory of it i can't say for sure and i want to say for sure. I think that's the most important thing and it should take precedent over all else. "You're just here to learn it's ok. You need to know." I don't nuy that for one and for two if that's true give me back my memory and I'll continue to learn. If it's wrong than I'll be wrong, but something wants me to forget who i am and i don't like it.
I feel like the lack of a cathedral consciousness is directly contributing to all of the issues we currently see around us. Other cultures might describe it as thinking 7 generations into the past and 7 generations into the future.
You have rediscovered St. Anselm's ontological argument for God at 1.00.29.. those are ever the breaks! And yes, even shamanically you come upon similar conclusions.
@@THIRDEYEDROPS Freggin' Awesome! You fellas have extrapolated on mine own studies in real time. Allow me to interject the Geometrical/Mandala aspect of Plato's most famous contributions: Platonic Solids. Draw a circle with a compass, and use a ruler to divide 24 equal sections, as 24 hours in a day and 24 Letters in Greek isopsephy, 24 Elders of spiritual ascendency. Calculate how many ways you can Escape that Labyrinth both Lyrically, Geometrically, and Musically. And show me what you find relating to Tesla, Pythagoras and 8Trigrams. Peace be with you. Thank you. *Apparently there are 27 isopsephy digits. 2+4=6, 8+8+8=24 - 2+7=9, 9+9+9=27 I imagine the key here is still the power numbers 3,6,9 dividing 147=3 and 258=6 as 369=9. Lemme know!
A soul yearning ache to learn physics. 🫶🏻 Finally found a podcast where people seem to ask the same questions I’ve been asking my whole life. Great work guys!
Lots could comment but for a giant building/structure made easier… build it underwater where the area will eventually be dry in the future or alter/drain the area after to make them wonder more or show you can work through that. Or are aware time will make it available some day.
I have things that happen that I cannot find a concrete explanation. I believe what I have are called synchronicities but on steroids. Without giving an example (I have many) basically I get an intuition and then mundane things happen in my life just prior to the intuition coming to reality but these mundane things line up with the intuition. I believe what’s happening to me is how you explained the Carl Jung peyote analogy and my higher self & tapping into space time, geometry & reincarnation. I call it magic.
