Do you see the similarity between Parmenides' journey to the Goddess and Jung's journey through the mysterium? Comment your thoughts below... I appreciate the support!
Many many “Journeys to HELL” mythologically as you well know … WE are all on one … NOT as a punishment, but as some sort of invitation ??? Most refuse, but you are an exception !!! So young yet … pace yourSelf and do NOT listen to anybody or anything excepting NATURE, your own, and the manifest TRUTH surrounding us … PEACE to YOU … gotta have cost those Rose coloured Tears !!!
@@oneeyedjack-g8pI like this idea of many ways through and to the underworld not just one. Every path can look different Jung’s, Kingsley’s your and mine. Thank you for that insight.
I don’t know what kind of weatherman you were. But I can tell you as a philosophy teacher you are absolutely great ! Thank you, Joseph. Thousand thanks. At 65 you bring meaning in my life !
Pierre, it’s always a pleasure reading your comments. Without your ability to see or hear, I couldn’t do a thing. Your inner openness, your ability to see the esoteric, and your life experience all factor into it. I cannot tell you how many people tell me the material goes over their head and it’s too much. So, while I do appreciate this, I want to also remind you of you. ❤️🕊️ Sending all the best!
Beautifully articulated. A friend recently introduced me to Peter Kingsley. I watched an interview with Kingsley on RUclips, and felt he was a bit too academic. But this presentation was much more dynamic and engaging. The quotes given from "Reality" and "Catafalque" have piqued my interest in reading Kingsley. Thank you so much for the thought and care put into this video.
Marvelous, thank you. Regarding further understanding of Fragment 17 at 1:08-Left is feminine. Right is masculine. Both the ida as considered in acupuncture and in kundalini work are feminine. The pingala and the yang, masculine. This is with reference to the traditional feminine and masculine qualities, not genders. When meditating or interpreting dreams, consider carefully left-right movements or placements. As, for example, a woman facing you, her left is to your right. In imagery, even great paintings may be so interpreted, the artist’s subconscious so placing elements of the painting. As you gaze at the image-painting, imaginal image, dream remembered, or vision presenting-consider the lefts and the rights. What you see straight ahead is the here and now. What’s on the left or coming from the left is the past. What’s on the right or going to the right is the future. So in a dream if your Self is telling you that your Shadow work is not quite complete, the dream you or archetype of you will be moving to the left-perhaps, for example, reaching to the left in a closet, searching for something. If the action is to your right as you gaze, your Self is trying to tell you something about the future or a course of action that would benefit you if only you would take it. And yes, your left-right as you gaze is the opposite of a dream figure gazing at you. But, nonetheless, decades of dream and imagery interpretation have led me to believe that even dreaming, Self is self-centered because your left as you gaze does indeed represent your past, while the right is your future. In sheer numbers I’d say most dreams have action to the left. When Shadow work is well advanced, or dream-you wants you to focus on the present, then you’re looking straight ahead. When an image comes from the right as it pops into your mind, consider the possibility you’re seeing some future. That might be a precognition or simply a future possibility your Self is offering you. A recent dream: Straight ahead of me is a rectangular window with one clear pane of glass. The framing all around is broad and painted brilliant white. As I gaze I notice that the vertical panel to my left is marred, a small, lowermost portion of it brown, paint peeled, showing the wood beneath, the lowest part even looking water rotted. While in the dream as I examine the left side, I wonder if I should replace the whole board. Then I consider that as in reality, the marred part might be chiseled out and replaced, no need to replace the entire vertical board. The dream ends. Interpretation: Gazing out a widow commonly is picturing your looking from one side to the other side. If you’re seeing a dead loved one through the window, you’re “seeing the Other Side.” If the imagery and action suggest it, you’re “seeing the other side” of some matter. If the glass is cloudy, you’re not seeing something that is right in front of your eyes. In my dream I interpret the flawed left side to mean that something from my past, like some understanding or idea, some matter concerning emotion (water) is not solid or whole and pristine. It must be cut out or replaced. Then the entire framework will be strong, a solid frame through which to see. Yeah. Doing this work for 50+ years and I’m still rotten. Sigh. More chiseling. Blessings all.
I may not be finished this yet, but I'm already amazed at both your content and video quality. It's a package rare to find in this "spiritual" space on RUclips. I feel your animations/clips expand what you're speaking just as any artwork expands inner feelings/emotions. Love it!!
I've been following your content for a few months now and this is one of your best productions. Sadly I have no one yet in my circle who seems to have any interest in these topics, so I can't engage in discussions about Jung, individuation, Nietzsche, or anything of true psychological or philosophical value... ... especially my Christian friends, good Lord, ha ha!
You don't have to engage anyone, especially the Christians, for they will say you are an "anti-Christ". Even Jesus's teachings have so far been taken literally, missing its meaning and form.
Always appreciate your comments. This video was a bit different than my typical but I enjoyed putting it together. It’s so much valuable information! And I love sharing it with fellow seekers and seers such as you. Sending my love brother ❤️🙏
Self sacrifice is needed to uncover, discover and discard that which blocks me from God consciousness. The good news we carry is the way we stay unblocked. Thank you for anchoring me to ancient initiation philosophy. Jung describes psychic change on pg. 27 of AA's big book. You rounded the circle for me. Body, mind and Spirit. 📘🙏❤️🔥
Yes, I remember commenting back to you a few months back. Beautiful to see the work you’ve come to since your first comment. That purification removes the veil. Looking forward to hearing from you in the future. Blessings 🙏
Masterpiece of a video. But the description of the poem fits the Temple of the Goddess Demeters in Eleusis, more than Apollo. And the way to which it describes describes the pilgrimage from Athens to Eleusis. Even the chasm to which he describes being caused by the opening of the doors to the temple are there to be seen. Marvel my friends.
Well, I'd like to say something profound, but that intention is surely EGO driven vanity. Strip that away, and what's left is a sort of LOVE and understanding ... BLESS U !
Parmenides's journey has parallels in a lot of stories throughout history and different mythic/religious traditions. it's a pretty distinct mystical theme. i find it fascinating the similarities in dreams and visions certain "big people" throughout history are reported to have experienced. the links are there, tied together by the stories we tell each other.
The best way to TRULY understand Jung - it's to read the books of Peter Kingsley. Interesting coincidence is that Kingsley did not just wrote about Jung, but he also wrote books about about Parmenides, Empedocles, Pythagoras.
So much love for making this masterpiece. World changing information. To think, only now 2500 years later are we on the precipice of science understanding what the hell parmenides was really saying! Check out Nassim Haramein’s physics work on how the ONE is expressing itself mathematically
Well since you understand it why dont you make a video explaining it? Just reading jibberish does no one good. The speaker doesn't explain it because he can't. And yet you see all this high praise. For what: the ability to read? Explain it then since the reader can't.
Your work is some of the deepest exploration of western enlightenment tradition. I truly appreciate and see how much work, research and understanding you sink into every video. Thank you. I read the Reality and Catafalque only once yet. Very interested in practices incubation and "common sense" meditation Peter Kingsley touches upon. There is no access I found to any of it in "real life". Were you able to?
I see it as an individual effort…initiation…to develop within oneself. There is no “way” to this kind of “meditation “… it is truly thingless. So, practicalities should be impossible to find in this world, because it is of ‘another’ (inner) world. Appreciate your kind gesture as well. Every little bit helps 🙏🕊️
Stunning, thank you for your good work. Have you heard of Jung's architype of wholeness? Its about the squared circle and its symbolism is found everywhere..
The all is in the one. Is initiation for everyone? This is the question haunting me since reading Kingsley’s autobiographical Book of Life in which he details his “dying before death.” How much is demanded of the individual before the veil is rent and the truly real can be experienced? Kingsley seems to answer “everything and even that is not enough.” So where does that leave us? Are all spiritual paths delusion, even Hermetic magic or Gnosticism? I hope not. And what is the place in this of entheogens? Anyone?
It's astonishing that Parmenides is considered the founder of Ontology (the study of the nature of being), and modern philosophy STILL hasn't reached the level of understanding he attained. 1) Existence MUST be eternal, for nothing can emerge from nothing, as it would have no means to. 2) Everything that happens MUST happen an infinite number of times, for anything that can happen if given enough time WILL happen, and as that time is infinite, it MUST happen an infinite number of times. How much grief can be relieved when you know with certainty that you and your loved ones who have passed on, and your moments with them, are in truth permanent features of an eternal existence?
Help me please. My life changed since I read Reality by Kingsley. I can't say if it's for the better. I always imagined that in my search for truth, once I find it, it will devastate me. It kinda has, Parmenides' teaching just intuitively makes sense but it's scary. What do I do, if there's nowhere to go because everything is already here now. If there's no transcendental reality to get away to, a goal so to say. Then what's the point? I have since then learned to appreciate the moment like never before but is that it? Like Peggy Lee's song "is that all there is?" I realize that I already answered my question just by asking it. All is. All. But it felt so hopelessly good in a sense to believe that there was somewhere seperate to go to. Idk man maybe I'm misunderstanding the whole thing, I hope so
All is good, but I don't understand the obsession with the word quantum. Is it connected with quant physics, or is it an entirely different concept just taking the word "quantum" ultimately losing the words meaning? In any case it must be explored in depth, from both standpoints, physical and metaphysical lest it falls to unchallenged scrutiny. Because without elaboration it falls with the same problem most people delving in these topics make via Apophenia. Such claims need empiric evidence, not detuctive, if they are to hold any meaning in the subject. Otherwise, very good work. There are similarities, but I think there are more connections with general cultural knowledge throughout the time not just between these individuals.
quantum is the smallest unit of measurement in physics. but i dont think it applies to metaphysics. leibniz came up with monad to describe units in metaphysics.
Don't be disheartened by the shallow mimicry of modern philosophy my friend! Some of us still see philosophy as an inquiry into nature, not only the nature of thought. Certainly not ideas others have spent a long time on. What is that suggesting about our view of past intellectuals? The age of illusion is coming to an end as divine bonds are forged in the cosmic realm, beyond the scope of our physical limitations. Not beyond the thought of truth seekers devoted to their quest into the essence. Without doing anything we are still something. What does that mean for the absolute nihilism of materialism? It makes materialism the veil, a curtain of fascination, distracting us from divine connections if we reach beyond the doctrines of skepticism. Seccades are a reflection of the brain unconsciously at work. A fast way to begin shaping these underlying patterns is to imagine a ball rolling slowly round each eye socket in a sideways figure 8, follow it with your eyes. Keep slowing the pace to ease the flickering of tensions. Practice it until it becomes your seccade pattern. Live your best life.
I wonder how all this jives with Christ? The teachings also state to pick up our cross and die daily… facing death itself in order to live… how does Peter Kingsley deal with Christianity? Does he speak of Christ descent into hades too?
Desire is just the instinct trying to get food The africa tribes dont desire they get meat and chill The koala doesnt have our "logic" so if its desire/instincts doesnt eat it by its rules of fufilling actions and visuals itll starve to death with its leaves next to it

Being that language is but patterns of sound used to convey concepts....then yes, clearly they were both attempting to describe the same experience.

Have you ever read book "Catafalque. Carl Jung and the End of Humanity" written by Peter Kingsley?
Yes...I see it in the sorceress in the Red Book fairytale - and in Phanes...or maybe Phanes and Abraxas together - channelling the love beyond...?
