    If I was rich and american I would study at CIIS. Seeing as I'm poor and norwegian I'm eternally grateful to have this great, profound, deep information available for free. These are the kinds of ideas that actually aid my philosophical and spiritual evolution. I just wish my university course in philosophy could be said to have the same effect.

      And if you were really rich, you could maybe help them purchase a campus not so near an airport.

    This is brutal. I deeply understand what he means. Richard brings elements within his speech that most scholars do not. It is something that structures his speech, something so solid and interesting. It is clear that he works "ahead". This lecture is not just about history, this is about nature and how things get organised in nature...sinchronizing the universe at once...Unique!!!

    Well....As Mediterrenean citizens we realise and verify every single day how far is the Anglosaxon world from the Mediterranean way of thinking (Im Spanish). Sometimes history is like something that scholars use as if they were the beggining of written history. You can always see this over and over in Hollywood films. In Gladiator, everything was so vague, and so Anglo...the paradox is that the main character was someone from Hispania.

    Rationality for Plato, Jung is associated with Wholeness. It might seem irrational for our current limited rationality. But see how Jung puts it all together so well. ~ 2:12:09 Poignant question by the woman in the audience. 👍

    Richard, as I fall into the definition of western, Do you think that I have more things in common with a Danish that with a Turkish? What is the purpose of the British Museum having all this exibists of Greek culture?

    Thanks very much for posting this lecture. It's been very helpful to watch it while reading the first section of Passion of the Western Mind. Will the rest of the series be added to RUclips? If not, are the other lectures available somewhere else?

    Synchronicity. Man. Humankind. The Jets streaking across the western consciousness. The Zeusean forces from above and Tarnas of the Mother Eath. Such a wild lecture with apocalypse coming that is being called down from the Sky. This is a Classic kind of magic of Tarnas from Esalen Institute and the Great Beyond. Veil of the Ancestral World of the Greek kind of Alexander the Great and Achilles stories of Warriors. The Western Passion for the warriors narrative. No King. No Magician. No Philosopher Scholar Author of Sacred Texts. No Lover. No Free Loving Woman-Man ManWoman kind of MultiGendered Natural Way of Life for Human Beings. This the best. Tarnas could go off on the most cosmic ride across history yet he reigns himself inn. Will Tarnas-like Jung-liberate his pen so his ink may flow freely openly and lovingly as an empathetic historian of the world with its Sky Earth Astrology. Go Tarnas go! SHOW US THE SYNCHRONICITY so we can make the most informed decisions.

      Tarnas is Transpersonal Psychology transforming an academic historical perspective. Notice how he allows the planes and sirens to speak for themselves. Aperspectival collaborative conscious engaged in pedagogy. Tarnas is after all the Teacher archetype come to life as 'the Western Way' of bringing out the conscious voice of others. Maximus.

    Minute 1:01:25. Comment--> in fact it is in Greece where the Greeks used the word God for the first time. But taking a close look we notice that "Deus" means "the shiny one", "shine". Before that everything wasn´t still constructed, I mean the concept of divinity, the concept of God.

  • @mariasaezbernabeu314
    @mariasaezbernabeu314 5 лет назад

    In fact 'άνθρωπος' is the ancient Greek word for 'human being', the word used for 'man' was 'ἀνδρός' (andros) (and all its declensions).

    • @mariasaezbernabeu314
      @mariasaezbernabeu314 5 лет назад

      Why should you make something 'more politically correct' for me'? xD Have you inferred by my comment that I'm some kind of mentally weak person? Are you just being patronizing?
      I don't even know if you've watched the video, but I guess you haven't, because you don't seem to understand my comment nor what it relates to.
      Fist of all, I wrote that because Richard Tarnas (about minute 11:40) talks about 'the patriarchal assumption' built into the use of the words 'άνθρωπος' and 'men' (treating them as synonyms) to signify the whole humanity, and says those are masculine-gender words. In my comment above I'm just saying that's not right, 'άνθρωπος' was the ancient Greek word for 'human being' in general and 'ἀνδρός' the word for male ones, as 'γυνή' for 'woman' ('androgen' comes from the fusion of those two last words), as in latin 'homine' meant 'human being' (even 'neighbor') and the exact word for male ones was 'vir' ('virility' and 'virtue' come from that root) and for woman, 'mulier'. So, in fact, I was pointing out the use of that word ('άνθρωπος') didn't have that marked male gender connotation (although 'ἀνδρός' did have it, it was the ancient Greek word for 'male human being' and you must have no idea about that language if you neglect that).
      Secondly, if you stop and read my fist comment well enough, you'll discover I say nothing about 'gender neutral', 'gender-fluid' or 'gender whatsoever'; I just pointed out the difference between two words that have been mistaken and mistified. So your response just makes no sense.
      Then, 'ἀνδρός' is an ancient Greek word, so it seems strange to me it started being 'gendered' about 1300 A.D., like 19 centuries after the language itself died, that's curious.
      And finally, I didn't know there 's more than one human 'specie' (biologically speaking), thanks FYI.

    Who is the guy reminding everyone that pre-Hellenic Goddes religion love was essential between humans and the Mother of all life? Well said. And the answer from the - otherwise brilliant - Richard Tarnas suggesting that there is no consensus between scholars on the subject is not quite correct. Only a blind, deaf and particularly silly scholar would deny what the forty thousand years old tradition spreading from Ireland to the Middle East and from Siberia to Iberia clearly demonstrates in thousands on pieces of art and daily object to anyone with eyes and heart, regardless of their education. The Goddes had many forms and some of them wrathful, but she was - literally - the embodiment of love and life. In a way that, abused for millennia, humanity simply has a hard time to imagine and absorb.

    • @ubergeraldine
      @ubergeraldine 9 лет назад

      +pythagorasnine If you're referring to "mother goddess" and "fertility" symbols, they're all wrong. Otherwise so called fertility symbols wold be accompanied by images of babies - which they are not. Fuck the goddess. She's a prat. The goddess symbols from the Maltese dreaming women, the Venus of Willendorf, Sedna etc are images of the galaxy which was visible in a very different way in antiquity. If you look at a radio image of the galaxy you will see the shape. Humans anthropormophised it. Kali and Titzimitl are emissions from the galactic centre or a very noxious phase of Venus in her arrival as a comet.
      I wanted to have respect for Tarnas but he's up his own ass.

    Western mind is not as heterogenous as it might be asumed by Tarnas. That is my view too.
