Wish you would upload videos more often
I can’t write and do video lectures at the same time and for a while now I’ve been choosing to write, but I’ll get back to video lectures eventually
I am so thankful for your uploads. I have bachelor's degree in philosophy and sociology. Now I am 40 and 3 years ago I started training in gestalt psychotherapy. I am also prosuing master's degree in psychology. I live in Bosnia and Herzegovina, by the way 🙂 Your work is precious to me.
Thank you and good luck
Having worked with Alzheimer’s patients, I agree with your comment re the culture. The exhaustion that these patients are capable of inflicting is now a feature of collective life too.
Interesting point
This was some profound and powerful stuff. Super timely for me. This is right where I'm at.
Very good, thanks
Thanks again for presenting, Don! It was so great to reconnect. You'll have to let us know if you plan on making a trip to Chicago in the future. - Ryan
Ryan, thank you. I will certainly do that. As I think I told you I used to go to Chicago just to go to the blues clubs and maybe I will do that again. In any case I will certainly let you know. All the best
As a psychologist, I thought this was wonderful. Thanks for generously sharing this.
Hank you.
Dr. Carveth,
This was outstanding! I deeply enjoyed it and found it profoundly useful. I hope I can interview you one day!
Thank you, I am open to that.
This was indeed incredibly valuable. It is important, I opine, to see that we access our conscience in varying degrees. Someone who is completely or almost completely disconnected from conscience--say the malignant narcicisst--exists on the opposite side of a spectrum compared to someone who fully or almost fully lives in and through his conscience--i.e. an enlightened being.
Somewhere along the line when we become deeply guided by conscience and the ego drives dissolves, the superego will inevitably begin to fall apart. To talk about modulation of the superego rather than its dissolution is limited, but perhaps understandable to some extent since very few are called to pursue the depts of inquiry required for enlightenment.
In my experience there is, furthermore, ultimately no real difference between the patterns of the superego and resistence against more primitive energies and impulses. As long as there is resistance in the body, and to some subtle extent there will always be, there will be fragments of the superego. The two are simply two sides of the same coin. And the coin is itself ultimately the effort to control, or if you like the illusion to control. At a certain stage and depth of development, however, the conscience takes over the movement of the soul and it gradually unwinds the ego knots that remain. Conscience is thus the immovable mover.
How closely we come to God is, ultimately, a matter of grace, not human aspirations, altough the latter are critical until they no longer are.
Thanks for the great overview and input!
Yes, I entirely agree
Thank you professor Carveth, I very much enjoyed this lecture. Listening to your intersection of Nietzsche, Freud and the Chicago school of sociology, I couldn't help but think of anti-Oedipus and its thesis: "Why do men fight for their servitude as if it were their freedom?" I would be interested to hear your take on D&G, thank you.
That’s a connection I confess I have never thought of, but I can see your point
My intuition is that violation of personal conscience will ultimately destroy a person from the inside out.
Yes
please more on this. as a young man interested in psychoanalysis and tapped out of academia this is mighty insightful. are you working on a book?
Books 2013, 2018 and new note in 2023
@@doncarveth looking forward to it! really appreciate ur takes on narcissism
Very timely. As a trainee psychotherapist I'm already finding myself arguing Freud's corner against this hydra of new puritanism.. I'm wondering whether we'll ever get back to sophisticated critique
We must not let them shut us down
@@doncarveth yes. By appealing to their consciences.. but where are they? 🤣
Dr. Carveth,
What is your email information so that I can reach out to you about an interview?
I'm curious about your TX outcomes with those business people who are/were your clientele who were not aware of rage from their "Id"? What would you here consider good TX outcomes for this "class" of clients?
Mixed results. Some folks are analyzable (by me), so I’m not.
Some not
@@doncarveth
Its been my understanding that contingency is built into the practice. I don't know how many practitioners would be truthful enough to acknowledge the part contingency plays in outcomes--especially the way universities push "tool kits"/techniques as an almost sure fire approach to good outcomes--as variable and complex as they can be.
@@robertburatt5981 Agree. The idea behind “tool kits” is naive. So many factors: the patient’s desire to change; the training of the therapist; the talent possessed by or lacking in the therapist; etc.
@@doncarveth
I see the push for technique over the reality has a totalitarian quality about it. It offers the delusion of "certainty" that is childish in nature.
Hi Mr. Carveth, are you familiar with Mark Solms (NeuroPsychoAnalyst) and/or Steve & Pauline Richards + James Dowling from the RUclips Channel titled “Jung To Live By? You may find their work interesting.
Thank you for the tip, I will certainly look into it
@@doncarveth Mark Solms has a published article titled “The ‘Id’ Knows More than the ‘Ego’” that could be a good start.
