  • The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge. - Carl Jung
    Shadow work is hard, therefore, the process of assimilation requires one to ask oneself some challenging questions.
    In today's video, I endeavor to answer these questions.
    This is a remastered version of a video I published back in 2019. You can find the original here: • Carl Jung and the Shad...

    The shadow can look big or it can look small, depending on the angle from which the light caresses you. What is the size of your shadow?

    • @deanharris7149
      @deanharris7149 2 года назад

      The exact size it needs to be. It is a contemporary and is more me than the clothes that I wear. It is closer to me than the words I hear people say. My shadow is not the dog barking at me, it’s the gas station map you try and look at while you’re driving.

    Find Gold Within The Shadow.
    Everything unconscious is what the shadow is.
    Simple example:
    It will contain anger if there is no healthy outlet for it and are overly compassionate in an unhealthy way.
    Or compassion if all you are is anger consciously.
    Yin & yang.
    I enjoy these videos keep up the great work

    Great observation on life. This helps us to see that all shadows are born out of light and it is ourselves that stand in between/block the truth by the illusion. I can see why Jung never called it the dark work, because there is always light directly in front of us.🙏💜

    *_The most terrifying thing is to accept oneself completely._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    *_As a child I felt myself to be alone, and I am still, because I know things and must hint at things which others apparently know nothing of, and for the most part do not want to know. Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself, or from holding certain views which others find inadmissible._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    *_Neurosis_*_ is always a _*_substitute_*_ for legitimate _*_suffering._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    *_Filling the conscious mind with ideal conceptions is a characteristic of Western theosophy, but not the confrontation with the shadow and the world of darkness. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious._*
    ~ Carl Jung; The Philosophical Tree; CW 13: Alchemical Studies. P.335

    *_People don't have ideas. Ideas have people._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    _A man who has not passed through the _*_inferno_*_ of his passions has never overcome them. As far as we can discern, the _*_sole purpose_*_ of human existence is to kindle a _*_light_*_ in the darkness of mere being. Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of _*_ourselves._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    _Your _*_visions_*_ will become _*_clear_*_ only when you can look into your own _*_heart._*_ Who looks outside, _*_dreams;_*_ who looks inside, _*_awakes._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    _The privilege of a lifetime is to become who _*_you truly are._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    _We cannot change _*_anything_*_ until we _*_accept_*_ it. Condemnation does not liberate, it _*_oppresses._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    *_Thinking_*_ is difficult,.. that's why most people _*_judge._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    _The _*_greatest_*_ and most important problems of life are all fundamentally _*_insoluble._*_ They can never be solved but only _*_outgrown._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    _Man needs _*_difficulties;_*_ they are necessary for _*_health._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    _Until you make the unconscious _*_conscious,_*_ it will _*_direct_*_ your life and you will call it _*_fate._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    _Nothing has a stronger _*_influence_*_ psychologically on their environment, and especially on their _*_children,_*_ than the _*_unlived life_*_ of the _*_parent._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    *_Dreams_*_ are the guiding words of the _*_soul._*_ Why should I henceforth not _*_love_*_ my dreams and not make their riddling images into objects of my _*_daily consideration?_*
    ~ Carl Jung

    _The meeting of _*_two personalities_*_ is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are _*_transformed._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    _Show me a _*_sane man_*_ and I will _*_cure_*_ him for you._
    ~ Carl Jung

    _The _*_debt_*_ we owe to the play of _*_imagination_*_ is _*_incalculable._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    _The most _*_intense conflicts,_*_ if overcome, leave behind a sense of _*_security_*_ and _*_calm_*_ that is not easily disturbed. It is just these intense conflicts and their conflagration which are needed to produce _*_valuable_*_ and _*_lasting results._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    _Every form of _*_addiction_*_ is bad, no matter whether the narcotic be alcohol, morphine or _*_idealism._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    _Shrinking away from _*_death_*_ is something unhealthy and _*_abnormal_*_ which _*_robs_*_ the second half of life of it's _*_purpose._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    _Where _*_love rules,_*_ there is no will to power, and where _*_power_*_ predominates, love is lacking. The one is the _*_shadow_*_ of the other._
    ~ Carl Jung

    *_Understanding_*_ does not cure _*_evil,_*_ but it is a definite _*_help,_*_ inasmuch as one can cope with a _*_comprehensible darkness._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    _There is no coming to _*_consciousness_*_ without _*_pain._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    _Even a _*_happy life_*_ cannot be without a measure of _*_darkness,_*_ and the word 'happy' would lose it's meaning if it were not balanced by _*_sadness._*
    ~ Carl Jung

    *_Knowledge_*_ rests not upon truth alone, but upon _*_error_*_ also._
    ~ Carl Jung
    "_There is no coming to *consciousness* without *pain.*_ People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own soul. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious."
    ~ Carl Jung

    *_The State takes the place of God...and State slavery is a form of worship...The State, like the Church, demands enthusiasm, self-sacrifice, and love, and if religion requires or presupposes the 'fear of God,' then the State takes good care to provide the necessary terror._*
    ~ Carl Jung, _The Undiscovered Self_

    *_The increasing dependence on the State is anything but a healthy symptom; it means that the whole nation is in a fair way to becoming a herd of sheep, constantly relying on a shepherd to drive them into good pastures. The shepherd's staff soon becomes a rod of iron, and the shepherds turn into wolves... Any man who still possesses the instinct of self preservation knows perfectly well that only a swindler would offer to relieve him of responsibility, for surely no one in his senses would dream of taking responsibility for the existence of another. The man who promises everything is sure to fulfil nothing, and everyone who promises too much is in danger of using evil means in order to carry out his promises, and is already on the road to perdition._*
    ~ Carl Jung, CW 10, Para 413, _Civilization in Transition_

    *_On the contrary, when I began my career as a psychiatrist and psychotherapist, I was completely ignorant of Chinese philosophy, and only later did my professional experience show me that in my technique I had been unconsciously following that secret way which for centuries had been the preoccupation of the best minds of the East._*
    ~ Carl Jung, CW 13, Para 10

    *_The great events of world history are, at bottom, profoundly unimportant. In the last analysis the essential thing is the life of the individual. This alone makes history, here alone do the great transformations first take place, and the whole future, the whole history of the world, ultimately spring as a gigantic summation from these hidden sources in individuals. In our most private and most subjective lives we are not only the passive witnesses of our age, and it's sufferers, but also it's makers. We make our own epoch._*
    ~ Carl Jung, _The Meaning of Psychology for Modern Man_

    Great content! I bought the Red Book because of your latests videos. I've only read Jung's The Unconscious (1938) which I found at a local antique books store. It was a sale because it is such an old copy, but I felt dragged, gut-punched, called out, nourished, cleansed and de-traumatised after reading it. People pay tons of money to shrinks for years to get what I got for a few pesos. It's one of my precious posessions It all comes down to duality, doesn't it? Being aware of it, fighting it, keeping it in check, and finally accepting it.

    Great video. It brings to mind the conundrum of criminal groups as they inter-act with society. Does any mafia, cartel or group for instance, cause drug addiction, buy importing, selling and distributing it, or do these groups hold up a mirror to who we are individually and collectively revealing truths about our "respectable selves" we'd rather not face?
