@Academy of Ideas Great information, but you're reading far too quickly for material of this complexity. This is unpleasant because it doesn't allow the viewer to fully grok the meaning without stopping periodically to rewind. This unpleasantness will certainly decrease your views/subscribes. Keep up the good work, but without the rush. Think graceful, perhaps stately.
Very interesting the idea about how vulnerable a society becomes when it is composed of people who don't know who they are! Very relevant to current times and governmental techniques.
@fynes leigh what you mean is, the discovery of what's behind those masks demands the hardest work one can do; to focus entirely on the self with no distraction. although everybody knows that there is divinity even in just pursuing this goal; most people will choose to dream and repress their guilt about it and hope some kind of god (actually any higher level of consciousness to believe it exists) will forgive them and bring salvation. from time to time this belief shutters, and it is the moment where we can finally start working hard, but we will lose focus again, through stimulants that other people (or people in our minds) call us back in.
@fynes leigh well it is also not up to you what people will get from what you say, so in my humble opinion, solipsism is the way to go. sorry, in my universe, I am your god.
Some succint bullet points to analyze: - There's more to our beings and to whom we are than just our Persona, the mask we socially project. - There's more to know about ourselves and our unconscious than just what the Ego knows. - Accepting one's shadow is crucial to a better development of the Self, withdrawing qualities that are hidden and repressed that one wishes to integrate within us in a healthier way and are dying to come out. - What we look for in a lover, friend or family member of the opposite sex is possibly a reflection of our Anima/Animus. But I'm still digesting this one out, I suspect most our 'crushes' are overlapping in qualities with our own Anima/Animus, thus we draw ourselves to those people. - The true self is a never ending journey of alignment and acceptance and even self-awareness of all these bullet points and more.
They have a fake story line which involves finding ones real self. There are lots of different things they discuss but u will have to research. It’s a super deep and mysterious storyline line but it’s very fun and interesting and they discuss these topics. The story line also has points and factors from books like ‘Demian’
@@zehrafaisal9179 well.. I don't follow the band but, now that you tell me this, i think (whether unintentionally or not) the band is doing a good job introduction their fans to more serious topics and noteworthy philosophers. Most of the band's fans may be young, but when they grasp the meaning of these concepts (shadow, ego, and self), I think they'll find that these concepts are very useful tools in viewing the world. I encourage them to read more of carl jung's works about the shadow, anima/animus etc. Hopefully, when the young fans are grown, they can see why societies become polarized, and why extremists and dictators rise. And I also hope that, by reading these kind of works, they may also be equiped in fully realizing themselves
@@zehrafaisal9179 not exactly fake. They're interpreting it in their own way, how they came this far in 7 years, the personas they created, their own shadows which clashes with their inner self and how they overcome this and how they embrace it all and move forward. In the album they question their identities, their purpose now they've come this far, their love and passion for their art, their love for their fans, the painful cage(?) behind all the smiles and cheers onstage, etc. It very much resonates with the Jungian psychology. (P.S I'm not very good at explaining stuff. English is not my first language 😅)
"Individuation means becoming a single, homogeneous being, and, insofar as individuality embraces our innermost, last, and incomparable uniqueness, it also implies becoming one's own self. We could therefore translate individuation as coming to self-hood or self-realization." - Carl Jung
Hi guys. This is true. I dropped my mask and feel great. I lost weight easily because Im not holding back feelings. I do agree that I do not conform as before but what I gain is worth more than social praise or money.
When I was a young man , returning to my home town after travelling for more than a year, I really noticed the " persona" many of my schoolmates had adopted since beginning their careers. In some cases it was quite shocking ,how quickly they had changed so much. At the time I knew nothing about Jung , but I thought of it as a " mask" they had adopted. Jung is definitely one of the most important shaman of our times ,I would suggest
Be careful when analyzing other people. Maybe who they were in high school was the true persona. Or, maybe they actually did change in a short period of time. The transition to adulthood is a big one and is normal to change drastically. I find more productive to use Jung's teachings inwards. It's hard to even know ourselves. It's generally unproductive to guess what's going on through other people's journey.
Does anyone feel connected with the Self and the universe? The only thing that gives me these feelings is knowledge. We truly are just bits of information carried around.
The point about the lack of individuation leading to the rise of tyranny is a particularly poignant one, and perhaps one that we are witnessing at this moment. The growth of differing and clashing political masses does not bode well for the near future.
Hey man great channel you have, I have one suggestion though: you might want to consider adding a number to the title (and thumbnail?) of individual parts of multi part series. That would make things so much easier!
It would be nice if all of you would quit saying BTS as if we all know what the fuck that means. Did you not take college course English? you never use shit like that unless you know everyone reading knows what you're talking about.
Wonderful and concise introduction to an understanding of "Individuation" something I realize in watching this, has been a guiding force in me since early on in my life.
With the end of this video, I have now watched every academy of ideas video-some videos I've watched 5 or more times. Thanks for the content. I think I'll continue watching these videos: I tend to listen to them while I work. Now I will listen to all of Jordan B Peterson's lectures.
So thankful for your videos...Just like Dr.Gabor Mate would say before you let the world know who you are, the world already tells you who you are and are supposed to be. Induviduation is the act of Rebel Wisdom that's trying to find and integrate itself by peeling all the layers and then reintegrating them to not be parts Self but by becoming a Whole Individual without any resistance to any part of the Self. One of the finest egs put out, I feel, in todays world is Martha Beck's Way to Integrity, Andre Agassi's Open and IFT by Richard Schwartz.
This is totally the level up i needed, everyone would need, from Jordan Peterson's lectures. Like the actual material he is referring too, unprocessed.
INCREDIBLE. I've had some pretty profound experiences lately, and this is one of those video's that has just happened to come at the exact right time for me. Thank you for making this video and sharing some beautiful insights.
Exactly. That's why the mysterious looking dude that you encountered in a kinda dream place before you got you'r first persona in persona 1, is wearing a mask. Which i suppose, represent the persona. Even in the tarot cards in p3 and p4 had a mask symbol at the back. Also in p4 golden, they even put some explanation about this Jungian topic. (I had a great respect to Mr. Edogawa right now because of that lol)
Psyche = One's total individual personality Conscious vs Unconscious Ego (center of consciousness) vs Realm (center of being/ the sensed universe) Personal (repressed elements) vs Collective (instincts + archetypes) Archetypes = evolved cognitive structures which influence emotions, thoughts, and behaviors Harmony in balance. Inflation and deflation are bad. Balance and Harmony is Good. Dreams are a doorway to the unconscious realm. We can use dreams to our advantage and optimize our discussions about our dreams to make the best use of them. Dreams are pure nature and i regularly use the pos-hypnotic suggestion with my clients telling them that their dreams will continue to do the great work for them every time they sleep. I also teach them how to think better. I usually start with a demo about the value of mental rehearsal which I learnt from Tony Robbins. Doing things help you appreciate the value behind accepting new learning. Once you've measured your own success after applying this simple set of instructions you will know why it is important to always start with positive mental rehearsal. You will need a paper and pen. Draw 4 text boxes at each corner of your paper Label the boxes like this : 1- Potential 2- Action 3- Result 4- Certainty or Belief Connect the boxes in numerical order with arrows from the 1st box to the 4th box If you want better results would you aim for: 1- How would you increase your potential? Are you God? 2- How would you get yourself to act better? Consistency is key. You cant wait to just feel like it one day can you? 3- Do you know how to get better results? Have you any idea how you would measure your desired outcomes? Have you recognised any undesirable outcomes you'd rather not repeat? 4- What about certainty? How can you be certain if its possible you dont even know? First you do and then you know; right? So heres how Tony taught me to demonstrate the power of mental rehearsal: When youre ready for change, the best place to start is your mind. Build certainty in the journey you are about to embark on. Mentally rehearse doing what you will do and do it well at least three times before doing it. In order to better understand what i mean, prepare yourself for an experiment and familiarise yourself with the following instructions: 1. Stand feet together pointing forward 2. Raise your right arm and extend your pointing finger forward 3. Without moving your legs; twist as far as you are comfortable doing so to your right and memorise the spot in your space that you happen to be pointing at. This is your baseline or initial measure. It is important when carrying out experiments to keep in mind the acronym TOTE. TOTE means to TEST first, then to OPERATE your experimental intervention before TESTING again in order to EXIT your experiment. You need a baseline measure and an outcome measure in order to call anything you do an experiment. 1-Test for baseline 2-Operate experimental intervention 3-Test for resulting outcomes 4-Exit experiment The most effective level of intervention is at the level of certainty. To do so you only need to use your imagination so close your eyes and dont move your body while doing this first mental rehearsal. Imagine standing feet together pointing forward Imagine raising your arm and pointing forward Imagine twisting to your right and passing your initial point Imagine you look like its the easiest most fun thing to do in the world as you do it Then Imagine twisting back in order to start over with another mental rehearsal Start at the beginning; imagine your feet Imagine raising your arm and pointing your pointing finger forward Then Imagine Twisting to your right and going further, so much further, at least twice as far! And notice that it looks easy and fun Then Imagine twisting back in to start the next mental rehearsal Start at the beginning and imagine your feet Then Imagine yourself raising your arm and pointing forwards And twist to the right and keep twisting and twisting like a rubber band All the way round and round again and again as you notice yourself enjoying yourself as you do Then twist back and open your eyes for the final test of this experiment. This time test your body. How much further did you twist this time? Couldn't you have gone that far from the very beginning? How much better were your results after you had done at least 3 mental rehearsals before attempting the "real thing"? Please find me and follow me and tell me what happened for you!
I hope the academy of ideas covers some topic on Hindu/Buddhist (Eastern Philosophy) Jung reads just like the Mandukya Upanishad. Similarly Nietzsche's work wa influenced by Schopenhauer who in turn was influenced by Indian texts. When Swami Vivekananda addressed his lectures in the west in 1890s, his audience were T.S.Eliot,Sigmund Freud, Nikola Tesla, Alan Watts,Christopher Isherwood, Romain Rolland etc. Even Maslow's hierarchy of needs is a translation from Sri Aurbindo's planes and parts of being. And earlier both Thoreau and Ralph Waldo Emerson never denied theinfluence of Hindu philosophy in their outlooks and legacy. The whole of Psychology stands on the back of the Upanishads. I hope India's contribution is duly appreciated some time.
Carl Jung is the most brilliant mind of the 20th century. He completely surpassed and trounced his predecessor, Freud. Please may the 21st century be the Century of Jung. That quote on Individuation at the end of the video perfectly sums up the modern left and its tactics.
I want to write a fantasy novel with a world based on Jung's ideas. Where a higher religious power suppresses knowledge, science, and technology while preventing the spread and unity of humanity - appearing to be antagonistic, but in actuality is attempting to protect and nurture individuation, as well as prevent the rise of totalitarian groups.
It is easy to now our good points, we must know our weaknesses and know them well. This virtually requires a life-long, demanding and technical process of training under a fully qualified, if not a master teacher.
Inflation of persona is what I got when I joined a sorority. It is the one decision in my life that I regret the most and the one that has significantly impacted my mental health negatively.
@@BalwinderSingh-xg2xc Wtf is brainly people. Also, it's not necessarily the music itself that's bad, though I don't really care much for it either. I just dislike the community around it. They idolize korean pretty boys as if they're gods and it's pretty disgusting to look at.
The way BTS writes songs about psychology, old stories, and history; it blows my mind. They are such intelligent, talented musicians. Their music truly helps people to understand more about these things 💜
Carl Jung studied astrology. Look at the planets which represents archetypes and how they relate to your inner planets. Pluto: Kali = Pele = Life and death = extremism and intensity, Unanus: The awakener of humanity = Prometheus = Brilliance = Electricity = Mania = Revolution = New beginnings, Saturnus: authority = kronos = realism = material world = wisdom = depression.
i think for the BT universe, each member represents a specific archetype in the collective unconscious. and this new comeback is going to analyze how the persona and the collective unconscious interact. meanwhile, the songs are going to be about persona specifically.
@@lifewasgiventous1614 Yeah. Explain time~ The kpop boyband that your niece always listens to is called BTS. They always give deep meanings or theories into the lyrics of their songs, choreographies and MV's that connects with their storyline. They are finally ending the "love yourself" era and starting in a new era called "Map of the soul persona". Also this is why so many ARMYs are watching this vid because they are trying to understand the whole new era for the theories in their storyline. Ehh.. This seems a bit messy. Im sorry english is not my first langguage.
Is anyone here visiting bc of the new BTS concept, Map of the Soul-Persona? If so, care to discuss any theories you have with me? Here’s mine: i think for the BT universe, each member represents a specific archetype in the collective unconscious. and this new comeback is going to analyze how the persona and the collective unconscious interact. meanwhile, the songs are going to be about persona specifically. im interested in how they will utilize “dreams” to explore the collective unconsciousness... and whether they will link Armys with that collective unconsciousness... i feel like Armypedia is going to be a part of that exploration. Any thoughts on that?
In my experience, you may directly confront your personal unconscious even if it is displeasing. You’ll realize parts of yourself that may have been long forgotten but still contributing to your thoughts and actions of now. Realizing the better and worse parts of your self in conscience and unconsciousness allows you to more appropriately address any perceived flaws and strengths of yourself, as well as bridging your mind even further.
@Chris Cyrel Estil It is indeed very hard work. And it is never finished. The simplest way is not always the preferred way. The importance is in having the ongoing lived experience ....
It seems that my journey has lead me to the Individuation aspect for my life. I know there are wise and loving nuggets in Jung's teachings which would accompany me as I go toward Individuation. However, I admit that these teachings are difficult for me to grasp. I require multiple viewings of videos such as these in order to scratch the surface. Your book recommendations might be helpful, but I wonder if they are too philosophical in nature, thus rendering the content a challenge for me to understand. Your videos are wonderfully encouraging. The reader's voice is perfect in tone, pitch, and pacing. If you have any recommendations for accessing "Jung for Dummies" I'm willing to investigate them.
I had a strange dream that I'm trying to decode the meaning of, and this seems like an appropriate space for it, i guess? My girlfriend and I were navigating through rooms and hallways in our own home, but not our current home. The lighting was largely comprised of deep blue hues. We seemed to be having a good time, and connecting with each other all along the way: through one door was my current bedroom. Upon entering, I grabbed a stupid collectors katana, and the bathroom door slowly opened illuminating the total darkness. Her standing roughly 8 feet from the door, gets impaled through her collarbone with a cliche reaper scythe. As I hear her choke on her own blood, all of my movements are stripped of their conviction, assuming there was any in the first place, and as 2 dark figures appeared from the doorway, i was overcome with the realization that I too had been struck. That's when I woke up. I think the dream entails the consequences of my nonchalant approach and attitude towards life, and operates as a metaphor representing my inadequacy and tendency for inaction, and it's ability to destroying all I deem important. Thanks for reading this, if you did.
An astute observation. Just to add what I feel from reading this: You don't feel that you are in control of yourself and am afraid it will make your gf, the love of your life suffer. I believe it's your subconscious mind telling you something. You have it in you, to become what you want. You know what needs to be done. You don't need anyone's permission to be strong and capable. Just do it. Smart work is only possible for there's hard work that precede it. Hope this helps. If not, do treat it as just my own reflection of your dream. Have an amazing life!
No. Individuation happens when you develop and live life as fully as you possibly can. That means a career, relationships, taking responsibility for your life in every respect, everything. Eventually this will take you to your limits where the ego will fail. That will catyst the individuation process. It is very difficult.
tjovadevalivat a psychedelic experience in the right set, setting and dosage can trigger a loss of ego. The unconscious can be expressed during a psychedelic experience too. To say you need a career and what not is a bit unfair, for one thing, not everyone is in the position to have a career. And how can you define how a person can live life to the full? Surely that's down to their own thoughts and life experience, not a predisposed way of living in whatever culture that may be.
+Ryan Thomason Thanks for your reply. You had several points. I try to adress them all. 1) Loss of ego is not enough. The lived life of the ego will carry you forward when you meet the unconscious. If you lose the ego through psychedelics it will probably be escapism. Individuation is not just an experience. It is life at its fullest. 2) It doesn't matter what career you have as long as you have developed your conscious personality as far as you can. It's all about putting your abilities to the test of the real world. 3) There is no cultural standard of living the life to the full. It is all about your own abilities. But you still have to do it (if you want individuation). How can you define it? Well, the person just has to feel what he has left undone in his life, and then go for it. As I said, it is very difficult and individuation is often a tragic and uncomfortable experience. Another point: Yes, life is unfair, and individuation is not for everyone.
tjovadevalivat I see what you mean about the ego, that's a valid point. I like your point about feeling what is left undone. I think nature rewards courage, hence why it's uncomfortable. I think if you are in a position of being able to do what you need to do for individuation to happen you have to do it, especially if not everyone is able to experience it.
It did for me, it was the first time I did LSD when I had my worst-est bad trip and felt a death purely because i was forced to bring my "Shadow" to the light. I felt that I had survived an near death experience and lived to see day again as someone reborn, baptized from all my previous misdoings and denials. Anyone who says otherwise never felt it and will argue of it and it's okay. In my heart, I know what is the honest truth even if I'm the only one who's aware of it. I was set on the right path since then purely because of LSD haha I know it sounds stupid but hell, I used to have a total anxiety of being left out and alone and different. Now, I don't mind if the entire universe conspires just to judge me. You know what, I'll take even my time to try and understand them and their convictions, maybe they're the ones who are suffering and only wants to be listened to.

Yet again such great quality to your work.
When I was a young man , returning to my home town after travelling for more than a year, I really noticed the " persona" many of my schoolmates had adopted since beginning their careers. In some cases it was quite shocking ,how quickly they had changed so much. At the time I knew nothing about Jung , but I thought of it as a " mask" they had adopted. Jung is definitely one of the most important shaman of our times ,I would suggest
Jung was THE giant of the 20thC
Be careful when analyzing other people. Maybe who they were in high school was the true persona. Or, maybe they actually did change in a short period of time. The transition to adulthood is a big one and is normal to change drastically. I find more productive to use Jung's teachings inwards. It's hard to even know ourselves. It's generally unproductive to guess what's going on through other people's journey.

When I clicked on this video I knew that there would be fellow Persona fans making references in the comments, and I love it!
Plaudits to you sir, this is brilliant. The last quote gave me chills, it's exactly what we can see going on around us on a huge scale.
The point about the lack of individuation leading to the rise of tyranny is a particularly poignant one, and perhaps one that we are witnessing at this moment.
The growth of differing and clashing political masses does not bode well for the near future.

(I had a great respect to Mr. Edogawa right now because of that lol)
if Carl Jung was never born, then Persona would never exist.
That's exactly how I got here haha
Jacob Xiao Long This sentence. It scares me
Thanks for the video. It reminded me of continuing my dream journal. I believe dreams are very important to know yourSELF and what drives you.
Thank you for this easy to understand interactive video.!
Great teacher who helps understand the lost self.
Thank you for making this video about Carl Jung. It made me want to read his books and dive deeper into it.
Psyche = One's total individual personality
Conscious vs Unconscious
Ego (center of consciousness) vs Realm (center of being/ the sensed universe)
Personal (repressed elements) vs Collective (instincts + archetypes)
Archetypes = evolved cognitive structures which influence emotions, thoughts, and behaviors
Harmony in balance. Inflation and deflation are bad. Balance and Harmony is Good.
Dreams are a doorway to the unconscious realm. We can use dreams to our advantage and optimize our discussions about our dreams to make the best use of them. Dreams are pure nature and i regularly use the pos-hypnotic suggestion with my clients telling them that their dreams will continue to do the great work for them every time they sleep. I also teach them how to think better. I usually start with a demo about the value of mental rehearsal which I learnt from Tony Robbins. Doing things help you appreciate the value behind accepting new learning. Once you've measured your own success after applying this simple set of instructions you will know why it is important to always start with positive mental rehearsal.
You will need a paper and pen.
Draw 4 text boxes at each corner of your paper
Label the boxes like this :
1- Potential
2- Action
3- Result
4- Certainty or Belief
Connect the boxes in numerical order with arrows from the 1st box to the 4th box
If you want better results would you aim for:
1- How would you increase your potential? Are you God?
2- How would you get yourself to act better? Consistency is key. You cant wait to just feel like it one day can you?
3- Do you know how to get better results? Have you any idea how you would measure your desired outcomes? Have you recognised any undesirable outcomes you'd rather not repeat?
4- What about certainty? How can you be certain if its possible you dont even know? First you do and then you know; right?
So heres how Tony taught me to demonstrate the power of mental rehearsal:
When youre ready for change, the best place to start is your mind. Build certainty in the journey you are about to embark on. Mentally rehearse doing what you will do and do it well at least three times before doing it. In order to better understand what i mean, prepare yourself for an experiment and familiarise yourself with the following instructions:
1. Stand feet together pointing forward
2. Raise your right arm and extend your pointing finger forward
3. Without moving your legs; twist as far as you are comfortable doing so to your right and memorise the spot in your space that you happen to be pointing at.
This is your baseline or initial measure. It is important when carrying out experiments to keep in mind the acronym TOTE. TOTE means to TEST first, then to OPERATE your experimental intervention before TESTING again in order to EXIT your experiment. You need a baseline measure and an outcome measure in order to call anything you do an experiment.
1-Test for baseline
2-Operate experimental intervention
3-Test for resulting outcomes
4-Exit experiment
The most effective level of intervention is at the level of certainty. To do so you only need to use your imagination so close your eyes and dont move your body while doing this first mental rehearsal.
Imagine standing feet together pointing forward
Imagine raising your arm and pointing forward
Imagine twisting to your right and passing your initial point
Imagine you look like its the easiest most fun thing to do in the world as you do it
Then Imagine twisting back in order to start over with another mental rehearsal
Start at the beginning; imagine your feet
Imagine raising your arm and pointing your pointing finger forward
Then Imagine Twisting to your right and going further, so much further, at least twice as far!
And notice that it looks easy and fun
Then Imagine twisting back in to start the next mental rehearsal
Start at the beginning and imagine your feet
Then Imagine yourself raising your arm and pointing forwards
And twist to the right and keep twisting and twisting like a rubber band
All the way round and round again and again as you notice yourself enjoying yourself as you do
Then twist back and open your eyes for the final test of this experiment.
This time test your body. How much further did you twist this time? Couldn't you have gone that far from the very beginning? How much better were your results after you had done at least 3 mental rehearsals before attempting the "real thing"?
Please find me and follow me and tell me what happened for you!
I hope the academy of ideas covers some topic on Hindu/Buddhist (Eastern Philosophy)
Jung reads just like the Mandukya Upanishad. Similarly Nietzsche's work wa influenced by Schopenhauer who in turn was influenced by Indian texts.
When Swami Vivekananda addressed his lectures in the west in 1890s, his audience were T.S.Eliot,Sigmund Freud, Nikola Tesla, Alan Watts,Christopher Isherwood, Romain Rolland etc. Even Maslow's hierarchy of needs is a translation from Sri Aurbindo's planes and parts of being.
And earlier both Thoreau and Ralph Waldo Emerson never denied theinfluence of Hindu philosophy in their outlooks and legacy.
The whole of Psychology stands on the back of the Upanishads.
I hope India's contribution is duly appreciated some time.
I’m so thankful for these lectures. My shadow and anima thank you as well 😋
This is incredible. Truly enlightening. Thank you AOI.

The best thing that happened to this channel. Thanks for a 2nd awesome video on C.G. Jung
"The arcana is the means by which all is revealed." -Carl MF Jung
So true king
one of your videos is far more useful than all my years of school
These comments are all about BTS or Persona, I love it
Carl Jung is the most brilliant mind of the 20th century. He completely surpassed and trounced his predecessor, Freud. Please may the 21st century be the Century of Jung. That quote on Individuation at the end of the video perfectly sums up the modern left and its tactics.
Sorry, this century will be the jordan peterson one (but since he's the biggest Jung-fan out there, they can share the spot4 light 😉)
Brilliant. I am profoundly grateful for this channel. Thank you. : )
I want to write a fantasy novel with a world based on Jung's ideas. Where a higher religious power suppresses knowledge, science, and technology while preventing the spread and unity of humanity - appearing to be antagonistic, but in actuality is attempting to protect and nurture individuation, as well as prevent the rise of totalitarian groups.
It is easy to now our good points, we must know our weaknesses and know them well. This virtually requires a life-long, demanding and technical process of training under a fully qualified, if not a master teacher.
Brilliant two videos... thank you - and so poignant for the mad world we find ourselves in, in 2022

My last 5 brain cells spent the entire video trying to figure out where the next slide would manifest.
Very well constructed, I enjoyed this content and your fluidity. Carl Jung's ideas are crazy interesting.
Hv u got it?
Thank you for organizing everything I was trying to figure out in my mind.
Hv u got it clear?
this philosophers were very good, they nailed these theories.
Inflation of persona is what I got when I joined a sorority. It is the one decision in my life that I regret the most and the one that has significantly impacted my mental health negatively.
So appreciative of this outstanding snapshot of Jungian concepts! 👏🏾
I’m glad the BTS folks and Persona fans can agree on something.
Aren't they the same folks?
@@ouroboros3141
Definitely not. K-pop is trash lmao.
Yeahhhh
@@Ausar0 you better not mess up with brainly people
BTW kpop is not always trash
@@BalwinderSingh-xg2xc
Wtf is brainly people.
Also, it's not necessarily the music itself that's bad, though I don't really care much for it either. I just dislike the community around it. They idolize korean pretty boys as if they're gods and it's pretty disgusting to look at.
who’s here after bts released their comeback details and album name 👀
rashmi x meeeeee ☝🏾😂😂😂😂

Me. And im learning A LOT. I am do pumped for this comeback.
YESS BISHHH
chanelknj is that you XD
Jung is so interesting. As a mentally ill person who is a deep thinker and creative, Jungian theory really resonates with me.
Heard about Carl Jung through another you tube video related with BTS.
Same🙋🏻♀️
.
I didn’t regret one bit..
ARMY HERE LOL I am so interested in this and bts have made it more interesting!!
The way BTS writes songs about psychology, old stories, and history; it blows my mind. They are such intelligent, talented musicians. Their music truly helps people to understand more about these things 💜
Carl Jung studied astrology. Look at the planets which represents archetypes and how they relate to your inner planets. Pluto: Kali = Pele = Life and death = extremism and intensity, Unanus: The awakener of humanity = Prometheus = Brilliance = Electricity = Mania = Revolution = New beginnings, Saturnus: authority = kronos = realism = material world = wisdom = depression.
Throw away the Persona🙌
Abandon the Ego🙌
Embrace the Infinite Self🙏
i think that this is the best channel that exists!! love it
Great video man. Love this stuff, someone's got to!
+MrJigga420 Glad you enjoyed it :)
I spent 2 weeks writing after work late into the night... This is so similar to the things I've written 😮
i am so glad i found this channel
And guys, this is the reason I not only stan BTS, but also RESPECT them
Definitely!!💜💜
Here because bts is all over carl jung and im trying to understand map of the soul: persona before released!
samee
i think for the BT universe, each member represents a specific archetype in the collective unconscious. and this new comeback is going to analyze how the persona and the collective unconscious interact.
meanwhile, the songs are going to be about persona specifically.
Wait what is BTS ?
Wait you mean to tell me that k pop band my niece listens to are influenced by Carl Jung ?
@@lifewasgiventous1614
Yeah.
Explain time~
The kpop boyband that your niece always listens to is called BTS. They always give deep meanings or theories into the lyrics of their songs, choreographies and MV's that connects with their storyline. They are finally ending the "love yourself" era and starting in a new era called "Map of the soul persona". Also this is why so many ARMYs are watching this vid because they are trying to understand the whole new era for the theories in their storyline.
Ehh.. This seems a bit messy. Im sorry english is not my first langguage.
Is anyone here visiting bc of the new BTS concept, Map of the Soul-Persona?
If so, care to discuss any theories you have with me?
Here’s mine:

im interested in how they will utilize “dreams” to explore the collective unconsciousness... and whether they will link Armys with that collective unconsciousness...
i feel like Armypedia is going to be a part of that exploration.
Any thoughts on that?
Damn... Fam your english is really scienticy or deep... My brain is crashing!
Very good video, made me understand how it works.
My self is the mother of my idols;
There are more idols in the world than in reality.
Loved this channel definitely deserves 1 million + subscribers
Jung dropping the mic on societal drones everywhere.
So true
This was epic; amazing, insightful teaching. Extremely valuable. Thank you AOI
I need a new mind and si excited for the comeback
Jung + Shrooms = I don't know, but it seems promising
Why do Active Imagination when there are mushrooms growing right under your feet.
In my experience, you may directly confront your personal unconscious even if it is displeasing. You’ll realize parts of yourself that may have been long forgotten but still contributing to your thoughts and actions of now. Realizing the better and worse parts of your self in conscience and unconsciousness allows you to more appropriately address any perceived flaws and strengths of yourself, as well as bridging your mind even further.
Jungian shroom analysis. Sounds like it would be an interesting study
@@onsightitify Why do mushrooms when you can just sit back and do an active imagination????
@Chris Cyrel Estil It is indeed very hard work. And it is never finished. The simplest way is not always the preferred way. The importance is in having the ongoing lived experience ....
It seems that my journey has lead me to the Individuation aspect for my life. I know there are wise and loving nuggets in Jung's teachings which would accompany me as I go toward Individuation. However, I admit that these teachings are difficult for me to grasp. I require multiple viewings of videos such as these in order to scratch the surface. Your book recommendations might be helpful, but I wonder if they are too philosophical in nature, thus rendering the content a challenge for me to understand. Your videos are wonderfully encouraging. The reader's voice is perfect in tone, pitch, and pacing. If you have any recommendations for accessing "Jung for Dummies" I'm willing to investigate them.
I had a strange dream that I'm trying to decode the meaning of, and this seems like an appropriate space for it, i guess?
My girlfriend and I were navigating through rooms and hallways in our own home, but not our current home. The lighting was largely comprised of deep blue hues. We seemed to be having a good time, and connecting with each other all along the way: through one door was my current bedroom. Upon entering, I grabbed a stupid collectors katana, and the bathroom door slowly opened illuminating the total darkness. Her standing roughly 8 feet from the door, gets impaled through her collarbone with a cliche reaper scythe. As I hear her choke on her own blood, all of my movements are stripped of their conviction, assuming there was any in the first place, and as 2 dark figures appeared from the doorway, i was overcome with the realization that I too had been struck.
That's when I woke up. I think the dream entails the consequences of my nonchalant approach and attitude towards life, and operates as a metaphor representing my inadequacy and tendency for inaction, and it's ability to destroying all I deem important.
Thanks for reading this, if you did.
An astute observation. Just to add what I feel from reading this:
You don't feel that you are in control of yourself and am afraid it will make your gf, the love of your life suffer. I believe it's your subconscious mind telling you something. You have it in you, to become what you want. You know what needs to be done. You don't need anyone's permission to be strong and capable. Just do it. Smart work is only possible for there's hard work that precede it.
Hope this helps. If not, do treat it as just my own reflection of your dream. Have an amazing life!
I had to come here for SUGA ( BTS member ) SHADOW is a fucking amazing

@@n-extrafries-surprise ok, thank you.
It seems like you could say that psychedelics act as catalysts to the individuation process.
No. Individuation happens when you develop and live life as fully as you possibly can. That means a career, relationships, taking responsibility for your life in every respect, everything. Eventually this will take you to your limits where the ego will fail. That will catyst the individuation process. It is very difficult.
tjovadevalivat a psychedelic experience in the right set, setting and dosage can trigger a loss of ego. The unconscious can be expressed during a psychedelic experience too. To say you need a career and what not is a bit unfair, for one thing, not everyone is in the position to have a career. And how can you define how a person can live life to the full? Surely that's down to their own thoughts and life experience, not a predisposed way of living in whatever culture that may be.
+Ryan Thomason Thanks for your reply. You had several points. I try to adress them all. 1) Loss of ego is not enough. The lived life of the ego will carry you forward when you meet the unconscious. If you lose the ego through psychedelics it will probably be escapism. Individuation is not just an experience. It is life at its fullest. 2) It doesn't matter what career you have as long as you have developed your conscious personality as far as you can. It's all about putting your abilities to the test of the real world. 3) There is no cultural standard of living the life to the full. It is all about your own abilities. But you still have to do it (if you want individuation). How can you define it? Well, the person just has to feel what he has left undone in his life, and then go for it. As I said, it is very difficult and individuation is often a tragic and uncomfortable experience. Another point: Yes, life is unfair, and individuation is not for everyone.
tjovadevalivat I see what you mean about the ego, that's a valid point. I like your point about feeling what is left undone. I think nature rewards courage, hence why it's uncomfortable. I think if you are in a position of being able to do what you need to do for individuation to happen you have to do it, especially if not everyone is able to experience it.
It did for me, it was the first time I did LSD when I had my worst-est bad trip and felt a death purely because i was forced to bring my "Shadow" to the light. I felt that I had survived an near death experience and lived to see day again as someone reborn, baptized from all my previous misdoings and denials. Anyone who says otherwise never felt it and will argue of it and it's okay. In my heart, I know what is the honest truth even if I'm the only one who's aware of it. I was set on the right path since then purely because of LSD haha I know it sounds stupid but hell, I used to have a total anxiety of being left out and alone and different. Now, I don't mind if the entire universe conspires just to judge me. You know what, I'll take even my time to try and understand them and their convictions, maybe they're the ones who are suffering and only wants to be listened to.

At least the older games, the newer ones just use the phrases without the meaning.
Persona 4 is like this though. Never seen persona 1,2
yes the whole premise of persona is based on carl juan
Very good information. Thank you for sharing this wisdom.
it would be great if you give credit to artists so we can look them up later on!
