Carl Jung & Buddhism On The Unconscious
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 тра 2024
- What is the unconscious and do you really have one? Jungian psychology and the Yogācāra school of Buddhism both investigated the depths of the human psyche. Both proposed the existence of a hidden layer beneath our everyday conscious mind. In the way they understood this hidden (unconscious) mind, Jung and the Buddhists agreed on some essential points, but not on all. Both the similarities of their views and their differences give us fascinating insights into the functioning of our own psyches.

I owe this video, like everything else I do, to the gentle and constant support of my partner. Thank you, Elly!
Thank you for the great content but I'd like to make one quick comment. The Alayavijnana we describe in Buddhism is the Universal (collective) Consciousness, which Jung may be referring to as the Unconscious. The manas (7th) is described to be the "individual-oriented consciousness", "ego"...more of a function than an entity of illusory mind. The truly Enlightened (Pari-Nirvana) transcends beyond this (Alayavijnana) to "The One-ness", "The Source", "The Buddha-Nature", "God", etc, named but cannot be conceptualized. (Words do get in the way of explaining something that can't really be conceptualized)

Well done 👍 maestro 👨🏫
as someone who grew up with multiple mental problems, i was and still surprised that Buddha already 'solved' my problems 2500 years ago better than modern psychologists. I've attended counseling, hypnoterapies, a psychiatrist etc. Learned about psychology as well . So desperate for help because i was suicidal most of the time, i turned my direction from modern psychology to buddhist 10-days meditation retreat. It was a life-changing experience because it worked even though i need more time to progress. Started to read the buddha's suttas and i was mindblown about the accuracy of his description about (my) mental state . It's a shame that no one in Wikipedia wrote that Buddha Gautama is the true founding father of psychology.
Don't worry about social medias! You realized and benefited from this , that is the best outcome!
Please heal for the better .. your very words helping people but your victory is your personal case and we wish for the best
Very few people in the world have access to the therapies you describe, or can afford to pay for them.
Buddhism is far less expensive.
Of course access to a library or the internet is still out of reach for many people across the world, and few can afford a retreat, few can drive to a Buddhist centre; but for those of us with access to a lot of these luxuries; access to the teachings of Buddhism is open to us.
@@kathrynmoores4146 Do you need to pay for the Buddhist meditation retreat? The most of genuine Buddhist retreat centers are free of costs. Google Vipassana meditation Center ( S N Goenka) , they are free for the beginners. These centers are run on donations
I’m happy that you too have benefited from the teachings - Buddha Shakyamuni as just a historical figure was pioneer - He can definitely be called the first psychologist, much more even as a pioneer, a true example of promoted oneness of human being leaving behind any distinction of caste, creed, color and gender all of which existed and still do!! Peace and happiness too all 🙏✨
I don't want to sound dramatic but this is one of the best videos I've ever seen on Carl Jung and Buddhism, you presented everything coherently and in a beautiful way, thank you.
Thank you, Jungian psychology and Buddhism are two of my greatest passions and I’m glad you enjoyed this!
I had a friend, a professor of psychology, who thought that the concept of the unconscious was bogus.
Best reality based explanation of unconscious I've seen.
Good Work
I agree completely.
'When the student is ready the teacher will appear."
Thanks for the lesson - exactly what I needed to hear, at the right time.
I believe that the Mahayana concept of dependent arising describes the deepest levels of the collective unconscious. No phenomenon can exist without the entirety of all other phenomena.
We are all in this LIVING together 🙏🏼❣️
The awareness of contrast within the cosmos mutually arises with the manifestation of the self. For the monk whose mind is thus released; exist or does not exist, both exist and does not exist, neither exist nor does not exist, do not apply
Between Buddhism, Taoism and Jung, you have everything you need to have a balanced approach to spirituality, shadow work and meaning to existence. Thanks for the video ❤️🙏
@@eradicate630 Taosim has much much more to explore into. Keep learning 👍
Excellent
This juxtaposition of two of the most meaninful intellectual/psychological/spiritual influences in my life (Jung/Buddha) is one of the best videos I've ever seen on UA-cam. I really enjoy the aesthetic and content of your videos. It's heartening to find profound and insightful content like this. Thank you. Please keep creating!
Agreed 💯
This composition is well articulated
Well said. My thoughts exactly.
"The sane outnumber the insane... a desperate arguement if ever there was one..." Thank you!! As someone who was put in a psych ward and called "schizo-affective" when I had a most profound spiritual awakening, this was balm to a tortured soul...
You are not alone 🙏🏼
🙏🏿 ❤
@@zanewalsh1812 Thank you!
I share that experience and am doing wonderfully and happy. I hope the best for you. We are all with you!
I am sure you are/were also addict
A brilliant video which describes the links between Buddhism and Jung. I have been a practising Buddhist since 1980, and because I first became familiar with Jung's ideas around 1970, I naturally and inadvertently combined the concepts of Buddhism with Jung. In Madame Blavatsky's Theosophy (HQ International and Varanasi India) and Rudolf Steiner's Anthroposophy (HQ Switzerland and International) there is much description of The Akashic Records. The Akashic Records seem to be synonymous with Jung's Collective Unconscious at a national level, world wide level and cosmic-galactic level. I don't believe everything Madame Blavatsky and Rudolf Steiner write, but on a number of points they are spot on. I like Buddhism so much because I can withdraw using meditation into the 8 Buddhist Janas. Greetings from the UK.
Any tips on Jhanas?
@@dayelu2679 My experience is it works but you must adhere to the Buddhist Teaching to get results. And the study of the subject in itself constitutes Samadhi. (Concentration.)
Always good to learn about C. G. Jung he followed so much Alchemy, native Americans, African & Buddhism, taoism.
This somehow reminds me how the late Alan watts put things across. 👍
Such a great marriage of western and eastern thought! I particularly love the modified perspective of the yin and yang symbol. I applaud your endeavor and express a profound gratitude for this wonderful gift!!🙏
Keep doing this kind of content, seeker. We're all together on this mysterious journey!
Very interesting introduction. I remember George Shearing, a well-known pianist (1919-2011), who was born blind, saying that it was a misconception that those who did not have sight could see black; he said blindness was like trying to see with your arm.
This was profoundly good. I’m in full agreement with the other commenters who say that this might be one of the best videos on UA-cam. I always adore a cross pollination of thinkers because of the depth of knowledge and the audacity it takes to engage in such an original piece of work and I think you nailed the landing on this one. I know a lot about Jung and a good deal about Buddhism and am coming from this with a head full of thoughts. The fact that the video itself was immensely beautiful original and engaging just made the whole thing even more amazing. Kudos on an amazing piece of work
As a long time student and practitioner of the Budda’s teaching I must say that I’m enjoying your videos as they present the Buddha’s teaching as I have studied from the scriptures. Thank you for your work. I’ve already shared your videos with my friends.
I'm amazed. This is without a doubt the best explanation of the five skandhas that I've ever encountered, and I've been studying Buddhism now for more than 20 years! It's so transparent and understandable, something I've been searching for for many years and have finally found here. A big thank you!
I do like your analogy of us all being leaves of the same tree. This video is the first I have seen and it was just up my alley, thank you!
This is a good write up and I enjoyed how you delved into this deeply. I would love to see you explore the collective unconsciousness from Jung in the future. Great work! It's a very high-production and captivating video on the subject.
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed this one! Jung's psychology is very dear to me and it would be an exciting challenge to do a whole video on the collective unconscious. I could cover the main archetypes, the complexes, the idea of wholeness... this is a great suggestion @Tommy Lee!
Your videos are incredibly insightful, and I appreciate your narration and explanation style. I struggle with a short attention span, so it can be challenging for me to watch long videos. However, I genuinely wished that this particular video was longer because it was so engaging. Please continue producing such excellent content, and I appreciate your efforts. Keep up the good work, brother! ❤️
You’re kind as ever, Ujjwal, thank you! I will keep trying to make the best video I can, and it feels greatly encouraging every time I see a new comment from you :)
Thank you for this clear presentation of a deep and vital topic...our unconscious.
This video was so helpful. I have been a practicing Buddhist for years and I still learned so much from this. Your explanations are clear and easier to understand.
Thank you
I'm experiencing and searching in books the things you are talking about 2 years now and i have to say that your content is so pure and u are giving very good details to the subjects in just 20'mins or so. Good job! channels like this boost the collective mind of the internet with wisdom for people to find it.

Wonderful work!
Having Eternalised comment on my video must be some sort of a rare unlockable achievement... thank you for the support!
Very interesting and well presented. I Paused the video at 15:08 because it occurs to me that you may have missed an important aspect of Jung's thought on the unconscious when you state that 'every action causes an opposite reaction in the unconscious' a formulation that needs to be further explored. My ideas on this are that the unconscious does not derive from a 'neutral state' but is continually attempting to fit experience and thought into a coherent narrative that justifies our actions and values. As such it attempts to eliminate or neutralise thoughts, ideas, experiences that do not fit into this 'self-narrative' and eventually the contradictions this produces force some of this material to the surface in the form of dreams and nightmares (desire, jealousy, guilt, fear, anxiety). Therefore, one might argue that the unconscious as Jung formulated it is not merely a repository but a force that possesses its own ethical purpose(s). And in this sense, I believe it is fair to argue that Buddhism grasps for the concept of 'karma' to justify its own ethical precepts which are otherwise baseless. (If all suffering is a product of the mind, rather than e.g. a product of injustice, then it is not a moral issue that we can or ought to act upon).
One of my favourites ever, it has furthermore increased my inclination towards spirituality. May the Buddha and his teachings continue to influence all sentient beings throughout generations and I hope the same for Carl Jung as well. ❤
Bro aside from the amazing visuals, the lecture is probably one of the deepest I have ever heard. on the topic It's like a profound secret is being revealed to me. Thank you, and personally I would love it if you made a vid on Geeta and Upanishads as well in this amazing style.
Thank you Samir, I'm happy this video made such an impression on you :) The Upanishads and the Bhagavad Gita are definitely topics I aim to cover.
And with that, I gained clarity. Thanks Seeker.
Great video. As far as the difference of Jung and Buddha, it may be beneficial to do a comparison between Jung and LaoTzu
Oh wow, this is very well made! I like the place you took me, thank you.
I feel very lucky to have come across this video of yours. I will re-watch it, since it has a depth which I feel I can hardly grasp at once. Thank you from the collective and concious mind, and from the instance which holds and is aware of it 🙏
What an Amazing Amazing! video 👏👏 your grasp and summarising such profound discussion in 20 mins is just incredible! I specially love the Bodhisattva vow - maybe they truly understood that liberation of all sentient beings is truly the Only way out - thank you

In this short video, I came to a better understanding of the distinctions between the conscious, personal unconscious, and the collective unconscious. Thanks for the knowledge!
That was very interesting. Thankyou. It only goes to show what an extraordinary person Jung was.
He really was…
After having a near death experience I am always interested in learning more. I was without a body but I could see. There is so much more going on than the human brain could ever understand. JDP Underhill 2023
Well! To compare the unconscious with dark matter does not strike me as a desperate argument at all...but as an interesting and inspiring way to look at it. BTW! That childhood traumas very often define what and how we experience life as adults has been made extremely clear to me, when I heard of some scientific research into anxiety a couple years ago. What the science dudes did was to expose a group of rats to a certain smell, accompanied by an electric shock through the floor in their cage. As expected, the rats soon experienced high levels of stress whenever they were exposed to this particular smell. Then they removed the offspring the moment they were born, to another cage/group of rats, which also had been exposed to the same smell, but no electricity, so they didn't react to the smell of course. BUT the rat babies from the other cage became as stressed and anxious as their biologic parrents the moment they were exposed to the smell. Therefore we are not only defined by our own traumas, BUT WE ALSO INHERIT OUR PARRENTS TRAUMAS.
This is soooo well aligned. LOVE IT!
This is probably one of the best UA-cam videos I have ever seen. It is a gem and worth watching multiple times. Interesting-- I had just written a few weeks ago these two haiku about the individual:
A tree in late Fall
Does it believe it is dying?
Awakens in Spring
--------
Perhaps our bodies
Are like the leaves of a tree
Going through seasons
Thank you Seeker, I love the depth and breadth of Buddhism. When I started chanting
Nam Myoho Renge Kyo
and reading the Lotus Sutra it opened my mind to a much broader reality than I had ever conceived. So many questions were answered. Your videos are excellent! Happiness, peace and love!
The Buddhism philosophies made reference in the video are mostly reflection of Mahayana Buddhism, whereas more in-depth explanations and definitions on Consciousness and Unconsciousness can also be found in Theravada Buddhism. There are much more related materials explained in Theravada Buddhism Abhidhamma Pitaka, particularly on mind and consciousness.
Wow. I always enjoy encountering new concepts within familiar topics. Probably your best video yet!
it is a great work! And thanks for the "what you seek is seeking you". This has made me so emotional.
Makes me want to know more. Much appreciated.
One of the best videos I have ever watched. The similarities and differences you were able to point at shows the level of research and hard work you did. The ending was beautiful where you mentioned the Mahayana vow and an idea of everything being interconnected which might as well be a fact.
Thank you for this insightful video! You have to make a follow up series in this theme please! Looking forward to the next❤
Science is about objectivity. Spirituality, subjectivity. The inner knowledge of how "my" mind works requires to be in touch with my own personal "reality" as it is now. Every being manifests a unique experience, beyond labels, definitions and concepts. The collective unconscious calls for the collective conscious, but every human case is different, for every experience is different. Also, besides the mind, there are emotions and feelings which cannot be placed in its origin, to the realm of the mind alone and which are important to learn about ourselves. I enjoyed your video. Thank you very much for offering such material.
You have earned a subscriber friend. Truly great video
Thank you and welcome aboard!
A nice video. Thanks. Collective unconscious or memories of previous lives? According to Buddhism, it is precisely the deposit-consciousness Alaya (what in the West is called the unconscious) that migrates from one life to another, continually being reborn. This dynamic explains the factors that led Jung to postulate the existence of the collective unconscious.
Dude, your job is amazing! thank you!
I really like your simple, elegant explanations. Thank you!
This is such a good video I had to watch it twice. Great work. Please make a follow up about the collective unconscious!
Wonderful work, thank you!
Thanks! Love your work my friend.
Thank you, I appreciate this!
Thank you for making and sharing this fascinating topic.
I just got my philosophy license degree academic article (thesis) graded. It's based on Nagarjuna's Madhyamaka Budhism and Jung's Conception of the psyche as the mirror of the world. I am very excited for this. Wonder if it'll touch on Hesse's Siddhartha
This is such a great production and such clear teaching such a treasure to find!
New to your channel. Became a fan and here to stay. Thank you for your videos.
Welcome and thank you for your support!
Just phenomenal. You have yourself another subscriber. I hope you continue your work.
i was born in a Buddhist family and i have been a very dogmatic Buddhist following the rules and chanting very seriously until i was mesmerized by a book named power of subconscious and conscious mind. i was so mesmerized that i wanted to look further in the conscious thing and it took me to the real gem i already had from the moment i was born , the Buddhism. Now i value Buddhism beyond dogma , beyond faith to logic and science. I love every bit of Buddhism.
NAMO BUDDHAYA.
This is an awesome lecture, I’ve listened to it several times. I have strong, all be it anecdotal, evidence for the existence of the collective unconscious. Years ago when I was doing a lot of flying I had a recurring dream that involved decision making in a very specific and dangerous situation, and the event dreamed though seemingly realistic was something that would never happen in waking life flying. However it was scary enough to make a strong impression every time I dreamed it, probably 3 or 4 times. Some years later I was reading a book written by a fellow with similar interests who was also a pilot, I was amazed when he described in great detail having the exact same dream. Clearly could not be a coincidence but there was no explaining it. A few years later after puzzling about the mystery I did some internet research and found a dream interpretation site that described the dream and claimed that it is known to be experienced by pilots. I don’t think there is any mechanism known to western science that can explain this observation. However, existence of some common yet occult information source that is accessible by the unconscious mind would allow this phenomenon to occur. I tell my children it’s a mistake to think we can see everything that’s going on in this world and I believe it. Great video, keep up the good work.
This channel and Eternalised are fantastic repositories of wisdom and thought-provoking content. Thank you for your work.
Great snapshotting on the insight’s of CJ and ancient’s on human and universal wisdoms --thank you for the concise interpretation and perception
Collective unconsciousness or better to say collective consciosness when One is awaken - it is Buddhahood, before gain Liberation we mostly see personal dreams, it is when we are still on Bodhisattva path, there is 10 grounds of Bodhisattva path. That is why there are Arhats in Buddhism, it's personal Liberation. Collective unconsciousness is like collective store from ous past lives in which we were connected with others, and not only as humans and not only on Earth. All the religions and cults are just another worlds in which mind is able to go. But all of that was born from Emptiness, Voidness. That is why in Buddhism we have Wisdom method which is represented as a Bell which Lamas hold during the pujas (rituals) in the left hands, but in the right hands They hold Vajra - which is Compassion, skilfull methods of kindness. Without Compassion no one cant become a Buddha. Wisdom + Compassion = Buddhahood. Wisdon (realization of Voidness) = level of Arhat, personal Liberation. Enlightment is possible for all the Arhats, but add compassion and only then a Buddha can be born.
This is why the main pray is: May I become a Buddha for the sake of others. Its activation of a compassionate method to help others to become Awaken too.
the urges of those to distract us into individuality is ultimately destructive, and is a type of infirmity on both sides. it's amazing the ability of the mind to create illusions, as if one could arise from nothing and be separate somehow. the mind is a tool and ability, we must use it correctly, and eventually unite east & west, despite our insistence on being greedy, hating, lustful fools. the more separate we are, the more dangerous, because only human contact keeps us right and sane.
Thankyou for such a splendid wander, good to watch something of content on you tube. the imagery was elegant and understated, your presentation engaging . Once again thank you
please keep producing more videos like this, i know the views are not very much on this video but this was 10/10

Wow, I have been wrestling with Jungian analysts and buddist priests for 40 years. It's been like trying to mix gasoline and water, just makes a separate mess. Didn't help That Jung wrote "yoga meditation is dangerous to the westerners ". It was a statement that has been taken out of context very badly. Your thoughts and presentation was brilliant. It brought together these dynamic systems in a way that honors both
Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed the video! I myself have struggled to reconcile the Jungian and Buddhist parts within me. I’ve heard Ken Wilber has done some progress towards this synthesis and his work is definitely something I aim to explore in the future.
Buddha and Jung both motivated by ending existential suffering and the tantric (vajrayana) school of Buddhism has significant parallels to (internal) alchemy.
@@john-ic5pz it does but I would go so far as to say that they have all ready developed the same technology much further
@@john-ic5pzwhat? Buddha said accept that life is suffering, not end it.

Jung and buddhism were destined to clash. What a beautiful and healing experience I am experiencing in mixing both phylophies to release and work with my self and shadow.
Indirectly shines a light on the origin of many physical maladies. One of the best videos on the internet. Period.
SagaDawa the holiest period of Tibetan Buddhism has had been observed at home, in monastery and temples and shrines for over a month .At such a moment I had a lucky day to listen to such a vedeo of rarest content. In relation to it , this is to say that Buddhism is not from sky or above but from ground, beneath the ground, unfathomable depth, multitude of layers, inner realm. That is why the Buddhist adherents are termed Nangpa, meaning insider, depth watcher. But we should not label Buddhists as Atheists. Occasionally I find Bhuddhists being addressed as Atheists. Let us tread the path that leads finally to Signlessness which is the first step, middle step and continuous step of Buddhism. Gratitude .
This is a beautiful comment... thank you!
This video is the best I've seen on the subject of buddhism and consciousness. It's too deep for my monkey mind to absorb. I'm going to watch it over and over again to piece together as much as my I can. A million thank you!
I,m a Buddhist since i born. Still learning day by day the way of life to improve it everyday.
Excellent video. Great summary. Enjoyed it very much. Thank you kindly
This is THE VERY BEST VIDEO I have chanced upon!! Thank you

Great recording would love to hear more on the archetypes, and the other thing that you reference about recordings fascinating
Great video, absolutely loved it.
Thank you for this. My interest in Buddhism and Zen has recently started growing after reading the book "Nisshitsu"
I want to learn more about more about Buddhism after that book.
Thank you for your contribution to our mind.
Eagerly waiting here for more videos from you
Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart and the bottom of our colectiveness 🌬🌀💗
cool words dude u really nailed it
I have been on the path of enlightenment once
the triggering sentence was "the universe is a game of mirrors"
and part of the excitement was to liberate the collective unconscious by turning the suffering of the outside world into love n brotherhood, no more strangers just destiny unfolding
The end of fragmentation of the self and end of separation between inner and outer
I remember feeling like I had wasted so much time trapped in the ego's selfish drives and fears and one of the feeling of the new drives was redemption which is interestingly also central to the christian ethos
The ego could only admire in awe the power of the true self as perfect as any natural event
In that mystical state of mind fear was gone and the energy of the unconscious was directed towards the light sort to speak
Anyways that's just a small part of my experience maybe I should make a video too one day but yea thanks for bringing that scent back to my memories
excellent and helpful video- thankyou for helping us all awaken.
How beautiful. Thank you so much.
Wow, GJ myman. 👌💪 Thx for that one. 🙏
Great video. Fantastic job my friend.
