So you're saying my desire to build a robot army so I can wipe out the human infestation and have the planet to myself is not only natural, but it's my purpose? Enlightenment achieved. Thanks!
@@commoditygames1410 You are getting it wrong. In the example you gave, it is not your dark side it is the unwillingness to face it; come to terms with it, rather than living it out destructively. In coming to terms with it you find out WHO you are; a human amongst humans, not WHAT you are a damaged human bent on destroying.
I'm watching this video during a strange personal time in my life. I've struggled and worked very hard over the past decade and gratefully now am in a comfortable and enviable position career wise. Yet, somewhere along the way I've been sapped of all my motivation, discipline, and sense of purpose. I've been depressed for several years now. I've been soul searching for a while already about how I can reignite the fire that fueled me to where I am now, because without it the rest of my life will be a mostly pointless, safe, selfish, and unsatisfying one. This video spoke to me on a deep level. It reminded of things I'd forgotten, put some things in new perspectives and generally has me excited to TAKE ACTION and challenge myself again. Some of my fears and projections have grown far more prominent than they have any right to be and have certainly been holding me back. No more. Thank you for the excellent narration and summary. I suppose I should thank Carl Jung as well for the effective philosophy. I don't know if this feeling is truly the beginning of a new chapter for me or yet another shortlived spark. But either way, I wanted to thank you for truly stirring something inside me and actually getting me to start even before finishing the video.
@owns9412 a feeling like the one you describe is always potentialy the beginning of a new chapter AND a shortlived spark both coexisting with one another; because they are both an idea in your mind (on the one hand a hope, and on the other one a fear). As I see it, the whole point of this video is not to choose between hopes and fears, but rather to embrace them both and, hopefully with a bit of courage, grace and luck, to go beyond. Just welcome the fear of being another failed attempt to reclaim your truest self while you try; welcome it even if it seems to have failed again indeed! That fear will never destroy the hope that accompanies it, because, as I am trying to convey in this comment, they are both the two sides of the same coin. Your mind.
My understanding of depression is that it is the body and mind’s way of forcing you to come to face and grips with aspects of yourself that you’ve been ignoring. Ask yourself what keeps coming up during your depression. Maybe you need to look at that from a different perspective and become a different person. Depression forces us to see truths we’d rather not see, but need to. Trust it.
strong discouragement as children from adults in my studies have shown an outcome similar to this sentiment. Whole parts of you seem forbidden and taboo when it was just a poor judgment call or a moment of weakness or ignorance that left a child sharply changed in seconds. This leads to a dogma and a person going through this would have a broken psyche in which they would have a overly strong sense of justice for those outside themselves in every catagory. That is why we see people only willing to help the underdog or the enemy etc and not themselves. Want to give away our resources to those outside out of an illogical sense of moral responsibility for strangers that they do not feel towards the culture or family they come from. Idealists seem to be especially vulnerable to this.
@ thanks fren. I'm slowly becoming proud of me too. Since posting I have made substantial gains working out. I feel neutral most days according to my mood tracker. Nice. Slowly but surely defeating my anhedonic depression. Now I'm going to focus on building a business of some kind. With some money in my pocket, I hope to be able to support my basic needs, then family somehow. Who knows, I might even go back to college. Here is to 2025. I hope you live.
By logic, I would get to know myself by looking outwards or inwards alike. I project my inner reality outwards and outside reality inwards. Meditation is about accepting EVERY thought, painful or pleasant and letting them go. We should live as we meditate. Is this getting complicated? Next comes Reincarnation and Soul evolution. If reincarnation is real, we most likely have been perpetrators and victims of the same actions. For each action, there is a counter-action and Karma. This is way too hard to figure out. Im gonna play some video games and leave this Video!
The shadow is not inherently bad but that is where the darkness does rest. The shadow is compromised of all the parts of your consciousness that don't fit your perceived place in society. They are mostly determined by others opinions and whatnot. You shove things back down to the shadows domain unconsciously most of the time in fear of offending or alienating yourself. A lot of pieces can be reintegrated to your surface self. Some should probably stay buried beneath the surface but acknowledged.
Sometimes is completely the opposite. Some people may show them to the world and to themself as tyrants, coldhearted MFs, and their shadows is a compassionate heart that it's a afraid of being hurt, and show it as it is.

@@mafiosogingeryou become concious of it and accept it as part of yourself (its a process). You then have the choice of controlling and/or embracing it depending on what it is.

@@lynnfisher3037 touché but a woman advising a man is like a man advising a woman. We are different. Neither is better. All we can do is to encourage each to be as we are, which when done without judgement becomes self awareness and thus the futility of issues such as narcissism can be reduced. And there is always something more to learn, especially about ourselves. Learning about others is an advantage but is also not our problem, but theirs
This video came in a time where I’m battling with my tendency to avoid embracing my fears, negative feelings and insecurities. It’s honestly like trying to climb up a tall mountain with no experience or knowledge. After listening to this, I feel like I’ve got a guided process to overcome my fears and insecurities. ❤
Always be proud that you tried. That hit hard to me. I've been trying really hard my life to get where I want. I've seen many failures and learnt alot. I have no regrets. It's the journey that matters and not the destination.😊
I'm here because I've been working on myself tremendously the past few years, definitely have experienced set backs and doubts. You are doing more than most will in their lifetimes, remember that. It pays off.
I was listening to this for the first time and the words were beginning to permeate my brain. And that’s when two people called me and distracted me from learning . That can’t be a coincidence
This video makes me want to think about my life and look in the "shadow" within myself. I'm not really sure if I want to acknowledge all of what hides in me but at least I try, it sure will be better than to sleep and slack off in rest of my miserable existence. Thank you for that educating video.
I have to admit, there is a lot of truth in Jung's philosophy. Looking back I can tell I at the time unknowingly used my envy as a motivator. This actually boosted my actions, made my life better. No, I didn't hurt the subject of my envy 😂 I just told myself - alright get your shit together this time and do something 😊 I used this quite a few times in my life. I'm thankful to all people who provoked the feeling of envy in me.
Basically, as mentioned, the meaning of life is not in whether we succeed but in what our former attempts along the way reveal about the self. Therefore, experience is meaningful because it allows us to improve ourselves and become more successful. Likewise, the meaning of each step in life is not to bring us to our destination, but to bring us ultimately closer.
These few moments of Jung's work were and are inspiring. It's good of you to bring his achievements and his thoughtful ways, of improving the human condition.
It actually sounds like the shadow is a result of social life. Seemingly, the more "imperial", oedipical, is a society, deeper and fuller is the shadow
perfect timing for me to watch this vid, I was laying on my couch about to phone scroll, and feeling too scared to do the things I really want to do, like write the book I know I want to, and the video inspired me to face my fears and start taking action.
I have a Big Problem with Anger! Why!? I suspect being severely abused by my mother, as a child, is the main reason. I also get frustrated easily. Unlike many people, I ALWAYS try to analyse my actions to control them in public. I live only with my pet cat to release my annoying “moods“ at home. Fear, for me, is a lost cause, as I cannot help myself to control fear based on bad experiences I suffered when I was young. I suffer from severe depression and will spend my life (along with several medictions) and therapy to handle my negative emotions. Know, however, that I am empathic and overly sensitive to others and their problems and always try to help ig I can!
Oh my, finally sumbuddy nutshells Jung. Thank you. Bookmarking this one. ❤ I somewhat understood from other videos. But not as clearly. I was a bit shy as a youth. I put my creative side in the closet until my life got to the point of disaster. At 62 I'm finally fully "coming out" of the closet as being a writer, because I have nothing left to lose. Not half-a$$Ed. Pedal to the metal. Now it may be that acting or stand up would be my ultimate shadow. As a writer can still be shy. But at least I'm in the right game. Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles could hear because they couldn't see. I think I became good at writing because I couldn't talk. So I think I'm on the right track. Writers are cowards. But as long as they own their cowardly lion nature it works, if I understand it correctly. Because somebody's got to do the writing.
Honesty with ourselves is the key. Often times we cover up how we operate in the unseen. We deny and do not admit to our lacks so we never learn. Actually, we oftentimes do not even KNOW. Be honest, be open and ready to receive from the creator. Your book may just open up for you, when you least expect it.
You are so amazing! Your strength, your love, your beauty and grace after being through what you have. Thank you for persevering so that you can be a voice and an advocate for those going through hell and giving them hope for transcending such heinous acts against them.
I had a dream where I descended into a basement with some people. I even remember saying " Yeah I don't really come down here that often " since that dream I have been trying to have more visits to the basement.
Not sure if it was a dream or I imagined it but I have a memory? of someone showing me (as a child) the basement. We had to be quiet so no one would see/hear us but saw what you could say “the powers that be” meeting around a huge table. I too go back there or think about it sometimes, and see what my mind would conjure up. Haha.
Everyday struggling with my fears, grudges, worries and anxieties, feeling most of the time alone. It's even considered as a better state of mind, when I can write it down, because in other moments even don't have enough energy to do this. I'm trying to free out my anger and other repressed emotions. It's still hard to accept that me who loses control and becomes emotional and dramatic, who's too weak to fight against a simple judgement of any irrelevant soul of this life, who denies myself because of others and easily hide all the true emotions just in order to let space for someone else, who even hardly notice my silent step back. I thought once I had wider acceptance but it's probably just an illusion of me nostalgic about a younger belle epoque. The best time to plant a tree might be ten years ago or now.
First time I came across this was The Persona series of games running on this idea, especially #4. Ever since, it has changed my perspective on life and myself, resonating hard with me. This lead me to Carl Jung and then I realized how legit this point of view and aspect of the mind was. Now I am a firm believer of balance in all things including the self. To have that balance, you have to accept and acknowledge every aspect of yourself without deceit, good and evil. The key is knowing when to allow each side to manifest in a given situation. When to be dangerous and when to be generous. Knowing how to control each side too not be too dominant and get out of control within the parameters of society to not end up in hell.
Throught out my life, I realize there's not coincidence. In the past years, I did shadow work, as a spirituality tools and a self-improving tools. But the last year was a crazy one. Went back to university and still working 40 hr a week, so I stop doing my shadow work. This video reafirm my desire to self-improvement and I take back my shadow work. Thank you. PS: Some people are astronaut, I am a psychonaut.
To feel whole, to control the subconscious is to say there is a need to understand it, manage, even control it. Agony, sorrow, genuine trauma to one's soul, most people leave these things on the sideline, suppressed into being ignored. Know thyself. As a whole. Leave nothing left to fester. This will be painful, and do not be fooled! You WILL start to feel/ wonder if you've lost yourself. You're just feeling the bad bits we've learned to be abrasive to. It's part of the whole. Once you get over it being a big deal, then you can come back to "what is", seeing a bigger picture because you understand life sincerely. End of rant, or whatever you'd call it.
Like Bob Marley says "You running, running , running away, but you can't run away from yourself". Most of these therapy thoughts sound like African proverbs.
I opened up this with a bit of concern, however it is helpful to know that we all experience these things, doubts mainly. I do delve into my dark side ,sometimes it's unavoidable because it's been triggered, sometimes it's intentional, also because it's been triggered. I don't fear, fear, I instinctively know that I'll get through, I have before but it's tiring and if I could avoid it, I'd take that route, so I still have some demons to negotiate with.😊
Doing something or doing nothing, the ending for us all is the same. We die one day from something, we forget everything we ever knew and experienced, we are forgotten one day in future eternity as if we never ever existed at all in the first place.
11:24 this is scaring me. It’s like the simulation is so based it forces you to do things yourself. But this begs the question; what the man says is kind of paradoxical; because why don’t people believe in true friends finding you and instead of yourself having to go find them? Does anyone not believe in fate and destiny and divinity anymore? Everything is so based. Thats the only way i can describe it. I mean, it sounds bad but why must a person do EVERYTHING their-self? This place is odd
The human ego narcissistically self-centeredly calls its superconsciousness the subconsciousness, Jung calls it the shadow. We are shadows, over 90% of our daily time guided by our superconsciousness. How to encourage the superconscious to cooperate with us? Martin Heidegger said that the artist is not a creator but a mediator. The Romanian sculptor Constantin Brâncuşi said that it is not difficult to create a masterpiece, it is difficult to enter a state where it happens by itself. A deeply emotionally motivated subconscious becomes a partner. I am an artist and I know these conditions . That state cannot be simulated because our subconscious reads from within~
@@DashVisionLLC Well duh yes. I treat my girlfriend with contempt and she doesn't walk away, instead she rides me like a bull. I'm using her body, and she's letting me.
My shadow showed me that I can scare tf out of people who cross me. I won't go about things in that way but I can certainly stand up for myself. All my life I have come across a version of a specific type of mean girl. I've never stood up to them. I saw a dark side to myself, I've embraced it.
AI Overview “To thine own self be true” is a famous quote from Hamlet by William Shakespeare that encourages people to be authentic and live by their own values: Something my mother told me when I was very young. And I mean 4 or 5 years old. Followed with ‘honesty is the best policy’ It doesn’t mean I haven’t been a horrible shit at times, more often than I care to admit.
This is making an assumption that I have the ability to find the small moment between the "Flash/Burn", of my anger, and the logical rational thinking of my mind. In which I could say to myself, "Now, do I too have this aggravating, exasperating, hateful behavior, which this person has chosen to exhibit towards me right now? Which us causing me to feel violently angry towards them to the point of doing them physical harm? And if so, why do I behave the same as they are? And why am I reacting so strongly, with rage, in this way? Perhaps this person is behaving this way because of similar reasons, I have. Which don't actually have anything to do with me. So, this person who is exibiting those behaviors towards me, personally, isn't actually angry at me. But, angry because if all those other unseen reasons I don't perceive. Then why would I become angry over something that isn't about me at all? Im just a convenient visible surrogate target they're aiming their pent up rage at. A stand in for the true causes of their anger. Thats all. And maybe Im reacting in an almost violent rage, because some of those arrows they're letting fly, are finding their way home. And theyre hitting the bullseye on the target, which is right over my heart. Not only do U feel that its unfair to be used as a surrogate target, with the blame for things I'm not responsible of doing, being firmly fixed on me this way. Being seen as someone who is the type of person who is soneone that's capable of commiting the kinds of behaviors which are seen as very shocking, betraying, unflattering, disgusting, frightening, dangerous, uncaring, immoral, and cruel and heartless types of hehaviors wounds me to my soul. The thought that someone could see me in this light. And be able to assign me the full hlame for every awful consequence that has come about, from someone horrible like this, who is guilty of inflicting these kinds of behaviors with their horrible actions, towards this vulnerable person, which has resulted in causing them physical harm, emotional angst and heartbreak, losing custody of their children, being evicted from their home, having their car repisses, going to jail onband mental trauma so severe it's responsible for damaging them psychologically. To the point of them becoming mentally dysfunctional in many aspects of their lives. and the ways a person like this is guilty of being my fault. but it hurts." And I'll be able to use that to get a grip on myself before my temper has pulled the pin and already tossed the " Oh no, you didn't! Ima eff you up, now, sucka! Die!"grenade. With all there being left to do now, is to put my head down, sheid my face and eyes, and wait for the explosion that's coming. Then once it does, and the shrapnel has settled, look to see if my explosion of violent anger, did the trick. Or will further acts of aggression, and use of stronger weapons and larger calibers of ordinance in my arsenal, be necessary? That assumtion I have the ability to use a momentary pause, or uave a pause at all, givint me time to decide to react differently from the way anger usually causes me to react. Which is like I described. Immediately, with no hesitation, in an aggressive offensive attack ( and I can be very, very offensive) that will not alliw you to be the one attacking me, and puttingbme in the weaker role of having to defend myself from attack. But in the stronger role of the one who attacks. As I sincerly attempt to take your head off, by use of either verbal means, or by physical ones, if that seems warranted. Whichever method becomes necessary to neutraluze you as a threat to me. I'll do whatever I have to do, to get you to shut the hell up, and get away from me. To stop you from trying to hurt me in the manner in which you are doing. Or, in the manner in which I believe you are doing. Or, simply from my experience, gleaned from past unpleasant painful attacks in which I found myself unprepared and fighting from a defensive position. Using defensive measures that weren't strong enough to protect myself from the attack. Those defensive walls were breached, and consequently, I got the piss stomped out of me. Sonetimes figuratively, which hurt more, than the times it's happened in a physical, literal sense. Which it has. And there's nothing that works bettter on me than experiencing failure and adverse, very unpleasant consequences of doing something a certain way to assure that I won't be doing that again. It's a case of classic aversion therapy. What people today would call PTSD, or worse, CPTSD. Because that one stretches from childhood and speaks directly to our basic survival. And it never goes away. Its a result of long term, and repeated abuse and neglect. Combined with all manner of emotional, mental, and psychological abuses and mentally conditioning fuckery. They might call it a reactive dysfunctional disorder, today as well. It really doesnt matter what uts called. What matters us that whoever is foolish enough not to watch their words and deeds, around others, taking care to be polite considerate, and non-threatening, is going to be called by the name "Mudd" and will need to call 911, for an ambulance and the police, shortly. If their behavior doesn't improve, rapidly. Or if they don't consider discretion to be the better part of valor, and concede the field by leaving. Because, if I even think you are behaving in such a manner, which is going to signal to me that you're about to try to attack me in an aggresive offensive move, like I've experienced before, then I won't give you that chance. I'll lope your head off, with no hesitation whatsoever, before you can even blink for a second time, if I catch you doing that. If you so much as raise your voice to me, or change the tone of voice you're using to address me with, to one I perceive as threatening and aggressive. If your tone of voice goes from one I perceive as interested, polite, and pleasant. To one I perceive as rude,challenging, condescending, superior, disparaging, disrespectful, contemptuous, belittling, or menacing, in any way. Or if my highly sensitive, finely tuned, intuitive ability picks up even a hint of an undertone of a threat, in your words, your mannerisms, your attitude, or your behavior and deeds, in general, then I will react accordingly. With startling speed and aggression, too. I won't give you a chance to hurt me. If you're in my life in a oersonal way, do this and you're libel to get a plate of hot food ir coffee ir pats water boiling on the stove, dumped in your lap, or slung in your face. Or I might just react by cold cocking you with any handy, hard and heavy implement, that's close at hand, like a skillet. Or I might throw a can of unopened food at your head, and hit my target before you can move. With a swiftness and a deadly aim, that's astonishing to see. Or so it's been reported to me, by others who've seen me do it. And I'll do that, if you are someone who likes to screw with people, who thinks the polite rules of society don't apply to your interactions with others. And you are entitled enough to believe you can get away with talking to others and treating others, any way you want. Thinking there's nothing anyone can do about it. Well, think again. Because that's where you're wrong. If you're someone like this and you so much as twitch in my direction, then be warned. This is what will happen to your narcissistic ass after you do. That's as sure of a thing as the sun rising in the morning, from the East. It's my solemn vow, so help me god. You don't want to be that person. This is a fight you will not be allowed to win. I will see it as a fight to the death, in a kill or be killed type of scenario. You won't be able to deescalate or disengage from the situation, once things start rolling. And I can't, because if we're fighting, it means there is some reason I felt like I couldn't disengage. A serious reason I didn't choose to take the first opportunity I saw for flight, and leave the situation. Because most people will choose flight, over a fight, if they can. Always leave people a way out. If you do, they'll take it. But, if you cut off all escape, and they' feel like they're trapped, with no way out, where they can run, well, they'll come out fighting like a crazed wolverine on PCP, seriously intent on killing you. This is for survival, remember? Pride goes right out the window, here. Running away from something you're afraid of, that you believe threatens your life, isn't seen as shameful cowardice here. Instead, it's prudent, common sense, that's been God given, for you to react in a way that will preserve your life, for the continuation of the species. And it becomes all about "Live, to fight another day". The fight part is optional. To live, is mandatory. ee wny way but except resirting to the Flight part of Fight or Flight. Or rather, do. Be that person. Try me and see. You will. No matter what I say. You'll just have to f*ck around and find out, for yourself, won't you? You can't help it, tho. It's a compulsion that you probably don't even know you have, that you're powerkess over. Just as I'm powerless against the compulsion to stop you from hurting me, or anyone else. I also seem to be powerless over my righteous fury, but I'm okay with that. It allows me to stop you by whatever methods I find to be necessary. And the coolest part is that I don't even feel bad about whatever it was I had to do, afterwards. It's like having an awesome Super Power, against evil. So by all means, go ahead punk. Do it. Yield to your compulsion of needing to hurt people, and take from them. And I'll yield to my compulsion to stop you. And together, we'll make each other's day. See that!? Who says people don't work together, anymore!?
there's a positive shadow too..the strong qualities we have that we deny or don't express. I love the words of Socrates: an unexamined life is not worth living.. harsh but is it true?
Human Design, Gene Keys and the Spectrum I-ching are all means of studying and understanding our shadow (unconscious) side and the latter, run by Nathalie Strassburg, offers a book and a course on self-realisation.
Also iaknowledge the hindrance from evil or revengeful spirits that block some parts of the body like jaw, head, liver etc. They should be liberated with care and understanding, which means that most important is work on our emotions, thoughts and character.
Thinking in term of an influential man or woman in separation is a divided mind and further a divided population which will be their own downfall. Think of it as a whole not as a separation. Then we will rule the world and beyond.
I’ve learned something different as well. You learn a lot of truth about yourself when you find out how people feel and think about you truthfully, both superficially as in depth. Because there are things that you can learn about yourself on your own, but other things that can only be learned as feedback from the environment. The real challenge is interpretation, and learning how to deal with both positive and negative aspects about yourself, whether you like them or not and whether you can do something about it or not. Our brain is great at hiding from truths we once knew but chose to forget. From fear of not being accepted as good enough. Looking that fear in the eye, accepting the things we can do nothing about, and overcoming the things we can by finding our real value is how we become strong. Hiding from wanting to accept our weaknesses is what makes us lose grip on connection with reality and translates in many side effects.
I think this is why we all need a partner. They serve as a reflection for us. We can see our own values, weakness, desires through their eyes more clearly than our own.
Is the shadow ‘latent’ - like ‘inborn’ - like we have these all these traits , things, desires to BEGIN With - OR are they things, traits, and desires ‘conditioned’ OUT of us ? Like ‘Repressed or even suppressed ? 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️. Here’s the thing I’m trying to say - are we ‘retrieving something or uncovering something ? I hope somebody understands that.
I helped a Brazilian lady to learn English, but now I'm a custodian. I have a degree but I'm average IQ with learning disabilities (Inattentive ADHD/ Dyscalculia) and emotional issues. I'm also very clumsy.

As I see it, the whole point of this video is not to choose between hopes and fears, but rather to embrace them both and, hopefully with a bit of courage, grace and luck, to go beyond.
Just welcome the fear of being another failed attempt to reclaim your truest self while you try; welcome it even if it seems to have failed again indeed! That fear will never destroy the hope that accompanies it, because, as I am trying to convey in this comment, they are both the two sides of the same coin. Your mind.

My understanding of depression is that it is the body and mind’s way of forcing you to come to face and grips with aspects of yourself that you’ve been ignoring. Ask yourself what keeps coming up during your depression. Maybe you need to look at that from a different perspective and become a different person. Depression forces us to see truths we’d rather not see, but need to. Trust it.
This kinda ties into our relationship with space, as we are endlessly wondering about what lies above us, rather than exploring what's inside of us.

@ thanks fren. I'm slowly becoming proud of me too. Since posting I have made substantial gains working out. I feel neutral most days according to my mood tracker. Nice. Slowly but surely defeating my anhedonic depression. Now I'm going to focus on building a business of some kind. With some money in my pocket, I hope to be able to support my basic needs, then family somehow. Who knows, I might even go back to college. Here is to 2025. I hope you live.
By logic, I would get to know myself by looking outwards or inwards alike. I project my inner reality outwards and outside reality inwards. Meditation is about accepting EVERY thought, painful or pleasant and letting them go. We should live as we meditate. Is this getting complicated?
Next comes Reincarnation and Soul evolution. If reincarnation is real, we most likely have been perpetrators and victims of the same actions. For each action, there is a counter-action and Karma. This is way too hard to figure out. Im gonna play some video games and leave this Video!
The shadow isn't necessarily bad. It's just parts of yourself that you don't use, because those parts don't fit your self-image.
Agreed ❤
The shadow is not inherently bad but that is where the darkness does rest. The shadow is compromised of all the parts of your consciousness that don't fit your perceived place in society. They are mostly determined by others opinions and whatnot. You shove things back down to the shadows domain unconsciously most of the time in fear of offending or alienating yourself. A lot of pieces can be reintegrated to your surface self. Some should probably stay buried beneath the surface but acknowledged.
its bad..its bad..stop pretending you don't have a bad side...be proud of it..just don't let it land you a life sentence.
Sometimes is completely the opposite. Some people may show them to the world and to themself as tyrants, coldhearted MFs, and their shadows is a compassionate heart that it's a afraid of being hurt, and show it as it is.
@@diegomirelesthat’s so true.
Carl Jung has helped me to recreate myself, my life will never be the same. 💜
How to integrate the shadow self ? Where can i get this information i watched several videos but they are not explaining in detail
I’ve heard him being called “one of the greatest healers of all time”
Obviously that’s subjective. But in my experience that’s true
@@mafiosoginger Here's another good one, this one will blow your mind: Carl Jung - How to Find Your Soul (written by Eternalised) - ua-cam.com/video/Q5J9i97Cyc8/v-deo.html
@@mafiosogingeryou become concious of it and accept it as part of yourself (its a process). You then have the choice of controlling and/or embracing it depending on what it is.
@@bwaldsch23 Gonna watch now, cheers!
fucked up in the law firm and felt down. this video helps get me up in reminding me of what i am capable of. thank you for posting this good sir!
Whole sir not good sir.
Things happen and you will get thru it! You got this ❤
Courage isn't the absence of fear, it's the acknowledgement of fear yet the willingness to move on. Great video if I had more time I would leave a detailed comment
You have all the time alloted to you.
@@lynnfisher3037 touché but a woman advising a man is like a man advising a woman. We are different. Neither is better. All we can do is to encourage each to be as we are, which when done without judgement becomes self awareness and thus the futility of issues such as narcissism can be reduced. And there is always something more to learn, especially about ourselves. Learning about others is an advantage but is also not our problem, but theirs
Hello darkness my old friend...
Brilliant
Shadow work is an ongoing never ending process that leads to a happier more productive life thanks ☺️
Nope it's a trap

This video came in a time where I’m battling with my tendency to avoid embracing my fears, negative feelings and insecurities. It’s honestly like trying to climb up a tall mountain with no experience or knowledge.
After listening to this, I feel like I’ve got a guided process to overcome my fears and insecurities. ❤
Always be proud that you tried. That hit hard to me. I've been trying really hard my life to get where I want. I've seen many failures and learnt alot. I have no regrets. It's the journey that matters and not the destination.😊
I'm here because I've been working on myself tremendously the past few years, definitely have experienced set backs and doubts. You are doing more than most will in their lifetimes, remember that. It pays off.
I was listening to this for the first time and the words were beginning to permeate my brain. And that’s when two people called me and distracted me from learning . That can’t be a coincidence
It literally could just be a coincidence. Don't fall for mental traps looking for meaning where there is none.
@@Hugorshillhe's Spot On though 😮
This video makes me want to think about my life and look in the "shadow" within myself.
I'm not really sure if I want to acknowledge all of what hides in me but at least I try, it sure will be better than to sleep and slack off in rest of my miserable existence.
Thank you for that educating video.
I have to admit, there is a lot of truth in Jung's philosophy. Looking back I can tell I at the time unknowingly used my envy as a motivator. This actually boosted my actions, made my life better. No, I didn't hurt the subject of my envy 😂 I just told myself - alright get your shit together this time and do something 😊 I used this quite a few times in my life. I'm thankful to all people who provoked the feeling of envy in me.
the best and most clear video i watched on Jung so far. Thank you
1000 times more useful than standard self-dev advice
I have watched a couple of carl young videos because I know he had good things to say. This is the first one I found valuable.
Basically, as mentioned, the meaning of life is not in whether we succeed but in what our former attempts along the way reveal about the self. Therefore, experience is meaningful because it allows us to improve ourselves and become more successful. Likewise, the meaning of each step in life is not to bring us to our destination, but to bring us ultimately closer.
Thanks!
Philosophies for Life, Your videos always make me happy, so I subscribed!
These few moments of Jung's work were and are inspiring. It's good of you to bring his achievements and his thoughtful ways, of improving the human condition.
What a great presentation. Thanks for taking time to make this video!
Law of Polarity is extraordinary important for our psychological evolution.
"I am the shadow, the true self."
- Awakening your persona in Persona 4 Golden.
This is the basis for the Persona games. Thank you for this video. :)
Your teachings have been a great source of comfort and clarity.
It actually sounds like the shadow is a result of social life. Seemingly, the more "imperial", oedipical, is a society, deeper and fuller is the shadow
I really wish I had found this video a few months ago but I move forward with the lessons I learned.
same. cost me my relationship
perfect timing for me to watch this vid, I was laying on my couch about to phone scroll, and feeling too scared to do the things I really want to do, like write the book I know I want to, and the video inspired me to face my fears and start taking action.
I have a Big Problem with Anger! Why!? I suspect being severely abused by my mother, as a child, is the main reason. I also get frustrated easily. Unlike many people, I ALWAYS try to analyse my actions to control them in public. I live only with my pet cat to release my annoying “moods“ at home. Fear, for me, is a lost cause, as I cannot help myself to control fear based on bad experiences I suffered when I was young. I suffer from severe depression and will spend my life (along with several medictions) and therapy to handle my negative emotions. Know, however, that I am empathic and overly sensitive to others and their problems and always try to help ig I can!
Oh my, finally sumbuddy nutshells Jung. Thank you. Bookmarking this one. ❤ I somewhat understood from other videos. But not as clearly. I was a bit shy as a youth. I put my creative side in the closet until my life got to the point of disaster. At 62 I'm finally fully "coming out" of the closet as being a writer, because I have nothing left to lose. Not half-a$$Ed. Pedal to the metal. Now it may be that acting or stand up would be my ultimate shadow. As a writer can still be shy. But at least I'm in the right game. Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles could hear because they couldn't see. I think I became good at writing because I couldn't talk. So I think I'm on the right track. Writers are cowards. But as long as they own their cowardly lion nature it works, if I understand it correctly. Because somebody's got to do the writing.
Honesty with ourselves is the key. Often times we cover up how we operate in the unseen. We deny and do not admit to our lacks so we never learn. Actually, we oftentimes do not even KNOW.
Be honest, be open and ready to receive from the creator. Your book may just open up for you, when you least expect it.
This video is going to change my life; as soon as I take action on the things that it taught me 😅❤
You are so amazing! Your strength, your love, your beauty and grace after being through what you have. Thank you for persevering so that you can be a voice and an advocate for those going through hell and giving them hope for transcending such heinous acts against them.
This is helpful. IFS therapy is top notch with this stuff
This is one of the clearest videos on this ! Thanks
This gives me an amazing perspective to help look at things differently!!
Thank you immensely
Thank you for another great video. It puts organized words on the work I am doing
Thanks a lot! This was again a great eye-opener.
Ignoring traits won't make them go away.
Wow it's explained so simply and clearly. Very cool ideas from Carl Jung, thanks!
Amazing work vulgarising this knowledge. Much appreciated ❤
I had a dream where I descended into a basement with some people. I even remember saying " Yeah I don't really come down here that often " since that dream I have been trying to have more visits to the basement.
Good luck in visiting the basement
Walk through the Valley of the shadow of death
@@SoberManiacB-b4s and realise there's nothing left..
Not sure if it was a dream or I imagined it but I have a memory? of someone showing me (as a child) the basement. We had to be quiet so no one would see/hear us but saw what you could say “the powers that be” meeting around a huge table. I too go back there or think about it sometimes, and see what my mind would conjure up. Haha.
Everyday struggling with my fears, grudges, worries and anxieties, feeling most of the time alone. It's even considered as a better state of mind, when I can write it down, because in other moments even don't have enough energy to do this. I'm trying to free out my anger and other repressed emotions. It's still hard to accept that me who loses control and becomes emotional and dramatic, who's too weak to fight against a simple judgement of any irrelevant soul of this life, who denies myself because of others and easily hide all the true emotions just in order to let space for someone else, who even hardly notice my silent step back. I thought once I had wider acceptance but it's probably just an illusion of me nostalgic about a younger belle epoque. The best time to plant a tree might be ten years ago or now.
Thank you for this Video. The Contest has meaningful Substance
First time I came across this was The Persona series of games running on this idea, especially #4.
Ever since, it has changed my perspective on life and myself, resonating hard with me. This lead me to Carl Jung and then I realized how legit this point of view and aspect of the mind was.
Now I am a firm believer of balance in all things including the self. To have that balance, you have to accept and acknowledge every aspect of yourself without deceit, good and evil.
The key is knowing when to allow each side to manifest in a given situation. When to be dangerous and when to be generous. Knowing how to control each side too not be too dominant and get out of control within the parameters of society to not end up in hell.
This video came at the perfect time! Thank you for releasing such this inspiring content🙏🏽
Never heard of him, but I've believed the same. Who you become is what truly matters.
Throught out my life, I realize there's not coincidence. In the past years, I did shadow work, as a spirituality tools and a self-improving tools. But the last year was a crazy one. Went back to university and still working 40 hr a week, so I stop doing my shadow work. This video reafirm my desire to self-improvement and I take back my shadow work. Thank you. PS: Some people are astronaut, I am a psychonaut.
What I like to do is I look at the situation from both angles. Even putting in consideration how they were raised up can change an outcome.
To feel whole, to control the subconscious is to say there is a need to understand it, manage, even control it.
Agony, sorrow, genuine trauma to one's soul, most people leave these things on the sideline, suppressed into being ignored.
Know thyself.
As a whole.
Leave nothing left to fester.
This will be painful, and do not be fooled! You WILL start to feel/ wonder if you've lost yourself. You're just feeling the bad bits we've learned to be abrasive to. It's part of the whole. Once you get over it being a big deal, then you can come back to "what is", seeing a bigger picture because you understand life sincerely.
End of rant, or whatever you'd call it.
Life is falling down 7 times and getting up 8 🙏☯️🌹
Like Bob Marley says "You running, running , running away, but you can't run away from yourself". Most of these therapy thoughts sound like African proverbs.
Thank you so much for this video. I loved it
I opened up this with a bit of concern, however it is helpful to know that we all experience these things, doubts mainly. I do delve into my dark side ,sometimes it's unavoidable because it's been triggered, sometimes it's intentional, also because it's been triggered. I don't fear, fear, I instinctively know that I'll get through, I have before but it's tiring and if I could avoid it, I'd take that route, so I still have some demons to negotiate with.😊
Very powerfull toughts. Good job !
Doing something or doing nothing, the ending for us all is the same.
We die one day from something, we forget everything we ever knew and experienced, we are forgotten one day in future eternity as if we never ever existed at all in the first place.
Thank you so much. This is powerful. Love you 🙏
11:24 this is scaring me. It’s like the simulation is so based it forces you to do things yourself. But this begs the question; what the man says is kind of paradoxical; because why don’t people believe in true friends finding you and instead of yourself having to go find them? Does anyone not believe in fate and destiny and divinity anymore? Everything is so based. Thats the only way i can describe it. I mean, it sounds bad but why must a person do EVERYTHING their-self? This place is odd
Whatever my life's purpose is I hope I don't do it just to piss off who ever sent me here.
Thank you!!! Al this information is of alot of value for me.
I appreciate the fact that I appreciate this video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The human ego narcissistically self-centeredly calls its superconsciousness the subconsciousness, Jung calls it the shadow. We are shadows, over 90% of our daily time guided by our superconsciousness. How to encourage the superconscious to cooperate with us? Martin Heidegger said that the artist is not a creator but a mediator. The Romanian sculptor Constantin Brâncuşi said that it is not difficult to create a masterpiece, it is difficult to enter a state where it happens by itself. A deeply emotionally motivated subconscious becomes a partner. I am an artist and I know these conditions . That state cannot be simulated because our subconscious reads from within~
You have to understand the darkness in order to know the light.

@@DashVisionLLC Well duh yes. I treat my girlfriend with contempt and she doesn't walk away, instead she rides me like a bull. I'm using her body, and she's letting me.
From here 2:54 is about how to learn about myself & progress my life goals.
My shadow showed me that I can scare tf out of people who cross me.
I won't go about things in that way but I can certainly stand up for myself.
All my life I have come across a version of a specific type of mean girl. I've never stood up to them. I saw a dark side to myself, I've embraced it.
This is practically helpful. Thank you.
A perfect life is not possible because it requires the cooperation of a lot of people, it is not enough that we alone do everything for it.
The voice must be generated . . . it is so off and the emphasis so all over the place that I can't listen to this any more
You can turn off the volume you know and just read
Like a silent movie!
Reminds me of Allen from smiling friends.
actual human VO FTW
Absolutely until you understand yourself and inner-self then it will be clear as what paths you meant to take
This was surprisingly resonant with cognitive behavioural therapy.
Many kids not just adults can benefit from this type of videos.
AI Overview
“To thine own self be true” is a famous quote from Hamlet by William Shakespeare that encourages people to be authentic and live by their own values:
Something my mother told me when I was very young. And I mean 4 or 5 years old. Followed with ‘honesty is the best policy’
It doesn’t mean I haven’t been a horrible shit at times, more often than I care to admit.
Wow. That was fantastic.
Me is not what you want me to be, me is not what you are.
This is making an assumption that I have the ability to find the small moment between the "Flash/Burn", of my anger, and the logical rational thinking of my mind. In which I could say to myself, "Now, do I too have this aggravating, exasperating, hateful behavior, which this person has chosen to exhibit towards me right now? Which us causing me to feel violently angry towards them to the point of doing them physical harm? And if so, why do I behave the same as they are? And why am I reacting so strongly, with rage, in this way? Perhaps this person is behaving this way because of similar reasons, I have. Which don't actually have anything to do with me. So, this person who is exibiting those behaviors towards me, personally, isn't actually angry at me. But, angry because if all those other unseen reasons I don't perceive. Then why would I become angry over something that isn't about me at all? Im just a convenient visible surrogate target they're aiming their pent up rage at. A stand in for the true causes of their anger. Thats all. And maybe Im reacting in an almost violent rage, because some of those arrows they're letting fly, are finding their way home. And theyre hitting the bullseye on the target, which is right over my heart. Not only do U feel that its unfair to be used as a surrogate target, with the blame for things I'm not responsible of doing, being firmly fixed on me this way. Being seen as someone who is the type of person who is soneone that's capable of commiting the kinds of behaviors which are seen as very shocking, betraying, unflattering, disgusting, frightening, dangerous, uncaring, immoral, and cruel and heartless types of hehaviors wounds me to my soul. The thought that someone could see me in this light. And be able to assign me the full hlame for every awful consequence that has come about, from someone horrible like this, who is guilty of inflicting these kinds of behaviors with their horrible actions, towards this vulnerable person, which has resulted in causing them physical harm, emotional angst and heartbreak, losing custody of their children, being evicted from their home, having their car repisses, going to jail onband mental trauma so severe it's responsible for damaging them psychologically. To the point of them becoming mentally dysfunctional in many aspects of their lives. and the ways a person like this is guilty of being my fault. but it hurts." And I'll be able to use that to get a grip on myself before my temper has pulled the pin and already tossed the " Oh no, you didn't! Ima eff you up, now, sucka! Die!"grenade. With all there being left to do now, is to put my head down, sheid my face and eyes, and wait for the explosion that's coming. Then once it does, and the shrapnel has settled, look to see if my explosion of violent anger, did the trick. Or will further acts of aggression, and use of stronger weapons and larger calibers of ordinance in my arsenal, be necessary? That assumtion I have the ability to use a momentary pause, or uave a pause at all, givint me time to decide to react differently from the way anger usually causes me to react. Which is like I described. Immediately, with no hesitation, in an aggressive offensive attack ( and I can be very, very offensive) that will not alliw you to be the one attacking me, and puttingbme in the weaker role of having to defend myself from attack. But in the stronger role of the one who attacks. As I sincerly attempt to take your head off, by use of either verbal means, or by physical ones, if that seems warranted. Whichever method becomes necessary to neutraluze you as a threat to me. I'll do whatever I have to do, to get you to shut the hell up, and get away from me. To stop you from trying to hurt me in the manner in which you are doing. Or, in the manner in which I believe you are doing. Or, simply from my experience, gleaned from past unpleasant painful attacks in which I found myself unprepared and fighting from a defensive position. Using defensive measures that weren't strong enough to protect myself from the attack. Those defensive walls were breached, and consequently, I got the piss stomped out of me. Sonetimes figuratively, which hurt more, than the times it's happened in a physical, literal sense. Which it has. And there's nothing that works bettter on me than experiencing failure and adverse, very unpleasant consequences of doing something a certain way to assure that I won't be doing that again. It's a case of classic aversion therapy. What people today would call PTSD, or worse, CPTSD. Because that one stretches from childhood and speaks directly to our basic survival. And it never goes away. Its a result of long term, and repeated abuse and neglect. Combined with all manner of emotional, mental, and psychological abuses and mentally conditioning fuckery. They might call it a reactive dysfunctional disorder, today as well. It really doesnt matter what uts called. What matters us that whoever is foolish enough not to watch their words and deeds, around others, taking care to be polite considerate, and non-threatening, is going to be called by the name "Mudd" and will need to call 911, for an ambulance and the police, shortly. If their behavior doesn't improve, rapidly. Or if they don't consider discretion to be the better part of valor, and concede the field by leaving. Because, if I even think you are behaving in such a manner, which is going to signal to me that you're about to try to attack me in an aggresive offensive move, like I've experienced before, then I won't give you that chance. I'll lope your head off, with no hesitation whatsoever, before you can even blink for a second time, if I catch you doing that. If you so much as raise your voice to me, or change the tone of voice you're using to address me with, to one I perceive as threatening and aggressive. If your tone of voice goes from one I perceive as interested, polite, and pleasant. To one I perceive as rude,challenging, condescending, superior, disparaging, disrespectful, contemptuous, belittling, or menacing, in any way. Or if my highly sensitive, finely tuned, intuitive ability picks up even a hint of an undertone of a threat, in your words, your mannerisms, your attitude, or your behavior and deeds, in general, then I will react accordingly. With startling speed and aggression, too. I won't give you a chance to hurt me. If you're in my life in a oersonal way, do this and you're libel to get a plate of hot food ir coffee ir pats water boiling on the stove, dumped in your lap, or slung in your face. Or I might just react by cold cocking you with any handy, hard and heavy implement, that's close at hand, like a skillet. Or I might throw a can of unopened food at your head, and hit my target before you can move. With a swiftness and a deadly aim, that's astonishing to see. Or so it's been reported to me, by others who've seen me do it. And I'll do that, if you are someone who likes to screw with people, who thinks the polite rules of society don't apply to your interactions with others. And you are entitled enough to believe you can get away with talking to others and treating others, any way you want. Thinking there's nothing anyone can do about it. Well, think again. Because that's where you're wrong. If you're someone like this and you so much as twitch in my direction, then be warned. This is what will happen to your narcissistic ass after you do. That's as sure of a thing as the sun rising in the morning, from the East. It's my solemn vow, so help me god. You don't want to be that person. This is a fight you will not be allowed to win. I will see it as a fight to the death, in a kill or be killed type of scenario. You won't be able to deescalate or disengage from the situation, once things start rolling. And I can't, because if we're fighting, it means there is some reason I felt like I couldn't disengage. A serious reason I didn't choose to take the first opportunity I saw for flight, and leave the situation. Because most people will choose flight, over a fight, if they can. Always leave people a way out. If you do, they'll take it. But, if you cut off all escape, and they' feel like they're trapped, with no way out, where they can run, well, they'll come out fighting like a crazed wolverine on PCP, seriously intent on killing you. This is for survival, remember? Pride goes right out the window, here. Running away from something you're afraid of, that you believe threatens your life, isn't seen as shameful cowardice here. Instead, it's prudent, common sense, that's been God given, for you to react in a way that will preserve your life, for the continuation of the species. And it becomes all about "Live, to fight another day". The fight part is optional. To live, is mandatory. ee wny way but except resirting to the Flight part of Fight or Flight. Or rather, do. Be that person. Try me and see. You will. No matter what I say. You'll just have to f*ck around and find out, for yourself, won't you? You can't help it, tho. It's a compulsion that you probably don't even know you have, that you're powerkess over. Just as I'm powerless against the compulsion to stop you from hurting me, or anyone else. I also seem to be powerless over my righteous fury, but I'm okay with that. It allows me to stop you by whatever methods I find to be necessary. And the coolest part is that I don't even feel bad about whatever it was I had to do, afterwards. It's like having an awesome Super Power, against evil. So by all means, go ahead punk. Do it. Yield to your compulsion of needing to hurt people, and take from them. And I'll yield to my compulsion to stop you. And together, we'll make each other's day. See that!? Who says people don't work together, anymore!?

there's a positive shadow too..the strong qualities we have that we deny or don't express. I love the words of Socrates: an unexamined life is not worth living.. harsh but is it true?
My problem is my shadow is entirely dominating my life, i love my shadow so much❤ this is the best part of me
Human Design, Gene Keys and the Spectrum I-ching are all means of studying and understanding our shadow (unconscious) side and the latter, run by Nathalie Strassburg, offers a book and a course on self-realisation.

0:39 where are the influential women and mothers?

Mother Terrasa and Rosa Parks
Yes like Mrs. Jung who was busy getting shit done while hubby was arsing around thinking about shadows.
Thinking in term of an influential man or woman in separation is a divided mind and further a divided population which will be their own downfall. Think of it as a whole not as a separation. Then we will rule the world and beyond.
is that important for the purpose of this video?
I’ve learned something different as well. You learn a lot of truth about yourself when you find out how people feel and think about you truthfully, both superficially as in depth. Because there are things that you can learn about yourself on your own, but other things that can only be learned as feedback from the environment. The real challenge is interpretation, and learning how to deal with both positive and negative aspects about yourself, whether you like them or not and whether you can do something about it or not. Our brain is great at hiding from truths we once knew but chose to forget. From fear of not being accepted as good enough. Looking that fear in the eye, accepting the things we can do nothing about, and overcoming the things we can by finding our real value is how we become strong. Hiding from wanting to accept our weaknesses is what makes us lose grip on connection with reality and translates in many side effects.
I think this is why we all need a partner. They serve as a reflection for us. We can see our own values, weakness, desires through their eyes more clearly than our own.
Incredible video!
Is the shadow ‘latent’ - like ‘inborn’ - like we have these all these traits , things, desires to BEGIN With - OR are they things, traits, and desires ‘conditioned’ OUT of us ? Like ‘Repressed or even suppressed ? 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️. Here’s the thing I’m trying to say - are we ‘retrieving something or uncovering something ? I hope somebody understands that.
