    I'm a (marriage) therapist. Ego is the important final step because it's the step you need to take before the "self". Jung theorizes that a person needs to be in their Ego majority of their adult life. It helps if you think of Ego as interchangeable as you find want you like and dont like which can change as you grow. You can only reach your "Self" (or self actualization if you like Maslow) when you have formed a healthy Ego. Now the Ego can be unhealthy if you develop unhealthy defenses and habits as well, in which case you will not be able to reach your Self. In a way, you can think of Ego as the Journey and the Self as the destination. Jung believed in a healthy journey for the majority of your life before the destination.
    Usually, when one talks about Jung, you have to talk about Freud bc Jung was his student. Jung didn't agree with most of Freud's theories, so most of Jung's theories are in counter of Freud.
    I hope this helps!

    • @marygreer4036
      @marygreer4036 4 роки тому +39

      Katy Hart Yes, and individuation is a life-long journey. The ego is like the CEO so not a destination (Self) but rather an operating mechanism. It is the task of the ego to embrace and integrate the parts of the self including bringing the persona (outer/seen) and shadow (inner/unseen) into balance.

    • @lux3226

    • @marygreer4036
      @marygreer4036 4 роки тому +20

      Carrie Cole, Not to my way of thinking. Individuation is a process, not a destination. The Self is the destination/destiny, which paradoxically, is the whole being, there from the beginning. The ego is the conscious driver versus the shadow that could be seen as what unconsciously drives you - like when you realize you’ve taken the wrong road because you weren’t paying attention or were caught up in road rage. The persona is your social vehicle or mask and is not really dealt with in the outro although a case could be made for the Kingsman clothing or all the bright colors making up JHope’s sunny disposition. The ego must learn to embrace the inner shadow and integrate it with the best outer qualities put forth in the persona.

    • @pumpkinsandme6238

      The Ego suppresses the shadow because it doesn't want to acknowledge the dark aspects of the self. One cannot really trust the Ego.

      There's a little bit more than that, now that you put it that way, you're totally right, and it matches with what Namjoon said at the UN. Speak yourself. Like, you are your own person and the only one responsable of what you want to do and with your choices. Because, as kids we get denied or forced into things we don't want. Like, study certain career or practice something or stop practicing something and in the end, as adults, we can grow to regret stuff. And it's a really good message, both from the song and the speech, because as a young ARMY sometimes you have this problems, and as an adult ARMY you have regrets, and in the end, even with the things you didn't do, you are still you, and it's really something beautiful.

    As someone who is a graduate student in Human Development and Family Studies, your analysis seems pretty accurate to me.

    EGO: It refers to the psychic instance that encompasses a set of ideas, feelings and perceptions of a conscious type and with which we identify. Jung pointed out that knowledge of the ego-personality is often confused with self-understanding.
    Anyone who has any ego-consciousness at all takes it for granted that he knows himself. But the ego knows only its own contents, not the unconscious and its contents. People measure their self-knowledge by what the average person in their social environment knows of himself, but not by the real psychic facts which are for the most part hidden from them.
    EGO: Se refiere a la instancia psíquica que abarca un conjunto de ideas, sentimientos y percepciones de un tipo consciente y con el que nos identificamos. Jung señaló que el conocimiento de la personalidad del ego a menudo se confunde con la autocomprensión.
    Cualquiera que tenga alguna conciencia del ego da por sentado que se conoce a sí mismo. Pero el ego solo conoce sus propios contenidos, no el inconsciente y sus contenidos. Las personas miden su autoconocimiento por lo que la persona promedio en su entorno social sabe de sí mismo, pero no por los hechos psíquicos reales que están en su mayor parte ocultos para ellos.

It doesn’t have a link to use within the comment, AND I can’t copy/paste it into a translation app. I literally would have to take a pic & import it into a program that way. I know machine translation is crappy - but a lot of times I can get at least the gist of what is said. And I can’t learn all the languages in the world.

    Just two snippets of linguistic detail you may want to know:
    EGO is simply the (Ancient) Greek word meaning "I, me". (εγω ειμι = I am)
    ID is the Latin word meaning "it, this, that". It is not an abbreviation or acronym.
    Oh, and the first GOD shown is the Old Norse Óðinn (Odin, Wotan). His role is complex, but among other things, he is the god of poetry, magic and religious ecstasy. Not only did he give us the runic alphabet, but he also stole the mead of poetry from the giants, and brought it into the world of gods and humans. His two ravens are Huginn (Mind) and Muninn (Memory). All poetry is his domain, so he would definitely be the rappers' divinity, if anyone is! Old Norse poetry was not composed on paper, but was passed on orally, and meant to be proclaimed by the bards. There may have been a musical factor involved, but we actually know next to nothing about this ...

    Black Swan:
    You have to face and embrace your Shadow in order to love yourself
    Outro:Ego
    Once you become aware of all the parts of your soul, you can face every challenge and make everything your way

    6:22 i personally think that this part indicated how hobi used to question parts of himself , like a persona for armys , a shadow for himself etc as the lyrics in the part says “Oppressions all resolved (for the 7 years of hardwork part like he became successful so now his oppressions are all resolved)
    Into my heart come answers from my most trusted (this comes right before the one soul part)” i think this means that people who are really close to him or fans , they told him or made him realise that he need not question himself , that his soul , his smile , his hope , they’re all part of himself , that he’s a combination of everything and that’s okay

This just makes me admire BTS more again and again. I just can't grasp how these young men that work and practice around the clock have time to have such knowledge even with a genius among them. Surely RM isn't the only genius? It seems like several of them are if not all 7.

    This is brilliant. I’ve been fascinated by Carl Jung’s theory and concepts for awhile and BTS presented really well. It’s much deeper than the way you presented but BTS pretty much outlined the whole concept. Props to showing the clip of Dr. Jordan B. Peterson. I love the man and he truly changed my life. Please, if you want to know more about Jungian concepts, watch his lectures. He’s an expert on it and a brilliant man. Jordan Peterson really is an eye opening person with all his lectures on life, philosophy and psychology on his UA-cam channel. I was astonished and couldn’t stop laughing with joy with that clip of Peterson. So thank you for that and this video explaining it. Following BTS since 2015 on this journey was and is amazing.

    The vibe of this song is just so unique and fresh, while sincerely talking about their story.

    I think the fact that he goes the opposite way of the signs has meaning. Bc to know himself, to get *through the shadow* , after of course breaking through the persona,he has to face it first, to do so he has to look back into his life and himself(hence him driving the opposite way)... only then he can finally get to the ego. This whole journey is not easy so to do so he has to not only look inside himself but also look at his past and present, to understand himself.

We know how burden it can be at their current status dan situation. But when ego out then i read and watch many explanation including this, im feeling so happy. I think the major thing that keep them strong until now bc they keep writing song about thruself, loving yourself, never been afraid of losing, its okay to have no dream and just live life with the happiness. With that message, indirectly BTS also teach themselves about it and make who their today. So ya cant wait for this comeback and i hope DKDKTV will do album reaction again. Fighting DKDKTV!!
