i: It seems to me that I gave you a long time. Neither did I descend to you nor did I disturb your work. I lived in the light of day and did the work of the day. What did you do?”

The Cabiri: “We hauled things up, we built. We placed stone upon stone. Now you stand on solid ground.”

I: “I feel the ground more solid. I stretch upward.”

The Cabiri: “We forged a flashing / sword for you, with which you can cut the knot that entangles you.”

I: “I take the sword firmly in my hand. I lift it for the blow.”

The Cabiri: “We also place before you the devilish, skillfully twined knot that locks and seals you. Strike, only sharpness will cut through it.”

I: “Let me see it, the great knot, all wound round! Truly a masterpiece of inscrutable nature, a wily natural tangle of roots grown through one another! Only Mother Nature, the blind
weaver, could work such a tangle! A great snarled ball and a thousand small knots, all artfully tied, intertwined, truly; a human brain! Am I seeing straight? What did you do? You set my brain
before me! Did you give me a sword so that its flashing sharpness slices through my brain? What were you thinking of?”

The Cabiri: “The womb of nature wove the brain, the womb of the earth gave the iron. So the Mother gave you both: entanglement and severing.”

I: “Mysterious! Do you really want to make me the executioner of my own brain?”

The Cabiri: “It befits you as the master of the lower nature. Man is entangled in his brain and the sword is also given to him to cut through the entanglement.”

I: “What is the entanglement you speak of?”

The Cabiri: “The entanglement is your madness, the sword is
the overcoming of madness.”

I: “You offsprings of the devil, who told you that I am mad? You earth spirits, you roots of clay and excrement, are you not yourselves the root fibers of my brain? You polyp-snared rubbish, channels for juice knotted together, parasites upon parasites, all sucked up and deceived, secretly climbing up over one another by night, you deserve the flashing sharpness of my sword. You want to persuade me to cut through you? Are you contemplating self-destruction? How come nature gives birth to creatures that she herself wants to destroy?”

The Cabiri: “Do not hesitate. We need destruction since we ourselves are the entanglement. He who wishes to conquer new land / brings down the bridges behind him. Let us not exist
anymore. We are the thousand canals in which everything also flows back again into its origin.”

I: “Should I sever my own roots? Kill my own people, whose king I am? Should I make my own tree wither? You really are the sons of the devil.”

The Cabiri: “Strike, we are servants who want to die for their master.”

>> No.13608508

>>13608504
I: “What will happen if I strike?”

The Cabiri: “Then you will no longer be your brain, but will exist beyond your madness. Do you not see, your madness is your brain, the terrible entanglement and intertwining in the
connection of the roots, in the nets of canals, the confusion of fibers. Being engrossed in the brain makes you wild. Strike! He who finds the way rises up over his brain. You are a Tom Thumb
in the brain, beyond the brain you gain the form of a giant. We are surely sons of the devil, but did you not forge us out of the hot and dark? So we have something of its nature and of yours. The devil says that everything that exists is also worthy, since it perishes. As sons of the devil we want destruction, but as your creatures we want our own destruction. We want to rise up in you through death. We are roots that suck up from all sides. Now you have everything that you need, therefore chop us up, tear us out.”

I: “Will I m’iss you as servants? As a master I need slaves.”

The Cabiri: “The master serves himself”

1: “You ambiguous sons of the devil, these words are your undoing. May my sword strike you, this blow shall be valid forever.”

The Cabiri “Woe, woe! What we feared, what we desired, has come to pass.” ~Carl Jung, The Red Book, Page 321.

From a Jungian and Campbellian perspective calling the Red Book schizophrenic is not pejorative at all. Cambell says that the guided schizophrenic is what a shaman is, they're people who swim in the unconcious depths and pull mythology from it.

I came here to post this.

Hart is such a circumlocutory fag and I hate him. Funny stuff though:

>I have to admit that I have never been an admirer of Jung’s writings, even on those rare occasions when I have fleetingly spied what looked like a glimmer of insight among their caliginous fogs. The Red Book, however, makes his other works seem quite tolerable by comparison. It is an essentially silly exercise—sub-Nietzschean, sub-Blakean, sub-Swedenborgian—full of the kinds of garish symbolism and pompous antinomianism one expects from more adolescent minds. To anyone seeking fantastic journeys through strange oneiric realms, I would much more readily recommend Lewis Carroll’s Alice books, which are far better written, far better illustrated, and far more profound (Humpty Dumpty’s discourse on the meanings of words puts all of Philemon’s drearily portentous maunderings to shame).

>I am omitting many details, admittedly, but I doubt it matters. What is truly astonishing about this sort of psychologistic reductionism is its absolute inversion of the spiritual aspirations it is meant to explain. The Red Book manages to preserve the most ungainly aspects of ancient Gnosticism—its boringly rambling symbolic narratives, the pretensions of its spiritual patriciate, its self-absorption and ethical sterility—but none of its genuinely sympathetic religious qualities: the ennobling sorrow, the tragic sense of estrangement from the world, the delightful paranoia.

>To tell the truth, I find The Red Book a rather disconcerting document, not simply because it has the feel of an expression of arrested pubescence, lurching clumsily between the morbid and the hilarious in its attempts at profundity, but because I cannot shake the sense that it is somehow a real reflection of the spiritual situation of our times.

It was universally taken by Freud's company that Jung was his successor until he started hating on Jews (Freud was thought as a father figure and there was the whole oedipal divine drama people went on about between them). His take on religion was light years ahead of Freud, he structured the psyche and with more consequences, generally more fair to intuition and femininity.

No, you're not getting it. Civilization is inherently unnatural to our atavistic needs. We are lonely because we evolved for tribal life. We live in isolated little bubbles where we do not do what we were meant for. Go hunting and camping with friends and you will see. You feel a part of you awaken when hunting. Cars, houses, modern jobs, all are unnatural and poisonous to the psyche. We were made to share things tribally and have very few possessions. That is why people find minimalism addicting once they start. That is why communism makes sense to us in theory.

I've never met a Jungian who had made even a scrap of progress in developing any sense of purpose or self-satisfaction. They all still clearly suffer the brunt of their mental health issues.

99% of the time they become arrogant pricks who talk down to everybody else because "you just don't get it man" like aggressive hippies. No Jungian I know is willing to read widely and disavow the classics, usually in favour of boomer spirituality like astrology. My Jungian friend once said 'I'm bored of Plato, it's been done. We have a new age of philosophy." They are all cultists. Evidently Jung himself believed that he was a prophet and the reincarnation of Mithras with a superior understanding of psychology and spirituality so I guess it's just a Jungian tradition to be insufferable.

Plugging your emotional states or fantasies into fairy tale archetypes to then arrange your thoughts in a way to help you interpret them is an interesting idea, but it's also overly restrictive. There are a lot more to human beings than simply being a knight or hermit or some shit.The only advantage of Jungianism is creating beautiful art. Evidently, although Herman Hesse was writing the greatest novels of the 20th century while being Jung's buddy, he certainly wasn't fucking happy and his philosophy didn't help him recover from his breakdown.

Oh I beg your pardon, I didn't realise we were supposed to disregard any and all other philosophers that don't resemble a narcissistic variety of self help. 99% of Jungians I've met are also into crystal healing and astrology, so I guess I'm glad I'm not reading between the lines.

I have no clue what you're trying to say here. It's readily apparent from your last post that you don't understand Jung's ideas but you think you do. You unironically would have a better understanding of Jungian archetypes if you made a /lit/ thread asking to explain them or even just read a fucking Wikipedia article as opposed to whatever bullshit you're trying to spew. You seem to be more concerned with criticizing the Jungians you've anecdotally met rather than Jung's actual writings, which is a pretty retarded thing to do on a board that's focused on reading. I have no idea who you've met in your life and I'm not going to fucking argue with you about your own personal experiences you sperg.

I haven't seen that one but he seemed to liken himself to Jesus and Abraxas throughout the thing too. I'd like to say it follows from "we're all God, make contact with your God so you can become the true neighbor to the God in others" which somewhere about 1/3 in.

Why the fuck are you talking about the understanding you have through secondary and tertiary sources? This is a thread about a book written by an author on a literature board, what is your understanding of his works as he's written them?

But you probably don't even read so you didn't even recognize that as me trying to help you by giving you a way to fix all of the wrong bullshit you've spewed. Why even comment? Nobody cares that you have stupid friends who don't know how to read, people come here to talk about things THEY read THEMSELVES with other people who read it themselves.

Freud's work is a sidenote compared to Jung's. Jung literally sums up Freud in his theory of the Shadow.

Time to remind y'all.

Bertha Pappenheim (Anna O) - based and ballsy, made full recovery from her mental breakdown (by means of technique she invented essentially on her own) as evidenced by her latter career.

Freud - a scoundrel, who passed his fantasies for facts, and twisted facts to fit his biases. Established a cult as the means of earning coin.

Jung and Lacan - literal schizopheniacs.

Bertha sounds like she was doing psychoanalysis

"Recover" is the wrong word. Breakdowns are there for a reason. They are almost always symptom of something else not the problem in itself.

That said, after learning his dream analysis I've had wonderfully profound insights.

In my wildest one I was in an institution, a loony bin, an old folks home, a prison. In this place there were docile and lonesome old men. I was working as a reporter, doing a story on thr place. A tall woman of about 6' (I'm 6'2 mind you) was giving me a tour and she was the head mistress of the place. The men sat in locked rooms watching televison. The place was meant to be a safe haven from the dangers outside. I soon realized that it was actually a prison and I attempted an escape, running through the facility. I heard the mistress coming, searching for me. I hid in a room behind a door and waited for her, terrified as her presance was terrible and evil. She came into the room and I tackled her. We scuffled and then I soon ravaged her to her contentment. Then she thanked me and suddenly we were outside the jail and all of the inhabitants were at a long table and there were green trees and grassy pastures. Everyone celebrated and ate a feast of bbq and the mistress was happy that I had freed everyone.

At this time I had been dating a girl who was vulnerable enough that I caught feelings. Prior to this I hadn't let myself have any for any girl for years on end and this was an unconcious way of freeing myself from my safe haven and prison with my anima alone to keep me female company. That was 2 years ago and I'm still with thr girl.

Jung is much better as he has a much deeper understanding of humans. Jung thinks humans have atavistic depths. Freud thinks people are purely experience and have nothing more than what they have lived personally. Jung is more accurate and more profound.

The conviction you can imagine what you haven't lived is literally what leads to psychosis (inability to distinguish between fantasy and senses).

Hallucination differs from real deal in that at the end of the day you can describe hallucination (it being based on your past) perfectly, while the real deal you can not.
