Endgame of what? His writing is not super clear (he would admit this but argue it's necessary) and there is still a lot that we don't understand even if he's right about everything

[Anonymous No.20800159]

>>20800108
Endgame?? He's the opposite. As entry level as it gets.

[Anonymous No.20800160]

Yes, better than Fraud. At least he's more interesting to read.

Yes. In places outside America, a high school grad should be able to understand almost all of Jung

He belongs in that category, indeed. However... in the 'hierarchy,' Hegel stands on the highest step.

So the endgame is becoming gay? We all know he went gay at his old age.

[Anonymous No.20800526]

>>20800447
The endgame is becoming a tranny, like the demonic Jung wants you to, yes.

[Anonymous No.20800600]

yes

>implying any of you 15 year old theater kids are even so close to anything resembling "end-game" that you should even be allowed to use the term

also, not homophobic enough to be considered end-game.

He is not the endgame but he is close. Rather use him to get to the endgame.

Just another occultist pseud. Read many of his books in my 20s, none of it was useful in any way.

Jung must be based. Buying his complete works now.

Most anons who read Jung in their late teens/early 20s read the most surface level works of Jung and come out still not knowing jack shit and didn't even reach mid-level Jung in their study,

Reading Modern Man in Search of a Soul, Man and His Symbols, and The Undiscovered Self is barely scratching the surface, and Memories, Dreams, Reflections doesn't count to additional knowledge since its an autobiography.

>Is he really the endgame?
No. He's the way in.

[Anonymous No.20800952]

>>20800938
Backwards. Either you understand the concept of the archetypes and the collective unconscious or you don't. The 'deep' Jung corpus is just using those concepts to understand his autobiographical personal folios and schizoid rambling ie Red Book and the Black Books.

[Anonymous No.20800963]

>>20800889
You can start anywhere here. Jung is a gnostic.

[Anonymous No.20800998]

>>20800952
You have to work forwards to go backwards.

One cannot simply read those works and apply them in any practical way before going in and understanding what his aim was with the black/red books and going through a similar experience yourself and knowing how to confront it in a meaningful way.

Literally anything. It's not that Jung isn't worth reading, it's just that he's not that important in the bigger picture. You'll figure this out once you've read more.
Start with Plato.

6 Jews that changed the world have gathered for a talk
Moses said that everything is from there *pointed at sky*
Solomon said everything is from here *pointed at head*
Jesus Christ disagreed and said that everything is from here *pointed at heart*
Marx insisted that everything is from here *pointed at belly*
Freud shaked his head and said that everything is from *pointed at crotch*
Einstein with a calm smug said "Guys, everything in the world is relative"

Seethe?
I like Jung. In just trying to explain that once you've read more stuff, you'll find that he's not that important. I remember discovering Jung when I was a teenager and thinking he's top shit, which is fine - he's not bad, he's just not ultimately important.
