Modern Man
-Bad Religion Lyrics

I've got nothing to say
I've got nothing to do
All om my neurons are
Functioning smoothly

Yet still I'm a cyborg just like you
I am one big myoma that thinks
My planet supports only me
I've got this one big problem: will I live forever?

I've got just a short time you see
Modern man, evolutionary betrayer
Modern man, ecosystem destroyer
Modern man, destroy yourself in shame
Modern man, pathetic example of earth's organic heritage
When I look back and think
When I ponder and ask "why?"

I see my ancestors spend with careless abandon
Assuming eternal supply, modern man
Just a sample of carbon-based wastage
Just a fucking tragic epic of you and I

Jung is without a doubt one of the most original thinkers ever. Very interesting video.

Leo

Not original, his ideas are from the Indian vedant philosophy.

@The Emo Emu not fearless, he was terrified of what he experienced during his confrontation with the Uncounscious, but he was brave and pushed through, with an invaluable surport from Toni Wolff, without her he would likely not have survived.

And bravest. He was fearless in the face of what others would think about him.

I just finished reading this book today. Thought I would check out this video to further consolidate my understanding of Jung's idea. Great summary of complex subject matter. This channel deserves to blow up.

I'm drawing to the end of this book and would also agree with the above comment, this video has re-inforced my understanding of Jung's very complex ideas.

This kept me hooked the entire time! You do a great job in choosing the art to support the current of themes running through your words and they're all so unique and genuinely asthetic. I loved watching, so captivating!

I feel blessed to have stumbled upon your channel sir. Thank you for all your effort. My interest in dreams and studies of psychology and counselling ultimately lead me to Jung. Jung opened up so many doors for me, which eventually lead to the likes of Nietsczhe, Dostoevsky, and Kirkegaard. I feel like a kid in a candy store exploring your content!

One of my favorite books! I've highlighted lots of quotes, read it twice and have marked the pages of each chapter so I can read them separately whenever I feel like it. It's a great book, and easy to read so I highly recommend it!

I love Carl jung videos. YouTube please recommend more psychology and philosophy video.

The Living Philosophy

1y↑1

Brilliant summary! Haven't actually read that one I just finished Aion which ended up being more of a slog in the middle than I expected but back on his Psychology of Kundalini Yoga now which is just packed with gold. That saying about Faust making Goethe rather than the other way around is epic god I love Jung

The Living Philosophy

1y↑1

@Eternalised Man and his symbols! that's what I was trying to think of that was my first Jung read. MDR is a great read really enjoyable personable way of entering into Jung and Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious 1 is brilliant lot of golden essays in there (2 is Aion and while there is gold in there there's just a little too much on the fish but then again it could have been the fact that I was reading it in bits and pieces)
Red book is also on my horizon. Might wait till I'm having my own midlife crisis so I can really relate XD

Eternalised

1y↑2

Thanks friend! Was a great read yeah.

Wow, Aion is a tough one haha, I still need to go through Man and His Symbols; Memories, Dreams, Reflections and then start w/ Archetypes of the collective unconscious (pt 1&2). I've heard him talk abt Kundalini, sounds quite interesting.

The red book also looks interesting, but i'll save that when i'm mentally prepared for it haha

Inspiration From The Past

Wow, your videos, are always top notch full of great knowledge, where you dive into the topic and pin point the main points with ease, excellent break down. Carl Jung for sure was rather wise man. Also, did you done that little animation yourself towards the end that was an interesting touch.

Inspiration From The Past

@Eternalised I see, either way that was a nice touch. Thank you for your explanation.

Eternalised

Thanks a lot! Carl Jung is so interesting. Will be reading more on him :) The animation i took from my older taoism video, I found it somewhere in free video images

Carl Jung, was "otherworldly"... I fully believe his soul was NOT "of human origin" and that's what helped him to "connect spirituality with the human psyche/science". He was absolutely brilliant. Blessings to all. 🌛🌚🌜

@Cosmic Comedy Aion 😮 I couldn't think of a worse book to start with! These recommendations are perfect by the way. Man and his symbols was specifically written for the layman, so it's alot easier to approach than anything else Jung had written prior to that. It's a great introduction to Jungian psychology.

Cosmic Comedy

1y↑1

@Eternalised great advice...I see people trying to start with Aion and just being like wtf is this? Haha

Eternalised

1y↑6

That's great. I'd suggest: Man and his Symbols; Modern Man in Search of a Soul; Memories, Dreams, Reflections; The Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious (in that order).

No offense but science give more then any religion understanding not only of our emotion but showing us the most accurate picture of them not for what we think these are but what really these are. See no need in abandoning reason that's why I always emphasize importance of understanding scientific development. What was discovered still can be accurate or relevant but very likely it was already corrected and new better therapies are formulated. Therefore we should look at philosophers as a guide but for details knowledge on reality we live in to the modern days science. Balance in that understanding that psychology neuroscience are one of the fastest developing disciplines of science. Historical education and knowing where it all come form yes I hear a lot of people who don't understand scientific methods or knowledge theory and they relay only on some psychologist book from the past I think it should be clarified a bit more how that all for into modern psychology. Disclaimer at the end or begining of the video we have to know that not every viewer knows what creator knows of this vid and even if they think they know there can be lack of understanding of the basics so they need to be said some things. Me inlucded no how I'm different from people I describe even knowing I spent last ten years learning about philosophy and psychology. Thank you for a video
