    My favorite portions of Jung’s excerpts were how individuation involves the family, and specifically acknowledging mistreatment by one’s closest loved ones as universal, necessary. “The boring family drama... Only a fool is interested in another person’s guilt. The wise man is interested in his own guilt, so he can learn from it.”

      @IfWhiningAtProblemsWorks, WhyDoCorporationsLobby? it sounds a bit elaborate and broad.

To grow as an individual, I must regard myself as self-caused and not a victim of another person’s-or anyone governing my life-sins.

    1. Your current condition is where you start, don't wish things had been different or expect others to feel guilty, on the path of Individuation.
    2. Unlived life generates addictions, ailments, anxiety,... Is self - destructive.
    3.One must choose a real-world endeavor that's challenging and intrinsically fulfilling to be able to overcome inner drama.
    4. Everyone must deal with the conditions of life, whether they individuated or not.

    The individuation process is analogous to spiritual alchemy, "many are called, few are chosen". Because of the sheer amount of pain and work this entailed, Jung didn't believe the vast majority of people could accomplish it. The first step is to acknowledge the perils that lie ahead and to face them with resolve and humility. Thank you for this video.

      Sadly, the book to provide the direct reference is packed up in a box, but here's a quote from Gregory Shaw quoting Kingsley's book "Catafalque"---which is where you can find the direct quotes from Jung about his thoughts on individuation in the index. This is a quote from Shaw's review of Kingsley's book on Jung and Corbin, "....although individuation is the quintessential myth of Jung’s psychology, it is almost never experienced because no one can bear it. Individuation is the surrendering of the personal to the impersonal, and precisely what Jung experienced it to be, the death of his personality. Jung explains that individuation is a total mystery; the mystery of the Grail that holds the essence of God. According to Henry Corbin, Jung saw “true individuation as becoming God or God’s secret.” Put simply, individuation is deification". If you're interested in reading the entire book review, Google "The Cry of Merlin" Gregory Shaw.

    All in all, those affirmations helped me realize that I will always be a human being. Regardless how hard I work towards making better decisions. As long as I'm able to recognize what I need to work on, it's all good.

    I can't measure how much the principals of this channel have benefited me. 2 months ago I had 7 tooth extractions and am now getting partials (replacement teeth). By allowing myself to experience the pain during that period, I've discovered an important strength within which enables me to meet the bleak uncertainty of life's realities.
    Of course...(Antibiotics and pain medicine were most helpful as well.)

    Often I have seen interpretations of what Jung expresses oversimplified and taken out of context. This is generally done by a group/culture which is overlooked by mainstream academia because of the "spiritual magic" these folks are also associated with. Thank you Academy of Ideas for giving a clear and concise summarization of Jungian ideas which will hopefully give more credibility to the existential thinking of Jung. Looking forward to more videos with this continued level of brevity and easier to absorb cadence.

    I had an experience lasting a few years in which I was physically torn down to skin and bones. I ate on my hands and knees because I couldn't sit or stand much. At one point I broke a bit lol and I think I actually tried to get away from the pain, there was nowhere to hide. That was when I made my first saying like a mantra, "if this is the price I pay for life then I'll pay it everyday". I'm a simple guy and easy to trick I suppose, my next mantra was " I don't feel yesterday's pain". Thanks for this upload, up until now Jung was just a name to me.

I had 99 problems when I was drinking and when I stopped, 97 of them went away. I no longer take any psychiatric medication, am no longer depressed or suicidal, and feel like I’m as whole as I’ve ever been since a small boy when a lot of terrible things happened.

      I disagree with both of these comments, respectfully of course. Though being able to be alone with your thoughts is a healthy part of life, the human psyche is not designed to be alone for extended periods of time even if it is voluntary. I can only hope that if you truly a pursuing the path to individuation, that you will inevitably make choices that guides towards others who think alike. Indeed, this may take months, or even years to occur, but I think it is reasonable.
      It also depends on your stage in life. If you are at college/university, then there are definitely in the right environment to find those who think the right way even if they are few. If you are in high school, perhaps less so. Maybe you can use one of your passions or skills to join a community where you must force yourself to interact with others, probing their character simultaneously.
      This is the best answer I can conjure.

    I find listening/reading Jung interesting, thought provoking and insightful.
    In discussing Jung ideas and thoughts I have found it is easier to focus on the concept of individuation as 'doing what I want to do for me' and either not thinking or focusing and even ignoring the concept of growth through wisdom and by acting in mature, wise and moral ways.
