James Hillman: On Changing the Object of Our Desire

[@mspenelope6874]

A wonderful thinker, just a gift, though he spoke of humanity as a collective despite being a psychologist. For this reason, those new to Hillman should not assume everyone is to blame, for he assumes all have the same power in his discussion addressing the collective. It's not quite the case, but, he was certainly speaking truth to power, and his ideas about humanity's connection to nature were beautiful, profound and true for all ages. Bit we might be the last age. Thank you for uploading this inspiring and healing discussion.

The audio is terrible. I can hardly hear him, and cannot hear the interviewer at all.

Around minute 28/30 he made me realize that everyone has a dumbass inside of them just waiting to have a say in what we say.

these interviewers are slightly juvenile, repeating the same content through different phrasing... but it was a great introduction to Hillman so big thanks .

For me, the age I would like to be 35:30 would be 53 minus the menopause.

I feel that Hillman is a very mixed bag. For instance at minute 9: "Maybe we [humanity] are a virus in the system. Maybe we don't belong." I immediately thought, "And he's a therapist? Believing that could make anyone suicidal!". He doesn't seem to get Christianity at all. And yet he also says that finding the world beautiful and falling in love with it is the remedy to modern ills, which is undoubtedly true.

If you could properly comprehend him that would make him a pretty simple guy wouldn't it?

He’s all over the place. Sounds like an educated idiot at times.

The instinct to posses derives from the Lizard brain (part of the human brain) which is evolutionary as old as lizards. Humans just take it out of context.
