Jordan Peterson | The Red Book of Carl Jung

The most influential unpublished work in the history of psychology. When Carl Jung embarked on an extended self-exploration he called his “confrontation with the unconscious,” the heart of it was The Red Book, a large, illuminated volume he created between 1914 and 1930. Here he developed his principle theories-of the archetypes, the collective unconscious, and the process of individuation-that transformed psychotherapy from a practice concerned with treatment of the sick into a means for higher development of the personality.

[@danmoord375]

What Jung might be revealing is not the source of understanding, but instead the source of knowledge , the mind, which produced the grand illusion of self. What Jung withheld from the public but revealed in the Red Book, was his awareness of an intelligence that transcended the mind, something he referred to as divine madness. Some today might call it pure consciousness, or just consciousness. Peterson's capacity as a speaker is an exceptional performance.

It is the death of ego which leads to rise to consciousness and self awareness. U become aware of ur flaws and everything around u and it tortures u so u find peace but even peace does not last. And when u reach that point. U realize we are all interconnected bound by our physical reality and what affects u will be put onto the other person unintentionally and etc like a ripple in a pond. There is one more reason not to fight eachother which is silly and naive for the betterment of mankind yet we selfishly deny it and justify our ignorance towards life yet claim to be the greatest thing ever meanwhile we can't even make a phone that doesn't delay and glitch out or better wifi connection etc. If u watch close enough tho it's like we are puppets putting on a show controlled almost subconsciously. We all are just playing our parts given to us. Yet it is our free will to become conscious and ascend which I think correlates with the man child theory as this shows our under development to both our emotional and psychological independents and need to express things in a philosophical way which primitive in nature giving even more evidence to my previous hypothesis. It is thru self exploration that we 'fully' develope but that potential is truely unknown as far as I know Carl jung and Nikola Tesla were the first to show these developments such as predicting human behaviour and trends years ahead of their time giving proof to both the vast unlimited potential of humanity which may be easier explored thru spirituality or philosophy

[@foreston8557]

Ive been thinking about this lately. I want to learn maths to understand and describe these ideas, but when I think about it, all there is to measure is our own perception. We use maths as a tool to describe something, using agreed upon measures to correlate meaning .. but the true measure and witness is perceiving it yourself. The objective YOU is the only thing conceptualizing a measurement and its measure. When they say that reality is an illusion, that the universe is made up of frequency and vibration, that the universe has no color, that we are all one... understanding that and seeing the world as is is enlightenment. which is the first step. now that your doors of perception are cleansed, what do you perceive? your truth is your relative truth. perception is reality. ngl reading that back I sound like a crazy person.. but im gonna post anyway

[@matt009817]

@@dayelu6028 I believe it was in his college lecture maps of meaning number 10. But that is long, so I apologize if I am wrong. Basically he was conveying that it is never a good idea to play with a loaded weapon, and that although that is common sense, you should also never play with an unloaded weapon for the chance that their is a bullet in the chamber, for the consequence will certainly not be welcomed. As for your children, they take after you, whether or not you are paying attention to that ideology in all aspects of their presence. Even if you are not around them when something goes wrong (unloaded weapon), your attitude may be off and is something that they pick up and may take after, themselves. So always think of yourself as a loaded weapon; as swearing/uncanny emotion/bad habits will be instilled onto your child unless you are always keeping a watchful eye, not just on their health and safety, but also their perception of their environment and most importantly yourself (the parent). Sorry if I butchered that a bit, I’m certainly not as elegant or sublime as Peterson, but I hope you’ve understood.

[@futureshocked]

I've actually done what Jung did but by total accident. I had covid and was laying in bed one night totally suffering...but more from back pain. So I did something. I asked my backpain a question. I took the pain, made a character in my imagination and started asking it questions. The back pain was my inner child, very damaged, literally screaming at me to look at my childhood again. It wanted to be held and to no longer be ignored. So in my imagination I welcomed it in, gave it a hug. It clawed and teared at me at first, then finally relaxed. I was bawling my eyes out. Ever since then I have been on an upward path to healing myself.

Started keeping a gun under his pillow. But he was able to 'come back' from it. Same thing happened to me.

Agree with you, our society is loosing the rights and dignity that we’re afforded to the individual in favor of groupthink.Demonization, censorship, accepting of partial logic or even illogical conclusions is becoming norm. We are in danger of creating a truly horrifying totalitarian state which has no place in it for individual expression, and mass surveillance to have no place to hide. It’s not written as destiny but we are heading towards it. Things aren’t doomed to collapse is we accept the burden of being true to our nature, looking for truth, overcoming our blindness and reconnecting to the revivifying spring of life. Jung found a path forward, but it will take much time to assimilate into the collective.

I underwent a break with reality. Or a psychosis. My imagination or something else saved me. Alone in a car for a year. I wrote my thoughts in a small black book. Maybe syncronysity brought me to jung. Terrifying to think someone else went through the same thing. And comforting

[@balevisser42]

I've had one psychosis too, after using psychedelics I awakened and got into bliss, until I went straight into a burnout during a traineeship for my bachelors degree. I couldn't handle family and friends anymore because I was totally burned out. The traineeship was finished but I was dealing with childhood trauma. During the vacation I had problems with my anger and my bother noticed that. During my freetime I began to experience all dark thoughts I had for a long time at night. I couldn't sleep at night anymore. I was completely soaked into the inner world. I only saw the inner world projected onto the outer world. Well guess what, my family begged me to get help and quit high school. I didn't want to but I also didn't want conflict so I paused high school and went to the doctor. I got help in a mental health organisation. They said I had symptoms of schizofrenia. I knew very well what I was experiencing for that was on my mind all the time. I didn't liked to get noticed for schizofrenia because they didn't understand me. I prefer to be understood and not get a label. Well I began working at a farm and I began to dive into the inner realms of consciousness. I loved it, the only thing I hated was my social image to friends and family. Because I was totally different now. No high school and normal reality anymore. Only me and my inner world and people who don't even understand a slice of reality I was dealing with. After 2 months I got a psychosis and my parents called the mental hospital. Now I got brought in. They have me medication. I didn't react to it. I didn't wanted medication. I wanted rest and peace. But... They gave me the strongest medication, allthough I didn't wanted to. (Actually a climate against my own free will and freedom) But hey I could become the crazy fool who has problems with everyone or make sure I heal myself and get out of it. I choose the second option. I was out in 6 weeks. Began writing, reading, exercising and now after 3 years I feel way more whole, stable, peaceful and in peace with friends a family than ever before. I lost my super ego and are back to my younger self. I am 25 now but feel like I felt at secondary school which was cool. I hope to help some people in the future because I know what trauma, psychosis, depression, or something really painful and energy depleting is and does. It's the worst and also the best thing that can happen to you. I hope you will restore yourself and become a whole new you while also being the old you. You actually become who you really are. That is not easy but totally cool to be honest. Peace Ben

@@balevisser42 this happened to me when I was 19. I’m male. I worked at a Japanese prototyping company and I lived with a roommate in a two bedroom apartment and would trip balls. One day at work an American guy (I’m in America at a Japanese company) comes up and says, do you believe in god? And I never really thought about it before that to hard but that was my first “synchronicity.” But I didn’t know it happened to other people since nobody talked about it. After that I found Bhagavad Gita through Alan watts, ram dass and Terrence McKenna. One night I did DMT and listened to Bhagavad Gita. I thought I died, I thought I was krsna sadly and fell into dillusion with my roommate who also was like “infected” by this train of thought. Or vise versus. But either way, I traveled to a krsna consciousness temple and was basically manipulated (bad bad way) and brainwashed into believing all of my dillusions and more. I walked out having work the next day after the temple visit and tried to hitch hike home and leave my car. I did, but found a taxi and payed $300 to drive 2h to get me to work. Instead I stopped at my parents first and showed them all my books and cried. The cops ended up coming because my parents were worried and I was later diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder. That was almost 4 years ago. I’m 23 now and it traumatized my entire life. It changed how people saw me, especially my family, and it made it difficult to function for a year or two without being anxious, nervous or constantly getting high on weed. I lost a lot then and it was traumatic. Now I’m Muslim. Since about 2020. But I respect all religions, and I love Hindu art (what my true admiration for it was) I’ve never felt healthier now either. Have my life together, haven’t seen a hospital since then and have gotten everything back and more. Patience, Gita, ram dass, Carl yung, Alan watts, McKenna, Quran, Tibetan Book of the Dead, Tao te Ching, etc. have helped me, I just took to the wrong path of lust and got punished with a diagnosis and years of severe depression. I’ll never make that mistake again. Thank you for reading. Alhamdulilah brothers and sisters. God is guiding whether we see or do not see, it is all the same.

Lane, Ph.D., has won a Prescrire Prize for Medical Writing and teaches at Northwestern University, author of Shyness: How Normal Behavior Became a Sickness: "Carl Jung's Frightening Demons... Jung's Red Book... The haunting book... Cooper notes in "Jung Confronts His Demons," a fascinating article in yesterday's Wall Street Journal, Jung's manuscript and paintings about communing with deities and demons (his own and those of others) were kept "in a locked cupboard in [his] Kusnacht house in the Zurich suburbs after his death in 1961." In 1984, Cooper continues, the manuscript "was transferred to a bank." Norton published it in translation only last October, almost exactly a half-century after its author had died. The book's editor and translator, Sonu Shamdasani, had spent five years trying to decipher and interpret the manuscript, and a further three trying to persuade the Jung family to allow him to publish it... Although Jungians have been quick to downplay any suggestion that the book records more than its author's spiritual crisis or a foretaste of his evolving intellectual path, the book, which Jung christened Liber Novus (Latin for "New Book"), documents such matters as his conversations with the winged "Philemon" during his daytime walks. By that point, the Swiss psychiatrist had been treating schizophrenia for several years. And though Shamdasani insists that Jung was engaging in a controlled experiment-"There wasn't anything like a psychosis"-the wrinkle in that story is that Jung's unusual hallucinations appear to have been involuntary... Jung claimed to hear a bird-girl announce, "Only in the first hour of the night can I become human, while the male dove is busy with the twelve dead." At other moments, the influential thinker-either haunted by premonitions of the First World War or hyper-aware of the growing threat of European militarism-saw what Cooper calls a "landscape submerged by a river of blood carrying forth not only detritus but also dead bodies"-possibly a premonition of the devastation that would persist in Europe for the next five years... His account of the book, as well as an exhibition at UCLA", see www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/side-effects/201005/carl-jungs-frightening-demons

@@OnceTheyNamedMeiWasnt I don't like the IQ-system. In Finland I was unemployed at one time and out of interest I went to a local unemployment psychologist (yeah, Finland does have those) and she got my IQ tested. I got over 130 results and she thought I must be some kind of genius. But the reason I got the high score was that I've been doing similar tests FOR FUN many many times. It was not that I was smart, but I experienced similar scenarios before. IQ isn't connected to a certain kind of "awareness" at all. Also, wisdom and being intelligent/smart are totally different things.

[@OnceTheyNamedMeiWasnt]

@@VarjoFilosofi I totally agree with you. IQ is a sledgehammer to crack (or at least bag up and weigh with worldly scales) the multifaceted nut that is intelligence. This world values only certain shards of that nut. Certainly not nuts that quack (and crack) like me. In my opinion, intelligence is also an issue of "seeing into the sense of things", and this is a rare and poorly understood intelligence these days e.g. reading the invisible and seeing its intentions from a million miles away... As an aside, I sense you have planet-sized intellect and deep insight (Jung's fullness and emptiness), which I immediately sensed from your initial comment.

Imagine being an original indigenous peoples, collecting food on the coast of Australia and noticing a strange white spec on the horizon. Quickly turning into a ship, full of stranger's endowed with a patriarchal religious quest. I believe they were called a Papal bull for earlier quests. Any lands found not practicing Christianity were designated Terra Nullis, ripe for the picking. If I have misunderstood JP's statement please explain where I went wrong. (I'm a boilermaker, good chance it went over my head)

@International Entertainment Djs- I didn't say Peterson was an exceptional speaker, I said it was an exceptional performance.

[@williamcancilla4615]

I will disagree on JPs final point. I think the most important thing that happened in the 20th century was the revival of traditions and spiritual practices (mostly originating in the east) that will lead us to the ubermensch notion originally proposed by Nietzche.

I think Jung said something to the point of it's very dangerous for Western man to adopt Eastern beliefs. I wish I had the quote because it's more than what I can recall.

[@williamcancilla4615]

@@oO-_-_-_-Oo Is it this one? "Eastern philosophy fills a psychic lacuna in us but without answering the problem posed by Christianity. Since I am niether indian nor Chinese, I rest content with European pressupositions as to not be in danger of losing my roots a second time"

The intersection of imagination, reason and emotion can be numinous. Religion is the ritualized craft of potentially numinous practice/s. :)

May I ask you some questions regarding magick?

[@chinobambino5252]

Way to turn a real insightful video about interpreting subjective experience into some new age woowoo nonsense. I promise you that whatever magic you think you're practicing is either the result of someone else fooling you, or you fooling yourself.

In a newer podcast with JP, I can’t remember the other two men in it, it was said that Jung wrote the Red Book in a year of isolation while experiencing with mushrooms.

[@_gnam]

@@seshiria_4290 oh yes, shrooms are ancient.

[@thinginground5179]

@@seshiria_4290 Yeah, magic mushrooms have been around since the dawn of mankind--although I'm not sure what Mr. Swamp is implying here, because Jung actually held a kind of prejudice against the use of psychedelics.

Jordan should start reading Rudolf Steiner or Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.

In simpler terms for the contemporary, far less educated layman, it would seem that Jung might have been doing ancestor/shadow work. Chuck a deuce up to woowoo, ya'll.

Music is a bit distracting. And a touch sentimental. Edit: its downright innapropriate. Hes not saying anything that can run with that music. It just sounds like an uber fan cried to this and decided they wanted everyone else to aswell....

stop putting music over these clips.

[@mongoharry]

You imitate someone who imitated someone who imitated someone, and thus, through introspection, you can learn about the behavior of people who lived a long time ago. I live in the American South, and since I arrived hear a couple of years ago, I swear I hear in the demanding, disrespectful voices of African American mothers speaking to their children: Echoes of Southern slave overseers from long ago. It's a unsettling and leaves me feeling sick to my stomach. If you're not "from around here" all I can do is suggest that if you're interested, y'all come down and hear it for yourself.

[@sebastianverney7851]

I wish they'd turn the music down. It's not as if Peterson isn't worth listening to. He's very much worth listening to. So why can't we just listen to him without all the noise? We're not all kids. I have just given up at 3 minutes. It is so irritating. Let's have this music for when we have to listen to Biden or Trump.

Kill the music.
