Jung, Tolkien and the Hermeneutics of Vision -- Dr. Lance S. Owens
(This is a repost of the lecture with a better audio track. The original post appears here: https://youtu.be/q2YrED9wP2k )
Abstract:
Beginning in the years around the First World War, two extraordinary
men were called to take an exceedingly difficult journey of exploration.
It was a voyage of discovery, a passage into the world of imagination.
For the rest of their lives both men – J. R. R. Tolkien and C. G. Jung –
affirmed that their mythopoetic fantasies had led them to something
intrinsically real. The figures they encountered in vision spoke with
autonomous voices, and the tales they told were entwined with history
and human destiny at the perilous threshold of a new age.
Jung
and Tolkien each struggled in solitude with the hermeneutic challenge of
recording their experiences. How does one recount in word and image
the tale of a venture into vision? And how does one then interpret this
record of an imaginal fact?
In this lecture, Dr. Owens examines
the private accounts that both Jung and Tolkien scribed about their
imaginative experiences – personal writings that remained mostly hidden
for several decades after their deaths. What did they "think" they were
doing? How did they understand “vision”? What was their “hermeneutics
of vision?” And what interpretive approach will we now take to the
strange tales of wayfarers who wander in the imaginal world?
The three lectures by Dr. Owens on "J.R.R. Tolkien - An Imaginative Life" are available at: http://www.gnosis.org/tolkien/
His central lecture from this above series, on Tolkien and Imagination, is available on YouTube, here: https://youtu.be/SuDJ2JzfBT8
Dr. Owens' lectures on "C. G. Jung and the Red Book" are available at: http://www.gnosis.org/redbook/
Carl Jung - Shadow Projection
Published on May 25, 2012
Excerpt from Man & His Symbols (Audiobook) by Carl G. Jung on the shadow aspect of the psyche.
In Jungian psychology, the shadow or "shadow aspect" may refer to the
entirety of the unconscious, i.e., everything of which a person is not
fully conscious, or an unconscious aspect of the personality which the
conscious ego does not recognize in itself. Because one tends to reject
or remain ignorant of the least desirable aspects of one's personality,
the shadow is largely negative. There are, however, positive aspects
which may also remain hidden in one's shadow (especially in people with
low self-esteem). Contrary to a Freudian conceptualization of shadow,
therefore, the Jungian shadow often refers to all that lies outside the
light of consciousness, and may be positive or negative. "Everyone
carries a shadow," Jung wrote, "and the less it is embodied in the
individual's conscious life, the blacker and denser it is." It may be
(in part) one's link to more primitive animal instincts, which are
superseded during early childhood by the conscious mind.
According to Jung, the shadow, in being instinctive and irrational, is prone to
projection: turning a personal inferiority into a perceived moral
deficiency in someone else. Jung writes that if these projections are
unrecognized "The projection-making factor (the Shadow archetype) then
has a free hand and can realize its object--if it has one--or bring
about some other situation characteristic of its power." These
projections insulate and cripple individuals by forming an ever thicker
fog of illusion between the ego and the real world.

Carl Gustav Jung on Kundalini (full story)
"Jung amplifies the image of the snake in the abdomen by reference to the serpent in Kundalini Yoga. "I told you," Jung says, "the case of that intuitive girl who suddenly came out with the statement that she had a black snake in her belly." He situates the snake in the context of the collective unconscious. "Well now, that is a collective symbol," he says. "That is not an individual fantasy, it is a collective fantasy." The image of the snake in the abdomen, Jung says, "is well known in India." Although the woman "had nothing to do with India" and although the image "is entirely unknown to us," he says that "we have it too, for we are all similarly human." When the woman first told Jung about the snake in her belly, he wondered whether "perhaps she was crazy," but then he realized that "she was only highly intuitive." She had intuited a typical, or archetypal, image. "In India," Jung says, "the serpent is at the basis of a whole philosophical system, of Tantrism; it is Kundalini, the Kundalini serpent" (1977: 322). According to Jung, "This is something known only to a few specialists, generally it is not known that we have a serpent in the abdomen" (1977: 322-3).
The Kundalini serpent is coiled quiescently at the base of the spine. When this energy is aroused in the practice of Kundalini Yoga, it uncoils and rises up the spine through six successive chakras, or centers of consciousness. This is what John Woodroffe (also known as Arthur Avalon) calls the "serpent power" (1973). There is, Jung notes, "in Tantric Yoga or Kundalini Yoga an attempt to reach the condition where Shiva is in eternal union with Shakti." He says that Shiva "is encircled by the female principle, Shakti, in the form of a serpent" (CW 18: 120, par. 263)."
"Intuition" as a Superior and Inferior Function
Dr. Mann's question: "Is it not by intuition that one arrives most easily at the transcendent function, and if a person is lacking in that function-that is, in intuition-are not the difficulties greatly increased? Must one not reach the transcendent function alone, that is, unaided?" Dr. Jung:

Carl Jung on Carl Jung
Carl Jung on Carl Jung Playlist from CarlJungStudies.org and CenterpointEC.org
Carl Jung: "The world hangs on a thin thread...."
Video of Carl Jung's famous statement:
"The world hangs by a thin thread, and that thread is the psyche of man.... Nowadays, we are not threatened by elemental catastrophes.... WE are the great danger. The psyche is the great danger. What if something goes wrong with the psyche? And so it is demonstrated in our day what the power of the psyche is, how important it is to know something about it. But we know nothing." (From "A Matter of Heart")
[Note: when Jung says here, "Nowadays we are not threatened by elemental catastrophes...." he means that the greatest threats facing us are all human-caused (e.g., in his time, nuclear war; and now additionally climate change, biodiversity loss, ocean acidification, and other environmental catastrophes), and thus that the greatest threats facing us are at their root problems of HUMAN PSYCHOLOGY.]

Carl Jung - The Self Video Insight
Excerpt from Man & His Symbols (Audiobook) by Carl G. Jung on the concept of the Self.
The Self in Jungian psychology is one of the Jungian archetypes, signifying the unification of consciousness and unconsciousness in a person, and representing the psyche as a whole. The Self, according to Jung, is realised as the product of individuation, which in his view is the process of integrating one's personality.
For Jung, the Self is symbolised by the circle (especially when divided in four quadrants), the square, or the mandala.
What distinguishes Jungian psychology is the idea that there are two centers of the personality. The ego is the center of consciousness, whereas the Self is the center of the total personality, which includes consciousness, the unconscious, and the ego. The Self is both the whole and the center. While the ego is a self-contained little circle off the center contained within the whole, the Self can be understood as the greater circle.
Jung considered that from birth every individual has an original sense of wholeness - of the Self - but that with development a separate ego-consciousness crystallizes out of the original feeling of unity. This process of ego-differentiation provides the task of the first half of one's life-course, though Jungians also saw psychic health as depending on a periodic return to the sense of Self, something facilitated by the use of myths, initiation ceremonies, and rites of passage.
Once ego-differentiation had been successfully achieved, and the individual securely anchored in the external world, Jung considered that a new task then arose for the second half of life - a return to, and conscious rediscovery of, the Self: individuation.
