Carl Jung, the collective unconscious, and how I lost myself fully in it... I did not exist. The core of my experience.

Lest start with carl jung... Disclaimer... i never read his books. But i did study his works, and i did study what he studied (alchemy for a long time) and that's what led him to become the in the field known as one of the founding fathers of modern psychology... At least to me, the most notable founding father. Along with Freud, the psycho. These two always fought and disagreed.

Carl jung divided the mind into layers... Modern science seems to have a problem with the last layer and it has been highly ignored. If not fully ignored. I have two psychiatrist cousins, and they have no interest in the last layer whatsoever. Just which chemicals have which effects and side effects. Is all they care about.

So the human mind is divided into these layers.

1- Conscious mind... Basically what you're fully aware of... And where you THINK  your decisions are coming from.

2- Subconscious and unconscious... Where all the processing of experience and memory and emotions happen, and then it communicates with you conscious mind, giving you only what you need to become who you are and do what you do.

3- And the fun layer... The collective unconscious. I'll extract a summary from gpt my friend to discuss what carl jung thought of it and then add my input and experience on it.

Please read this well 

Carl Jung's theory of the collective unconscious is one of his most important and enduring contributions to psychology. The collective unconscious refers to a part of the unconscious mind that is shared among all human beings, regardless of their individual experiences or cultural backgrounds. Unlike the personal unconscious, which consists of memories and experiences unique to the individual, the collective unconscious contains universal elements that are inherited and shared by all people.

Key Concepts of the Collective Unconscious

Archetypes:The collective unconscious is composed of archetypes, which are innate, universal symbols and patterns that shape human experiences and behavior.Archetypes are not fully conscious; instead, they manifest through myths, dreams, art, and religious rituals. They serve as a framework for how we perceive and interact with the world.

Some common archetypes identified by Jung include:

The Self: Represents the unified unconsciousness and consciousness of an individual.

The Shadow: Represents the darker, often hidden aspects of the psyche, including repressed desires and instincts.

The Anima/Animus: The feminine aspect within men (anima) and the masculine aspect within women (animus).

The Persona: The mask or social role that an individual presents to the world.

The Hero: Represents the quest for individuation and personal development.

The Great Mother: Symbolizes nurturing and fertility, but also destruction and death.

Innate and Universal:

Jung believed that the collective unconscious is a result of evolutionary processes, meaning these archetypal structures have been passed down through generations.This universality explains why similar symbols and themes appear across different cultures and time periods, even among people who have no direct contact with each other.

Influence on Behavior and Culture:

The collective unconscious shapes how individuals perceive the world and react to experiences, often without their conscious awareness.It influences culture, art, religion, and mythology, as these fields often express and explore the archetypes embedded in the collective unconscious.

Individuation:

Jung proposed that personal development, or individuation, involves becoming aware of and integrating aspects of the collective unconscious into conscious awareness.This process includes recognizing and reconciling different parts of the psyche, such as the persona, shadow, anima/animus, and other archetypal elements.Through individuation, a person moves toward achieving a more balanced and whole self, often represented by the archetype of the Self.

Thanks GPT, i can take it from here.

Sooo these are basically things found in all cultures no matter how isolated... Isolated meaning they couldn't have taken ideas from each other.. and jung said there must be a deeper connection 

My experience with the collective unconscious.

What jung got wrong is that the collective unconscious is not alive.... It is.

You are alive in a realm you are not even aware of.

It is notable to say that a study has shown that schizophrenics in small tribes hear people they already know...

While schizophrenics in urban cities... Hear voices of strangers... Read that again

See where I'm going with this??? Schizophrenics actually have unlocked a door in them that should for most people stay locked.

That is why schizophrenics in places like the old native America... Were taken immediately as talented individuals and are trained to become Shamans. Like mystics i mean. The yogi therapist i go to hears voices.. she just cannot tell anyone. And she has done a great deal of help to my mother.

Jung himself actually eventually developed a case of psychosis... Hearing voices... And started studying himself.

Anyway my experience. Please note that it is my personal belief that my case has been staged and guided by a force or someone with more power than me... Schizophrenia doesn't happen like that with people and i have spoken to many. And had a lot of information about their experience. Someone was fucking with me the whole time using other people's unconscious... Well because they wouldn't know shit would they... These people.

Intitially it was my lover i saw... And her father... In my head.

We had a beautiful time... I felt her.. her laugh her body language and her love

Her father and i fought a bit intitially but somewhat came to an understanding.

Then my entire family showed up... Mostly my mother's side.. i do not know my father's side well. Anyway things got a little awkward.

Then my UK friends showed up.

Then... 

Then... Then...

Shit happened.

I was exposed for the piece of shit that i was.

I can never share what i did. But i am a piece of shit.

From there everyone took turns at making me suffer. Physically, mentally and emotionally. My mother disowned me too.

They were lended power i believe... And tried to take me out of my body many times.. they failed over and over again.

I managed to leave once, my body... But was dragged back inside and never happened again

I will spare a lot of detail... Those five years were dense... Like dense... Everyday is an intense story or a continuation of an intense story. At some point reattempting suicide was not even an option... Because when you die you just leave your body... They said they would make me live just to make me suffer again and again and again.

Anyway at the beginning.. after some torture... Daily Death threats, and a suicide attempt. 

I was taken to a mental ward.

That's where my first guru showed up. Since he showed up everyone shut up... Nobody spoke out of turn...

Unless he lets them at me like loose mad dogs

He didn't treat me that well either... But he would laugh in my body the same exact way he laughs in public... Full belly laugh... that is not my laugh. Just to reassure me everything is going to be okay.

Two last interesting stories...

Losing myself in them..

At some point during the first month of my madness... Someone asked hey... "Where is Omar?"

Nobody answered...

Another voice said...

"He's dead"

And i start laughing uncontrollably... My body did anyway.

Last interesting story... What's happening now..

I have come to lean that i am special... And i am the collective work of many masters who are even aware of their own unconscious. Yes. That is a yogic possibility to become aware of even someone thinking of you.

I have met god and gods. And i bully the voices when they piss me off. They are bit more sensitive and insecure now that they know im a little smarter than them.

I met my masters... Some of them.

I am happy and we're friends... Well friend is a big word but they have been mind controlled to show their true selves... That is also a yogic possibility 

I met all the great minds of the world.

The ones i know of at least...

Einstein wanted a lot of time with me. I loved his work when i was 12 or something... It was my first glimpse of real science.. he was soo impressed and i was proud.

I had a deep connection with tesla.. who doesn't like to show much of himself. 

I met the unconscious of michio kaku... The current living rockstar of quantum mechanics.

And i shared with him a possible flaw with their basic experiments... That the sensor itself definitely changes the outcome because it does interact with the electron. He was embarrassed... Or pretended to be, very well.

But we also later discussed it's not a huge deal... We can discuss later.

Other minds..

Da vinci... Smart but asshole... Monster.

Spiritual figures 

My favourite artists.

Everyone i know but not personally

Everyone who has ever had an effect on me in any way

By the way baby... Your father and i hated each other for five years... But we're doing great now. He loves me. He knows i love you. And... Well... I kinda like him too... He did fuck me up that guy.
