Oh Hell, this whole thing sounds like someone I actually know! "The shadow is being projected by the hater onto the hated" has a significant significance. It explains so much including.
Ergo, the intense anger for "normal people."
"All seeing & all knowing" is a monumental testimony to a monumental ego whose appetite for Majesty (where none exist)includes the media which (according to Indian lore)like land and the sky can never be really owned by anyone. One thing is for sure, Mother Earth was better off when this lore was true.
Despising "innovation because it pushes their buttons" has been so apparent and obvious on this forum at to be absolutely stunning.
Benteen, could you do some additional research and ascertain if their is any hope for people like you described. I kinda feel sorry for people who are trapped in such a dismal,cloudy,absolute zone of inequity |

| Sure thing, but I would imagine that it would involve intensive psycho-therapy at least 4 times a week. Get back to you on that... |

Joe,
They simply must come to terms with their shadow. Whether the shadow is some kind of spirit possession, as the bible claims can be, or whether it is some manifestation yet unknown to science, it exists. And sadly, for most, it usually happens at mid-life. Most people reject or deny they have a problem and when they do this, some form of derangement happens. Only when a person confronts the shadow will they discover or perhaps rediscover their own real life’s purpose.
Real life, not merely the image one wants to see of “life”; means embracing all the uncertainty of one’s unconsciousness, acceptance of one’s weaknesses, and a full commitment to believe, hope and trust in something far better than what one judge‘s themselves to be.
This full commitment to that cause is what they fear the most, because they fear a psychological death. They are addicted as any addict is to the substance of their shadow. Their greatest fear is in sharing and being honest with others about their psychological problems, and loosing their identity in the process. And that somehow a fear that the truth will come out, that hidden truth, that secret truth will somehow burst forth the identity they really are. That their entire mind, body and spirit with shadow in tow, will be caught up defending in prejudice what they are most afraid to loose. But what they do not realize is that as long as they gain their identity from the world around them, only then, do they have to be concerned about loosing it and the loneliness that comes with it; and the point of true healing sadly missed.
They must realize that all fantasies must be understood in the light of what they represent in their deep unconsciousness, and must resolve these conflicts for the sake of their health. And to do this they must take a step into reality and the real world or it will only lead to other fears and other fantasies and greater loneliness. The first step is to realize that all identities are a fraud in the first place, and to embrace and take the first steps towards reality that one’s fantasies envision.
Why change reality as you know it? Try to understand the soul, the life’s essence, those basic things that gives us all life. And then the painful reality of death. And then to further this, the fantasy of changing one’s personal meaning contains some mysterious secret that will release one from the hard facts of this life, this death and/or this social void. Many of those afflicted with this mental instability feel out of place because they don’t fit into society’s image of how they should speak or act, the problem may not be with how we stereotype human behavior but with their self image and identity, which is almost always the case when they cannot, will not confront their fears and take a good look in a mirror, because the reflection isn’t the person standing there.

WOW! Benteen your psychoanalysis is off the chart!!! Identification with the material world stifles the soul and, slowly stifles any possibility of spirituality. In my fifties, I knew something was wrong. Didn't know what;just something. Now I realize what it was;the death of my materialism. Afraid to exist without the crutch of all things that are impressive in the physical world, I longed for the spiritual but could not overcome my fear of the unknown.
What I did know was this growing and,un-abating disgust with the pompous, arrogant,and cruel entities of the physical world. Their inability to stretch out their perspectives and their seemingly unrealistic anger (hate?)towards any who disagree with them.
We may have to start a whole new thread for further analysis. Unbelievable work, thanks!

| Glad to have been of some help Joe. Jung was always one of my favorites. I don't remember how old I was when I read Frazer's "The Golden Bough", which led me to Jung. I believe still in the teen's though, and I was impressed with Frazer's work, still am. |
