Overview

Carl Jung vs. Hunter Thompson. - Joe Rupe, host of Lighting the Void Radio Do you know what it's like to lose your mind? The mystics of antiquity from east to west spoke of living, breathing realms within the imagination. Mania or melancholy, ecstasy or entrancement, wisdom or insanity, divine or demonic, day or night, conscious or unconscious. Some people claim to have relationships with things like a divine creator, things that don't seem to exist, but they seem to be all the better for it. On the other hand, some people spend their lives in a schizophrenic psychosis, apparently having a better reason to speak of such things, yet they are notably worse off for it. As psychoanalyst CG Jung once wrote, This is the fund of unconscious images which fatally confuse the mental patient. But it is also the matrix of a mythopoeic imagination which has vanished from our rational age. Though such imagination is present everywhere, it is both tabooed and dreaded... It is considered the path of error, of equivocation and misunderstanding. I am reminded of Goethe's words; 'Now let me dare to open wide the gate/ Past which men's steps have ever flinching trod.' ...Unpopular, ambiguous, and dangerous, it is a voyage of discovery to the other pole of the world. Come with me if you want to dive. Decoding the mysteries of the mind through exploration of archetypes and psychedelic magic. - Martin Ferretti, host of The Alchemical Mind Podcast Most people spend their whole lives trying to cultivate a personal philosophy that is non-biased and rational when it comes to these topics, but it appears to come naturally to Anthony. - Mike Mazzei, host of Mind Escape Podcast Tyler's unique perspective into the collective psyche is a mind-bending read that is not for the uninitiated or the casual reader. For those with an analytical mind, however, this tome is a rather fantastic trove of beautifully written prose, and is a brief glimpse behind the veil of what it means to be human. A must-read for Spiritual Seekers. - Justin Otto, host of Dharma Junkie Podcast Cover art by musician and illustrator, DECA. https: //beulahrecords.com
