Psicologia e religione

Through a little research I became aware of and interested in Jung's idea of "The Shadow," so I started getting my hands on some of his stuff. "The Shadow" is a part of every human beings personality. It is the other side of us that we shove way deep down inside and hope no one else sees. This conce Leggi tutto

Psychology and Religion (Based on the Terry Lectures Delivered at Yale University) How many of you have had some strange recurring dreams over a long period of time, where you find yourself at a place which you often see in your dreams but with slight variations from the previous ones and you feel a Leggi tutto

This is a brilliant book on so many levels that I am struggling with how to express my reaction to it. I look forward to reading it again because the ideas within it are dense and nuanced and evocative and will change as my understanding and self-awareness change.

სასწაულია როგორ მოახდინა ამ კაცმა ამდენი რამის ერთმანეთთან დაკავშირება, გააზრება და ფსიქოლოგიურ პროდუქტად გარდაქმა. თარგმანი ძალიან კარგია. იუნგიმ "პასუხი იობს", 76 წლის ასაკში დაწერა. ტექსტში ის ხშირად აღნიშნავს, რომ იმყოფება ვარაუდების დონეზე, ზოგიერთი საკითხი კი მისთვისაც სრულიად ბუნდოვანი და გაურკ Leggi tutto

یونگ همیشه برای من چهره ای خاص بوده. با وجود برخی از نظریات شگفت انگیزش گاهی انقدر روانشناسی رو با چیزهای فراطبیعی و معنوی آمیخته که به سختی میشه باورشون کرد. در این کتاب بیشتر روشهای تعبیر خواب روانکاوانه توسط یونگ ، آداب و مناسک مسیحی و نمادشناسی دستم اومد تا چیزی که میخواستم...! Leggi tutto

"But what is the difference between a real illusion and a healing religious experience? It is merely a difference in words....Nobody can know what the ultimate things are. We must, therefore, take them as we experience them. And if such experience helps make your life healthier, more beautiful, more Leggi tutto

ასეთი არაჩვეულებრივი ლექცია. და ასეთი შესანიშნავი თარგმანი. და ასეთი კარგი მკითხველიც, - ბარემ :))
