How did Jung make decisions
Interpreted dreams as signs.
What is spiritualism
Seeming scientific pursuit of understanding spiritual things. This is what I’m doing. It has fallen out of vogue, but I have to pursue phenomology. It’s scientific in that it depends on observation. But spiritual in that it acknowledges the immense element of subjective interpretation
What is new psychology
Forgotten now. It seems most things were new once. Had a more scientific framework that we take for granted in our understanding of the premise of psychology. Ology is just the study of. There are infinite ways to learn and understand, science is just the current system. Is viewed as a synonym for the pursuit of absolute truth, the understanding of nature as it is. Of reality. But really of shared reality specifically. And really just one system of approach. Dear Abi: it’s innacurate language. Your pursuit needs a system of gathering and verifying information. Which is in my case in the frame of phenomology is just a description of the mechanisms of thought

How to look for a light
Go do a dark place
I have freedom in my thoughts
Look carefully at the nature before you ask something to be different
I am in danger
Of believing I am
I can’t remember my thought
But I think it was that I am different than my God. I am the same but I must separate myself
This or that.
I wait. Not knowing what I’m waiting for
Alternate to risk of changing something
Risk of doing nothing
Why is a small problem more costly than a large one
Average issues breeds inactivity
Disaster breeds change
Because inaction is not viable in that situation.
Average issues don’t seem worth the effort to change.
Jungs religion
Was Christianity and that initially was a source of all truth
The devil humanized before my eyes
Because he said dance is joy.
Uncertainty
Worrying about being late and missing a meeting feels worse than if you know you are going to miss the meeting
So long as your God suffers
You have sympathy with him
You thus spare your hell
And prolong his suffering
Principles of the cross
- Let becoming have its day
- Entering your own life is highly unpleasant. Put up barriers to self awareness
- No one speaks louder of his power and greatness than he from whom the earth disappears under his feet

Set the present in the place of the future
So my intention survives. Move with the delay
If they cannot find the true one
At least they have a pope
