Thank you, E

as someone who grew up with multiple mental problems, i was and still surprised that Buddha already 'solved' my problems 2500 years ago better than modern psychologists. I've attended counseling, hypnoterapies, a psychiatrist etc. Learned about psychology as well . So desperate for help because i was suicidal most of the time, i turned my direction from modern psychology to buddhist 10-days meditation retreat. It was a life-changing experience because it worked even though i need more time to progress. Started to read the buddha's suttas and i was mindblown about the accuracy of his description about (my) mental state . It's a shame that no one in Wikipedia wrote that Buddha Gautama is the true founding father of psychology.

I don't want to sound dramatic but this is one of the best videos I've ever seen on Carl Jung and Buddhism, you presented everything coherently and in a beautiful way, thank you.

'When the student is ready the teacher will appear." Thanks for the lesson - exactly what I needed to hear, at the right time.

I believe that the Mahayana concept of dependent arising describes the deepest levels of the collective unconscious. No phenomenon can exist without the entirety of all other phenomena.

This juxtaposition of two of the most meaninful intellectual/psychological/spiritual influences in my life (Jung/Buddha) is one of the best videos I've ever seen on YouTube. I really enjoy the aesthetic and content of your videos. It's heartening to find profound and insightful content like this. Thank you. Please keep creating!

This was profoundly good. I’m in full agreement with the other commenters who say that this might be one of the best videos on YouTube. I always adore a cross pollination of thinkers because of the depth of knowledge and the audacity it takes to engage in such an original piece of work and I think you nailed the landing on this one. I know a lot about Jung and a good deal about Buddhism and am coming from this with a head full of thoughts. The fact that the video itself was immensely beautiful original and engaging just made the whole thing even more amazing. Kudos on an amazing piece of work

Keep doing this kind of content, seeker. We're all together on this mysterious journey!

Wonderful work!

Such a great marriage of western and eastern thought! I particularly love the modified perspective of the yin and yang symbol. I applaud your endeavor and express a profound gratitude for this wonderful gift!!🙏

Between Buddhism, Taoism and Jung, you have everything you need to have a balanced approach to spirituality, shadow work and meaning to existence. Thanks for the video ❤️🙏

Always good to learn about C. G. Jung he followed so much Alchemy, native Americans, African & Buddhism, taoism. This somehow reminds me how the late Alan watts put things across. 👍

A brilliant video which describes the links between Buddhism and Jung. I have been a practising Buddhist since 1980, and because I first became familiar with Jung's ideas around 1970, I naturally and inadvertently combined the concepts of Buddhism with Jung. In Madame Blavatsky's Theosophy (HQ International and Varanasi India) and Rudolf Steiner's Anthroposophy (HQ Switzerland and International) there is much description of The Akashic Records. The Akashic Records seem to be synonymous with Jung's Collective Unconscious at a national level, world wide level and cosmic-galactic level. I don't believe everything Madame Blavatsky and Rudolf Steiner write, but on a number of points they are spot on. I like Buddhism so much because I can withdraw using meditation into the 8 Buddhist Janas. Greetings from the UK.

This is a good write up and I enjoyed how you delved into this deeply. I would love to see you explore the collective unconsciousness from Jung in the future. Great work! It's a very high-production and captivating video on the subject.

Your videos are incredibly insightful, and I appreciate your narration and explanation style. I struggle with a short attention span, so it can be challenging for me to watch long videos. However, I genuinely wished that this particular video was longer because it was so engaging. Please continue producing such excellent content, and I appreciate your efforts. Keep up the good work, brother! ❤️

As a long time student and practitioner of the Budda’s teaching I must say that I’m enjoying your videos as they present the Buddha’s teaching as I have studied from the scriptures. Thank you for your work. I’ve already shared your videos with my friends.

"The sane outnumber the insane... a desperate arguement if ever there was one..." Thank you!! As someone who was put in a psych ward and called "schizo-affective" when I had a most profound spiritual awakening, this was balm to a tortured soul...

I'm amazed. This is without a doubt the best explanation of the five skandhas that I've ever encountered, and I've been studying Buddhism now for more than 20 years! It's so transparent and understandable, something I've been searching for for many years and have finally found here. A big thank you!

I'm experiencing and searching in books the things you are talking about 2 years now and i have to say that your content is so pure and u are giving very good details to the subjects in just 20'mins or so. Good job! channels like this boost the collective mind of the internet with wisdom for people to find it.

Very interesting introduction. I remember George Shearing, a well-known pianist (1919-2011), who was born blind, saying that it was a misconception that those who did not have sight could see black; he said blindness was like trying to see with your arm.
