Carl Jung (how functions function (dominant function is carried by the…

- - - - COMPLEXES a sub personality formed by cluster of content coming together, individual may have a strong preoccupation with it.
      - Split personality, Independent individualities
      - Autonomous Partial systems created out of excess psychic energy that the conscious cannot control
      - Persona vs the ego (persona is the encounter into the world, whereas the anima and animus are the paths into the unconscious... meeting with the shadow vs meeting with the anima)
      - SHADOW - sexual and aggressive tendencies; negative attributes that we project on others but dont accept for themselve; not always negative but in conflict with persona; conscious vs repressed
      - anima/animus the male shadow is the female animus, and female shadow is the male anima
      - SELF
        
        the self emerges when the anima (diff meaning) rises from the UC and is accepted into the conscious. it's a profound process at the end of which complexes are resolved and lose the ability to posses the individual
        
        pscyhe has the purpose of unifying the unconscious and conscious, it had to lead to individuation(self realisation) whereby each complex receives equal opportunity to express itself and expand. If a single complex receives too much libido (or life force) it essentially comes to posses the individual and becomes a disorder.
        
        attainment of the self is the ultimate goal of life
        
        Mandala is the artistic representation of the reconciliation of the opposites and fusion of the C and UC.
        
        when personality develops like this, it is called indivduation process wherein the self has to be protected from the persona and the suggestive power of the UC
        
        the center of personality is no longer the ego but is a midpoint between the C and the UC (or a point on the spectrum b/w C and UC)
        
        self develops out of inner conflict after years of trials and experience
    - - ARCHETYPES cognitive categories / predispositions humans are born with; primodal images; Great mother, Child Hero, Wise old man
      - Mythological Motifs (dreams of mankind as a whole)... motifs are srchetypes that become conscious through symbolisation
      - collective spirit that is essentially unconscious, cannot be described in the conscious but meaning may be circumscribed,
      - helps in the understanding of the preconscious which existed before the Psyche did.
      - memories of a race, mentalities of members, inherited, (germans are violent because of their pre-Christ god Wotan)
      - then he refuted the organic arguments and stated that there is a prephysiological, pre material cosmic level which gradually develop into the biological and psychic structures (autonomous functioning systems are also developed developed in the pre material state, known as symbols.
      - archetypes are the core of the Autonomous functioning system and once activated, it becomes the core of the individual's consciousness.
      - Is a inherited universal idea that makes up part of our collective UC
    - - JUNG vs FREUD; basic drive as self preservation vs sexual pleasure (first five years are self preservation, then the libido gets directed into the sexual urges, rest of the life, extroverted.. after forties it turns into philosophical questioning and introverted)
      - Symbols are manifestation of excess of libido expressed through cultural phenomenon
      - emerge in the unconscious through intuition and revelation and if they are accepted by the ego, they become the guiding force
  - - - FREUD = repressed wishes
      - ADLER = dreams foreshadow future actions
      - JUNG = prophetic anticipations of the future

      - Advocated corporation between Rational conscious and irrational Unconscious
      - Disagreed with Freud's application of studying the three realms through the scientific process of rationality and emperical reasoning.
        Freud was still studying just the conscious manifestations of the dream
      - believed that Unconscious process cannot be studied/represented through conscious process of thought, reasoning etv
      - Didn't believe the reality principle
      - Unconscious is commensurate with world of outer experience, is diffused but binds people not only with each other but their anscestors
      - Causation Vs Teleology result of the past vs creates own future
