Description
In this episode we return to Jung's mystical "Red Book" and recount 2 of his "visions." We meet (and kill) a destitute man and then chat with a monk in the desert. Through these experiences Jung comes to realize he exists as two worlds--one conscious, the other unconscious, one individual, the other collective, one as being, the other becoming. He can no longer hold on to the one-sided image of himself and of God that we wants to. He can no longer think of them as all good or as only its highest manifestation...he must complete the picture, embrace the whole and recognize that he is a "piece of the darkness" too.
Enjoy :)
