The Gnostic
Jung and the Seven Sermons to the Dead 1. The first conclusion
is that a pneumatic or spiritual, or more than
personal element is an organic part of the human psyche, (i.e.; THE UNCONSCIOUS
MIND IN US). 2.
The second conclusion is that this spiritual element, (i.e.; THE
UNCONSCIOUS MIND), carries on an active dialogue with the personal element of
the self-hood (i.e.; THE CONSCIOUS MIND), through the use of symbols. 3.
The third conclusion is that the symbols proceed from the pneumatic
component of the soul, (i.e.; THE UNCONSCIOUS MIND), reveal a path of spiritual
or psychological development, which can be traced, not only backward toward a
cause in the (ANCIENT PREVIOUS
EXISTENCE), past, but forward to a goal in the future (IN WHAT IS NOW A
DIRECTED EVOLUTION FOR MANKIND).
Rene' Descartes realized that because he was aware that he thought, because he could believe he, himself, was thinking
these doubts about everything else existong, therefore, he was certain he, himself, must exist. From there, he reasoned that
through messages or sensations or the sensory data that informed him that some "other" entity was intercoursing with him continuously. Since he was certain of his own existence, then these stimuli to which he reacted and the reponses to to his own actions
evidenced that there was something other than himself that existed. Descartes failed to identify this "other" as the almighty Reality to which he would find he must bow down and serve or
die.
