David... I'll probably pick this time up in the next month or so....

When it comes to "spiritual experiences" the Carl Jung reach was far and wide.

Jung had a profound impact with one of the two original founders of Alcoholic Anonymous, William 'Bill' Wilson... Without Jung's intervention with another early member of AA, I doubt we'd see the AA program, and its astounding successes as it is known today. He sent this particular acute alcoholic on his way after a full year of in-depth therapy. His parting words we're along the lines of "I can't help you (the acute alcoholic), you need some sort of a spiritual experience, your only chance for recovery."

The final link was forged for the AA program... 2 million+ world-wide members these day's

Have a wonderful holiday season....

McLuhan wrote about television and moving images as becoming ever more the main source of experience for most people. I've noticed people really do think they know what happened after watching films like Gandhi, JFK, Malcolm X or the Killing Fields, or even the Year of Living Dangerously. The cinematic experience of a drama stands in for knowledge of facts for most people these days. This is a dangerous confusion of reality and fantasy, the imposition of psychosis on the masses who have been trained not to treat the experience of moving images, their experience within the media stream, critically.

Thanks, David, for that scintillating glimpse/review. My putting that suggestive thought into my RAS has already borne fruit (lol). On the basis of your review, I am officially jealous and now am much more likely to ask Santa if he will bring me a copy. After all, he's dressed in red, and the book is red, and when it gets here, it will be read (and likely shared and treasured).

Thanks David and Ed. I hope I haven't lifted expectations too much, but for me the book is a real treasure. I'm sure it will have to be read with due care and attention and with the expectation that some of the images (both pictorial and descriptive) will cause a deep reaction in the psyche.

Happy dreams both.

Check out the spook use of holograms in the sky in Norway
to glorify Obama as God's chosen man of peace. Note the
Yin Yang symbol over Norway yesterday.

Is that what that is? I thought some guy had too much egg nog before he went out chemtrailing. Spirals can symbolize the irruption of the collective unconconscious, Charlie Young wrote in his Wise Guy and His Cymbals.

This must be important. The nightly tv news tried to debunk it.
They used Navy personnel saying it likely was a Russian missile.
out of control.

This is unlikely. A video of it shows it moving around in the sky
for about 20 seconds, neither advancing nor receding, but spiraling
and changing shape as it wandered around the sky.

Here is another view of the apparition which was
viewed by thousands in Norway while Obama was
there.
