This video is priceless. It really has made my day.

I found myself hovering between laughing and weeping through what is a superb and highly entertaining piece of Indian satire.

"bin Laden is paid to be an enemy" and lot more perceptive stuff - all sung and danced to catchy Indian backing and choreography.
Peter Presland

Loved it, thanks Peter.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
Carl Jung - Aion (1951). CW 9, Part II: P.14
