ABSTRACT The author presents a comprehensive framework in philosophical psychology known as Jungian philosophical psychology. This approach marks a departure from the Cartesian-Kantian worldview and is firmly rooted in the collective unconscious rather than the ego-I pole of consciousness.

ABSTRACT The One, by theoretical physicist Heinrich Pas, reviews the history of monism from the Greeks to the modern period. Pas proposes a monism he calls “the One.” His One follows from quantum mechanics. It is a universal wave function. He is then faced with how our everyday world arises.

ABSTRACT Shamanism is generally considered to be humankind’s original religious practice. Centuries of Russian oppression followed by more recent exposure to Western media culture may have weakened the transmission of traditions of the Sakha people in Arctic Siberia, but a new generation of Sakha healers still strives to keep their traditions alive in a modern world. These contemporary healers...

The “Maid of Desolation,” driven by matricidal heroic thinking, is flooding our collective consciousness by way of the coronavirus, an ethical wakeup call that holds not only unfathomable tragedy but also the possibility of transformation and rebirth. Shifting to another way of being requires that patriarchal consciousness undergo a sacrifice, an ego death. Jung makes three major psychological...
