What we are living through here in Israel is a Perfect Example of the Disaster Consequences as in Extreme And Final Stage Violence of 2 big shadows of Collective Unconsciousness = War real bloody war with many Young Victims or the Very Opposite of Life.

And what you quoted Carl Jung that we basically are doomed to Self-Destruct despite the Best Intentions - unless we labor to achieve Identity Resolution (e.g. the Integration of the Shadow or "The Klippah" and our Generic Human Killer Program including our Life long fear of Death acquired from our Caregivers and the Whole Culture - yet nothing and almost noone mentors us effectively to be Watchful of the Shadow Tactics of the "oh well "our Own Shadow. To live with the Dark Side and harness its power for good - aye there is the Rub or what the Sufis call it: Inner Jihad. And that is what Torah Observant Jews are doing - Battling within to Conquer the Evil Inclination or The Split Consciousness of a Walled in and sort-of cut off from Reality False Object Self ("better suceed and become somehow a Success and a Winner despite being Dysfunctional and Disorganized) .

Better be Victorious and Get Control of the Control Room - our Mind and Soul. And our Daily Life-Affirming Habits. In short its Love, Natural Intelligence, Wisdom, Kindness and Justice, and Enlightenment that makes the World go Round.

Blessings!
