Post No. 3,077 - Shadow work and ... parallels and the collective unconscious?

This is just a quick post about a thought for further exploration: 

how is, or could, shadow work be affected by our connections to our parallels/other soul  parts, and maybe even the collective unconscious?

If these connections - especially via the collective unconscious - are real impacts, it is further support for the views that no person is an island unto themself, and that we each bear collective responsibilities (probably along the lines of the common  but  differentiated  responsibilities doctrine, which basically means we are responsible for what we can do - for doing OUR bit, not for the overall outcome, as that is a group effort, and those with greater power/opportunity have greater responsibility [and “our bit” might include encouraging/urging/pressuring them to do THEIR bit]) and MUST make the world a better place rather than working on us and us alone. 

No Sentient Life left behind ... 

(There’s another thought about when species evolve or pass out of existence and how life transitions at that point [e.g., at what point in human evolution from other primates was it reasonable to say animal rights had become human rights?], but I’ll leave that for now ... )



Possible flaws 

Where I can, I will try to highlight possible flaws / issues you should consider: 

  • there may be flawed logical arguments in the above: to find out more about such flaws and thinking generally, I recommend Brendan  Myers’ free online course “Clear and Present Thinking” 
  • I could be wrong - so keep your thinking caps on, and make up your own minds for yourself.

 

If you appreciated this post, please consider promoting it - there are some links below, and theres also other options

Note that I am cutting back on aspects of my posts - see here

Remember: we generally need to be more human being rather than human doing, to mind our Mӕgan, and to acknowledge that all misgendering is an act of active transphobia/transmisia that puts trans+ lives at risk & accept that all insistence on the use of “trans” as a descriptor comes with commensurate use of “cis” as a descriptor to prevent “othering” (just as binary gendered [men’s and women’s] sporting teams are either both given the gender descriptor, or neither).
