    I'm with you all in agreeing with AlanF, I couldn't word it any better. I'm always conscieous of how I say things to people especially so of friends. And I can take correction to depending on how it's dealt. We can all use constructive advice at times.

    I'm thinking of the kind of law of pairs of oposites. Dvandva(sanckrit).

    The more we swing from the center of the pair the more we unbalance the pyhchic energy in short I'm saying we think too much. You need the intellectual part to think about what is right but you must not stiffle intuition,,because if you stiffle intuition you cut yourself of from the collective unconsciousness. At least that what I think Jung was saying.

    Not sure I have understood everything you said Frankies but :

    but it seems that intuition doesn't rime with collective ("collective" is more "influence" related to feeling not intuition)

    FBF,

    It wasn't meant to ryme. I was trying to put in words what I'm learning about Carl Jung. I don't know if I did a good job but I figure give it a shot.

    We westeners need to pay more attention to intuition because it is connected to the (sub)unconscious. We think way too much,, it is not healthy,,causes nerveous breakdowns,,very counterproductive in the long run..

    Yes, I'm very loyal to the people I love and to those I care about. And even people I might not care too much for or have much in common with, still, I'm always willing to give credit where it is due.
