Freudian/Jungian Dialogue with Don Carveth Part II
Q: Do you think psychoanalysis is helpful, helps people to feel more love for their neighbor as well? Is that a part of this love cure?
If it's functioning properly, yes. However, there are people trapped by their narcissism that psychoanalysis can't reach effectively.
S4E4 Secular Christ | What is Spirit?
Q: How does this idea connect to conscience?
Conscience is part of divine knowledge, but it is too small a category; we are discussing a greater understanding.

Q: In what way, what role does the life of Jesus have in the contemplative life of a mystical Christian?
The life of Jesus plays a significant role as it must not be left behind; reflecting on his crucifixion and resurrection is essential in understanding the fullness of Christian mysticism.
Jung on death and the great adventure ahead (audio clip)
Q: What advice would you give to people in their later life to enable them to do this, when most of them must in fact believe that death is the end of everything?
It's better for old people to live on, looking forward to the next day, as if they have to spend centuries, so they live properly without fear.

Q: Could you share a bit about your background that led you to become today a priest in the Christian community?
