Individuation Quotes - Page 2

• Si los hombres quieren oponerse a la guerra, deben oponerse al estatismo. Mientras mantengan la noción tribal de que el individuo es carne de sacrificio para el colectivo, que algunos hombres tienen derecho a gobernar a otros por la fuerza y que algún (cualquier) supuesto "bien" puede justificarlo, no puede haber paz dentro de una nación ni paz entre las naciones.

• Asking the proper question is the central action of transformation- in fairy tales, in analysis, and in individuation. The key question causes germination of consciousness. The properly shaped question always emanates from an essential curiosity about what stands behind. Questions are the keys that cause the secret doors of the psyche to swing open.

  Clarissa Pinkola Estes

• The individuation of dharma practice occurs whenever priority is given to the resolution of a personal existential dilemma over the need to conform to the doctrines of a Buddhist orthodoxy. Individuation is a process of recovering personal authority through freeing ourselves from the constraints of collectively held belief systems.

• Ecology movements, futurism, feminism, urbanism, protest and disarmament, personal individuation cannot alone save the world from the catastrophe inherent in our very idea of the world. They require a cosmological vision that saves the phenomenon 'world' itself, a move in soul that goes beyond measures of expediency to the archetypal source of our world's continuing peril: the fateful neglect, the repression, of the anima mundi.

• Marriage is not comfortable and harmonious. Rather it is a place of individuation where a person rubs up against oneself and against the partner, bumps up against the person in love and in rejection, and in this fashion learns to know oneself, the world, good and evil, the heights and the depths.

  Adolph Guggenbuhl-Craig

  Love, Fashion, Evil

• The 'coming of the Self' is immanent; and the process of collective 'individuation' is living itself out in human history. One way or another, the world is going to be made a single whole entity. But it will be unified either in mutual mass destruction or by means of mutual human consciousness. If a sufficient number of individuals can have the experience of the coming of the Self as an individual, inner experience, we may just possibly be spared the worst features of its external manifestation.

  Edward F. Edinger

• My mandalas were cryptograms concerning the state of the self which was presented to me anew each day...I guarded them like precious pearls....It became increasingly plain to me that the mandala is the center. It is the exponent of all paths. It is the path to the center, to individuation.

  Carl Jung

• Esta ha sido mi lucha durante años: la tensión entre querer ser el centro de atención y, al mismo tiempo, marcar la diferencia en el mundo. Últimamente he llegado a la conclusión de que puedo ser una artista "egoísta" que se centra en cuestiones de individuación, poder y libertad.

• Paseando, me parece que la extrañeza y la maravilla de la existencia se acentúan aquí, en el desierto, por la escasez comparativa de la flora y la fauna: la vida no se amontona sobre la vida como en otros lugares, sino que se dispersa en la escasez y la simplicidad, con un generoso regalo de espacio para cada hierba y arbusto y árbol, cada tallo de hierba, de modo que el organismo vivo se destaca audaz y valiente y vívido contra la arena sin vida y la roca estéril. La extrema claridad de la luz del desierto es igualada por la extrema individuación de las formas de vida del desierto. El amor florece mejor en la apertura y la libertad.

• Every reader of the Conversations with the God is invited to self-select, that is, to choose themselves, to be among those who commit to moving forward their own individual and personal evolution by embracing and demonstrating behaviors that serve to awaken the species to who and what human beings really are Individuations of Divinity, and how that may be made manifest in our experience.

• All birth means separation from the All, the confinement within limitation, the separation from God, the pangs of being born ever anew. The return into the All, the dissolution of painful individuation, the reunion with God means the expansion of the soul until it is able once more to embrace the All.

• La imagen de Dios en el hombre no fue destruida por la Caída, sino que sólo fue dañada y corrompida ("deformada"), y puede ser restaurada mediante la gracia de Dios. El alcance de la integración queda sugerido por el descensus ad inferos, el descenso del alma de Cristo a los infiernos, cuya obra de redención abarca incluso a los muertos. El equivalente psicológico es la integración del inconsciente colectivo, que forma parte esencial del proceso de individuación.

• In a sense, a cyborg has no origin story in the Western sense – a ‘final’ irony since the cyborg is also the awful apocalyptic telos of the ‘West’s’ escalating dominations of abstract individuation, an ultimate self untied at last from all dependency, a man in space.

• Today’s milestone is human madness. Politics is a part of it, particularly in its lethal outbursts. Politics is not, as it was for Hannah Arendt, the field where human freedom is unfurled. The modern world, the world of world war, the Third World, the underground world of death that acts upon us, do not have the civilized splendor of the Greek city state. The modern political domain is massively, in totalitarian fashion, social, leveling, exhausting. Hence madness is a space of antisocial, apolitical, and paradoxically free individuation

  Julia Kristeva

• Freud made the discovery- quite genuinely, simply through working on his own material- that the more deeply one explores the phenomena of human individuation, the more unreservedly one grasps the individual as a self-contained and dynamic entity, the closer one draws to that in the individual which is really no longer individual.
