Carl Jung, Synchronicity, Archetypes and UFOs | Bernardo Kastrup

Dr. Bernardo Kastrup returns to the mind meld!
@bernardokastrup is the executive director of Essentia Foundation. His work leads the modern renaissance of metaphysical idealism, the notion that reality is essentially mental.
Bernardo holds two Ph.Ds, one in philosophy (ontology, philosophy of mind) and another in computer engineering.
He's the author of several books including Science Ideated, Why Materialism Is Baloney, and Decoding Jung's Metaphysics, which features prominently in this mind meld.
In this one, we muse about the philosophy of Carl Jung, synchronicity, archetypes and why Bernardo believes Jung was clearly an idealist.
We also riff on the high strangeness and the UFO / UAP phenomenon and why it's so intriguing, yet troubling.

One of the most unique and least redundant interviews of Bernardo Kastrup. (I’ve seen them all.) Great job!

[leandrosilvagoncalves]

Bernardo kastrup has absolutely contributed to making philosophy one of my biggest passions.

[thefutureisnow]

All intellectual conversations, on any topic are possible when Dr Kastrup is available for discussion. I’m am so grateful to be able to bear witness to such a brilliant mind. Thank you for providing this. Thank you Dr Kastrup for you.

[ayougo]

I could listen to Bernardo expand on his thoughts all day.

[driggerfireon]

This host is the most sincerely whole mind engaged with his guest, his love for the subject matter is beautiful to see. That’s passion. That’s dedication.

2:19 Me too. I had a spiritual awakening in Albania and I followed the call to a new job and life in Myanmar. At first my ego resisted it. Now more and more I am in flow and connected and two weeks ago I realized my Daimon was revealing itself to me. Both in real life glimpses and dream images and synchronicity. I don't question it because like you I have enough hours of research with people like Bernardo, Jung, Ian Stephenson etc to go with the flow. Now my YouTube channel on life in Myanmar is taking off. Because I do it as a work of spiritual practice. Like Bernardo I see my work not as about me and my Ego but about telling stories for Myanmar and bringing light and joy. And the reverb is growing every day. I just follow the path. Soon I will give up my day job and just follow this journey. I no longer worry. I trust that I am where I need to be, doing what I need to do. The universe working thorough me. An Aunty Myanmar YouTuber. How amazing this journey of life is and I know that we are on the right path with Bernardo and the likes of yourself. Blessings from Myanmar Miss Liza

All around one of the better interviews with Bernardo—appreciated the intelligent and insightful questions by the host.

[ymgisi]

This is the best convo with Bernardo that I have listened to.

[CALCANEUS]

Can’t wait for this one. One of my favorite big thinkers sitting across one of the very best conversationalists and hosts in this space. Thank you to both of you. I’ll be listening once it releases today.

I feel compelled to share with you Michael and hopefully it extends to Dr. Kastrup, I listened to both mind melds with Bernardo twice over and I was so overwhelmed by the lingo and academia type references that are way beyond my understanding, right now at least. I googled Kastrup, his work, the definitons of analytical idealism, trying to understand it all and I was pleasantly surprised to find a website called Essentia that shares free videos and information explaining his theories. I am grateful to both of you for the free knowledge you share with the world! I very much struggle with articulating and just with words in general... im a more visual and intuition based human. So having Kastrup develop a cite that provides free content to understand these theories is a great gift to people with access to internet. Thank you!

I've had some very interesting experiences after dreaming about Jung many years ago. He's like the ferryman on the river of gnosis.

[RighteousMonk-mm]

Kastrup is the most intelligent person on earth. 💯

[christinaforras]

OK… I wasn’t going to share about this synchronicity experience, but then there was all this about the roses
🤣🌹💎
A couple years ago, it was August 8, Lions gate energy portal. I went for a day trip to Dallas with my boyfriend, and when we took off that morning, I was thinking about rose quartz and its metaphysical healing properties. I did a walking meditation in Dallas, barefoot; when I arrived back to the location my boyfriend was at, I walked around the yard, and underneath a tuft of grass there was a 3 sided pyramidal polished, rose quartz

Anxiety can be a gift and an invitation.. a wise nudge to align with true nature.

[zak]

Incredible conversation, thank you for this!

[lindaraereneau]

That is zen. "What is moving, the flag or the wind?" The answer: "Neither. It is the mind that moves."

[CALCANEUS]

Michael, keep doing what you’re doing. The work of the daimon in you is so resonating with me. Your art is evoking some the the most incredible, beautiful experience through the images and symbols you share and bring out in your guests. All you work is wonderful. This conversation is one of the very best/life changing ones I’ve ever heard anywhere.

[jakubkoper]

Love the channel. Love this guest. Hope your channel grows and grows ❤️

[alessiasalamina]

It's incredible how Dr. Kastrup makes these concepts accessible and relatively easy to digest.
