If you open the door: you can create contact with the living mystery of the unconscious

Man must find the micro-macrocosmic connection.

Carl G. Jung
is considered as the first modern psychologist to state that the human psyche is by nature religious and to explore it in depth. 
Jung said, nowadays more and more people, especially those who live in large cities, suffer from a terrible emptiness and boredom, as if they are waiting for something that never arrives.
Movies and television (1961!), spectator sports and political excitements may divert them for a while, but again and again, exhausted and disenchanted, they have to return to the wasteland of their own lives.
"The only adventure that is still worthwhile for modern man lies in the inner realm of the unconscious psyche. 
With this idea vaguely in mind, many now turn to Yoga and other Eastern practices. But these offer no genuine new adventure, for in them one only takes over what is already known to Hindus or the Chinese without directly meeting one's own inner life center. "
"While it is true that Eastern methods serve to concentrate the mind and direct it inward (and that this procedure is in a sense similar to the introversion of an analytical treatment), there is a very important difference."
Jung evolved a way of getting to one's inner center and making contact with the living mystery of the unconscious, alone and unaided. 
That is utterly different from following a well-worn path, according to  Man and His Symbols. The book was Carl Jung's last work before his death in 1961, 
First published in 1964, it is divided into five parts, four of which were written by associates of Jung: Marie-Louise von Franz, Joseph L. Henderson, Aniela Jaffé and Jolande Jacobi.

Everyone lies in war

Traffic on the main bridge leading from Crimea to the Russian mainland came to a standstill in the morning due to explosions and deaths.

The Kerch Bridge, connecting Russia and the Crimean Peninsula has been closed after an incident in which portions of the bridge were damaged. Those officials are not saying what caused the damage, but some say the bridge was attacked by Ukraine.
According to the Ukrainian newspaper Ukrainian Pravda, the attack on the Crimean bridge was a special operation of the Ukrainian Security Service and the Navy. The newspaper says that it bases its information on the sources of the Ukrainian security service.
If true, that would mark the second time since October that Vladimir Putin’s prized $4 billion span has been attacked. The bridge was previously struck in October.
The 19-kilometer-long bridge connects the Russian-held Crimean peninsula with mainland Russia. The bridge is important for Russia, as it supplies military supplies to its troops in Crimea and the southern front of Ukraine.
Vacationing on the island is also making a comeback. That's a good reminder that the area a war zone.

Теперь Россия спотыкается о собственную логику - войны нет.

"Теперь для нас Финляндия - враждебная страна, созданная когда-то по недомыслию Лениным и вступившая сегодня в НАТО."
Засунь это!
"Почему "продолжают заклинать" о мире дляУкраины только? ..."
"если конфликтующие страны не принимают в НАТО, значит, конфликт будет перманентным .."
По мнению России, это спецоперация и объявления войны нет. 
По словам России, это спецоперация, и объявления войны не было. Таким образом, можно было бы направить Украине приглашение о вступлении уже с Вильнянской встречи НАТО.
