Danny LoveFire Thoughts of 2013 07 01
Paraphrased from Jung
"To develop ones own personality is indeed an unpopular undertaking,...But as a rule these personalities are as a rule the legendary heroes of mankind...Their greatness has never lain in their abject submission to convention, but, on the contrary, in their deliverance from convention. They towered up like mountain peaks above the mass that still clung to irs collective fears, its beliefs, laws, and systems, and boldly chose their own way. To th man in the street it has always seemed miraculous that anyone should turn aside from the beaten track with its known destinations, and strike out on the steep and narrow path leading into the unknown. Hence it was always believed that such a man, if not actually crazy, was possessed by a daemon or a god....What is it, in the end, that induces man too go his own way and to rise out of unconscious identity?....It is what is commonly called vocation....Vocation acts like a law of god from which there is no escape. The fact that many a man who goes his wn way ends in ruin means nothing to one who has a vocation. He must obey his own law.....In most cases it is impossible to explain to the others what has for any understanding is walled off by impenetrable prejudices. “you are no different from anybody else!”, “there is no such thing”, “ it is “purely physiological”.....The mechanisms of convention keeps people unconscious....When new conditions arise that are not provide for under the old convention, then, just as with animals, panic is liable to break out....Personality, however does no allow itself to be seized by the panic of terror. It is able to cope with the changing times, and has unknowingly and involuntarily become a leader."
