This is somehow obvious if we abandon our human perspective for a moment and take a look at things from the level of species and evolution. People almost exactly like us existed in the past and will exist in the future. Constant recreation of reality that which was given/left to us by our ancestors is not the discovery of post-modern era but immanent part of our condition. From that quotation I see longing for a ritual and connection with our historic selves. But what constitutes our true identity is also very often extremely dangerous, animistic part of our psyche. I am talking about more or less realized necessity of being a part of some homogenous group, exercising conflict and domination etc. Every group has to form some mechanisms allowing its members to participate in this "identity building" activities simply in order to survive. Touching history in us we're touching the softest and most hidden elements of our identity - stereotypes, resentment, ghosts of our ancestors dancing around the fireplace with their faces painted in the colours of war.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3784321928448406790.post-30568155625095772992009-02-06T11:41:00.000-08:002009-02-06T11:41:00.000-08:00I'm reading that very book right now!

It's funny because when hearing the title of the album, for some reason I pictured a black and white color scheme for the new record, though these may just be un-colored yet. <BR/><BR/>Either way, it looks good!Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01797077931551244029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3784321928448406790.post-27321792597456971902009-02-03T10:06:00.000-08:002009-02-03T10:06:00.000-08:00For over 25 years, (1932-1958) Jung, and the physi...For over 25 years, (1932-1958) Jung, and the physicist Professor W.
