oh boy oh boy oh boy, pretty excited to be posting this one. Straight from the classroom (literally) a 2015 lecture by former Harvard & current (as of this post) tenured Toronto University Psych. professor Jordan Peterson on the personality. This one features as a sort of intro into Jungian thought (although part 6 in the overall series). Bit of a treat if you ask me, students sitting there listening actually paid money like suckers to do so and you get it for free! Has to count for something (like education?)

I haven't listened to it fully myself yet, but 20+ minutes in and it's already getting good & probably may be challenging/controversial (even disagreeable?) to some. If you don't think this is in any way related to aliens or UFOs, personally speaking I would politely beg to differ with you there (and will elaborate on that if called on it).

And let's face it, even if it isn't, a lot of what i post in this thread takes liberties with just how broad of a stroke across i brush to cover the topic. But is anything really "off topic"? In the grander scheme of things? Think about it. Just not too hard. That or ignore me, I'm being weird right now. 1hr20min in length, would love to hear any feedback. Probably won't but hey I've accepted & am good with that atp.

Came across this guy during my ventures into the recent broohaha over Canadian law re: the use of gender pronouns. If you google him that would be the first thing you'll see, but that really is straying too far afield for my liking, least for my purposes here. Please enjoy, and if you no likey then please do yourself a favor *clicky click* and it's gone forever from your world and your concern.

Obvs. by now, while I don't call myself a Jungian, if you've been pages deep in the thread you can tell I'm a fan. That said, I've always found Jung incredibly dense in his more difficult work (to say nothing of something like his red book which I've only really seen images of online a handful of times) re-reading sentences several times slowly, scratching my head at times, etc. but also one of the most rewarding psychologists to read in a real sense (again imo).

Gets into Piaget & Nietzsche so far also, other lectures avail. on his channel, several others all involving Psychology.

-edit- oop, happy to see I've excluded a Part 2! of the lecture on Jung (1hr14min). Working on the theory that more Jung is always better than not enough (fr. those seemingly more or less qualified enough to speak intelligently on him at any rate).

While I'm at it, this I found quite eloquent, 13min Ted Talk by the wonderful & beautiful actress (actor, to be proper i guess now w/ the term) Thandie Newton (<3 <3 ) whom I now have a new found appreciation of after listening to in this; called 'Embracing Otherness'

Partial to having your brain scrambled? In the mood for some mental pretzel twisty knot round abouts? Interested to hear a fresh new take on ego death? Enjoy watching cracks form in your belief system?

Then I've got just the thing for you.

More Jordan Peterson. I tried to keep up, and believe me it took a video pause or 2 to do it; but in staying with his train of thought i find he really comes around in the latter part of the interview with some sublime, deliciously uncomfortable just so's (so to speak). Or it did for me, in any case.

Transliminal yt. ch., 2hr35min.

Click on it if you dare, and I hope you do b/c personally found it quite enlightening, & slightly frightening. Agree w/ him or not; his brilliance is challenging to me, & i like that. I think. But also i don't? because it bothers me?

Maybe take it in increments as it is pretty lengthy, yt. saves your place usually anyways, but i do highly recommend checking it out. If you can punch holes in his theories all the better, that's what I've been attempting to formulate myself, and think I may have a couple leads, but regardless; real talk right here in my opinion.

His book (and a university course he teaches) is called 'Maps of Meaning' for anyone interested, also lectures fr. said course avail. on his yt. ch. His self authoring course for example apparently has a high rate of success, so it's not all talk; his methods (allegedly) produce positive net results, which is an important point to make i think. Honestly I'm dying to know what he'd make of UFO/paranormal phenomena, and as he did teach at Harvard I'm also curious if he knew Dr. John Mack, who also worked and taught there, whether or not their years at Harvard overlapped or whether he's looked at anything along those lines.

From ABC News, 2012; Actress Claims Being Abducted by Aliens (Fran Drescher) 4min.

Chinese, Taoist text first dated to sometime circa 1668-1692 (acc. to Wikipedia), The Secret of the Golden Flower

[Intro]


1995 Art Bell interview with George Knapp ( & Linda M. Howe for few min. to begin) 113min.

1996 Chris Lydon 'Connection' interview with John Mack. 52min.

'Arthur I Miller talks to Gene Heinemeyer about Deciphering the Cosmic Number, a book about two of the most important and influential figures in science in the 20th Century, physicist Wolfgang Pauli and analytical psychologist Carl Jung.

Radio interview first broadcast on 2nd May, 2009 as part of Gateways, Multicultural Radio Broadcasting. '

^ Arthur I Miller - 'Deciphering the Cosmic Number' , 47min.

[Interlude]



Synchronicity alert: threat level yellow, so we're good, still pretty compelling (to me at any rate).
I bought a book today, the following.






Watching a lecture I was just about to post here in the thread, a 2014 lecture by Martin Rees, 'Our Universe & Others', fr. vid description,"Public lecture from the mini-series "Cosmology and the Constants of Nature" from the "Philosophy of Cosmology" project. A University of Oxford and Cambridge Collaboration.

If you pause the ^ video at 11:11 you will see some interesting alignments betwixt the two (picture on slide fr. vid vs. thingy on the rocky hill on PKD book cover, same cover on my book). Also note sub-heading on slide & title of book also in near perfect conjunction. Talk is 50min. total length.

From PBS site; 1996 Nova interview with (the late Harvard Psychiatrist) John Mack, in text.

From 2008, Russell Brand interview David Icke on his radio show.
First interview (13min.) January 5th.

Giraffes now at vulnerable on extinction list? How can this be..

4 (brief) news pieces roughly a month ago from Al Jazeera, Time, ABC News & CNN. Al Jazeera takes top honors at spending an entire 2minutes on the story, clocking in at a mere 28seconds, ABC News takes briefest coverage dishonors. Other 2 are a minute a piece.

Brief vid. showing domesticated foxes in Russia. Upl. in 2011, 6min.

"These foxes have been domesticated for over 50 years, they are NOT wild animals and they wont be able to survive there either, see them as a fancy looking dog/cat."


[Outro]

Addendum to the synchronicity; the title of the telescope on the slide/picture in the 'Our Universe & Other Universes' lecture is, 'E-ELT : The European Extremely Large Telescope'.

From the back cover of the same PKD novel as above post contains the front cover (twice);
"What begins as a stroll on an overcast day turns into a whirlwind experience for a group of visitors to a laboratory. When a telescope's particle-light beam slices across their paths, each one of them enters a dreamlike odyssey..."

So not only do the objects in each look quite similar in shape & structure, they're both telescopes, which did not occur to me fully at first.

What's this? A visitor? Welcome LimJahey

Funny you should say that, I was just coming here to post the very thing (albeit 2nd hand evidence) I've come across a good resource at archive.org for some ufo stuff.

Sort of hit a semi mother load in terms of witness interviews, first link is, 'Cops & Saucers: Law Enforcement And UFO's 1957 1981 Guide'


From the page;
"This compilation of recordings deal with police officers who

have had close encounters with unidentified flying objects.. Sometimes an encounter
goes beyond seeing a strange object in the sky and literally has profound
changes for life of the law officer who came face to face with unknown objects
from the sky."

41 total interviews spanning the time period indicated in the title.


Second link from the same account at Archive.org, 'CE III Humanoid Encounters'

Fr. page,
"accounts of humanoids piloting flying saucers goes back many decades... This compilation deals with humanoid encounters that did not result
in known alien abductions."


This one contains 32 audio interview clips which are from 1948 - 1987. The user who posted both these ^ links gives a brief summary of each clip (which range fr. a few minutes to just over an hour) in chronological order.


Next is really interesting even from a cursory glance i had at it, 'ANOMALY, An Irregular Newsletter edited by John Keel' a repository of an old John Keel publication, containing many bizarre, fortean type news clippings incl. many, articles by Keel himself, I believe.

From the page;
"This series of of 11 newsletters and a supplemental issue, published between 1969 and 1974 is a real jewel for anyone with an interest in the writings of John Keel... It totals to over 200 pages of material, though most of it is photocopied reprints of stories that caught his interest... It was never sold by subscription, but he did make it available for a self-stamped, self-addressed envelope."


Public domain librivox audiobook narration of the 1950's book by Donald Keyhoe, 'The Flying Saucers Are Real',

from description;
"Donald E. Keyhoe, who relates here his investigation of the flying saucers, writes with twenty-five years of experience in observing aeronautical developments. He is a graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy at Annapolis... He flew in active service with the Marine Corps, managed the tour of the historic plane in which Bennett and Byrd made their North Pole flight, was aide to Charles Lindbergh after the famous Paris flight, and was chief of information for the Aeronautics Branch, Department of Commerce."

The font on SF is real weird to deal with sometimes, lol, it doesn't do what i want it to do.

But I digress, final installment this post is radio interview from 'Now That's Weird', broadcast in 2009, with Ufologists/ UFO researchers Bruce Lipton, Brian Allen & Paolo Harris.

Recommend forwarding to the 7:30 mark, as it's music & commercials straight time pretty much until then.

Looking forward to that Keel journal myself, which is great to flip through at this site, one of the better setups I've seen for digital magazine type program formats. Recommend hitting the enlarge once or so though, as the print is small with the default they give you, in my case anyways.
