THE CAUSE OF GLOBAL DEPRESSION IS WESTERN CULTURE
So the article (in pic and linked in comment) begins good and shows that it’s a lack of hope which comes from purpose that causes depression. And not the other way around as the western pharmaceutical psychiatric approach now entertains. Where is believed that changing the brain chemistry will create a lack of depression (without hope).
But the ending is not right; the purpose that is needed to want to live, is a purpose of a more spiritual nature like by indigenous peoples. It’s a more mythological purpose because this is what transcends space and time and is the only true inside out elixir which lifts us out of the 3-D. this is what basically Jung referred to when he said that the western culture was suffering from a spiritual disease in that the western culture lost its mythological foundations as in the framework, the quantum/spiritual framework within which indigenous cultures live, which gives them true meaning and purpose, or to put it more accurately a true higher purpose. It’s impossible to live without a deeper Meaning. This is also why the spreading of western culture which according to Eddinget and Hillman, which are who held the guard after Jung, they said that the western culture traded its true, true mythological, framework or purpose for technology and the machine. Which is selling itself as an upside down spirituality and immortality but is the full loss of soul. Hence what we are looking forward to within Western culture is a vision of trans humanism where the human basically is downgraded to a machine merging with the machine AI or robot and this is single-handedly now the (lack of) “myth” of the West, which is actually the lack of a myth, lack of a spiritual higher purpose: the void it has fallen into. This is why western culture is causing the west to go into a very profound deadly depression. Hence, it is basically now a culture of addictions, as in the escape from this existential crisis or emptiness. Paradoxically technology has become its very escape from the very void it is itself creating.
This is why Jung after visiting extensively with the indigenous saw that the only cure for western depression is the route of individuation where we via shadow work we reconnect to higher purpose and Self with the capital S, which is the spiritual or mytho/psychological core. This is the Self if you wish outside of space in time. This is what technology is using the quantum computer for but is landing us in an upside down transcendence. this is also why we are witnessing the west and actually now the whole world (because the west as we find in Jung did make this cycle to shadow work in order to return to the indigenous core, which is the mythological purpose); but it got stuck at the shadow level and so couldn’t show the way forward to self; while the east did not make the cycle to the shadow, but went out of space and time without shadow, which created a complete different set of existential problems, and issues.
So it is this Outlook or one could say Barren Outlook, which we see now manifesting in a culture, which does not procreate (not create) anymore, that we we turn into machinery, that is the very main source of depression and a west that doesn’t want to live anymore.
We are seeing this in what they are calling an epidemic of mental health yet it is coming from this spiritual malaise, which the west has now spread out over basically the entire world. (Link to Article in comment)
