Breakthrough in persona system levels
What is it? That enforces the persona system (the folk idea system)in jungian psychology.
1st Level: What will the neighbours think 🤔?
Ohh. I should not do it this way or that way.what will the neighbours think?
I should not quit my study just because I am not interested in that.what will the neighbours think.
When the Sati would not throw herself at the husband’s funeral. What will the neighbours think 🤔?So we throw around the funeral.
2nd Level: Rules and conduct of institutions. Ohh I am a teacher and a teacher should not be so light or polite and so forth
Ohh I am a doctor.I must be looking like a serious temperament..What Yet Christ told his disciples, “Judge not, that ye be not judged.
Suppose that I am a railway ticket examiner and I unfortunately found a passenger without a ticket and he is requesting me about their excuses like his mom’s health is critical and it seems he is right but still does not let him go to their destination.Here, I am right according to the role (a ticket examiner)I am playing but I am totally wrong as a human being which makes a big circle around the circle of railway or any institution rules.
“You judge according to your persona context, and you will be judged in terms of it. Unless you can learn to look beyond the local dictates of what is right and what is wrong, you’re not a complete human being. You’re just a part of that particular social order.
Now, the individual in this system must fill a role within the order as dictated by the knowers of the order, the priestly group. They understand the order and decipher its pattern, while the individual participates as the priests dictate. This pattern is called, in Sanskrit, dharma. It is the order of the universe; the word dharma comes from the root dhr, which means “support.” The support of the universe is this order. As the sun should not wish to be the moon, as a mouse should not wish to be a lion, so the indi- vidual born into one caste, one category of society, should not wish to be anything else. The individual’s birth determines his role, his character, his duty, and everything else. In such a society, education consists of being trained to one’s proper role.
3rd Level:Then,we have the idea of nature. People speak nature’s moral laws.
Let me remind you of that moment in which Christ transcended all the laws. It is the story of His forty days in the desert. In this case, the Devil represented the Law that had to be transcended. The very first question the Devil put to Christ was, “Why don’t you turn these stones into bread?” Christ replies that man lives not by bread alone but by every word that comes from the mouth of God. He rejects the economic theory of the spiritual life, thereby refuting Bernard Shaw’s notion that one must be economically well-off before one can practice spiritual exercises.
In the second temptation, the Devil takes Christ up onto the mountain top, showing and offering to Him the lands of the world if He will bow down to him. And Christ says, “Get thee behind me, Satan,” thereby transcending the seduction of political power as life’s aim.
The Devil then takes Him up to the pinnacle of the temple, suggesting that if Christ is so spiritual, He can cast himself down and God will bear Him up. Christ rejects this temptation to spiritual inflation by saying, “You shall not tempt the Lord thy God.” Christ returns then from the desert to preach to the people the new message of the spirit, the message of love.
Just like Moses refused to sacrifice his son as God says in his dream to sacrifice his son.He refuge the notion of God.
And finally this represents the idea of transcendent,this is the sun door through which the soul goes burning out all the temperality into eternal life.
