They both went crazy at the peak of their lives. Why should i take anything they wrote into consideration?
Only a madman would follow what another madman said.
>>

Nietzsche most likely had a hereditary stroke disorder. I don't see how "You'd have to be crazy to read his writing" follows from that.
>>
Nietzsche collapsed after he finally vented all his realization that christkeks have destroyed mankind.
>>
Jung was never mentally ill and never went crazy.
>>

He went crazy while writing that Red something book

What is madness OP?
Have you ever done something you deem to be mad?

you don't need to do anything, their works have already shaped your world in ways you can't even fathom

>people who spend their whole life in the familiar and comfortable, carefully procuring an appearance of normalcy both unto themselves and to the world, feigning ignorance to what is dark or unsightly, are the only ones worth listening to

Jung recovered. And his descent into psychosis was deliberately induced, in the name of learning. It was a calculated risk that paid off magnificently.
Jung's balls were an order of magnitude bigger than Nietzsche's. This is rarely recognised.
>>
>>25323968
Jung admitted to being overwhelmed by the unconscious material he unearthed, such that he feared for his own sanity.
A lesser mind might have succumbed, but not /ourguy/.
>>
what's the point in having 20 different threads of people pretending to be retarded. what do you get out of posting something you put no thought into about something you've already decided not to understand.
>>
>>25323759
>>25323968
Yet he came back to sanity after and wrote his masterpiece before dying

>be a bitter attention seeking asshole
>psy-op people into thinking popular thinker was le guilt le repressed resentment with your dogshit made up esoteric theories
could be a description of any christian priest in the past 20 centuries.

is there a /lit/ recommended book chart/list for Jung?
>>
>>25325136
i took a course on Jung and aside from his biography all of the books were written by other people, which i found weird. i can list them off if you like. i think Peterson says Part IX of his collected works is the meat of it though
>>
>>25325136
Read "Inner Work" Robert Johnson as a primer then dive into The Portable Jung. That should be satisfactory for teaching the basics.
>>
>>25325145
>aside from his biography all of the books were written by other people
You have it arse-backwards. It's his biography that was written by someone else (Aniela Jaffé). His Collected Works are anthologies of his own lectures, essays and academic papers.
>>
>>25323961
he truthnuked himself into catatonia, sucks
>>
>>25326132
He got truthnuked by his own unconscious, which was sick of his delusional shit.
>>
>>25326139
I see it a a hermetic thing maybe. Like he realized I've said to much, and the reasonable thing is a sort of vow of silence. filtered through the guys own personal mental health issues and everything ofc
>>
>>25326139
>>25326150
senpai had a hereditary condition his whole adult life stop it with the metaphysical masturbation
>>
>>25326159
This is cope. Jung had the measure of Nietzsche all along. His Will to Power was destined to fail because his unconscious had other ideas.
Instead of becoming what he was, he tried to become what he wanted to be. This is always doomed to failure.

Nietzsche is not someone that should be taken seriously. But he is an amazing writer. He's probably the best German writer. You should read it the same way you read fiction. That's it.

Unless you're an edgy 16 year old kid.
>>
>>25326198
uh oh what would jung say about this completely unrelated nonsensical response?
>>
>>25324557
It's a common form of newfaggotry where they ask a question but already have an answer prepared. Endless "desire to "debate"".
>>
Honestly, /x/ anon is right. If you want discussion on anything even remotely related to parapsychology and the supernatural, you will not find civil discourse on /lit/ where newfags like that always reply with some gay faggot sissy "clapback". He probably worships some god deity figure too.
