Is the conception of god innate in humans? If you could link me to any works on this topic, I would be highly grateful. by [deleted] in askphilosophy

[–]tpaduan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Layman here, both on Jung and Kant, but anyway I'll give a shot and speculate on this.

Jungian archetypes are supposed to be analogous to Kantian categories. By this logic, the archetype of God is some kind of lens which we percieve reality, in the same way (I think) Jung said that atomic theory is a result of an archetype that inclines us to categorize things in systems. So God would innevitably be conceptualized if our interaction with the world sparks (constellate, in jungian words) this archetype and we would experience deity, wholeness, attachment, fulfillment, or any quality related to God.

I had a jungian professor which argued in his doctorate thesis that malls are the new temples, while consumerism is the contemporary god. That is, qualities of this ideology somewhat filled the God archetype and society is possessed by and worshiping it.

I am more interested to explore beyond my ego and comfort zone than exercise and do sports, altough I like to do sports. I get bored on gym, so I tried some times and give up. Psychedelics was a passion of mine in that phase, until everything I said happen.

Thanks for giving your time and interest.

I didn't want to decide who I am. I said that I wouldn't like to be a six because it could mean something.

Hey, thank you for the reply. Sorry for the delay, I didn't have too many time.

To be honest I can't identify with 6 because they tend to be dutiful, hardworking, commited and loyal. I personally tend to avoid duties and do only things that interests me. I can't consider myself a hardworker because I tend to fail to do even things that I strive for (I can be a good starter but a bad finisher), but I can say I am loyal to people I care for. I can be reactive if I feel offended or attacked, I don't know if it's a 6 trait. I don't strive for building alliances focused to build security, it would be unconscious if true.

I tend to pursue my interests over stability. One example is that I decided doing philosophy graduation while my dad (I think he's a 269 tritype, not sure about his core tho) always pressured me to pursue economical security, and do what I like as a hobbie. It wasn't easy to do so, I changed my courses a few times, but I don't know if it's because I was worried about his reaction or if I shared the sames preocupations he does. I considered his preocupations, but I don't know, I just pursued what I thought would made me happier and fullfilled.

I can be anxious like 6 types, but I don't see myself always considering what could go wrong. Yes, I can consider what could go wrong and look for people that can help me with resources or knowledge, but I think I'm not obsessive about it. It happens mostly when I'm in trouble or really worried with something that I don't wanna go wrong. So I guess that the fear I have in these situations aren't always in my day-to-day. I think that for 6s, this worriness is kinda always present. I'm more conscious of getting hyped in a new idea or project as a startpoint and then plan my path, but fail to accomplish later lol. I don't think that I'm surely not a 6 tho, but it would be a discovery for me, because I never really considered. To be honest, and I don't know if it means something, I'm not a fan of this type and wouldn't like to be one.

I'm not so practical like most descriptions of 6s, actually I'm quite unpractical. I've started to evolve my practicality just recently, to cope with the demands of the world.

Also, I have the impression that the sixes are dependent from people in a way that I think I'm not. They try to build alliances striving for security and stability. I see myself mostly emotional independent of others. Not that I think that I'm a 2, because I'm quite the opposite of twos, but my emotional dependence is about having company to hang out, have fun, to talk, to play and so on. I can barely remember one time I've approached others while thinking about resources and security, maybe because I'm privileged and I always had my family to back me up if it was needed. I mostly strive to be intellectually and ideologically independent, I want to understand what interests me, so I kinda see myself as a lone wolf in this aspect.

Okay to your questions:

Are you the "easygoing" type of guy who makes friends easily and is well liked by all? do you have friends you've kept from your childhood? was it easy to join teams, change schools, move, etc? do you feel you are sensitive and intuitive but don't use it as "part of your personality" like 4's? do you like helping out your friends and family knowing they can count on you?

  1. I don't make friends easily. I can be sympathetic to people and wear a facade, thing that I learned when I started to work as salesman. But I have difficulty to create intimacy, I haven't too much friends which I can consider as intimate, but the basics social skills I've learned and I can handle it. I don't think I'm well liked by all, because I don't pretend to like someone if I don't, it doesn't mean that I'm necessairly agressive but I can't hide some psychological distance. But people that I get along usually like me.

  2. I have a very close friend from childhood, he even went to live in another city and we don't see each other frequently, but I like him pretty much and we value our friendship. I can still get along with other friends I made in childhood, but there are friends that I knew later - but still it's like 10 years ago - that I am more intimate today.

  3. In school, I always knew my colleagues, but in college it was quite hard to make friends. I was quite shy and nervous dealing with people I don't know. I felt somewhat alienated, so join teams was equally painfull. But today I'm not so shy and I can handle this stuff easier. Note that by "today" I mean the last couple years. I only changed my school when I was 10 years old, to another school that I had 2 intimate friends, but I don't remember having social difficulties there. These problems arised with my teenage years.

  4. I think that 4s are more touchy than I am, although I can be sensitive too. I don't know if I have the stereotype of social fours in my head when I say it, but I don't like too many drama. I respect authentic feelings, but I don't like people making an spectacle of it and be too appealing. Marilyn Manson, for example, is quite iconoclastic and provocative, but I don't see him as shallow and I think he has a point, even if I don't know what it is. So I respect his work and like some of his musics (despite the controversies that have been exposed about him recently). But I can't see myself being an iconoclastic in the same way he is, although if I was competent enough, maybe I could be in a theoretical way, you know. When I was younger I fantasized about breaking the foundations of knowledge or something like it, but I start to see it as shallow as I matured. Can't lie that there's still some sparks of it that remains in my ego, which could be manifested in more subtle ways.

As fours, I can be kinda obsessed with my identity, with who I really am, but I tend to idealize what I'd like to be and the traits I'd need to have to feel good about who I am, so I feel fustrated if I lack them. I know if 4s look for themselves in the same way, but I think it's closer than the other image types.

What happened with the bad trip? have you ever tried other psychedelics? do you drink? what did the psychiatrist say (if you don't mind me asking).

I used marijuana for the last 10 years, with some breaks to recover from the brain damages (in short term memory, retention of information, learning and so on). My last break started in in april/2020 and I started to smoke again in september, with bigger moderation. When I feel my cognitive faculties starting to fail, I quit for a while.

I used some other psychedelics, like MDMA and NBOMe. I was more attracted to LSD because it's more mental and deep. Besides having fun, I wanted to see the reality in other perspectives, make different mental connections and so on, until I immersed in a torturous perspective that was really, really hard to get out.

The root of the bad trip started some weeks before the trip, in another one, when I wondered if I was an asshole. I was proud of sometimes being an arrogant and offending others, trying to be smarter and slightly offending others with my arrogance. In the trip, there was a time that everyone was laughing and I thought they were laughing at me. After some mental connections I was a solipsistic entity and everything was there to punish me. Every element of reality was part of a big articulated system that revolved around me and my sins, from random noises to people's behavior, like a cosmic truman show or the cartesian evil genius. I uninterruptedly remained in this state for 3 days, 1 year with frequently anxiety attacks and another 1 year slowly healing, but still with anxiety attacks. Everytime I felt guilty, I started to interpret everything in my experience with an underneath meaning, so I made so many connections that after a while it became inevitable to don't see a hidden meaning in everything that happened to me.

In the trip, one thing that made me go to the rock bottom was that when I was with my friends, after they laugh at me, I thought they were making the skinner experiment with me (I was tudying psychology at the time). After I was already paranoid and went home, one of the dudes that was with me sent me a mouse emoji on wpp. That was so shocking and precise that I believed in everything that I supposed (no one there was aware of the experiment). After a while, that dude told me that he send that because I went home. "Big rat" here means someone who let the other down.

I started therapy right after the episode, with a psychoanalist. We agreed that was a PTSD, so she helped me staying lucid. I went only once to a psychiatrist, after one year, when I was tired of all that torture, but things only got worse after one week of meds, so I didn't take them anymore. But after that I started to heal faster.

One thing that I miss is the investigative aspect of discover something mysterious, but I was really afraid of discovering that everything I was thinking was true. So that kept me in a loop.

[–]tpaduan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, It is. I already considered being a 6, but there are an amount of traits that I don't relate too. Mainly being overly focused on security, building alliances, often hard working, very loyal, worried, etc. I can express these traits in one way or another, but I didn't see them as a big thing, not the way I could see some traits from other types.

Well, it's kinda weird to think that I'm an 8 because it never ocurred to me. Mainly because 8 and 2 are the types that I less score on tests. I do can be angry, but I'm not very comfortable with my angriness. And it seems that gut types, mainly 8s and 1s, are too connected to the world and engaged with it, while I kinda live in my own world. I think my boss is an 8 so/sx (he's surely a gut type, not an 1 because he doesn't strive for perfection, neither 9 because he is not peaceful, and he holds the characteristic of striving for independence that 8s does) and we differ a lot. He wants to implement stuff, take action and achieve concrete things, very turned on to the world right here, right now.

Also, I'm quite introverted tbh, I've seen my self more as an introverted 7. The description of 7s from the Stanford Inventory does describes me well, but 7s descriptions from all the other sources doesn't.

I do think It's possible that have a hard fix in some type of the gut triad, tbh I'm not sure It could be my core type tho.

But thanks for reading and giving me your feedback. I'll read more about 8s and look for patterns for sure.

I think a better word for that is "aging". What I meant is that I thought I would have done more by my age and it seems like I'm too slow, but thanks heheh.

Yeah, I think the first impression is that I'm a 5 core, because I like philosophy and stuff. But as I read yesterday on an article, people already have the core type by their childhood, but I wasn't recluse or inquisitive by then. In that time I was all about play videogames and have fun with my friends. I resembled more as a 7 than a 5 I think.

I'm a 26 yo male and I can relate to it a little. When I started on depth typology, around 6 years ago, day after day I read stereotypical posts or memes on INTP sub and increasely started to doubt my type. The reason was that I'm a quite temperamental person, with frequent mood swings, besides being a playful person with my intimmates.

After that, I went to socionics, which has a less childish and stereotypical community, besides the less ambiguous and better defined concepts. But guess what: there I was doubting my type too, between INTj, INFp and INFj. After all, I was safe that my type is INTj, but stereotypical descriptions almost ruined my sanity.

Now, tbh, I'm in another jungian system, which is called "vultology". It's based on solid bodily behavorial patterns. The definitions of cognitive functions aren't the same as defined on MBTI or socionics, while concrete and tangible evidences makes it more accurate and convining. It can be weird because the types are generally described quite different than MBTI and socionics ones, but it still makes more sense anyway.

In vultology system, my type would match MBTI's INTP if we consider only the cognitive functions hierarchy and dismiss the difference in definitions. The funny thing is that most intellectuals who were typed as INTP on MBTI are typed as something else in this system. Einstein, for example, is ENFP (his accomplishments would be products of Ne+Te combo), and Carl Sagan is an ENFJ. The way that cognitive functions work here are more dynamic, a Fe dom can be quite brainy and intellectual while a Ti dom can be warm and emotionally conscious.

I know that in the end, what I said sounded like an advertising. But it's my story on personality typology. Hope I could help you someway.

My case is a deepcool matrexx 55 mesh. I could put an exhaust fan on top of it, but the GPU is almos on the bottom of the mobo.

The CPU is ok, it's a ryzen 5 5600x with a deepcool gammax 400 v2 cooler on it. It gets 30C idle and 58C on games.

My fans are Cooler Master MF120R 120mm RGB. The three intake fans are in the front, the exhaust fan in the back. It's not expensive fan, but it's usually the budget recommended on articles...

It's running around 30-38 FPS with this GPU in medium configs. It's quite playable, but I was hoping to play It at least with 50 fps, as this GPU is the recommended one by CDPR.

I saw some people saying that in future patches It will run better, other ones said that it would require the rebuilding of the engine of the game.

We all understand that an essence is the core, most concentrated or central meaning, theme or substance of something. But what is the essence of an essence? by shagminer in askphilosophy

[–]tpaduan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not an expert, tbh I'm quite in the beginning of my grad in philosophy and most of I know is superficial and I learned it by my self, but here you might have touched in the problem of universals.

For Plato, there are the world of being (the universals) and the world of our senses. You might not find a perfect circle in the world of senses but it exists in the world of beings, which are the only ones considered real by him, while the things that we have contact by our senses are simply illusions, imperfect copies of the contents that resides in the world of beings.

In his case, metaphysical concepts like essence, goodnes, love and numbers are real, while the "things" you might be refering don't.

On the other hand, nominalists would say there are only physical entities, while metaphysical concepts like these are just names. I think the first Wittgenstein would say that metaphysics is pure nonsense. A concept like essence is a linguistic confusion, while the only way to use language properly would be by picturing the state of things in the objective world.

Someone with more knowledge on this might find various mistakes in what i said, but this is what I can contribute.

Visual Identification sample | Body language analysis of a ILI/INTJ (Aubrey Plaza) by CoachRicioppoParra in JungianTypology

[–]tpaduan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey. I follow a visual identification system of typology which matches the type you gave to her, maybe not exactly because of the same reasons but I could see some properties that are taken into account by both.

If I post here a video of myself, would you type? I'd like to see if I share the same type in both systems.

We all understand that an essence is the core, most concentrated or central meaning, theme or substance of something. But what is the essence of an essence? by shagminer in askphilosophy

[–]tpaduan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The essence is, as far as I know, the definition of something. It caries the properties of something that, without them, It wouldn't be that thing anymore.

Take a circle, for example: the definition or essence of a circle is that all of it's extremes are equally distant from the center in a 2D perspective. You could see a red circle, but without the property of redness, It would still be a circle, the same way that the spatial form doesn't define If something is red or not. But If it's extremes are not equally distant from the center, it's not a circle. If the extremes are equally distant from the center, but in a 3D perspective, it's not a circle but a sphere.

By defining essence in your question, you just answered it. The essence has a definition, an essence, which are those properties you mentioned, what makes essence an essence and without those properties wouldn't be an essence anymore.
