5.0 out of 5 stars
Very important! Feed your shadow!,
By
This review is from: Depth Psychology and a New Ethic (Paperback)
The most important concept to come out of this book is the idea of feeding the shadow. This means we must give the devil his due from time to time. Did you know that the talisman is a minor form of evil intended to protect us from a worse evil? You will know all about this if you read Erich Neumann. There is no sense in trying to be good all of the time - it will just blow up in your face eventually. This is why we must learn to channel or canlize the libido in the proper manner - so that it does no real harm to ourselves or anyone else. Neumann is brilliant when it comes to teaching men how to feed their shadow - and divest ourselves of fear of the feminine - to prevent an unintended eruption of the shadow side of the unconscious. After all, the evil we can control is much less evil than the evil that is out of control. This is a great book for any man who wishes to take back control of sin and canlize the libido into a productive endeavor.

5.0 out of 5 stars
a real pity this is out of print...,
By Craig Chalquist, PhD, author of TERRAPSYCHOLO... (Bay Area, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Depth Psychology and a New Ethic (Hardcover)
....no modern discussion of morality or ethics would be relevant without the insights of such a book. How can we strive to be ethical individuals without such a thorough understanding of what our shadow side means to our efforts?
