Exploring the Collective Unconscious in the Age of Digital Media
For decades we have witnessed the emergence of a media age of illusion that is based on the principles of physics—the multidimensionality, immateriality, and non-locality of the unified field of energy and information—as a virtual reality. As a result, a new paradigm shift has reframed the cognitive unconscious of individuals and collectives and generated a worldview in which mediated illusion prevails. Exploring the Collective Unconscious in a Digital Age investigates the cognitive significance of an altered mediated reality that appears to have all the dimensions of a dreamscape. This book presents the idea that if the digital media-sphere proves to be structurally and functionally analogous to a dreamscape, the Collective Unconscious researched by Carl Jung and the Cognitive Unconscious researched by George Lakoff are susceptible to research according to the parameters of hard science. This pivotal research-based publication is ideally designed for use by psychologists, theorists, researchers, and graduate-level students studying human cognition and the influence of the digital media revolution.
Spiritual Consciousness as Evolutionary Learning
Navigating a diversity of religious myths and worldviews in both conventional and nuanced secular ways, this edited volume explores transdisciplinary common knowledge and global citizenship ideology through the lens of spirituality, depth hermeneutics, and multimodality. Guided by a broadly semiotic approach, this book examines ancient spiritual myths, metaphors, and magic/wisdom, raising crucial questions of identity, current conflicts, military power, and crises which threaten mental health for many. Chapters take an anthropological and chronological approach through targeted case studies, in part using Systemic Functional Semiotic (SFS) frameworks and linguistic anthropology to tackle issues of contemporary importance such as human rights, conflict resolution, environmentalism, and sustainable development. Featuring a truly international, multidisciplinary team of contributors applying the lenses of mysticism, neuroscience, quantum theory, psychology, and phenomenology to the themes discussed, this book uncovers deep ultimate connections between different religious and philosophical traditions, highlighting shared metaphors, narratives, and allegories that transcend disciplinary, cultural, and geographical boundaries. Driven by a collaborative attempt at achieving spiritual understanding, this book will be of interest to postgraduate students, researchers, and scholars working in global citizenship education, philosophy of education, cognitive linguistics, and semiotics more broadly. It will also be useful for scholars of spirituality, philosophy of language, and ancient religions.
Archetypical Roles in Startups
Founding a startup is a challenging endeavor that works best in a well-balanced team. Different thinking styles are needed throughout the founding journey. Archetypes are deeply engrained templates in the collective unconscious and can be used to reveal the hidden aspects of social interactions within teams. This book employs an archetypical personality test to uncover the eight most significant team roles needed in a startup: the leader, the mentor, the artist, the friend, the hero, the femme fatale, the rebel and the manager. The artist, for example, always finds unconventional solutions, the femme fatale attracts support for the idea, and the hero is undaunted in the face of setbacks. Archetypical roles can manifest in individuals or at the group level, and they can and should change throughout the journey. With the included personality test, this book offers entrepreneurs, investors and mentors alike a tool to improve the interpersonal processes in startup teams.
