Jungian perspective on duality of Silverladder and Korporation

Struggling with no sleep and thoughts are churning. Began leading Jungian lecturer and analyst Robert A. Johnson's "Owning your own shadow: understanding the dark side of the psyche." Beyond apparent surface themes like consumerism and manipulation is there a message of transcendece of black and white of Silverladder vs. Korporation. What can Silverladder devotees gain and learn from integrating the shadow self we personify as The Korporation (purportedly our inverse mirror image [AIW] or Doppelganger. Ego=what we are and know consciously. Shadow=submerged unconscious or repressed portion.

Society is war between Superego/KIA/Gaian Mind/Supraself Metaprogrammer and Ego/Zos/individuation/human biocomputer. (Terms- Freud, Spare, GM=Rushkoff, SSM/HBC= Lilly). What benefits one does not always benefit the other, however. Conflict ensues. Individual groups throughout history have used scapegoat religions, races or groups to lump their collective baggage and repressed psyche on. As we move away from holistic, natural living and greater acculturation and civilization weeds out behaviors, thought patterns, etc. that do not serve the hive mind. Korporation and Silverladder may be complementer, e.g. Yin and Yang. The best and worst of all of us is gathered in both opposing groups/movements.

Different cultures value different traits. Culture is just one of the filters through which we perceive the overwhelming mass of data which is filtered through ego, religious, family, cultural and other programming to result in the individual's given reality. How can we judge Korporation for choosing different values and traits to attribute to ego and which to shadow.

Example - KORP = conformity [GM/KIA/SSM]
Silverladder = free thought [I/Zos/HBC]

Many of us value free thought highly over conformity, but can anyone imagine a world where individual will and whim holds total sway over the greater good of the whole. To further clarify/confuse matters, consider the impact of Humanity on Earth. A truly benevolent person who is wholly for the greater good might have no qualms eliminating homo sapiens from the global equation. A drastic plan, but on the whole, possibly vital to the survival of life on "Earth if humanity continues its current course ignoring the exponential increase in novelty and technology without a resulting increase in coping skills to the external world which changes at beryond T-3 speeds in the 21st century. These are just two possible examples of how loss of equilibrium between Yin/Yang elements could prove disastrous.

Johnson comments on an illuminated manuscript by Berthold Furtmeyer, Tree of Life and death. The tree gives both eternal life and eternal damnation meted out by the dichotomy of Eve, harbinger of Original Sin and the Virgin Mary, harbinger of Eternal Salvation and Life: "Whenever we pluck the fruit of creativity from the golden tree our other hand plucks ther fruit of destruction. OUr resistance to this insight is very high! We would love to have creativity without destruction, but this is not possible." Or as Augustine put it, "To act is to sin."

The postmodern world assassinated objective fact and reality and contemporary psychology and physics are continuing to take a sledgehammer to our linear clockwork Newtonian-Cartesian 4D model of the universe. Relativity of matter and energy may also extend to morality. We all know good begets evil and evil begets good, but it behooves us to balance shadow and ego within before heaping the repressed, unacceptable parts of our psyche upon the backwards image through the looking glass. Can we stop war by fighting it? It might do more to write an anti-glacier book as Kurt Vonnegut suggested.

Do not hate the shadow elements Korp represents to you, rather, balance and integrate the darkness you heap upon it within yourself. Johnson equates dealaing with shadow attack not by fighting the shadow, exacerbating the situation, but by dodging the shadow like a bullfighter. Head of Rajneeshi ashram, Osho, said in interview that Ghandi was the most talented politician ever and Hitler the stupidest. One used violence to assert dominance killing masses of innocents. The other brought down in his country, through passive resistance, an imperialism that had once been present throughout the world.

If we are to beat the Korps programming we must not fall into using their negative methods. Otherwise in the event we were to someway overtake them thusly, we would find that in doing so we had become what we fought. Honoring two extremes is a nonlinear, dualistic way of approaching our problems. If the tools you're utilizing don't seem to be effective, just try another tack. If we're going to beat those brain sucking parasites though, we'll have to open some minds a little further perhaps than usually accustomed but the rewards will be ample.
