Carl Jung: Why You Must Become A "Monster"

"No tree, it is said, can grow to heaven unless its roots reach down to hell." In this video, we explore one of Carl Jung’s most controversial and powerful ideas: that true virtue is not about being harmless, but about being dangerous and keeping it under control. We dissect the psychology of the "Shadow" and explain why repressed weakness is not morality. Discover why you must integrate your capacity for evil to become a truly whole and formidable human being. Welcome to Beyond Consolation. We are an archive of the human condition, dedicated to exploring the uncomfortable truths that society often ignores. This channel is not for the superficial; it is a sanctuary for the outsiders, the thinkers, and the seekers of forbidden wisdom. From the cosmic indifference of the universe to the deepest recesses of the human psyche, we decode the philosophies of Nietzsche, Jung, Camus, and the Stoics. Our goal is to blend existential surrealism with dark philosophy to help you find clarity in a chaotic world. Join the Discussion: We are building a community of rare minds who are not afraid to question reality. We want to hear your perspective: Do you agree that a person must be capable of being a "monster" to be truly good, or is harmlessness a virtue?
