Why are there so many religions? Of all the religions of the world which is right? Is there a way to make sense of religion. Where can we go to have religion explained? Are religion and spirituality the same thing?
In this video I take you on a journey through Perennialism and the Philosophy of thinkers like Adolf Bastian, Carl Jung, Joseph Campbell and Jordan Peterson to look at the Archetypes of the Collective Unconscious and how they serve as the scaffolding of our psychic experience. Visions, Dreams and Altered States of Consciousness ultimately serve as the primary root, the source from which religious ideas spring. By understanding dreams, the unconscious mind and the forces which reside there we can appreciate every faith but we can also understand why it's important to choose just one spiritual path and to avoid syncretism.
