If you’re using ChatGPT try this prompt on the 4o model.

Prompt:

Carl Jung has a quote which states

“Nothing has a stronger influence psychologically on their environment and especially on their children than the unlived life of the parent.”

I would like to explore the implications of this quote on my own life and family dynamic.

And then follow the thread where it leads you. Be prepared. It gets deep fast.

Nah, don't give that kind of info to an AI company.

The KYC dossiers those AI companies are going to have on people in a few years will be wild.

Like scientology levels of dirt and info

Right. Consider use of end to end encrypted AI https://trymaple.ai/

Breedlove talks about shadow work. Very interesting…makes sense intuitively.

The are better sources on shadow work than Breedlove. Hope you found some of them.

I’m just learning about it. Any suggestions?

Short answer is secular Buddhism and developing a sitting practice.

Better answer is Tara Brach, I think Radical Acceptance is the book that dives into her coined RAIN technique. It’s decent if you prefer books.

She has a podcast too that I think is quite approachable.

If you prefer non-spiritual then Kristen Neff is a good start

Awesome thanks, I’ll check out your suggestions.

Damn

I have thought about this downstream, but not upstream. I think we are all aware that our parents at times project and compensate based on how they were raised, but I’ve never thought about it from the “unlived life” POV. This specific framing is powerful.

Especially between fathers and sons.

A Tool playlist at open mat sounds better 🤙

Thank you

Jung was a gnostic, just fyi.

As in Gnosticism

Doesn’t change the fact that this insight rings profoundly true

Indeed. Something to dive into. I’m not a Gnostic but I’ve been looking into it and the influence on Jung is fascinating. It also seems it influences lots of the modern animation films and Disney classics.

My father died in Vietnam when I was two.

It changes things.

Is this the start of the bitcoin/AI renaissance?

Wish I could have hung out backstage after this panel. You guys were great!

😍😍🔥🔥

Thanks for the repost. New Nostrich here. Just getting started. Real name and everything. More coming.

Post a sax solo! I’ll definitely repost

Thanks brother! First sax solo on NOSTR should be up there. Had to dial down resolution so it would fit the file size limit.

And seeing you in Vegas was great. Four years stacking sats by myself in Normie-land and nobody I know is a Bitcoiner other than a couple of orange pills. But still, they're just "and I have some bitcoin too" kind of people. I'm 99.97% BTC and a few hundred dollars. I had to actually get some dollars to go to the conference. But it was amazing to be in a room of ALL bitcoiners. First one I saw was Adam Back. Freaked me out.
