Re: Decoding Synchronicity: Jung & Wolfgang Pauli
[Yes, the point about the disconnect is based on BK interpreting Jung's metaphysics in terms of idealism, and not some version of dual-aspect monism that views psyche and matter as being reducible to the anima mundi ~ a case I expect he'll make in his upcoming book. Clever as the young man is, I do...

Re: The Attention Economy
Oddly enough, a great example of that very issue has appeared on the BBC website today - an argumentative parish council meeting went viral (people demanding attention and wanting power):

Re: Nominalism versus Realism
Do it, Gary. If you're showing how semiotics relates to Idealism, it's relevant.

Re: Figs do not grow on thistles
Jesse, I'd say that no-one could doubt the intuitional intelligence of Mind at Large. But one could doubt it's ability to be aware of its own intelligence - doubt its metacognitive or self-reflective abilities. Analytic Idealism doubts that MAL has metacognition, partly because of the immense suffer...

Re: Seeing things: The daimonic nature of reality

I like BK's idea of freewill - that we are free to be ourselves unless overridden by external forces (other wills). Obviously we will act according to our nature, or it would not be our nature.
