“There is a case for saying that the creation of new aesthetic forms has been the most fundamentally productive of all forms of human activity. Whoever creates new artistic conventions has found methods of interchange between people about matters which were incommunicable before.

“The 'coming of the Self' is immanent; and the process of collective 'individuation' is living itself out in human history. One way or another, the world is going to be made a single whole entity. But it will be unified either in mutual mass destruction or by means of mutual human consciousness. If a sufficient number of individuals can have the experience of the coming of the Self as an individual, inner experience, we may just possibly be spared the worst features of its external manifestation.” IfsWorldWayHumansMayMeanMadeSelfWholeIndividualProcessNumbersConsciousnessWorstMassDestructionIndependenceOne WayFeaturesManifestationSufficientCollectivesMutualEntityHuman HistoryMass DestructionUnifiedHuman ConsciousnessIndividuation Author:Edward F Edinger
