That's a pretty horrible picture
The one on the right, I think, and
You know, i think its a creepy picture 
and...
Don't you think? It seems like a creepy picture to me. Yeah
and so
That's quetzalcoatl if i remember correctly. Who is an Aztec dragon god
That's the Eye of Horus by the way, this little thing here
See? The Egyptians, they worship the eye
Yeah, well, that's cool, because, well, why did they worship the eye?
Well... Wake the hell up and look at the world!
That's your salvation, to do that
Pay bloody attention
Especially to the things you don't want to pay attention to
And use your vision, have some vision
And you can use your vision to see into the future
And that is your, that's your redemption
And the Egyptians, they didn't know how to say that
but they knew how to represent it!
And that's how they represented it!
The pupil on that is completely opened,
really dilated.
And that's a god as far as Egyptians were concerned. Its Horus and I'll tell you Horus's story at some point.
Early primates developed a better eye for color, detail and movement
And the ability to see in three dimensions
traits that are important for detecting threats at close range
Humans are descended from there same primates.
Alright, so, now.
The initiation.
When you go into psychotherapy
or when you make any supreme moral effort
which is roughly the same thing
You have to confront that which you do not know
Now, i mention the pre-cosmogonic chaos
and the idea that at the end of Jung's life he sort of thought
of the unconscious and the world as the same
And you think "what the hell does that mean?"
but here is what it means
So let's say you're in a long-term intimate relationship and you get betrayed.
Okay, so
What is it that you see when you see
Your partner at the moment
you know of the betrayal?
Well
You see the pre-cosmogonic chaos
and here's why
Well, it rattles your unconscious up because
you don't know anything anymore
you don't know what the past was, right?
 You don't know what it was
And its supposed to be real and all 
of a sudden you don't know what it was
And so you come up with wild ideas of what it might have been
and what it represented, and then 
you don't know what's the future's gonna be anymore
So then your fantasy fills that space
and you don't know who the hell you're looking at
that's for sure. And you don't know much about human beings
and you certainly don't know anything about yourself
And so all of a sudden, not only is everything in chaos inside your mind, but everything is in chaos in your world
and it actually is, and there's no telling the difference between these two things
you know.
And so then
you're just shattered
and then you go talk to a therapist for like two years
and you think "what happened?"
"what was the reality?" and the reality is:
cause who knows what the reality was, like,
but as far as you're concerned the reality is "I'd better represent this properly"
in my head I'd better figure out
who I was, who that person was, what we did together, and what it meant.
Because I do not want this to happen again.
And so you're healed when you get to the point where you've grasped the bloody moral of the story
What. Went. Wrong.
And how can I not have that happen again.
Because that's the purpose of learning, right?
That's the purpose of memory,
its prepare you for the future
And so you have to
pull out of that massive chaos 
a functional representation.
That increases your wisdom. So that you're not this naive target the next time you enter into relationship
So at least you can have another relationship without being so traumatized
that, you know, you, you're done
and you know, it can take people years to talk that through, because
this landscape of potential opens up when they're betrayed
its like "well.. anything could've been the truth"
to sort through that
you have to wander through all that mess
and its really painful and emotional as well.
you have to sort through all that mess to come out with
the new you, right? The renewed you
and so
Well this is a representation of it, this is how people act this out
by whatever method he may have been designated, a shaman is recognized as such only after having received two methods of instruction.
The first is ecstatic: dreams, trances, visions. The second is traditional: shamanic techniques, names and functions of the spirits, mythology and genealogy of the clan, and a secret language.
Well one of the things that happens, this happens to you even if
if you encountered something terrible like a betrayal.
What happens is that you have to take a journey
into the domain of morality, essentially, which is:
How did I act? And how did that person act? And how should've they acted? And how should've I acted?
And so that part of your cultural structure.
And so that's the idea of rescuing the dead father from the depths, right?
And that's, I will show you some examples of that.
