    33: Three Segments. 1) Individuation, 2) Human Sacrifice, 3) the Evolution of Monotheism
    Mar 3 2026

    We have some variety this week. I start off with a personal monologue on Individuation, talking about what it means to grow and think for oneself.

    Then rather abruptly, the host asks Depth Mystic Zach Tollen what he thinks of the presence and history of Human Sacrifice the world over, and what are the relevant problems with it today. (Surprisingly, there are relevant problems with it today!)

    Then we continue our series on Jung, the Book of Job, and the Evolution of Monotheism in the final segment.

  • Jung, Monotheism, and the Book of Job, Part 2

    Jung, Monotheism, and the Book of Job, Part 2
    Feb 24 2026

    Our discussion of the Book of Job, and Carl Jung's Answer to Job, continues, this week in pure monologue form. Depth Mystic Zach Tollen discusses what happens if monotheism is reinterpreted from a psychological perspective. A very personal discussion, almost like a mystic's diary entry.

  • 31: Jung and the Book of Job, Part 1

    31: Jung and the Book of Job, Part 1
    Feb 18 2026

    We begin an exploration of the Book of Job, mostly from Carl Jung's perspective. But it becomes clear that we can't cover everything in one week. Jung's Answer to Job is one of his most difficult and important books. And it is the perfect ongoing project for the DMCP, trying to penetrate the thoughts of perhaps the deepest thinker of all time, C.G. Jung!
