An interesting thought on the astral plain.

Recently I was reading Carl Jung (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mf_bookread.gif) and came upon the idea of the universal Whole; (Or at least this is how I interpreted it) the basic concept is that all human minds are fundamentally the same and that the way they work is so closely linked that there is a way that we unconsciously talk with each other. He used this as a way of explaining god. However the same principle could be put to explaining loused dreaming, astral projection, spirits, and divination. Any one else noticed this? The idea seems to be sacrilegious to sociologists and psychologists as well as the parishioners of magick that I’ve talked to. So any input would be nice.


--------------------
Cosmic consciousness is devoid of diversity; yet the universe of diversity exists in notion....
We contemplate that reality in which everything exists, to which everything belongs,
from which everything has emerged, which is the cause of everything and which is everything....
The light of [this] self-knowledge alone illumines all experiences. It shines by its own light.
This inner light appears to be outside and to illumine external objects.

-Sage Vasishtha

Firstly, why should "The idea seem(s) to be sacrilegious to sociologists and psychologists as well as the parishioners of magick" ?

What you do in lucid dreaming events, astral projection, spirits, and divination is entirely up to you.

But I am unsure of why these practices should have any bearing on the "basic concept is that all human minds are fundamentally the same and that the way they work is so closely linked that there is a way that we unconsciously talk with each other".

Are you trying to attempt to link on the astral with someone as a continuance of the normal use of telepathy?
