God is Other People

I haven't posted anything here in months! I'm about to return with a how-to series of posts on "how to meet your spirit guide and begin the archetypal journey." First installment in a few days. Here's a thought for now: Jean Paul Sartre's theme in No Exit is "hell is other people." Conversely, Jung wrote that when he meets someone who grates on his nerves the encounter teaches him about himself. So, Jung considered difficult people to be God to him because of how he learned through them. Sartre: Hell is other people. Jung: God is other people.
