The Real Shadow

Civilizing the Beast is truly integrating the Shadow and not partially, as is often done with Jung's conception of the Shadow which only goes as deep as the human unconscious. We confront the instincts, with all their primitive power, and we integrate or refine them with the Ideal of the Instincts, the evolutionary goal of life which is Godhood. This is a Shadow most people have not confronted.
