Here's a good analogy to offer...
Tubal Cain represents the worst of the human ID. And it multiplies until it becomes a horde of starving lunatics unless it is checked.

Regarding personality tests such as the Meyers Briggs typology. One person asked in video 2 if one can be locked into a particular type.
Not necessarily. Find your own myths (categories) within and become conscious of them. Most people can be diagnosed with a psychopathology. Does real healing come when pushed into a ready made label?
Again, this is why humor is important. Can you laugh at yourself and put a spiritual view to the science? It's integrated into two sides of the same coin.
Spirituality and science can come together using assumptions from each. Find your diamond within...
Psychology is like a jet engine. It needs oxygen to fly and can only go so high.
Spirituality is like a rocket that can fly anywhere in the universe...

Neuropsychology of Symbolic Representation
In this lecture, I discuss the relationship between the basic categories of imagistic/symbolic representation and brain function, noting that the very hemispheres of the brain are adapted, right/left to the environmental or experiential permanence of chaos/order or unexplored/explored territory, with consciousness serving the Logos role of communicative explorer (a function related in one of its deepest manifestations to the function of the hypothalamically grounded dopaminergic systems).

Through listening and contemplation, an Ainu becomes aware of other Ainur, other musics, and the cultivation and adornment of other themes.

Melkor's themes drown all the other voices.
Where's the harmony in that?
Maybe it's time for a new note to sing...
The Road Home
by Rumi º
An ant hurries along a threshing floor with its wheat grain,
moving between huge stacks
of wheat, not knowing the abundance all around. It thinks its
one grain is all there is to
love. So we choose a tiny seed to be devoted to. This body,
one path or one teacher. Look
wider and farther. The essence of every human being can see,
and what that essence-eye takes
in, the being becomes. Saturn. Solomon! The ocean pours
through a jar, and you might say it
swims inside the fish! The mystery gives peace to your
longing and makes the road home home.
