“The self-confidence of the warrior is not the self-confidence of the average man. The average man seeks certainty in the eyes of the onlooker and calls that self-confidence. The warrior seeks impeccability in his own eyes and calls that humbleness.”
― Carlos Castaneda
The world is increasingly at war—literally and metaphorically. To cope, many seek personal methods of gaining peace—through meditation, yoga, time in nature, exercise, even therapy. But these methods are often utilized to escape difficult emotions like fear and anger. Even developing emotional intelligence can be motivated by a desire to think about emotions rather than feel them. Because the world is engulfed by fear and anger, conscientious people are doing everything possible to eliminate them, which is not helping because it just enacts another kind of war. We are caught between the guru and the soldier and paradoxically enough, both must often kill their emotions to complete their mission, which can leave behind a trail of massacred lives in one form or another.
We are suffering from the cultural and psychological absence of the Warrior. Indigenous cultures have always recognized the importance of the Warrior for the human community because the Warrior is experientially trained to honor fear and anger. Without the Warrior we lose what fear and anger can teach us. When we oppose these emotions, we put ourselves in conflict with the psyche itself and no one at war with themselves can live peacefully with others or the earth.
DYLAN FRANCISCO, PhD, is co-chair and a core faculty member of the Jungian and Archetypal Studies MA/PhD program at Pacifica Graduate Institute in Santa Barbara, California. Dylan grounds his teaching in the depth psychology of C. G. Jung, decolonialism, and Mestizo/Mexican/Indigenous traditions that provide a primordial, holistic, and sacred worldview within which to understand the psyche, to embody its wholeness individually, and to live it relationally through honoring Spirit, the ancestors, and the land.
