Changes to Summary of Primary Elements
[edit]My apologies as I am definitely not an academic expert on this exact subject. The changes I made reflect my general knowledge and understanding of the subject, from 25 years of work on UU-NIS (UU-NIS.org). However they do not depend on independent research, and I restricted myself to a rather minor but important edit making the additions shown because I feel they are self-evidently an improvement. In other words I feel that someone in the field professionally or academically at PhD level, would (or at least should) consider these changes a no-harm and "no-brainer" improvement. Note that there was no prior referenced substantiation except by inference to the mentioned personalities and their work, and I am not going to add any yet. My next step toward the subject will be to write and then quote here from an article (a proof) under UU-NIS.org. Thanks for your tolerance and patience. Xgenei (talk)
OTHER
[edit]I see all the online dictionaries refer to depth psychology as any psychoanalytic approach to the psyche, which may be technically correct, but a review of how the term is commonly used within the depth psychological community leads one to consider that perhaps it is actually the jungian approach that is generally referred to as depth psychology. other psychologies have depth, but its within the post-jungian tradition that the term is used to refer to itself. All to say, I find this page inaccurate, but am hesitant to go radically adjust someone else's entry because I, being a post jungian, may be mis-informed. On the other hand, also having studied within the psychoanalytic tradition, no one there refers to themselves as depth psychologists, so i continue to suspect that "depth psychology" actually refers to jungian and post-jungian schools of thought.

having now poked around, i see that some write well about depth psychology as a tradition drawing from several schools of thought, but still, these writers continue to draw heavily from jungian thought and even the intro paragraph here is jungian in jargon.

edits
[edit]i removed " was strongly influenced by esotericism and draws on myths, archetypes and the idea of the collective unconscious." at the end of this article in an attempt to communicate the same idea with less vague and biased language. Majicshrink (talk) 05:14, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
- speaking of biased language, why are the examples of nonspiritual aspirations att negative? Should i add religious zeolotry and terrorism as (the only) examples of spiritual aspirations?
Also, i fact tagged the b"only sane and whole to the degree that we take care of our environment" A branch of psych is really based on calling a large part of the populaion insane and not all there?!Dillypickle (talk) 11:21, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
- i think this whole article is biased and inaccurate. it appears as if someone read a book by aziz and decided that represented all of depth psychology, without really understanding what they were talking about. sorry if thats harsh. it needs a ton of work to be nearer to accurate and unbiased. imho.

[edit]How come all 4 references in "Related reading" are by the same author?--217.11.187.8 (talk) 14:55, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
- Who knows? Maybe Robert Aziz put them there and nobody thought of removing them. But I'll do that now. Lova Falk talk 14:17, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
