Create an image to represent the tendency of speaking mindlessly involves capturing the essence of thoughtless or unfiltered speech. Here's a description of an image that could convey this concept: Imagine a silhouette profile of a person's head, filled with a chaotic swirl of colorful speech bubbles of varying sizes and shapes. These speech bubbles represent thoughts and words pouring out of the person's mind without control or consideration. The colors could be vibrant and diverse to symbolize the range of topics and ideas being spoken mindlessly. The person's mouth could be wide open, spewing out these speech bubbles uncontrollably. In this image, the disorganized and colorful speech bubbles juxtaposed against the silhouette of the person's head would symbolize the tendency to speak without careful thought or mindfulness, reflecting the concept of speaking mindlessly. -

“We do not choose to exist. We do not choose the environment we will grow up in. We do not choose to be born Hindu, Christian or Muslim, into a war-zone or peaceful middle-class suburb, into starvation or luxury. We do not choose our parents, nor whether they’ll be happy or miserable, knowledgeable or ignorant, healthy or sickly, attentive or neglectful. The knowledge we possess, the beliefs we hold, the tastes we develop, the traditions we adopt, the opportunities we enjoy, the work we do – the very lives we lead – depend entirely on our biological inheritance and the environment to which we are exposed. This is the lottery of birth.” — Raoul Martinez

Only you know, the most close example I can tell is for example when you know deep down that what you will say for someone, a lover for example: you know that something you will say will hurt her or him but you decide to say mindlesly anyway. And after you get the result, many times not very good for you and the relationship. You can regret or whatever or rationalise everything happens for a reson, but deep down you know you could spell better or just remained silent. So is in this sense I am speaking. To speak in a cosncious way. Of course this will depend in how good you are using the language.

We can see this principle working everywhere, in Palestine now for example, Jews acting exactly like Nazis Enantiodromia (Ancient Greek: ἐναντίος, romanized: enantios – "opposite" and δρόμος, dromos – "running course") is a principle introduced in the West by psychiatrist Carl Jung. In Psychological Types, Jung defines enantiodromia as "the emergence of the unconscious opposite in the course of time."[1] It is similar to the principle of equilibrium in the natural world, in that any extreme is opposed by the system in order to restore balance. When things get to their extreme, they turn into their opposite. Jung adds that "this characteristic phenomenon practically always occurs when an extreme, one-sided tendency dominates conscious life; in time an equally powerful counterposition is built up which first inhibits the conscious performance and subsequently breaks through the conscious control."[1] However, in Jungian terms, a thing psychically transmogrifies into its shadow opposite, in the repression of psychic forces that are thereby cathected into something powerful and threatening. This principle was explicitly understood and discussed in the principles of traditional Chinese religion, as in Taoism and yin-yang. A central premise of the I Ching is that yang lines become yin when they have reached their extreme, and vice versa.[2] Overview[edit] Jung was heavily influenced by Friedrich Nietzsche, and Nietzsche discusses this idea in several areas of his works: Human, All Too Human Aphorism 1, 2 and 3; Beyond Good and Evil Aphorism 2. The word "enantiodromia" was apparently coined by Stobaeus[3] but the concept is implied also in Heraclitus's writings. In DK fragment 126 for example, Heraclitus says "cold things warm, warm things cool, wet things dry and parched things get wet."[4] It also seems implicit in other of his sayings, like "war is father of all, king of all" (fr. 53), "they do not know that the differing/opposed thing agrees with itself; harmony is reflexive (παλίντροπος palintropos, used of a compound bow, or "in reflexive tension"), like the bow and the lyre" (fr. 51). In these passages and others the idea of the coincidence of opposites is clearly articulated in Heraclitus' characteristic riddling style, as well as the dynamic motion back and forth between the two, generated especially by opposition and conflict. Jung himself wrote: "Old Heraclitus, who was indeed a very great sage, discovered the most marvellous of all psychological laws: the regulative function of opposites. He called it enantiodromia, a running contrariwise, by which he meant that sooner or later everything runs into its opposite."[5] Roughly a generation later, Plato in the Phaedo articulated the principle clearly: "Everything arises in this way, opposites from their opposites." (sect. 71a).[6] Since Jung's modern recognition of it many centuries later, it has been actively portrayed in modern culture. For example, it has been applied to the subject of the film The Lives of Others, to show how one devoted to a communist regime breaks through his loyalty and emerges a humanist. In particular, Jung used the term to refer to the unconscious acting against the wishes of the conscious mind, updating the Greek concept of akrasia in modern psychological terms. (Aspects of the Masculine, chapter 7, paragraph 294). Enantiodromia. Literally, "running counter to," referring to the emergence of the unconscious opposite in the course of time. This characteristic phenomenon practically always occurs when an extreme, one-sided tendency dominates conscious life; in time an equally powerful counterposition is built up, which first inhibits the conscious performance and subsequently breaks through the conscious control. ("Definitions," ibid., par. 709) Enantiodromia is typically experienced in conjunction with symptoms associated with acute neurosis, and often foreshadows a rebirth of the personality. The grand plan on which the unconscious life of the psyche is constructed is so inaccessible to our understanding that we can never know what evil may not be necessary in order to produce good by enantiodromia, and what good may very possibly lead to evil. ("The Phenomenology of the Spirit in Fairytales", Collected Works 9i, par. 397) Enantiodromia also refers to the process whereby one seeks out and embraces an opposing quality from within, internalizing it in a way that results in individual wholeness. This process is the crux of Jung's notion called the "path of individuation." One must incorporate an opposing archetype into their psyche to obtain a state of internal 'completion.'

I am into Study of Rudolf Steiner Teachings of Antrophosophy , and since he is one that includes Christianity into his Science I think you would get alot of wisdom from it. Never forget to keep the sense of Actuality when you study this Occult stuff since things can get really weird , https://anthroposophy.eu/Christ_-_study_modules_15_to_21 The videos of Formscape are also very interesting for who is in this journey of integration of their Chrsitian worldview When Are We?

There is no escape of this. I myself ready was in this circulatory purgatory so many time that I laugth of myself whenever I try to wrap my mind around it again and again. Is like a ballon who have an eye from inside and it wants to see its exterior side but if he somehow is able to turn to the outside the eye comes with the turning and then it dont see the inside anymore and the outside becomes the new normal and then it start asking itself: - hey how I look like from inside?, so it turns again and wherever it looks for itself is still there. -

They are having a Numinous Experience Rudolf Otto's Concept of the "Numinous" Otto was one of the most influential thinkers about religion in the first half of the twentieth century. He is best known for his analysis of the experience that, in his view, underlies all religion. He calls this experience "numinous," and says it has three components. These are often designated with a Latin phrase: mysterium tremendum et fascinans. As mysterium, the numinous is "wholly other"-- entirely different from anything we experience in ordinary life. It evokes a reaction of silence. But the numinous is also a mysterium tremendum. It provokes terror because it presents itself as overwhelming power. Finally, the numinous presents itself as fascinans, as merciful and gracious. Outline of Otto's concept of the numinous (based on The Idea of the Holy. Trans. John W. Harvey. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1923; 2nd ed., 1950 [Das Heilige, 1917]): "Mysterium tremendum et fascinans" (fearful and fascinating mystery): "Mysterium": Wholly Other, experienced with blank wonder, stupor "tremendum": awefulness, terror, demonic dread, awe, absolute unapproachability, "wrath" of God overpoweringness, majesty, might, sense of one's own nothingness in contrast to its power creature-feeling, sense of objective presence, dependence energy, urgency, will, vitality "fascinans": potent charm, attractiveness in spite of fear, terror, etc. -
