About this listen

Jungian analysts Vlado Solc and George J. Didier set out to explore the psychological dynamics and causes of religious fundamentalism and fanaticism. The book offers an in-depth psychological analysis of what happens when a person becomes possessed by the unconscious energies of the self. Dark Religion also reveals that spirituality is an inherent dimension of human life and one of its most essential needs. It only becomes "dark" when it denies, ignores, or separates itself from its vital roots. The authors coin the term "dark religion" to describe all forms of fanatical, radical, and extreme religions. Their study shows how dark religion leads to profound conflicts on both the personal and cultural level—including terrorism and wars. The book surveys the vast contemporary cultural and religious landscapes, all the while discovering the emergent forms of spiritual praxis in light of postmodernism and the rise of fundamentalism in the new millennium.

Perspectives on the underlying themes of fundamentalism.

"Dark Religion" is a great book that provides different perspectives on the underlying themes of fundamentalism. It addresses the polarization of fundamentalism in different religious ideologies, but also provides practical resources for navigating them. Definitely worth the investment for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of fundamentalism. It is also nicely narrated.
