Killing Uriah | When the Ego Murders the Ideal Self

In this episode of Traversing the Strange World, we explore the story of David and Uriah through an archetypal and psychological lens. What if David represents the ego, Uriah the ideal self, and Bathsheba the object of desire? What if this ancient biblical story is also a story about the divided soul — about what happens when desire takes the throne, conscience is silenced, and the better man within is betrayed? This episode reflects on self-betrayal, the death of the ideal self, repression, conscience, Carl Jung, and the inner hell that lies create when we refuse to face what we have become. At its core, this is a meditation on brokenness, desire, moral fracture, and the beginning of reckoning. Before a man can return, he must first face the better man he betrayed.Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/14dCejvEoAi/?mibextid=wwXIfr
