It would be enough to take the body as a measure for all things to instantly find our bearings again. What direction would the body suggest we consider with critical attention, based on the centre – hence on our hierarchy of actions, institutions and values – and on the limit – hence on the use of our vital force and of the planet’s? It would offer a value system and an evaluation method to choose the appropriate action. An elementary system, because elementary needs are the ones that should be satisfied to be able to pursue greater goals: nourishment, housing, physical and psychic care, safety, upbringing, education.Bodily matters reveal that their formative and cognitive importance is based on their being a potential measure for a new arrangement of our whole civilisation.

Ma, a confronto con il metodo comparativo usato dall’etologia umana, la dimensione archetipica delle immagini deve essere articolata in modo piu preciso che in Jung.

At the beginning of the Liber Secundus of Jung's Red Book 1 , there is a peculiar dialogue between the "I" and "the Red One", supposedly the Devil. An odd devil, indeed, more similar to an ancient, chivalrous horseman. After a dialectic skirmish, which unveils the stiff defences and suspects of the I, bond to a Christian preunderstanding of the devil, the role of the devil becomes apparent: he is the one who creates chances for others to experience joy in life through dance. "The Red One: 'You argue your case well. But your solemnity?! You could make matter much easier for yourself. If you are no saint, I really don't see why you have to be so solemn. You wholly spoil the fun. What the devil is troubling you? Only Christianity with its mournful escape from the world can make people so ponderous and sullen.' I: 'I think there are still other things that bespeak seriousness.' T. R. : 'Oh, I know, you mean life. I know this phrase. I too live and don't let my hair turn white over it. Life doesn't require any seriousness. On the contrary, it's better to dance through life.
