Miketz - Freud's Interpretation of Dreams and the Godlike Power of Luck - Episode 10


Listen Later

There is a moment during a tennis match where the ball hits the net and hangs in the air for an instant. In this moment, the ball seems to decide for itself whether to go forward or go backward. "Luck" seems to decide -- but what is luck? This phenomenon of the tennis ball occurs in our dreams as well: we can dream about pretty much anything. We have no control over our dreams; they proceed irregardless of our intentions. Joseph said that dreams come from God. Freud said that dreams come from the unconscious. Yet, it may be possible, that both Freud and Joseph were saying the same thing without knowing it. Moreover, it may be that, like in Franz Kafka's fiction, the dreaming mind and the conscious mind are one and the same as well.
