CHAPTER

Exploring Primal Instincts in Modern Society

This chapter delves into the concept of repressed primal instincts in modern society, discussing the lack of outlets for individuals to express their inner primal nature. Drawing parallels with historical practices such as hand-to-hand combat, the conversation explores the idea of a societal need for a release of these primal urges to prevent dysfunction and unrest in various aspects of life. It touches on the primal nature of survival, interactions with animals, and vivid dream experiences involving wolves and other animals.
