From, "Memories, Dreams, Reflections" by C.G. Jung
"Nevertheless, we have plunged down a cataract of progress which sweeps us on into the future with ever wilder violence the farther it takes us from our roots. Once the past has been breached, it is usually annihilated, and there is no stopping the forward motion. But it is precisely the loss of connection with the past, our uprooted-ness, which has given rise to the "discontents" of civilization and to such a flurry and haste that we live more in the future and its chimerical promises of a golden age than in the present with which our whole evolutionary background has not yet caught up. We rush impetuously into novelty, driven by a mounting sense of insufficiency, dissatisfaction, and restlessness. We no longer live on what we have, but on promises, no longer in the light of the present day, but in the darkness of the future, which, we expect, will at last bring the proper sunrise. We refuse to recognize that everything better is purchased at the price of something worse; that, for example, the hope of greater freedom is canceled out by increased enslavement to the state, not to speak of the terrible perils to which the most brilliant discoveries of science expose us. The less we understand of what our fathers and forefathers sought, the less we understand ourselves, and thus we help with all our might to rob the individual of his roots and his guiding instincts, so that he becomes a particle in the mass, ruled only by what Nietzsche called the spirit of gravity."

Understanding Narcissistic Chaos
Narcissists thrive in chaotic environments, often creating turmoil and confusion in their relationships. This behavior serves several psychological purposes for them.
Reasons for Creating Chaos
Control: Narcissists manufacture chaos to maintain control over others. During chaotic times, emotions run high, making it easier for them to manipulate situations and people.
Emotional Supply: They derive a sense of power and validation from the distress they cause. Watching others struggle boosts their ego and reinforces their sense of superiority.
Avoidance of Accountability: By creating chaos, narcissists deflect attention from their own shortcomings. They can blame others for the turmoil, positioning themselves as victims rather than perpetrators.
