The mysterious understanding of God
and man of C. G. Jung
▶ Key texts by C. G. Jung for spiritual seekers
▶ With an extensive introduction by an experienced Jungian
analyst who is familiar with spiritual traditions
“The he decisive question for a person is: are you related to something infin
infinite
or not? That is the telling question of his life.“ This statement of C. G. Jung’s
demonstrates the critical importance of spirituality in his understanding of
the world and human beings.
For this book, the Jungian analyst and psychotherapist Brigitte Dorst has
selected the most important texts in which Jung addresses spirituality and
transcendence. The spectrum of themes – images of God, the soul, the
search for meaning, psychotherapy and religion, religious symbols, Eastern
wisdom – makes it clear how thoroughly and extensively Jung explored
these questions.
This title is addressed to engaged specialists as well as people who are simply
interested in an ecumenical spirituality and a freeing interpretation of
religion.
