Jung the Mystic: The Esoteric Dimensions of Carl Jung's Life & Teachings

Gary Lachman

4.9/5 (11715 ratings)

Description:This bold, compact new biography of C.G. Jung fills a gap in our understanding of the pioneering psychiatrist by focusing on the occult & mystical dimension of his life & work, a critical but frequently misunderstood facet of his career. Altho he's often called the "founding father of the New Age," Jung, the Swiss psychiatrist best known for groundbreaking concepts like the collective unconscious, archetypes & synchronicity, took pains to avoid any explicit association with mysticism or the occult. Yet he lived a life rich in paranormal experiences--arguing for the existence of poltergeists in a debate with Freud, participating in seances, incorporating astrology into therapy, reporting a near death experience & collaborating with pioneering ESP researcher J.B. Rhine. It's these critical experiences--fleetingly touched on in other biographies or critical studies & just as frequently used to make a case against him & his beliefs--that form the core of this biography. While his ghostwritten memoirs, Memories, Dreams, Reflections, touch on the role mystical & occult experiences played in his life, Jung the Mystic completes the circle: Lachman assesses his life from the viewpoint of Western esoteric tradition & places him in the context of other major esoteric thinkers such as Rudolf Steiner, G.I. Gurdjieff & Emanuel Swedenborg. In that respect, this biography appeals directly to the sensibility of spiritual readers who see him as a pioneer of contemporary metaphysics.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
