Owens, MD Directory: Jung and Gnostic Tradition main page Introduction to the Red Book Lectures Jung and the Traditon of There are two sets of lectures presented below (in mp3 audio format), all Gnosis Lectures recorded during the original presentations. The first series of four lectures was presented at Westminster College to the general public in January Other Web Lectures and February of 2010, shortly after the Red Book was published. It provides a useful introduction to Jung and his Red Book ( Liber Novus ). Return to The second series of seven seminar evenings with a total of fourteen Gnosis Archive lectures was presented at Westminster College from September 2011 to May 2012. The seminar group was composed mostly of psychologists in clinical practice. This is a much more in-depth consideration and reading of the Red Book, and reflects an additional two years of my own deepening study of the text. Each of the lectures runs between about 70 and 90 minutes. It is my hope that you will find them useful. You are welcome to email question or comments to Lance Owens MD. Jung and Aion: Time, Vision and a Wayfaring Man , a major article by Dr. Owens discussing themes in Liber Novus and their effect in Jung's later work, is now available online in pdf format .

The Priest, the Psychiatrist and the Problem of Evil
THE PRIEST, THE PSYCHIATRIST AND THE PROBLEM OF EVIL PUNITA MIRANDA PHANÊS • VOLUME 2 • 2019 • PP. 104–143 https://doi.org/10.32724/phanes.2019.Miranda THE PRIEST, THE PSYCHIATRIST, AND THE PROBLEM OF EVIL 105 ABSTRACT This paper clusters around the problem of evil within the framework of depth psychology. The first part briefly introduces the narrative of the Book of Job as an example to contextualise how the ultimate question of God’s relation to evil remained unanswered and was left open-ended in Christian theology. The second part offers a historical reconstruction of the unresolved polemic over the nature of evil between Carl Jung and the English Dominican scholar and theologian Victor White (1902-1960). It explores their different speculations and formulations concerning evil and its psychological implications, until their final fall-out following White’s harshly critical review of Jung’s most controversial work on religion, Answer to Job. The final section of this paper introduces further reflections on a challenging theme that is no less resonant and relevant in today’s world of terrorism in the name of religion than it was in a post-war Europe struggling to recover from totalitarianism and genocide. KEYWORDS Carl Jung, Victor White, Book of Job, Answer to Job, evil. PHANÊS Vol 2 • 2019 PUNITA MIRANDA 106 God has turned me over to the ungodly and thrown me into the clutches of the wicked. All was well with me, but he shattered me; he seized me by the neck and crushed me. He has made me his target; his archers surround me. -

It was Jung, the Times correctly reported, who “brought dr. freud to the recognition of the older school of psychology.” the Times went on to say, “[H]is classrooms are crowded with students eager to under- stand what seems to many to be an almost miraculous treatment. His clinics are crowded with medical cases which have baffled other doctors, and he is here in america to lecture on his subject.” Jung was the man of the hour. aged thirty-seven, he had just com- pleted a five-hundred-page magnum opus, Transformations and Sym‑ bols of the Libido, the second installment of which had just appeared in print. following his first visit to america in 1909, it was he, and not freud, who had been invited back by Smith ely Jelliffe to lec- ture on psychoanalysis in the new international extension course in medicine at fordham university, where he would also be awarded his second honorary degree (others invited included the psychiatrist William alanson White and the neurologist Henry Head). Jung’s initial title for his lectures was “Mental Mechanisms in Health and disease.” By the time he got to composing them, the title had become simply “the theory of Psychoanalysis.” Jung com- menced his introduction to the lectures by indicating that he in- tended to outline his attitude to freud’s guiding principles, noting that a reader would likely react with astonishment that it had taken him ten years to do so. -

Incipit Phanês
Incipit Phanês arl Gustav Jung (1875-1961) was one of the most prominent psychologists in the twentieth century. His work was at once foundational for depth psychology, and pivotal for intellectual, cultural and religious history.C During the course of his career, he attempted to establish an interdisciplinary science of analytical psychology (or, as he preferred to call it, complex psychology), and apply its insights to psychiatry, criminology, psychotherapy, personality psychology, anthropology, physics, biology, education, the arts and literature, the history of the mind and its symbols, comparative religion, alchemy, contemporary culture and politics, among other fields. Many of these have in turn been decisively marked by his thought, though not always acknowledged as such: in 1963, Henry Murray pungently described Jung’s work as ʻa trough at which unconscionable plagiarists are wont to feedʼ (Murray 1963: 469). At the same time, Jung’s work continues to have a wide general readership, and analytical psychology has an established presence in the psychotherapeutic world. However, serious historical study of Jung and his psychology has, until relatively recently, lagged significantly behind that of comparable figures. This is despite the fact that Jung could be considered the most historically minded of twentieth century psychologists, as attested by the vital role of cultural history as a resource for a phylogenetic psychology in Transformations and Symbols of the Libido of 1912, his lectures on the history of psychology at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in 1933-4, his seminars on the history of dream interpretation between 1936 and 1941, through to his late studies of religious and alchemical symbols and collective psychological transformations through time (Jung 1912; 1933-34). -

You have set your glory in the heavens. Children and infants praise you. When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them? You have made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honour. You made them rulers over the works of your hands; you put everything under their feet: all flocks and herds, and the animals of the wild, the birds in the sky, and the fish in the sea. Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!

Jung's Understanding of the Meaning of the Shadow, by Laurens Van Der
Jung’s Understanding of the Meaning of the Shadow pages 205-229 from Jung and the Story of Our Time by Laurens van der Post © 1975 by Laurens van der Post Not the least of Jung’s services to his time was his demonstration of how the dreaming process in man, far from being archaic and redundant, was more relevant than ever. This symbol moving between his dream and daylight self, however, was crucial at this moment. For years Jung had observed a sort of circular movement of awareness, dreams, visions, and new inner material round an as yet unclefined centre like planets and moons around a sun. It was a strange rediscovery of what had once been called the "magic circle." Christian use of this symbolism of the circle was common in the medieval age, usually in paintings of Christ at their centre and the four Apostles arranged at the cardinal points of the compass around him. But no one had ever seen the symbolism implied in the pattern. Some of Jung’s women patients who could not describe it in words or paintings would even dance the magic circle for him. And, as I was able to tell him also, the Stone Age man of Africa to this day does as well. Jung found this circular pattern such a compulsive, one is inclined to say transcendental, constant in himself and others that he started to paint it and to derive such comfort and meaning from it that for years he hardly drew anything else. He called the process and the movement of spirit the mandala, taking the Sanskrit word for "circle," because by this time he had seen drawings by his patients that were almost exact copies of drawings used in religious instruction in Tibet. -
Le Cri De Merlin
Page 269 Chapter XIV Le Cri de Merlin Through all the ages poets and artists have often been prophets, because their work, or the material for it, comes to them from the same depths of the collective unconscious in which the major transformations of a particular era are in process of creation. Thus in the Middle Ages and on up to the seventeenth century, it was not only alchemy whose symbolism anticipated the problems of the new age; there was also a considerable number of poetical works, flowering largely at the same time as knighthood and chivalry, namely the legends and works of poetry which revolved around the vessel of the Holy Grail and the Grail stone.1 The greatest poet to have dealt with this theme was probably Wolfram von Eschenbach, and in his Parzival there is a direct connection with alchemical symbolism. In this epic the Grail vessel is replaced by a stone which has fallen from heaven. Wolfram calls it the lapis exilis, the term used by the alchemists for "their" stone. In other versions the Grail was originally a leaden vessel in which Nicodemus caught the blood of the Crucified as it flowed from his heart. There is also a version in which the Christ is supposed to have appeared to Joseph of Arimathea in prison and to have entrusted him with the vessel containing his blood. This is the reason Joseph was chosen as the first Guardian of the Grail; he was then succeeded by a series of Grail Kings. In antiquity and in the Middle Ages blood was thought of as the seat, or home, of the soul, and the real life principle of any creature. -
Philosophical, Religious and Scientific Influences in Jung’S Psychology by Ann Casement
Philosophical, religious and scientific influences in Jung’s psychology by Ann Casement Jung’s major theoretical contributions were influenced by other thinkers reaching as far back as the pre-Socratic Heraclitus, Jung’s favourite Greek philosopher. For instance, Jung’s theory of opposites, central to his psychology, derived from Heraclitus’s concept of enantiadromia, a psychological law denoting “running contrariwise” which hypothesizes that everything eventually turns into its opposite. Heraclitus also posited that all things are in a state of flux which links to the concept of process. Plato’s theory of Ideal Forms is the forerunner of Jung’s theory of archetypes, inherited patterns in the psychosomatic unconscious or psychological DNA. This is Jung’s way of linking two sets of opposites: psyche and soma, instinct and image. Meister Eckhart (amongst others) is another important influence on this signature concept of Jung’s. From Aristotle, Jung derived the all-important category of teleology—the doctrine of final causes. This was an extension of Plato’s theory of forms which provided the blueprint that guides the object to its final state or telos. The underlying pattern that is there in Aristotle’s teleology is replicated in Jung’s view of the individuation process. Western philosophy, particularly German Idealism and Romanticism, impacted Jung’s thinking in the following ways: Kant’s view of the “moral order within” is echoed everywhere in Jung’s work, while one might say that his “starry heavens above” are more evident in Jung’s ideas than in his own. Kant’s epistemology was another huge influence, in particular what he termed the noumenal or thing-in-itself which can be seen in Jung’s theory of archetypes. -
