Jung's Red Book has been a great source of wisdom, hope, & inspiration in my times of unease lately. He knits the web of mythology that joins all humanity to our neighbors & the present to our ancestral history. In a time of such deep division & disarray, Jung imparts inarguable proof that we have more in common than at odds.
Highly recommended to anyone who wishes to crack deep, past the granite and into the obsidian bedrock of the mind to taste what lies below.
"Like plants, so men also grow, some in the light, others in the shadows. There are many who need the shadows and not the light."
"Do you believe, present-day man, that laughter is lower than worship? Where is your measure, impudent measurer? The sum of life decides in laughter and worship, not your judgment."
"The one eye of the Godhead is blind, the one ear of the Godhead is deaf, the order of its being is crossed by chaos. So be patient with the crippledness of the world and do not overvalue its consummate beauty."
