Jung's Psychology as a Spiritual Practice and Way of Life considers
the pioneering depth-psychologist Carl Gustav Jung, primarily as a
sage of world-class stature. The authors focus on Jung as an
archetypal wisdom teacher, in three important respects: (1) in the
post-modern West, primarily in interaction with Friedrich Nietzsche
and his Thus Spake Zarathustra and also with theologian Paul
Tillich and Zen master Karlfried Graf Durckheim; (2) in his deep
spiritual kinship with the timeless universality of Lao-tze and his
classic The Tao Te Ching; and (3) in consideration of the future
prospects of Jung's psychology in mind/body medicine, especially
neuroscience, and in dialogue with quantum speculation. This book
contends that Jung's psychology is not primarily a form of
psychotherapy in the conventional sense but essentially a dynamic
"religious philosophical system" constituting a spiritual practice
and way of life. The dialogue format suggests not only Jung's own
dialogue or "confrontation" with the Unconscious but also his
generally unacknowledged spiritual affinity with the central
Western philosophical tradition, a tradition stemming from Socrates
and Plato and their devotion to the task of "living the questions."
