I agree. Jung was a deeply religious man who simply had a brilliangt percepion of the human condition and the energy of the world.

THe great poet and pandit, Rabindrinath Tagore, walked in pilgrimage all the way from India to Germany to meet Jung. Tagore regarded Jung as a holy man. People should ask themselves why that is, instead of trying to protect their false virtue with garlic, holy water, and silver bullets.I think Jung is just over their heads.

One other thing so their is a lttle context. When Jung died at his home in Germany, a lightning bolt struck the apple tree in his garden, splitting it in two. Jung was a deeply reigious man.

Jung had his faults.

He was a womanizer and had many extra marital affairs. He even considered Toni Wolfe his second wife while still married to Emma.

He was openly polygamous.

I’ve studied this man in depth. Even have two sets of his collected works and have lectured on him many times at conferences and Jungian groups.

Like I said previously, there are many points where I disagree with Jung. But he was the original groundbreaker.

Carl Jung died at his home in 1961, in Kusnacht, Switzerland.

He had a second home that he built himself at Bolligen as he enjoyed stone masonary work in his leisure. He spent several months each year at the second home. This home, still owned by his family, is like a castle with towers.
