Your condemnatory critique of the author is odd in light of your dismissal of Jung’s demonization and the mainsprings of his ‘psychology’ revelations from Philemon and other spirit guides.

Linda Kimball is my favorite contemporary author currently. Haven’t yet done the deep dive into the posted article but expect it to be insightful.

What she is saying about Philemon is incorrect, and the drawing that Jung did of Philemon does not resemble her description in any way.

Not only did he not have horns like a bull, he had wings like an angel.

The picture Jung did of him is included in the Redbook, by Sonu. I’m very familiar with it as I helped publish it.

I actually examined the original Redbook drawings by Jung and met with Jung’s family and Sonu, the Redbook editor and translator several times.

I would have no problem with her criticizing Jung if her statements were accurate.

Jung was very critical of the Hindu religion, especially warning of the dangers of Kundalini in his 1929 lectures. He really didn’t understand it and it scared him.
