"There is only one way and that is your way; there is only one salvation and

that is your salvation......What is to come will be created in you and from you.

Hence look into yourself. Do not compare, do not measure. No other way is

like yours. All other ways deceive and tempt you. You must fulfill the way

that is in you." [The Red Book, p. 130]

Comment by Luna Arjuna on April 13, 2020 at 9:33pm: "Many people cannot refrain from picking up stones of a slightly unusual color or shape and keeping them, without knowing why they do this.

It is as if the stones held a living mystery that fascinates them.

Men have collected stones since the beginning of time and have apparently assumed that certain ones were the containers of the life-force with all its mystery..

In this sense the stone symbolizes what is perhaps the simplest and deepest experience —the experience of something eternal that man can have in those moments when he feels immortal and unalterable."

Carl G. Jung, Man and His Symbols, Page 206.

Comment by Eva Libre on December 29, 2019 at 10:54pm: "Filling the conscious mind with ideal conceptions is a characteristic of Western [thinking], but not the confrontation with the shadow and the world of darkness. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious."

~ Carl G. Jung

"The shadow is simply the dark side of someone's personality. And what is dark is always known only indirectly through projection. That is, one discovers his dark side as something belonging to others: friends, relatives, fictitious characters, etc."

Comment by Luna Arjuna on August 26, 2019 at 4:41pm: "People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid Facing their own soul."

Comment by Eva Libre on July 27, 2019 at 1:02pm: Happy Birthday, C.G. Jung!

AS FAR AS WE CAN DISCERN, THE SOLE PURPOSE OF HUMAN EXISTENCE IS TO KINDLE A LIGHT IN DARKNESS OF MERE BEING.

Comment by Luna Arjuna on May 8, 2019 at 3:07pm: You cannot apply kindness and understanding to others if you have not applied it to yourself.

~ Carl G. Jung, Letters Vol. II, Page 515

Comment by Eva Libre on May 6, 2019 at 4:30pm: Happy birthday, Sıgmund Freud!

Sigismund Schlomo Freud was born May 6th 1856 in Freiberg, Mähren (Tschechien). Here with his chows.

"It is impossible to escape the impression that people commonly use false standards of measurement — that they seek power, success and wealth for themselves and admire them in others, and that they underestimate what is of true value in life."

~ Sigmund Freud, 'Civilization and Its Discontents'.

"I had learned in the meanwhile that the greatest and most important problems of life are all in a certain sense insoluble. They can never be solved, but only outgrown."

~ C. G. Jung, 'The Secret of the Golden Flower'
