Seminar 2: Spring 2020
12 Mondays: 6:30-8:00 pm
February 10 – May 11
(excluding February 17 and April 6)
According to Jung, a fundamental aspect of being human is to be religious by nature. Homo religiosus. From his deep well of Judeo-Christian scholarship and his personal understanding of what he saw as an innate religious attitude that is a significant aspect of the human psyche, Jung was a master of finding the common ground in his ability to “translate” such texts as The Tibetan Book of the Dead, The Taoist Secret of the Golden Flower, and D.T. Suzuki’s teachings on Zen Buddhism into a psychologically oriented language, while also expanding his Western readers’ knowledge-base of their own traditions.
This course will draw material mainly from Jung’s essays in Collected Works Volume 11, Psychology and Religion: West and East. It is intended to inform participants about the religious background of some of the general principles of Analytical Psychology and its contribution to the East-West psycho-spiritual dialogue, and will serve mental health professionals interested in the spiritual aspects of Jung’s approach to psychotherapy.
Instructor: Royce Froehlich, PhD, MDiv, LCSW
