PART 1: Experiences of God in the Individuation Process
This lecture (in two parts) explores the presence of God in the Individuation process, and Jung’s belief that the psyche is, by nature, religious. “Religion,” wrote Jung, “in the sense of conscientious regard for the irrational factors of the psyche and of individual fate.” Diane Croft will share the religious symbolism that emerged, unexpectedly, during her own three-year encounter with a numinous Presence that felt both otherworldly and intimate. She will use examples from the Old and New Testaments as reflections of inner processes of transformation. “Is it not time,” wrote Jung in The Undiscovered Self, “that the Christian mythology, instead of being wiped out, was understood symbolically for once.”
