Jung and Eastern Thought: A Dialogue with the Orient



Jung was fascinated by the East. Trough his commentaries on such texts as the I Ching, and The Tibetan Book of the Dead, and through his essays on such topics as Zen, meditation, and the symbolism of the mandala, Jung attempted to build a bridge of understanding between Western psychology and the ancient ideas and practices of Eastern religions and philosophies. By so doing he hoped to relate traditional Eastern thought to modern Western concerns. Through a broad critical examination of these aspects of Jung's works, Jihn Clarke's latest book uncovers this dialogue with the East. Jung and Eastern Thought will appeal to all those who wish to broaden their understanding of Jung's thought as well as to those who value Eastern ways of thinking and who believe that by engaging with it Westerners have much to gain both intellectually and spiritually.
