– a community of Jungian thought and a forum for discovery where people come alive together through active membership and support for individual growth –
How strange my journey was! What words shall I use to tell you on what twisted paths a good star has guided me to you? Give me your hand, my almost forgotten soul. How warm the joy at seeing you again, you long disavowed soul. Life has led me back to you. Let us thank the life I have lived for all the happy and all the sad hours, for every joy, for every sadness. My soul, my journey should continue with you.
C. G. Jung, The Red Book (1915/2009), p. 232.
[T]he paradox is one of our most valuable spiritual possessions, while uniformity of meaning is a sign of weakness. Hence a religion becomes inwardly impoverished when it loses or waters down its paradoxes; but their multiplication enriches because only the paradox comes anywhere near to comprehending the fullness of life. Non-ambiguity and non contradiction are one-sided and thus unsuited to express the incomprehensible.
C. G. Jung, Psychology and Alchemy (1944), CW 12, § 18.
A Panel on Jung's Contributions to Current Events and Challenges
Friday, September 22nd, 2023 from 6 to 9 pm Curtis Memorial Library, Brunswick, Maine Open to Members and their Guests | $30 Jung once said in a BBC interview “The world hangs by a thin thread, and that thread is the psyche of man.” Yet commentators on our many contemporary social and political conflicts rarely discuss the underlying psychological factors. In this special, member-exclusive event, four local analysts will present brief reflections on the relevance of Jung’s ideas to our current, troubling situation in the country and the world. We are honored to be joined by local analysts Dick Sweeney, Teresa Arendell, Rick Bouchard, and Don Kalsched as they employ the timeless wisdom of Jungian thought to answer and dissect questions as they emerge from the collective unconscious. The evening will begin with a “social hour” with coffee and refreshments being served, and will then transition into the panel discussion, with plenty of time allocated for a rich discussion as well as audience questions.
