C.G Jung: Face to Face with Christianity

In this lecture, built on the new book C.G Jung: Face to Face with Christianity - Conversations on Dreaming the Myth Onward, it’s author Jungian analyst Jakob Lusensky, examines Jung’s wrestle with Christianity. A wrestle that forms the experiential matrix of Jung’s psychology, offers a key to a richer understanding of his ideas and concepts and stimulate questions of Christianity’s role in today’s world. This lecture will cover:

• An introduction to Jung’s personal experience of religion in childhood and adolescence and how it formed his attitude to the Christian tradition.

• Jung’s turn from east to west and his own spiritual tradition in midlife. 

• The repressive elements of ecclesiastical Christianity on the human psyche

• The concept of Imitatio Christi and how it relates to individuation

• Dreaming the myth onward, Jung’s late dream of a reformed Christianity for healing the relationship between the individual and the collective

The lecture will be followed by a Q&A and discussion. The book can be ordered on Chiron Publications website and Amazon.
