Depth Psychological Prayer: Meditations on Jung and the Bible
November 21, 1992 @ 9:30 am - 4:30 pm PST
The reality of the psyche is perhaps Jung’s most important discovery but it is easy to lose sight of it living in the most extroverted society the world has ever known. With the declining influence in our lives of religion, only depth psychotherapy remains as an institution that can keep us in touch with our souls (psyches). But we need something to supplement depth psychotherapy and remind us on a daily basis of the existence of an inner world which compensates for the overwhelming power of the collective.
