Carl Jung: I would abandon the term “Gnostic” without compunction were it not a swearword in the mouths of theologians

Here is a letter by Carl Jung from 1954 that he had written to a friend. In it he states why he uses the term Gnostic which is in opposition to the carl_jung_lettertheologians of his day. Jung said these theologians fraudulently offers his (limited) God-concept to the naive listener as a special revelation. This underhand way of doing holy business I fling in the teeth of theologians of all colours.”

To Erich Neumann

Dear Neumann, 30 January 1954

Best thanks for your friendly letter.

I was just writing to Hull, who is to insert a passage on your work in the English edition of Symbole der Wandlung.

The transition to the New Year has not passed without difficulties: liver and intestine revolted against the too oily hotel cooking in Locarno, though this had its good side in that my holiday was 1-1/2 weeks longer than expected.

I have already penetrated a good way into your “Kulturentwicklung” and shall be able to read further as soon as the mountain of letters that have accumulated during my absence is cleared away.

I would abandon the term “Gnostic” without compunction were it not a swearword in the mouths of theologians. (more…)

“Our souls as well as our bodies are composed of individual elements which were all already present in the ranks of our ancestors. The carl jung quote on ancestors“newness” in the individual psyche is an endlessly varied recombination of age-old components.

Body and soul therefore have an intensely historical character and find no proper place in what is new, in things that have just come into being. That is to say, our ancestral components are only partly at home in such things.” – By Carl Jung: Memories, Dreams, Reflections

We are the soul creators of the Gnostic metaphysical universe that will transform the current cult of planetary culture of darkness into one of truth, illumination and love.

Alterations of true consciousness to help awaken the masses of our fellow Brothers and Sisters who are trapped in the material matrix of ignorance and unknowing. (more…)
