'These writings of his are strongly alive; in most instances Jung does not present us with final solutions and last words about any of the great East-West problems, but rather with suggestions for a deeper kind of approach, thus opening up new planes of investigation.' - Journal of Analytical Psychology
“My own world of European consciousness had become peculiarly thin… it is quite possible that India is the real world and that the white man lives in a madhouse of abstractions.” C.G. Jung was inspired to write these words after his very first visit to India. Long concerned with the hold that myth and archetype had on the human psyche, it was inevitable that the legendary psychoanalyst would turn his attention to Eastern modes of thought. Psychology and the East collects together many of Jung’s most memorable writings on the subject, including his Psychological commentaries on the I Ching and The Tibetan Book of the Dead, his thoughts on Buddhism and Islam and a full travelogue of that fateful first encounter with India in 1936.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. An excellent attempt in conceptualising Eastern mind By Paul Practices of psychological healing have to be practiced in order to be understood, same in the East and West. A Jungian psychologist has first to be analyzed by his/her mentor in the Jungian manner before he/she can be qualified. Therefore Carl Jung did his best in his analysis of I Ching because he actually did seriously "ask" I Ching the traditional Chinese way and analyzed his own psychological response. Furthermore, he added to the understanding of I Ching by introducing his famous concept of synchronicity. Those who are interested in I Ching can certainly benefit from reading Jung's forward to Richard Wilhelm's translation. Interested reader can also refer to Jung's article in memory of Richard Wilhelm in his Memories, Dreams, Reflections.Unfortunately Jung didn't practise Taoist yoga as per "The secret of the Golder Flower" and "Hui Ming Jing", the latter is actually a more complete manual for Taoist practice whereas the former elaborated more on Logos("Xing") side (using Jung's terminology). His commentary therefore is void on the practice (Jung called technical) side. Having said that, Jung did present a new and interesting psychological perspective on this esoteric text (giving it academic respectability that it rightfully deserves).Carl Jung had a good choice of subjects related to Eastern psychology, there are many interesting articles in addition to the above two...(edited on 13 September 2010)
3 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Wonderful analysis of Eastern vs. Western approach to self-realization its validity and difficulties to put into practice. By Nick Vasiljevich Jung gives a unique persceptive with great relevance for today's New Age shift into the many varieties of Eastern religiousity, even though it was postulated over sixty years ago. His characterization of the root and practice of Buddist and Hindu practices and why they are particularly suited to Eastern culture and his analysis of why this is so, is truly eye-opening. To someone who has approached and studied diffrent forms of Eastern practices and tried to incorporate them into the Western way of life, Jung gives a great explanation why success is so difficult and reaching nirvana or samadhi is not suited for Western man. There are too many ideas to ponder and summarize in a short neat way in this fine book. But the themes in this compilation provides much wisdom on how not to approach spiritual discipline of the East and Jung explains some the fallacy as well as the worth in the effort. I was blown away because it was very illuminating as`well as cautionary. And written with a genius that is very educational. Jung shows how the unconscious and ego as well as consciousness work together in these Eastern religions and also how this related to the West's conception of religious transcendent liberation. I have never seen a better explanation anywhere of this type of systematic puzzle solving with questions dealing with the historical as well what an ultimate spiritual experience may represent and how the various components of inner man are defined in relation to each other. Lastly, Jung shows how Western culture could learn from the East and begin to see life from an inner viewpoint instead of losing spiritual focus by putting all its eggs in an outer reality. He says this outer focus is responsible for the discontent even though man's material needs are abundant, he spirals into greater anxiety and insecurity.
0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. a must-read By Julia All modern American yogis and yoginis must read this book. If you can get past the old-school racism and sexism, Jung's psychoanalytic explications of meditation, yoga, and Indian culture offers an entirely new (admittedly Western) perspective on ancient practices.
