“Not only do I leave the door open for the Christian message, but I consider it of central importance for Western man.”

C.G. Jung book Memories, Dreams, Reflections

Memories, Dreams, Reflections (1963)

Not only do I leave the door open for the Christian message, but I consider it of central importance for Western man. It needs, however, to be seen in a new light, in accordance with the changes wrought by the contemporary spirit.

A cry in the night,
Of anguish heart-stiking,
Of soul-killing fright.

Live for my living
Or else I must die
Don't leave me alone.
A world heard that cry.”
