More than an insightful psychologist, Carl Gustav Jung was the twentieth century' s greatest articulator of the primacy of mind in nature, a view whose origins vanish behind the mists of time. Underlying Jung' s extraordinary body of work, and providing a foundation for it, there is a broad and sophisticated system of metaphysical thought. This system, however, is only implied in Jung' s writings, so as to shield his scientific persona from accusations of philosophical speculation. The present book scrutinizes Jung' s work to distil and reveal that extraordinary, hidden metaphysical treasure: for Jung, mind and world are one and the same entity; reality is fundamentally experiential, not material; the psyche builds and maintains its body, not the other way around; and the ultimate meaning of our sacrificial lives is to serve God by providing a reflecting mirror to God' s own instinctive mentation. Embodied in this compact volume is a journey of discovery through Jungian thoughtscapes never before revealed with the depth, force and scholarly rigor you are about to encounter.
Bernardo Kastrup has a Ph. D. in philosophy and another in computer engineering. He has been a scientist in some of the world' s foremost scientific laboratories. His main interests are metaphysics and philosophy of mind. He lives in Veldhoven, Netherlands.
