The Collected Writings of Murray Stein – Volume 8


Book Description

While the Jungian approach to spirituality departs from specific religious beliefs and practices and does not privilege any in particular, it retains an attitude of respect for the variety of experiences of the numinous and for all God images. Spirituality is a central feature of the individuation process. The essays in Volume 8 of The Collected Writings of Murray Stein are dedicated to reflecting on and expanding this core principle.




The Collected Writings of Murray Stein - Volume 5


Book Description

Dr. Murray Stein’s prolific career has produced a substantial body of writings, lectures, and interviews. His writings, captured in these volumes, span a wide domain of topics including Christianity, individuation, midlife, the practice of analytical psychology, and topics in contemporary society. His deep understanding of analytical psychology is much more than an academic discourse, but rather a deeply personal study of Jung that spans nearly half a century. Analytical Psychology and Christianity is the fifth volume of the Collected Writings of Murray Stein and explores Jung's personal relationship to his own religious tradition, namely Christianity. Jung wrestled intensely with Christian rituals, theology, and personal practice. These topics preoccupied Jung for much of his life. In this volume, Murray Stein illuminates Jung’s relationship with Christianity and how he strove to restore its transcendent symbols. Jung and Stein offer guidance for Christianity to flourish into the 21st Century and beyond.

Book Description

Dr. Murray Stein's prolific career has produced a substantial body of writings, lectures, and interviews. His writings, captured in these volumes, span a wide domain of topics that include writings on Christianity, Individuation, Mid-life, the practice of Analytical Psychology, and topics in contemporary society.

The unifying theme of the papers collected in this volume is the individuation process as outlined by C.G. Jung and adopted and extended by later generations of scholars and psychoanalysts working in the field of analytical psychology. Individuation is a major contribution to developmental psychology and encompasses the entire lifetime no matter its duration. The unique feature of this notion of human development is that it includes spiritual as well as psychosocial features. The essays in this volume explain and expand on Jung's fundamental contributions.

Transformation is a word used often in discussions of psychological and spiritual development. The works in this collection are directed at an assessment of this developmental process on a personal, individual level as well as on a cultural level. These works extend from consideration of transformation in the lives of great figures like Rilke, Rembrandt, Picasso, Jung, and Dante to cultural topics like the changing God image in modern times. With the world in flux, transformation is a topic of relevance on many levels of human existence.
