Carl Gustav Jung was the 20th century's greatest articulator of the primacy of mind in nature, a view whose origins vanish behind the mists of time.

NEW COVER! BETTER GRAPHICS! Along with clarifying some traditional concepts, many new and original ideas are explored in this book such as using fractal theory and biology to explain life after death; the relationship between the golden rule and phi, the golden ratio; qualtum organics, a newly coined word differentiating a reality based on quality (values) rather than on quantity (things). These ideas are so outside of most people's conceptual framework, their "box", that it may require many readings to fully understand these revolutionary ideas. But you will enjoy reading this book over ...
