Lionel Corbett — A New Myth of God: Jung’s Notion of the Self, Compared to the Judeo-Christian God-image
The notion of “God” as a concept and an experience varies from one person, culture, religion, and philosophy to the next.
In this webinar, Lionel Corbett, MD, psychiatrist and Jungian analyst, will explore how Jung’s concept of the “Self” corresponds to an inner God-image within our psyche. He will compare this Self to the traditional Judeo-Christian understanding of God, and provide insights about how we can use Jung’s symbolic approach to connect with this God-image. How can we be more conscious of the way in which our complexes and projections cloud this connection and become problematic to our understanding of God?
Dr Corbett is the author of several books, including: Psyche and the sacred: The religious function of the psyche, and Understanding Evil: A guide for psychotherapists.
