The New God-Image by Edward F Edinger

C. G. Jung saw in the cultural history of Western man a progressive evolution of its God-image. During the last ten years of his life, he wrote a series of remarkable letters about the new God-image which is now emerging through the discoveries of depth psychology.

Dr. Edward Edinger has selected fourteen of these letters to discuss and has segmented the book into the following three parts:

EPISTEMOLOGICAL PREMISES - Modern man's new awareness of subjectivity

THE PARADOXICAL GOD-The nature of the new God-image as a union of opposites

CONTINUING INCARNATION-How the new God-image is born in individual men and women

If enough individuals have had that transformative experience conjunctio] within themselves, then they become seeds sown in the collective psyche which can promote the unification of the collective psyche as a whole. How many will it take? . I think each individual ought to live his life out of the hypothesis that maybe one would do.

-Edward F. Edinger
