I’m sitting late at night in a lonely cottage in the country surrounded by many favorite books which I’ve collected over a number of years. And as I look up at the shelves, I see that there’s a very large space. Occupied by the volumes of one man. Carl Gustav Jung, who left this world not more than a few weeks ago. And I’d like to talk tonight about some of the great things that I feel that Jung has done for me. And also the things which I feel to be his enduring contributions. Toward. The science of psychology of which he was such a great milestone. I began to read Jung when I first began to study Eastern philosophy in my late adolescence. And I’m eternally grateful to him. For what I would call a sort of balancing influence on the development of my fought. As an adolescent. In rebellion against the sterile. Christianity in which I was brought up I was labile to go absolutely overboard for exotic and foreign ideas. Until I read the extraordinarily wise commentary that he wrote to Leacock Bill Holmes translation of the Chinese Taoist text called the Secret of the Golden Flower. And it was Jung who helped me to remind myself that I was by I bringing in by tradition always a Westerner and I couldn’t escape from my own account. Conditioning. And that this inability to escape was not a kind of prison was the endowment of one’s being with certain capacities like one’s arms and legs and mouth and teeth and brain which could always be used constructively. And I feel it’s for this reason that I have always remained for myself in the position of the comparative philosopher, wanting to balance east and west rather than to go overboard with enthusiasm for exotic imports. But there are aspects of Jung’s work far beyond this that I want to discuss. And first of all I want to call attention to one. Fundamental principle that underlay all his work was most extraordinary and exemplified in Jung himself as a person. And this is what I would call his recognition of the polarity of life. That is to say, his resistance to what is to my mind, the disastrous and absurd hypothesis. That there is in this unit of us a radical and absolute conflict between good and evil light of the dark in us that can never never never be harmonised. This conflict has come up to us in a very vivid way in recent days. With the trial of Adolph Eichman.
