Below, two reflections from Jung on the relationship between philosophy and psychology/psychotherapy—a relationship which to me explains why I feel so much kinship with psychologists and therapists, and why I so appreciate your work with mindfulness and compassion practices ;-)
[The] soul is a complicated thing, and it takes sometimes half a lifetime to get somewhere in one’s psychological development. You know, it is by no means always a matter of psychotherapy or treatment of neuroses. Psychology has also the aspect of a pedagogical method in the widest sense of the word. It is an education. It is something like antique philosophy, and not what we understand by a ‘technique.’ It is something that fixes upon the whole of [a person], and which challenges also the whole [person] in the patient . . . as well as in the doctor. (1977: 255)
I can hardly draw a veil over the fact that we psychotherapists ought really to be philosophers or philosophic doctors—or rather that we already are so, though we are unwilling to admit it because of the glaring contrast between our work and what passes for philosophy in the universities. We could also call it religion in statu nascendi, for in the vast confusion that reigns at the roots of life there is no line of division between philosophy and religion. (CW 16, para. 181)
