Consciousness in Jung and Patañjali
Book • 2017
This book bridges Western psychology and Eastern wisdom by comparing Carl Jung's depth psychology with Patanjali's Yoga Sutras.
It explores the nature of consciousness, the ego, and the path to wholeness from both perspectives.
The book delves into key concepts such as the unconscious, archetypes, and the process of individuation, contrasting them with yogic principles like pure consciousness and the stilling of the mind.
Whitney examines the similarities and differences between the two systems, offering insights into healing and self-realization.
She also addresses the challenges of integrating these approaches in a Western context, emphasizing the importance of experiential understanding and cultural awareness.
