The Secret of the Golden Flower
A Chinese Book of Life
Book • 1931
This book is an ancient Chinese text that reveals the path to true enlightenment through Taoist mysticism.
It combines elements of Buddhist and Confucian teachings and was first translated into German by Richard Wilhelm.

The book describes a method of meditation known as 'turning the light around,' which involves redirecting one's consciousness inward to achieve a state of inner transformation and enlightenment.
Jung's commentary helps to interpret the text from a psychological perspective, making it a valuable resource for both spiritual seekers and those interested in analytical and transpersonal psychology.
