Secret of the Golden Flower: A Chinese Book of Life 1955 by Carl G. Jung
4.0
This ancient Taoist text (only around 40 pages) had an enormous influence on Jung and the development of his personality theories. He discovered it shortly after his break with Freud. This version contains commentary by Richard Wilhelm and a meaty introduction by Jung.
Jung: “The art of letting things happen, action through non-action, letting go of oneself, as taught by Meister Eckhart, became for me the key opening the door to the way. We must be able to let things happen in the psyche. For us, this actually is an art of which few people know anything. Consciousness is forever interfering, helping, correcting, and negating, and never leaving the simple growth of the psychic processes in peace.”
