Samuel Bendeck Sotillos: Deification of the Psyche

[Paul Ferguson]

"Jung diagnosed the modern mental health crisis as being caused by the decline of religion in modernism. Yet by doing so, he unintentionally reintroduced the religious impulse - through the deification of the psyche...Regarding alchemy, Jung mistakenly attributes it to the psychological plane rather than seeing it as a method for spiritual transformation which also necessarily incorporates the intermediary realm of the human psyche."
