Enthusiasm for the ways and ideas of ancient China and India, especially for Buddhism, Taoism, and Yoga, has flourished in the West since Carl Gustav Jung was first drawn to the East in the early decades of the century. Western fascination with the ways of the East has indeed been growing ever since Jesuit missionaries first went to Asia in the sixteenth century, and the love affair with the East, which has been such a remarkable feature of the cultural life of our century, would certainly have occurred without Jung’s help. Nevertheless, he was in many ways a pioneer in this field, one of the first. | JUNG AND EASTERN THOUGHT A Dialogue with the Orient J. J. CLARKE Also available as a printed book see title verso for ISBN details JUNG AND EASTERN THOUGHT In Jung and Eastern Thought J.J. Clarke seeks to uncover the seriousness and relevance of Jung s dialogue with the philosophical ideas of the East arising from the various forms of Buddhism from Chinese Taoism and from Indian Yoga. Through his commentaries on such books as the I Ching and The Tibetan Book of the Dead and various essays on Zen Eastern meditation and the symbolism of the mandala Jung attempted to build a bridge of understanding between Western psychology and the practices and beliefs of Asian religions and thereby to relate traditional Eastern thought to contemporary Western concerns. This book offers a critical examination of this remarkable piece of intellectual bridgebuilding first by assessing its role in the development of Jung s own thinking on the human psyche secondly by discussing its relationship to the wider dialogue between East and West and thirdly by examining it in the light of urgent contemporary concerns and debates about inter-cultural understanding. J.J. Clarke has taught philosophy at McGill University Montreal and at the University of Singapore. He is currently Senior Lecturer at Kingston University UK where he is director of the degree programme in the history of ideas. His book In Search of Jung has recently been published by Routledge.
