Overview

The Wisdom of J. Marvin Spiegelman, Ph.D., Volume II- Psychology and Religion, is filled with the rich wisdom and deep knowledge acquired throughout many years of personal and professional experience, as a Jungian analyst, teacher, creative thinker and person on a quest. J. Marvin Spiegelman, Ph.D., (1926 - 2017) was a Diplomate in clinical psychology and graduate of the C.G. Jung Institute in Zurich, Switzerland. He had his own private practice in California. He taught at UCLA and USC, consulted and lectured widely in the U.S., Europe, and Japan. He was a prolific writer, beginning with his first book, The Tree of Life. It was part of the psycho-mythology series. Through the analysis of world myth, he explored the structures of the archetypes as they relate to the interior world of the individual. Volume II - Psychology and Religion samples many different books Dr. Spiegelman contributed to, as an editor and writer, in which he creatively studied world religions through the view point of Jungian Psychology. If we allow that God speaks to us individually and deeply we are all priests of Godwe can grant that the very multiplicity we witness is Gods experimentation with His and our nature. The Shema is both our truth and our goal. J. Marvin Speigelman Spiegelman tells us of Jungs religious dreams from Jungs autobiography, Memories, Dreams, Reflections, Pantheon Books, Random House, New York, 1961: Finally, there is one of the culminating experiences, the one where Jung rises to outer space and views the earth. He then enters a Hindu temple and sees himself as a yogi meditating upon himself, coming to the paradox: Am I the one dreaming this existence, or do I dream of myself in this other state? In short, Jungs is a kind of ecumenical or world myth. His mandala has the Anthropos at the center, the archetype of the divine man, and this seems both to fit with and transcend all the collective religions and myths that are extant.
