Red Book video from Asheville Jung Center

There are some really interesting videos posted by the Asheville Jung Center on vimeo.com. Here is a 10-minute excerpt of Murray Stein‘s 3-hour seminar on The Red Book which was hosted as a live webinar from Zurich by the Asheville Jung Center in January 2010. There is apparently a second webinar coming this spring—I’ll post an update when I find further information.

Another Video on the Red Book

This video is a really excellent and detailed description of The Red Book. It is from the Rubin Museum which hosted the first exhibition of The Red Book after it was published. Sonu Shamdasani, the editor of the book, narrates the video and gives a lot of historical detail about what Jung was up to in writing the book and how it came together. There are lots of images used from the book—please take the time to watch.

The Dream Team Speaks

Video on the Making of The Red Book

Here is a really cool video on the making of The Red Book—makes it look like a Hollywood thriller.

Carl Jung’s Destiny

“Jung saw his own destiny as that of an explorer, a man who creates new ways of conceptualizing age-old problems—psychological problems, as well as philosophical, spiritual, and religious ones. He said that he wanted to address those people who seek meaning in their lives, but for whom the traditional carriers of faith and religion no longer work.”
