Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
This book is about the individual's journey to psychological wholeness, known in analytical psychology as the process of individuation. Edward Edinger traces the stages in this process and relates them to the search for meaning through encounters with symbolism in religion, myth, dreams, and art. For contemporary men and women, Edinger believes, the encounter with the self is equivalent to the discovery of God. The result of the dialogue between the ego and the archetypal image of God is an experience that dramatically changes the individual's worldview and makes possible a new and more meaningful way of life.

I have actualy proof the JungISTS here on the reviews and those tagging YES votes, ...all JungISTS..are atheists/agnostics...something I've known for 2 yrs now..
Look at one reviewers cooment...* I am agnostic*
28 of 30 say his comments are helpful
The JungISTS have made a good thing of Jung...Its now JungISM..as we all know ISMs are what make this world evil...idiologies destroy the soul
I've had this book for 15 yrs and have always felt its *dry bones*. As Jung predicted after his death would happen.
His spirit would fall among *theives and robbers*
For those FEW true alchemists like myself out in the world, you do not need to be advised to avoid this book. It should be instinctual within you to know the *good from the bad*

After seeing all the positive reviews on here I had to try this book. I can tell you they are all true.
When I very first started reading I wasn't too sure considering much of the very first chapter I was familiar with. However as to be expected Ego and Archetype proved to be enlightening and inspiring. If at any point you have studied Jung and was interested in the process of Individuation. Or if you are looking for a guide to living a healthy meaningful life this book should help.
While this book could easily be considered a self help book it should be not confused with most books out there. The information in this text makes Ego and Archetype worth more then its mass in gold.
I would like to suggest that before reading this text however (if you are new to Jungian Psychology) to read at least "Man and His Symbols" and if you can "The Undiscovered Self" as well. These will at the least give you a basic understanding of where Edward Edinger is coming from.
A must read for anyone who feels abandoned, thinks they know it all, are a spiritualist, or religious.
I can only wish I had been graced with the knowledge in this text sooner.

I found this book very satisfying. It is clear and elucidates Jung's concept of the Self better than anything I have encountered hitherto. The illustrations come from the great sources of Western Civilation and world art so they provide an illuminating frame of reference for the multiple facets of the main concepts of the book. The writer obviously is a master of the subject and everything he says and uses contributes vitally to the work. I cannot recommend this book highly enough.

This is the best interpretation of the Scriptures according to Jungian psychoanalysis. It is recommended to everybody who has doubts in the dogmaic Chrisitan way to read the Bible and it is a source for individual wholeness for those who try to find it in the Scriptures.

I read Edinger's work in the late 70s after an intense spiritual awakening which was very first expressed in Christian fundamentalism in the early 70s. During a time of study at the C.G. Jung Foundation and the New School (New York City) I began to discover the spiritual meaning and personal potential of the Christian myth. The work continues to this day, and I am thankful to Edinger and others (Neumann, Jacobi, Von Franz, Whitmont) who extended the insights of Jung for pioneers along the path of individuation.
