Presence of Jung

"This is a fairly well composed artistic montage of images and words (speaking and writing) set to the same music as "Matter of Heart." Therefore, while it does stand on its own as a presentation of Jung and the ideas of his psychology, I regard it as a companion to that other work that focuses on the man himself. In this work there are a lot more clips of Jung speaking from the 1957 interview on various subjects such as childhood, fantasy, myth, archetypes, persona, the mandala, and so on. It concludes with a wonderful display of his "confession of faith in stone" at Bollingen and a translation of the inscription on the square (or cube-like) piece that had been mistakenly delivered for the cornerstone of his tower garden wall. It is a beautiful poem that sums up Jung's life and philosophy."
Everyone Should Watch this DVD

"Jung talks about the importance of day dreaming, fantasies and dreams. He also talks about how those can created our reality which in turn creates de-ja-vu moments. Highly recommended for everyone."
Only for the serious

"This video gives a very good "sense" of C.G. Jung and is based on a filmed interview with him. It is just as the title says, "in his own words." It is excellent for anyone who has a serious interest in C.G. Jung or who is a serious student of Psychology. I will use it in the History of Psychology class that I teach for Psychology majors at the university where I work. The DVD is well made and includes interviews with other important followers of Jung. It is excellent historical footage."
