Looking for thoughtful Muslim dialogue partner

[Craz]

Yes, with regard to science and psychology, Yes Jung first got me thinking in terms that the ground of reality is actually, image/imaginal, and symbolic before it is embodied and material.

And Jung had a number of essays on eastern spirituality that were very informative to me. He is often clear about writing from a "westerner" perspective and yet stays very grounded in my reading. I read that commentary of his a while ago, but I have not read the actual treatise itself, but I think I understand what Jung takes to be the intention of the text, which is profound to say the least. Do you feel he opens up the text and initiates the reader into it, or do you think he ends up psychologizing something that was originally intended as a spiritual discipline?

I haven't yet studied both the text and Jung's comments enough, however from some of the reading which I have done, I get the feeling that Jung doesn't fully get, (what he calls) 'the Eastern mind'. He does hint that he thinks psychoananlysis can arrive at the same 'destination' as the meditation referred to in the text.
Regarding the text, I decided to dive straight in myself because I didn't want to be too influenced from Jung.
So far, parts of it are clear in that I understand the English and it does invoke inner archetypes just like the mandalas I told you about in my early years of meditation.
In other parts, I am having difficulty in understanding the English. The writer uses many words I just have never heard of and it is not always easy to understand the meaning by the context.
I'll need to put in a lot more effort to get a better understanding.
