hello everyone !
I thought it would be a good idea to put this into creative action. If it is not the case, thank you to the moderators to put it in the appropriate section.
On the forum it seems to me that there are many of us who are close to Jung's thoughts and writings. I have come to tell you some good news (I hope) about the success of a networking project that will culminate in the first university colloquium in France entirely on Jung's thought. The theme of the colloquium will be articulated on alchemy, esotericism, medicine and will be spread over two days. To explain how this was possible, we have to go back 8 years, in 2012. (attention my post may be long)
During my studies in psychology, I never really understood why Jung was absent and that the only thought we were taught was the horrible Freud and Lacan. Reducing human psyche to a sexual principle did not suit me at all.
For my third year, we had to carry out a study work (a kind of mini-master thesis) I looked for a teacher who was interested in Jung because I wanted to work on synchronicity. I managed to find him and I told him that it would be good to bring Jung back to the university because I had noticed that more and more students were interested in him. If I remember correctly, he replied that it wasn't the right time, but in that, at the time, I thought it was because he might be the only one in the psychology department. At the same time I had to find a tutor for my internship and I sent him an email to see if he knew any and if possible was interested in Jung and synchronicity but he didn't answer me.
Two months later, a friend invited me to come to a university study day with lots of lecturers all day long. Having never been there before, I said yes, why not?
So I attend this day and a lecturer starts talking about Jung and synchronicity (what a miracle, I say to myself) neither one nor two, I go to see him at the end of the lecture and we go to a room to eat with other professors and students. We then begin to discuss Jung, synchronicity and the theory of the future that already exists in the state of potential via retrocausality. Pleasantly surprised, he gives me his email address so that we can exchange on the subject. Soon later he will be my tutor for my intership.
At the same time, the professor with whom I wanted to do my study work on Jung arrives in the room, I say hello to him and we make the presentations with the lecturer. At that moment we were three Jungians connected
In 2015, I am contacted by an aikido teacher from the university who asks to meet me because one of my acquaintances told him that I was interested in Jung. We meet and discuss these projects, including his willingness to create an association focused exclusively on the correspondence between Jung and Pauli. He also talks to me about the link between the collective unconscious and the movements of the body in trance during the modified states of consciousness related to aikido. I kept a sporadic contact with this person and he invited me to a small study day in a tiny room, we were at most 20-25 people with some of them who knew absolutely nothing about Jung.
In the spring of 2018, I find out about the possibilities of having a study day on Jung with the people I met. I ask my master's supervisor if she would be willing to be the scientific representative of the day (obligatory to have the conference room) she accepts with pleasure and by the same token puts me in contact with the professor I met in 2013 (we go back in time ^^) This professor asks me for my phone number and calls me, I explain to him that we would like to organize a study day on Jung at the university and that I have lecturers on hand to animate this day. He asks me if I can put them in touch by giving them a phone number and email address, which I agreed to do.
Shortly afterwards, these people met and it was intellectual love at first sight, if I may say so. the discussions for a study day were on the table between researchers. At this time we were five Jungians connected
September 2018 comes the beginning of the university year and there I learn that this professor that I met in 2012 will give us lessons on Jung and invites us to a seminar with one of his friends, a professor of medicine, around the theme of medicine and esotericism. I wasn't expecting it !
During the year 2019 I made the link between all his people and I learn that a first meeting at the personal home of this professor met in 2012 took place without my being invited (I was a little disappointed because all these years, I had managed to gather people).
But something else happened in september 2019, we are the day of my final exam to become a psychologist (master thesis defence). In front of me, to evaluate me, it was that famous professor met in 2012.
After the jury's deliberation, he gives me my grade and invites me to take part in the group's activities at his personal home in order to set up the first university colloquium on Jung's thought.
What an adventure ! Moreover, It was not planned that I would participate in this colloquium as a speaker, but I have been asked to do so, so I will discuss the corruption and perversion of Jungian thought by the post-modernist and the need to reappropriate Jungian concepts with objectivity (especially with the synchronicity and anima / animus used to promote transgenderism). the people I have met in this adventure during these years and with whom I have kept in touch are part of the group that is helping to organize the colloquium and some of them will also be speakers.
This colloquium will be filmed by the services of the university and the work of the speakers will be published in a book. In fact we sincerely hope that this will be somekind of a start to bring back jung at college
I tried to write as best I could, English is not my native language. Thank you for reading me !
