This book traces the pivotal role Jung played in reframing Buddhist thought as a psychological tradition, a shift that continues to influence contemporary interpretations of meditation, mindfulness, and the self. Exploring both the historical context of Jung’s engagement with Buddhism and its lasting impact, this book examines how his theories of individuation, the collective unconscious, and psychological typology resonated with Buddhist thought.

Dr Oliver Knox is an academic researcher and analytical psychologist, specialising in the history of psychology and religion. He completed his PhD at University College London under the supervision of Professor Sony Shamdasani, editor and translator of Jung’s Red Book and Black Books. |
