He was an ardent Freemason and Grand Master of the Swiss lodge.
He studied alchemy!
He also studied buddhism, zen buddhism and tao...
now you as well as me reckon the dualism of our mind. thinking + being and we come to see that thinking is a part of being.
Krishnamurti and Castaneda are spiritual teachers and will teach how to cultivate being. excellent, most people never come this far.
but... that doesn't mean that the thinking, scientific mind is all of a sudden an inferior part of us. they are 2 aspects of a whole.
in the beginning of last century Jung was a student from Freud; they were pioneers of that new science - the science of the mind, psychology. if you like, the western/scientific response to the eastern way of looking at thought and thinking.
Jung and Freud were very good friends but Jung saw the flaws of Freud's (pioneering) theories. one day Jung had some scripts ready to be published and he talked about them with his wife.
the ideas in the scripts were opposed to Freud's findings and Jung wanted to hear from his wife whether to publish them or not. Jung thought that if he would publish them it would upset Freud and their deep and long friendship would be finished. his wife thought that Freud would understand and have respect for newer/different views and that he would approach the situation as an integer man.
Jung published the scripts...
the rest is history...
Jung was an excellent writer. his prosaic skills and so writing style are frowned upon by cold, factual scientists; on the other hand he was a genius as a scientist; so people who like well written prose may struggle with the high level of scientific content/insight of his writings.
you can say he was more accurate than Freud, indeed.
