In Guild Lecture No. 3, Jungian analyst and C.G. Jung Foundation founder Dr. Heinz Westmann delivers a profound depth-psychological study of Hebrew scripture. Westmann demonstrates how Old Testament narratives record the evolution of human consciousness and the journey toward individuation. Mapping key biblical figures (in particular Esau and Jacob were twin brothers and the grandsons of Abraham) and the ancient Hebrew experience of Yahweh onto the ego's confrontation with the objective unconscious and the transpersonal Self, Westmann draws on Rabbinic tradition and analytical theory to present scripture as a living framework for spiritual and psychological integration.
