Jung and Spinoza: Passage Through the Blessed Self: https://www.routledge.com/Jung-and-Spinoza-Passage-Through-The-Blessed-Self/Langan/p/book/9781032851853

In this episode of LEPHT HAND, host Serpetie aka Craig is joined by Dr. Robert Langan, author of Jung and Spinoza: Passage Through the Blessed Self, to explore the intersections between Carl Jung’s monistic philosophy—where spirit, matter, and psyche form an interconnected whole—and Baruch Spinoza’s vision of a unified substance. Jung’s approach to the unconscious and symbolic life resonates with Spinoza’s metaphysics, offering profound insights into the unity of existence and the nature of transformation. The discussion also covers Hegel’s interpretation of Spinoza, the connections between Jung and Deleuze, the role of Dr. Jordan Peterson in popularizing Jung’s ideas, and the complexities of Jung’s political views.
