[Buddha-l] Jung and Dignaga

[Vicente Gonzalez]

Hi Joanna,

I agree the paper shows the Jung interest in promoting himself in the
nazi regime. I don't think it can be enough to demonize him. About the
role of US, rest of developed countries are not very different in 20th
century damages.  It is just a problem of the historical moment and
who is the owner of economics and knowledge. Other countries would
made no different things in a similar situation. There are not
isolated paradises in this earth neither special human beings in some
nation.



happy new year,
