[Buddha-l] Buddhism and Psychology research

[Timothy Smith]

Folks,

This, to me is the key issue in all this.  Had there been some deep-seated, intrinsic, bone-bred anti-semitism in Jung,
it would have been difficult to interact with not only Freud, but the other Jews he befriended and supported during
his long life.  

Of course this is not a demonstrable proof of his lack of anti-semitism, any more than the fact that his family
controls access to parts of his writing/thinking means they're hiding his anti-semitism.  Dan has it right though,
one should read Freud's accounts to understand how truly screwed up the whole deal became.

The end of their friendship was devastating to Jung, and troubling to Freud. As when all deep relationships come to an end, each party in the relationship had a different story to tell. Even psychoanalysts are not immune to the human tendency to lay blame at least some of the time and to attribute base motivations to the other party.
