Seldom studied but se minal in Jung's work\, this Taoist text was Jung's introduction to alchemy .\nIn Friday evening's lecture we will study the series of ten mandalas wh ich Jung felt reflected the archetypal process of the formation of the sub tle body.\nIn Saturday’s workshop we will consider the text itself\, rea ding portions of Wilhelm’s and Taoist scholar Thomas Cleary’s translat ions. Hopefully we can approach this enigmatic text in an introverted spir it of contemplation and reflection.\nPatricia Damery\, MA is a writer and an analyst member of the C.G.
