Carl Jung, Answer to Job (1952)
It is only through the psyche that we can establish that God acts upon us, but we are unable to distinguish whether these actions emanate from God or from the unconscious. We are unable to distinguish whether God and the unconscious are two different entities.
Both are borderline concepts for transcendental contents. But empirically... there is in the unconscious an archetype of wholeness which manifests itself spontaneously in dreams, and a tendency, independent of the conscious will, to relate other archetypes to this center.
Consequently, it does not seem improbable that the archetype produces a symbolism which has always characterized and expressed the Deity... The God-image does not coincide with the unconscious as such, but with a special content of it: namely the archetype of the self. It is this archetype from which we can no longer distinguish the God-image empirically.

Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.
The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.
When Gandhi met the literature laureate Rabindranath Tagore, year 1940.
It was a known fact that Tagore admired Mahatma Gandhi as a political leader and a person. It was Tagore who popularized and associated the term 'Mahatma' for Gandhi. However, they shared completely different views on science, nationalism, social and economic development, and patriotism.
