On July 26th this year, C.G. Jung would have turned 150 years old.


A man considered one of the most influential thinkers, psychiatrists, and psychologists of the 20th century, who inspired countless followers, brought together and continues to bring together intellectual and professional communities around him, paradoxically said: "Thank God I am Jung, and not a Jungian!" (Barbara Hannah, 1976). C.G. Jung encouraged people not to copy or worship him, but to responsibly seek their path, their identity, their connection with the unconscious, while creating a dialogue with the Other, remaining responsible to the Other and to Eternity.


"We are not of today or yesterday; we are of an immense age." – C.G. Jung, interview "Face-to-Face," 1959, 22:10 min.


On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of C.G. Jung's birth, Prof. Dr. Gražina Gudaitė spoke on LRT Radio. Why are Jung's ideas still alive and widespread in the 21st century? What is their significance today, in a period of collective tensions and crises? The conversation in Lithuanian: http://bit.ly/45nBbWz (from 01:20:40).
