Clarke, Robert B. AN ORDER OUTSIDE TIME : A Jungian View Of The Higher Self From Egypt To Christ
Charlottesville, Virginia, U.S.A. Hampton Roads 2005 1571744223 / 9781571744227 First Edition Softcover Very Good +
xxxiii, + 453pp. Book clean, square. Spine firm. Leaves clean. Illustrated card wrapper negligibly scuffed only. "In 'An Order Outside Time', Clarke reinterprets Western Spirituality, using Jungian symbolism, to show that the great stories of ancient Egypt and of the Old and New Testament are processes of what Jung called individuation. This is the individual's journey from lowest to highest self; from Osiris to Horus, from Moses to Joshua, from David to Solomon, from John the Baptist to Jesus Christ . . . Clarke traces the connections among Egyptian, Jewish and Christian mythology, and - concluding that we can attain wholeness only by making sense of the clues provided by our mythology. This is the royal line of Higher Self incarnations through the collective unconscious." Contents include: Introduction, 13 chapters, Conclusion, Bibliography, Index. Book weight approx. 670g.
