What if the Bible were a Dream...
Live from Zurich with Murray Stein!

We apologize if you received an email earlier today with the incorrect seminar link. The green link below is now correct.
Dr. Murray Stein’s new book, The Bible as Dream: A Jungian Interpretation,
looks at the Bible as a Jungian analyst would a long dream series, in
which a personality and a self are emerging and coming into time and space
from out of the depths of the unconscious. The Bible is the story of a
collective individuation process. On September 15th, 2018, we will host a
live lecture where Dr. Stein will discuss his work on this book.
The lectures in this book are a work of respectful and loving interpretation.
The Bible presents a world elaborated with reference to a specific God
image. As the mythographer Karl Kerenyi puts it in writing about the
Greek gods and goddesses, every god and every goddess constitutes a
world. So it is too with the biblical God. The biblical world is the
visionary product of a particular people, the ancient Hebrews and the
early Christians, who delved deeply into their God image and pulled from
it the multitude of perspectives, rules for life, spiritual practices,
and practical implications that all together created the tapestry that
we find depicted in the canonical Bible. Yahweh is the heart and soul of
this world, its creator, sustainer, and destroyer. The Bible is a dream
that tells the story of how this world was brought into being in space
and time and what it means.
