In today's episode, Rick Alexander shares a paper he presented at the 2023 Mythologium Conference called Tantra and the Erotic Heart of Individuation.
In 1932, C.G. Jung first put depth psychology in dialogue with the Tantric worldview through his lectures on Kundalini Yoga. This paper is an attempt to dream that project forward, asking essential questions about how taking Tantra seriously might inform our ideas about how we relate to the soul, the body, and ultimately, the path of individuation.
