" 'Religious (or symbolic) statements...refer with out exception to things that cannot be established as physical facts" C.G.Jung Answer to Job Collected Works 11 par 353-355 Edinger, Ego & Archetype p112

"The ultimate goal of Jungian psychotherapy is to make the symbolic process conscious." Edinger, Ego & Archetype p113

"An unconscious symbol is lived but not perceived. The dynamism of the unconscious symbol is experienced only as a wish or an urgency toward some external action. The image behind the urgency is not seen. No purely psychological meaning is discerned behind the motivating force of the symbolic image which has one in its grip. The ego, identified with the symbolic image, becomes its victim, condemned to live out concretely the meaning of the symbol rather than to understand it consciously. To the degree that the ego is identified with the archetypal psyche, the dynamism of the symbol will be seen and experienced only as an urge to lust or power." Edinger ,Ego and Archetype p 113

"...it is the symbolic image, acting as releaser and transformer of psychic energy, which lifts the instinctive urgency to another level of meaning and humanizes, spirtitualizes and acculturates the raw animal energy. The instinct contains its own hidden meaning which is revealed only by perceiving the image that lies embedded in the instinct." Edinger ,Ego and Archetype p 114

"To the extent that one is unaware of the symbolic dimensions of existence, one experiences the vicissitudes of life as symptoms...Symptoms [degraded symbols] are intolerable precisely because they are meaningless." Edinger, Ego & Archetype p117

"...the ego-Self axis and the symbolic life are encountered through the inferior function, the weakest portion of the personality. Only by awareness and acceptance of our weakness do we become conscious of something beyond the ego which supports us." Edinger, Ego & Archetype p126

"A man's foes are those of his own household because it is those to whom he is closest with whom he is most apt to be identified unconsciously. Such identifications must be dissolved because an awareness of radical separateness is a prerequisite for individuation." Edinger, Ego & Archetype p134

"To call no man father means to withdraw all projections of the father archetype and discover it within." Edinger, Ego & Archetype p134

"In order to withdraw projections and assimilate their content into one's own personality it is necessary to experience the loss of the projection as a prelude to rediscovering the content or value within." Edinger, Ego and Archetype p 136

" ...the unconscious takes the same attitude toward the ego as the ego takes toward the unconscious. " Edinger, Ego and Archetype p 137
