The Diamond and the Star 在线电子书 图书描述

With the world and the human race facing serious problems ranging from global warming, environmental despoliation, terrorism, war and a major economic downturn, many writers are trying to goad mankind into action. The author argues they 'are written in an evangelical or rhetorical way, as though society can somehow be swayed into adopting some new or improved consciousness'. His aim is to 'open some eyes' so that responsible action may follow. To do this, he draws on his own experience, both as a chemist working as a patent agent, and as having undergone two years of analysis at the Jung Institute in Zurich. From this came the realization that, as Jung put it, for 'the whole to change, the individual must change himself'. It is too easy to make politicians, scientists and big business the scapegoats for the failings of the world. As Schumacher, author of "Small is Beautiful", wrote, the problems 'lie too deep in the heart and soul of every one of us. It is there that the main work of reform has to be done'. In a quest for understanding, the author, like Jung, turned to the ancient Chinese philosophy of Taoism and began to appreciate the significance of symbols as a subtle way of conveying understanding. Contemplating 'The Diamond Body', a Self symbol described in Richard Wilhelm's "The Secret of the Golden Flower", led him, as a chemist, to recognize the important nature of the tetrahedron, both as the simplest form of solid with four corners and faces and its crystalline expression in the Chinese Self symbol of the Diamond Body. He also realized the huge symbolic importance of the quaternity represented by the four valences of carbon in the structure of all living matter. 'The diamond and the star', writes the author, 'are such wonderful symbols that I have tried to observe them in a variety of contexts, so that their magic may stimulate the imagination'.
