A SELECTION FROM C. G. JUNG'S
THE SPIRITUAL PROBLEM WITH MODERN MAN:

"...I must say that the man we call modern... is by no means the average man.

He is rather the man who stands upon a peak,

or at the very edge of the world,
the abyss of the future before him,

above him the heavens,

and below him the whole of mankind with a history that disappears in primeval mists."

"It must be clearly understood that the mere fact of living in the present does not make a man modern, for in that case everyone at present alive would be so. He alone is modern who is fully conscious of the present. The man who has attained consciousness of the present is solitary."
"The 'modern' man has at all times been so, for every step towards fuller consciousness removes him further from his original, purely animal participation mystique with the herd, from submersion in a common unconsciousness."
