Carl Jung Doesn’t Believe in God (He Knows)

Carl Jung discussed his belief in God during a notable interview for the BBC television program “Face to Face,“ which aired on October 22, 1959. During the interview, host John Freeman asked Jung if he believed in God. Jung replied, “I don’t need to believe, I know.“ This statement has been widely interpreted and discussed in relation to Jung’s views on spirituality and the unconscious. Jung’s assertion reflects his deep engagement with religious and spiritual themes in his work, as well as his belief in the psychological reality of religious experiences. His perspective was not about God in a traditional doctrinal sense but rather about the presence of a higher reality or a numinous experience within the human psyche. What do you think about Jung’s statement? Do you believe in God or do you know God? #carljung #psychology #god
