Many of the people who have been reading me over the years must remember that once upon a time I was “in love” with Carl Gustav Jung.

My phone buzzed at 6:06 a.m. with a text message from a good friend saying, “All ready to leave for your school. I’m excited,” with a smiley face emoticon at the end.

There I was impressed by the main lecturer, Dr. Emmanuel Gatchalian, 87 years old and still going strong. "I will never retire," he said. He spoke about depression in a way I would not have expected from a man of his age. He welcomed psychiatrists to alleviate depression, drugs, and talk therapy, he said, though he said it with a note of apology, as if we had to get used to the notion of therapy.

You need to pick up your exercises, I murmured to myself, simply smiling at the crowd around me. I did not know many of them but there was L., who had been my student in writing class, a jolly, happy woman, and N., who attended one of our tree seminars. It was a good crowd, here, taking the Basic Jung seminar at the Ateneo University at Rockwell. Early that Thursday morning, before I knew them all intimately, that’s all I could say.

[Summary] => I am a Jung disciple. I love the way he thinks, his philosophies, everything about him. So every time the Friends of Jung stage a seminar, they send me a notice and every time I write about them for my own reasons. I believe that to save the world we must all turn Jungian. If you are a member of the Friends of Jung Society, you will know that is a joke because, if forced to articulate Carl Gustav Jung’s philosophy in a single sentence, I would say: Know and save yourself, if you’re lucky. Otherwise it would be simply: Know yourself.

Do you try to sleep well but when you awake, you’re still tired, feeling restless, tasteless? Do you need to stimulate yourself somehow? Once I felt that way. Then one morning I was scanning the newspaper and saw a notice about a Jung seminar to be held at the Ateneo by the Friends of Jung Society. I called. I went. I was conquered. That was a superb experience – new knowledge, new intimate friends, lasting connections. To this day I like to recommend people to the seminars organized by the Friends of Jung. They are magical, delightful, enchanting.
