Jung: Scientist or Mystic?

It is nonsense to call Carl Jung a mystic just because he was interested in the occult. It is unfortunate that his work is often hi-jacked by those needing to give legitimacy to a particular supernatural view of the universe. There is no doubt that Carl Jung considered himself to be a scientist. His psychology was to have been a natural science, not merely a school of psychotherapy. Jung wrote: "The treatment of psychology should in general be characterised by the principle of universality. No special theory or special subject should be propounded, but psychology should be taught in its biological, ethnological, medical, philosophical, cultural-historical and religious aspects". - Quote from The Psychology of Jung, CA Meier (1984)
