The body is merely the visibility of the soul, the psyche; and the soul is the psychological experience of the body. > [!Orbit] [[Marion Woodman]] says… > How do you come into your body at 50 or 70? By doing any bodywork that is not based on power over the body. Because the body will not take any more power. It will just say, “If that’s the game, I’m not playing.” And you cannot lose weight. Love the body. Gradually you will come through to all that is buried in the body. But you have to love it in order to make a container that will release the pain. > [!Orbit] [[C. G. Jung]] in *Visions Seminar* > Only if you first return to your body, to your earth, can [[Individuation]] take place, only then does the thing become true. (p. 1314) > [!Orbit] [[C. G. Jung]] > The human psyche lives in indissoluble union with the body. > [!Orbit] [[C. G. Jung]] > The symbols of the Self arise from the depths of the body. > [!Orbit] [[C. G. Jung]] in *CW10* > But if we can reconcile ourselves to the mysterious truth that the spirit is the life of the body seen from within, and the body the outward manifestation of the life of the spirit — the two being really one— (para 295) Or could use words psyche and soma > [!Orbit] Kabir > Enter into your own body. There you have a solid place for your feet. Think about it carefully. Don’t go some place else. Kabir says, “just throw off all thoughts of imaginary things and stand firm in that which you are.” > [!Orbit] [[C. G. Jung]] in *CW7* > A wrong functioning of the psyche can do much to injure the body. (para 194) > [!Orbit] [[C. G. Jung]] in *Zarathustra Seminar* > We suffer very much from the fact that we consist of mind and have lost the body. (p. 361) > [!Orbit] [[C. G. Jung]] in *Zarathustra Seminar* > Inasmuch as the living body contains the secret of life, it is an intelligence. (p. 361) > [!Orbit] [[C. G. Jung]] in *Zarathustra Seminar* > The spirit can easily be anything, but the earth can only be something definite. So remaining true to the earth would mean maintaining your conscious relationship to the body. (p. 66) > [!Orbit] [[C. G. Jung]] in *Zarathustra Seminar* > Soul and body are not two things. They are one. (p. 355) > [!Orbit] [[Marion Woodman]] in *Addiction to Perfection* > First, I believe that femininity is taking responsibility for our bodies, so that the body becomes the tangible expression of the spirit within. > [!Orbit] [[Robertson Davies]] in *Fifth Business* > I am deep in the old man’s puzzle, trying to link te wisdom of the body with the wisdom of the spirit until the two are one. At my age you cannot divide spirit from body without anguish and destruction, from which you will speak nothing but crazy lies! (pp. 171-172) > [!Orbit] [[C. G. Jung]] in *Zarathustra Seminars* > For what is the body? The body is merely the visibility of the soul, the psyche; and the soul is the psychological experience of the body.
