Jung’s Black Books with Sonu Shamdasani Ph.D.
We welcome Sonu Shamdasani, PhD, scholar and historian of depth psychology and Jung’s opus. His research and expertise were instrumental in bringing Jung’s Red Book to the public in 2009. Jung’s Black Books, the journals in which he recorded “my most difficult experiments,” have just been published. We discuss Jung’s encounters with figures and images from his psychic depths–experiences foundational to Jung’s subsequent work and which opened a portal to humankind’s imaginal mind and mythic substrata.
The Philemon Foundation, which Dr. Shamdasani co-founded in 2003, is dedicated to bringing forward more of Jung’s unpublished manuscripts and correspondence—and now needs your financial support to continue bringing Jung’s vital ideas to the world.

Hi Jon thank-you for posting the link I am really looking forward to reading it but it no longer opens to the article. Can you advise?
Thank you so much!
Another excellent podcast, so illuminating on how much more of Jung’s work there is to be brought into the public domain. Daunting and exciting! Thanks to everyone at Philemon working to shrink “the iceberg” so the refreshing water released can be better circulated and to This Jungian Life for its invaluable contribution.
Thank you for this podcast and, especially to Prof. Sonu Shamdami and the Philemon Foundation! I decided to and made a finacial contribution to the Philemon Foundation.
Thank you, Dr. Taborda.
Thank you so much for this wonderful podcast
