Encounters with Light: Jung’s near-death experiences
Carl Jung’s near-death experience (NDE) during a heart attack profoundly influenced his psychological theories and personal philosophy.

He encountered a temple-like structure within a meteoric stone and a mystical figure, experiences that resonated with his concepts of the collective unconscious and archetypal imagery. This transformative journey intensified his understanding of the psyche’s connection to universal consciousness and solidified his belief in life beyond physical existence. Upon reluctantly returning to his body, Jung felt constrained by the material world, reinforcing his dedication to exploring the depths of the human spirit and the continuity of consciousness after death. This profound experience deeply enriched his work and theories, leaving a lasting impact on both his professional contributions and personal worldview.
