In his seminars on Nietzsche’s “Zarathustra,” Dr. Carl Jung emphasized that we must eat the gold of the world until we are made of gold and not of hunger. Sacred Selfishness is the path of filling ourselves with gold. This path is based on the classic quest stories that reveal the path of renewed personal consciousness and help us examine all of our assumption about ourselves and our lives to assist us in uncovering our hidden potentials. Filling ourselves with gold is more than an intellectual exercise. It engages us fully in life and through growing self-knowledge softens and strengthens us while helping us to love life and other people. This lecture will explain how this idea evolved with Dr. Harris in the context of Dr. Jung’s theory of individuation. Dr. Harris will provide an overview of how this path unfolds theoretically and in everyday life, how real love grows from the foundation of self-love.
