The
Wizard of Bollingen
Ego
is as necessary to the self
as
air is to life, and yet there are those
like
Eckhart Tolle who say that ego
is
not real and that we do not have
a
self; but an epoch-making man, who
at
the age of twelve knew that he was
an
“I” separate from the stone that he sat
upon
when he was a boy of nine, went
on
to find the way out of the fog of life
and
prove to the world that the psyche
of
man was forever realizing it’s self,
and
that the ego was as necessary to the
individuation
process of the self as food
is
for survival, and that epochal man from
Kusnacht,
Switzerland was respectfully
known
by the local villagers as “the
wizard
of Bollingen.”
