Jung is
the only scientists I know of who seems to understand the material reality of
the immaterial phenomenon I like to call the Living truth, which he calls the
psychoid, and is the basis of numerous theological and metaphysical concepts,
such as Christ and Buddha, to mention just two.

Synchronicity: An Acausal Connecting Principle: From The Collected Works of C.G. Jung, Volume 8, Bollingen Series XX (1960), translated by: R.F.C. Hull (1973), 2010 edition
This
book, originally a scientific paper written by one of my favorite scientists of
all time (one of the rare scientists willing to admit to the crippling
limitations of the so-called scientific method), was a bit over my head. Jung
assumes he is writing for other well educated scientists, and makes no qualms
about quoting Greek, Latin, or some other original source to make a point. Thus
many points are lost to me, but I was able to understand enough to at least
bolster my own grasp of what Jung himself considered his most significant
contribution to the art of science: synchronicity.
