 what is wholeness?

WHOLENESS
A state in which
consciousness and the
unconscious work together in
harmony.
-Daryl Sharp, Jung Lexicon
 Man as a Whole being

To regard a person 'as a whole' can

mean many things. It cannot reasonably
mean knowing everything about a
person, but it must involve an adequate
idea of the various aspects of their
personality, from character, attitudes,
behaviour, to personal history and
abilities.
 Man as a Whole Being

This must include both the facts

and values of a person's life, how all
kinds of feelings, thoughts, behaviour
and relationships appear to that
person, including the relation to the
perceived past and present or the
anticipated future.
 Wholeness is the concept that
we contain all potential – potentials
for any action, thought, or energy
tone (Emotion or Feeling). These
“potentials” are the archetypes,
which are aspects of spirit
 Wholeness is having the potential
to display either pole of any duality:
good or bad, generous and selfish,
productive and lazy; all are the
manifestation of archetypes.
