Entanglement of brilliant minds

There is a secret, almost mysterious connection between deep psychology and quantum physics. Two great thinkers of the 20th century, Carl Gustav Jung and David Bohm, invited us to explore the depths of the collective unconscious and the implicit Universe, opening up visions aimed at a transcendental territory within the human psyche and the subtle order of cosmos itself.

Carl Jung, Swiss psychiatrist and pioneer of analytical psychology, introduced the concept of the collective unconscious. According to Jung, the individual shares a treasure of archetypes, symbols and profound images that resonate in the collective soul of humanity. For Jung, we are not just isolated individuals, but we are immersed in a common psychic ground that connects us with the ancestral past and with the eternal dance of the human being.

In an apparently distant but mysteriously complementary perspective, we find David Bohm, a theoretical physicist known for his contributions to quantum physics. Bohm proposed the idea of an implicit Universe, in which reality goes beyond particles and classical physical laws. For Bohm, the Universe is woven of a subtle order, in which every part is in direct connection with the whole, a totality that exists beyond the limitations of human observations.

Although these two geniuses belong to different cognitive spheres, we note that their theories interface and merge, creating a symphony of philosophical and metaphysical ideas. Both authors nurtured a profound curiosity towards the longing for the transcendent, for the exploration of the mysteries of the human soul and for the search for a universal meaning.

Both Jung's Collective Unconscious and Bohm's Implicit Universe emphasize the interconnection between all things, revealing the presence of an invisible and unifying universal level that permeates every aspect of our reality. The book aims to investigate our connection with this invisible universal order.

Jung and Bohm, with their enlightened words, offer us keys to access unknown worlds, words that awaken our senses, set our minds in motion and push us to ask uncomfortable but vital questions: What is the true nature of human beings ? How do we relate to the universe around us? How can we better understand our place in this cosmic vastness?

As we explore the works of Jung and Bohm, we will come across extraordinary quotes that awaken and nourish our thirst for knowledge and intuition. Jung, in his essay "The archetype and the collective unconscious", wrote: "He who looks outwards dreams, he who looks inwards awakens". These words inspire us to look beyond appearances, to delve into the depths of the human soul, in search of that buried wisdom that connects us to something greater.

Bohm, on the other hand, gave us a unique insight into the nature of reality, arguing: "The profound order of everything goes beyond particles, their interactions and physical laws." This statement pushes us to consider the Universe as a living organism, connected in unthinkable and still unexplored ways, a universe in which quantum physics assigns us the decisive role of "observers". At the same time Jung invites us to observe ourselves through individuation, that is, the search for our own "Self".

Through the comparison of Jung's theories on the collective unconscious and Bohm's on the implicit Universe, we will be able to reveal the philosophical and metaphysical aspects common to these two perspectives which, at first glance, seem to belong to different fields. This book will invite us to ask ourselves fundamental questions about the nature of existence, the meaning of our life and the connection between our inner world and the external universe.
