Jung and Fate, page-3

    A fair observation and one that is hard to disprove.

    Jung took an introspective view of the world in the above essay and he concluded fate is there for a reason---to give us the opportunity to increase our level of consciousness.

    In his memoir, Memories, Dreams, Reflections, Jung notes how

    "From the beginning I had a sense of destiny, as though my life was assigned to me by fate and had to be fulfilled. This gave me an inner security, and, though I could never prove it to myself, it proved itself to me.

    I did not have this certainty, it had me. Nobody could rob me of the conviction that it was enjoined upon me to do what God wanted and not what I wanted. That gave me the strength to go my own way."
