JUNGIAN ENCOUNTER WITH THE SOUL OF SRI LANKA
Sponsored by the C.G. Jung Foundation of New York
Guest Faculty – Ashok Bedi M.D., Jungian Psychoanalyst
JANUARY 8 – 20, 2017
The C.G. Jung Foundation of New York is proud to sponsor the twelfth educational tour
to the Subcontinent, to Sri Lanka in 2017, C.G. Jung’s last stop on his journey in 1937.
This trip is an opportunity to see Sri Lanka through the lens of analytical psychology. It
will allow participants to perceive the archetypal depths of life and psyche expressed in
their myth and art, and to understand how the experience and expression of these archetypal
dimensions greatly influenced culture and civilization. We are honored to have
once again as our guest faculty Dr. Ashok Bedi.
Ashok Bedi, M.D., is a psychiatrist and Jungian analyst. Educated and trained in India,
Great Britain, and the United States. He is a member of the Royal College of Psychiatrists

practice of Psychiatry and Jungian Psychoanalysis in Milwaukee (414 219 9039). Dr.
Bedi is the liaison for the International Association for Analytical Psychology (IAAP) for
developing Jungian training programs in India, where he travels annually to teach, train,
and consult with the Jungian Developing groups at several centers including those in
Ahmedabad and Mumbai.
Dr. Bedi is interested in the emerging frontiers of Spirituality and Healing and the
synapses of the Mind, Body, Soul and Spirit. He is author of several books includingCrossing
the Healing Zone: From Illness to Wellness, Nicholas Hayes Inc. 2013, Path to
the Soul, Weiser Books, 2000, Awaken the Slumbering Goddess: The Latent Code of

Join us in this encounter with India’s
Southern Neighbor Sri Lanka, formerly
Ceylon. During C.G. Jung’s visit to India
between December 1937 and February
1938, Sri Lanka was the last stop
on his Indian venture – the journey
formed an intermezzo in his intensive
study of alchemical philosophy that he
was engaged in at that time. Jung and
his party exited India from Bow’s End
near Rameshwaram by ferry and
reached Colombo, Ceylon on January
29, 1938 and took a train journey to Kandy. He returned to Colombo and gave a memorable
talk on Dreams at the Rotherfield Society there and sailed homeward on S.S. Corfu
on February 2, 1938. Sri Lanka as a single country existed independent of India from
ancient times. The Anuradhapura kingdom ruled whole of Sri Lanka from 377 BC to
1017 AD.
