Class 3- India – How Raja’s Son won Princess Labam Indian Fairy Tale by Ashok Bedi This is a delightful fairy tale which was edited by Englishman Joseph Jacobs in 1892 to introduce the British school children to Indian culture. In its simplicity, it lays out the process of individuation under the auspices of the Self archetype. It is the story of the search for the Anima – the princess. It explores the mystery of the “Fourth” that so fascinated Carl Jung. The dynamics of the missing fourth are amplified in Goethe’s Faust and established a core tenet of Analytical psychology. The fairy tale meanders in the three forests, each amplifying a crucial step in the individuation process. The prince encounters the princess in the fourth leg of his journey. It uses the motif of a talking parrot, ant and a lion – examples of the animal theomorphism, a very central theme in Hindu mythology. We will explore the archetypal motifs this tale uses as its’ GPS to navigate the journey. While the archetypes are the architects of the psyche, fairy tales are the builders that implement the intent of the Self archetype. True to the Kundalini Yoga tradition, the story creatively integrates our Triune brain – reptilian, limbic and neocortical. Join Ashok in exploring the mystery of this enchanting fairy tale from a Jungian, Indian and Neuroscience perspective as a template for the individuation process.
