The predominant feature in the intellectual scene as we approach the end of the twentieth century is the rapid decline - even collapse of the dualistic- materialistic paradigm that has dominated world thought for several centuries. What may be called the Cartesian-Newtonian-Marxist paradigm, based on an incurable dichotomy between matter and mind, has been shown by the astounding scientific developments that have taken place over the last four decades, to be inadequate. With post-Einsteinian physics, quantum mechanics, Heisenberg's uncertainity principle, C. G. Jung's inner cartography of the psyche and numerous other major developments, the whole picture of reality is changing. Matter dissolves into waves of energy, consciousness emerges not as an epiphenomenon of matter but perhaps as the primary principle behind manifestation. The new science seems to be approaching the ancient insights of seers and mystics from all the great traditions of humanity.
This conceptual revolution is having its impact in all spheres of human activity, and the quest for a holistic vision of life is beginning to assume importance in many fields. This is particularly noticeable in the areas of health and healing. because here the old dichotomy between body and mind was most strongly manifested and most clearly proved obsolete. Western medicine has tended to look upon the body as a sort of machine that can be treated in total isolation from the mind, but even before the major paradigm shifts, it was becoming clear that this mechanical approach was simply not working. This was especially apparent in areas where psychosomatic linkages were showing that the mind does have a major impact upon bodily functions. C. G. Jung was perhaps the first major figure in the West to grasp the deeper implications of the eastern thought for the study and practice of psychology. Subsequently, a whole host of thinkers have pursued this quest for a synthesis between eastern and western approaches.
