    Decades later, Jung came across a reference to the motif of cannibalism in the symbolism of the Mass. And only then did the image of the “man-eater” make sense to him.

    The “perfect Persona” can lead to a one-sided, rigid and alienated personality.

    You’re afraid of dropping the mask and finding nothing real behind it.
    Neurosis can arise from “wrong answers to life”, from empty success and confinement within too narrow a spiritual horizon. Neurosis generally disappears by developing into a more spacious personality.
