‘In the Karbala of his heart, it may happen that the powers of the carnal soul kill the intellect and the angelic companions who assist it, and uproot all traces of them from man’s heart. Then indeed there is accomplished in each one of us, word for word, the ta’wīl of the tragedy of Karbala.”  - Henry Corbin, (Temple and Contemplation, 46)  See the essay in Isma'ili Gnosis HERE.

James Hillman (b. 1926 - d. 2011) was a pioneering psychologist whose imaginative psychology has entered cultural history, affecting lives and minds in a wide range of fields. He is considered the originator of Archetypal Psychology. Along with Donald Cowan, Joanne Stroud, Robert Sardello, and Gail Thomas, he co-founded the Dallas Institute of Humanities and Culture in 1980.

During his lifetime, Hillman became an internationally recognized scholar of Jungian and Post-Jungian thinking, leaving us the legacy of his writings, and as the father of Archetypal Psychology, he is celebrated as one of the most radical critics and innovators of contemporary culture.
