I had to abandon the idea of the superordinate position of the ego. … I saw that everything, all paths I had been following, all steps I had taken, were leading back to a single point — namely, to the mid-point. It became increasingly plain to me that the mandala is the centre. It is the exponent of all paths. It is the path to the centre, to individuation.
\n… I knew that in finding the mandala as an expression of the self I had attained what was for me the ultimate. – C. G. Jung.<\/p>\n

The “squaring of the circle” is one of the many archetypal motifs
\nwhich form the basic patterns of our dreams and fantasies. But it
\nis distinguished by the fact that it is one of the most important
\nof them from the functional point of view. Indeed, it could even
\nbe called the archetype of wholeness.<\/p>\n
