Part 3/12:
During his youth, Jung not only dealt with surreal visions but also encountered bizarre incidents. He once heard a loud noise akin to a gunshot and later found a solid table broken in half. Shortly thereafter, he saw a knife break in a cupboard without any plausible explanation. These events guided Jung toward a career in psychiatry, where he sought to interpret such phenomena systematically. His interest in the occult and parapsychology—coupled with personal experiences—culminated in his 1902 dissertation on the psychology of supposedly occult phenomena.
