Datura, originally a natural flower, does have mysterious colors and magical legends.
Mamdala's original Sanskrit meaning is "essential achievement". It can be seen that even if self, karma and harmony are achieved, the image of Datura is related to Jung's analytical psychology.
Jung said: "Only after the incident did I gradually discover what a real mandala is:' the eternal creation of a shaped, deformed and eternal mind.' And this is the self, that is, the integrity of personality. "
Jung said that this is "self" (that is, the integrity of personality), and Jung's self is also a symbol of the soul, which can be called "the heart of the soul" or "the mirror/environment of the soul". The natural and mysterious "Datura" brings Jung a natural and sacred "self-nature", which can only be achieved by the mind and is also the key to psychoanalytic healing in deep treatment. Jung's mandala painting is supported by his active imagination and expanding technology; The two complement each other and go hand in hand. Together, they constitute a unique chapter in analytical psychology and analytical psychotherapy.
The author has a unique interpretation and development of the original meaning of Datura, its Buddhist tradition and connotation, Jung's theory of self and analytical psychology, as well as the structure and way of Datura painting. What is even more rare is the rich and vivid case study part of the book, the visitors' creative Datura paintings and the actual clinical healing process. It is an important contribution of Dr. Chen Canrui and his works to take Datura painting as a method of psychotherapy, and to analyze its structure and standardize its operation.
The so-called image of Datura is not only an external form, but also the prototype of Datura in our hearts. In our real life, it has its own natural expression. As the saying goes, handy, complacent, forgetful.
The heart is natural, just as nature is natural; The mind is also full of magic, just like the mystery of nature. From nature, we can get the nature of freedom, or "self-nature", from which we can play the role of self-healing and transformation of the soul and feel the spiritual realm of understanding nature and harmonious coexistence between man and nature. Therefore, Nature and Magic: Self-nature and Healing in Datura Images is the preface of Mirror of Mind: Datura Painting Therapy.
