Necrologocentrism

[s~Z]

"The heavy-handed pedagogic approach that attempts to fit irrational
phenomena into a preconceived rational pattern is anathema to me. Indeed,
such things [e.g., the answer to a question posed to the oracle by tossing
coins or sorting stalks] should remain as they were when they first emerged
to view, for only then do we know what nature does when left to herself
undisturbed by the meddlesomeness of man. One ought not to go to cadavers to
study life."

      -- G.G. Jung in foreward to Wilhelm/Baynes I Ching (p. xxix)
