 This talk will explore the psychological and spiritual value of embracing uncertainty.  We will examine the role of doubt in Jung’s personal journey and in Buddhism as a way to foster our own ability to entertain uncertainty with a playful yet religious attitude.  We will also discuss some case illustrations that show how wisdom can be hidden in both the patient’s and therapist’s uncertainty.=0D=0A=
 =0D=0A=
 Our objectives are threefold: to describe such Zen practices as cultivating the “Great Doubt” and “don’t-know-mind,” to describe Jung’s own relationship with Buddhism as a movement from uncertainty to deep appreciation, and to identify the powerful role of uncertainty in individuation.  =0D=0A=
