This article addresses the question of whether the soul has substantial reality from the perspective of Jungian psychology and contemporary physics. It is a response to Daniel Anderson’s article, “The Soul’s Logical Life and Jungian Schisms.” Where psychology and physics have progressed the farthest into the unknown dimensions of psyche and matter, they have both conjectured that there is a symbol in the truth of things. I explore this idea as it appears in Romanticism, Jungian psychology, and physics, particularly in Jung’s correspondence with Wolfgang Pauli. My conclusion is that the unconscious psyche is not exclusively methodological but also has substantial reality identical to the unknown dimension of the microphysical world. Both the unknown dimensions of psyche and matter are visible and comprehensible to us only through symbols. The first-ever direct observation of the wave function of a hydrogen atom in 2013 is used as an example.

On the one hand, we have the living impression of pneumatic Christendom, that is, the Christian world view, while on the other hand, we have scientific materialism. And that is the well-known conflict between faith and knowledge which we are in. And now the question here is what is the unconscious doing now?

本文从荣格心理学和当代物理学的角度探讨灵魂是否具有实质实在性的问题。这是对丹尼尔·安德森的文章“灵魂的逻辑生活和荣格分裂”的回应。在心理学和物理学已经深入到精神和物质的未知维度的地方，他们都推测事物的真相中存在一个象征。我探索了这个在浪漫主义、荣格心理学和物理学中出现的想法，特别是在荣格与沃尔夫冈泡利的通信中。我的结论是，无意识的心灵不仅是方法论的，而且具有与微观物理世界的未知维度相同的实质现实。只有通过符号，我们才能看到和理解精神和物质的未知维度。

一方面，我们有活生生的基督教世界观，即基督教世界观；另一方面，我们有科学唯物主义。这就是众所周知的信仰与知识之间的冲突，我们正处于其中。现在的问题是无意识现在在做什么？（荣格，引自 Schweizer & Schweizer-Vüllers，2016 Schweizer, A.和Schweizer-Vüllers, R.（2016 年）。一石一石：对CG Jung心理的反思。大门出版社。 [谷歌学术]，第。179)
