Self-actualization and individuation

This article aims at relating Maslow's idea of self-actualization to the Jungian idea of individuation. It turns out that self-actualization is quite a definite and achievable level of consciousness, within reach of all of us. Individuation, on the other hand, is only vaguely stated, and it seems quite doubtful as to whether it is achievable at all. This article provides many references (see Further Relevant Readings section), enabling further corroboration of the arguments presented.
