Each a monastery
In addition to the spirit of this time, there is another spirit at work-- that which rules the depths of everything contemporary. The spirit of the depths robbed me of everything that was not in his service, namely the melting together of sense and nonsense, which produces the supreme Meaning-- the God yet to come.
The spirit of the depths said, "You should carry the monastery in yourself. The desert is within you. The desert calls you and draws you back... within us is the way, the truth and the life. May each one seek out his own way... The way leads to mutual love in community."
from The Red Book by Carl Jung, p. 232

How appropriate!
I find the timing of The Red Book to be very synchronistic... this is a Carl Jung the world does not yet know, but must now be ready for? the many streams continue to join together...
