In "The Undiscovered Self," C.G. Jung emphasizes that true happiness and fulfillment come from within the individual rather than from external structures like the State. He argues that while society is formed through a collective agreement of individuals, it often imposes limitations that can hinder personal growth and autonomy.

Jung warns that the State, although a necessary social construct, can lead to a loss of individuality and self-expression. He suggests that achieving a meaningful and balanced life depends on fostering one's inner self, rather than relying on societal institutions that may stifle personal freedom and authenticity.
