Abstract: (School of Literal Arts, Shanghai University, Shanghai 200444, China)Abstract： According to Jung's preconscious psyche, the seventh (Manas), the eighth (Alaya), the Seeds, and the prior six consciousnesses in the theory of consciousnessonly (Vijānamātra), all belong to the unconscious. Jung's psyche unconsciousness, which becomes the cause of an abnormal personality, is mostly not related to the conscious. The conscious in Vijānamātra is the actuality of Seeds, while the seeds of attachments to egocentrism and dharma in the seventh consciousness and the eighth consciousness decide the contaminated nature and the worldling nature of the sentient beings. The critical difference of the two theories lies in Jung's psyche realism in which myth and religion are the product of mental activities of unconscious archetypes, and Vijānamātra's actuality in which both cycle of rebirth (Samsara) and liberation (Mukta) can be realized. From the viewpoint of Vijānamātra, Jung's theory is hypothesis including the archetypes and own ego, and its aim of curing abnormal personality is valuable, but hard to realize.
