Pierre Grison’s article deals with the Taoist spiritual text of the Golden Flower (T'ai-yi kin-hua tsong-che). Grison devotes his article in part to reclaiming the text from its famous commentary by physiatrist Carl Jung; detailing the erroneous conclusions that come from a person who is not a legitimate authority on spiritual matters dissecting a profound religion text. “A Taoist text, probably of late but ambiguous date, together with a commentary of the XVIIIth century whereof the tendencies, when all's said and done, do not always coincide exactly with those of the text thus commented upon.” He continues, giving his own explanation and interpretation of the text, supplying comparisons where valid, and contrasting his deciphering of the text with that of Jung’s.
