Carl Jung’s Epitaph

From Jung: A Biography by Gerhard Wehr, p. 457:

Appearing on the side borders of his tombstone is this passage:

"The first man is of the earth and is earthly, the second man is of heaven and is heavenly." - 1st Corinthians 15:47

Appearing on the top and bottom borders of his tombstone is this passage:

"Called or not called, the god will be there."

Note: These are the English translations. His tombstone actually has these passages in Latin (Primus homo de terra terrenus, Secundus homo de caelo caelestis ; Vocatus atque non vocatus deus aderit).
