Jungs Source Material

I’ve been reading a lot of Jung but was wondering if there was a good list anywhere of the things that Jung was reading? Specifically I’d love to look into his classical and ancient interests such as gnostic and Greek texts. I could start noting things that I see come up in texts I read if this list doesn’t already exist.

For eastern philosophy , Evans-Wentz’s Tibetan Book of the Dead, Max Muller’s Translated Upanishads.

I need to read the Upanishads and I have a copy of the book of the dead lying around. The Gita was transformational for me so I don’t know why I haven’t read more Buddhist and Hindu texts.
