Summary/Abstract: Carl Jung, when analyzing the text of the Qur'an, interprets the image of Hadir (Hazar) as a symbol of supreme individuation or attainment of Solitude, and the cave as the place of sacral transformation. In the article, the life path of the hero - defender of the outcasts - Kyoroglu in Turkic ethno-cultural consciousness, is seen as the way to Solitude or individuation - the consistent integration of the archetypes Persona, Shadow, Anima/ Animus, the Great Mother (Old Woman), the Eternal Child / Younger and the Wise Old Man. The last archetype in different destans about Kyoroglu is embodied in the image of Hazar (Hadir) or Saint Ali.
