Nature or nurture? James Hillman, Ph.D. -- author, lecturer, men's-movement leader -- says never mind. Rather, he theorizes a more spiritual element in mapping our individual destinies, likening our souls to acorns. What, is he nuts? No, just a Jungian scholar -- one of the few in history with a No. 1 best-seller. Still, if Jung had been on Oprah, who knows how far he might have gone? Random House insists Hillman was drawing ''huge crowds'' on his 15-city tour even before his Oct. 29 appearance. But the numbers speak for themselves. Pre-Oprah: 82,000 copies shipped. Post-Oprah: 302,500 copies. The Soul's Code is in its 14th printing. WEEKS FICTION ON LIST
