"A Jungian therapist's lectures concerning an analysand struck down by terminal brain cancer, this wonderful book examines how the psyche faces death, how one can live up to (and past) the moment of death, and integrate all aspects of the experience, including the terror, rage, grief, while at the same time discerning something rising to meet us from the 'other side.' Fascinating. "
This book promotes a strong argument for a feminine approach to religious discovery: to struggle in the ambiguous gap between the wisdom of the psyche and the wisdom of scripture, between our interior experience of God and the exterior reality of God.
This work speaks at the centrality of imagination in the life of the spirit. The authors describe the imagination as a bridge between the psyche and the spirit. Using rich imagery drawn from literature, film, and their own experience as therapists, they unlock for us the healing power of our imagination.
An incredible book that opens windows onto new depths in understanding women, men, and the human condition overall. It reaffirms the joy of life, not superficially, but in all life's colors, from darkest to brightest and in between. A refreshingly mature view of "good and evil".
