Michael Eigen

4.9/5 (16295 ratings)

Description:Freud wrote that the greatest problem facing humanity is its destructive urge. There are many approaches to working with, channeling, controlling, taming, modulating, transcending-subtending, using the aggressive force that has played an important role in survival and evolution. All our tendencies have come in handy in one or another moment. Issues of becoming human have been noted since antiquity. Biblical prophets spoke of a circumcision of the heart, turning a heart of stone to heart of flesh. He without sin among you cast the first stone. God is love. Love and do as you will. And yet destruction continues. Near the end of their lives Moses and Freud wondered which will win, goodness or destructiveness? If we are part of a universe that began with an explosion, it is not far-fetched, to imagine we, too, are partly explosive.There is no one factor that solves the issue. We live in a universe with many moods, tendencies, forces, coloration. Moments of peace and war seem part of the makeup of physical, biological, spiritual processes. There are many kinds of tensions between dimensions, tendencies, and states.This book explores the work of tendencies that make us up and capacities that try to meet them. The shock of ourselves is perennial. We are challenged by our own aliveness. It challenges us to open doors as yet unknown. We are not done evolving, growing, learning, feeling, caring. Growth of capacity to tolerate and work with experience is part of our evolutionary challenge.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
