I'm Sorry, But I Can't Make A

I Consider Otto Rank To Be One Of The Great Spiritual Giants Of The Twentieth Century, A Genius As A Psychologist And A Saint As A Human Being. Though Vilified By His Original Community Of Freudians, He Never Became Bitter. He Died A Feminist And Deeply Committed To Social Justice, In 1939....his Deep Understanding Of Creativity Makes Him A Mentor For All Of Us Living In A Postmodern World....i Believe That Art And Artist, Especially Chapters 12 To 14, May Well Emerge As The Most Valuable Psychoanalysis Of The Spiritual Life In Our Time.

The Prophets Preach . . . That Pleasure, Not Will-power And Coercion, Is How You Most Deeply Transform People.

When It Comes To Wilderness Animals We Have To Make An Effort To Preserve What Areas We Can That They Can Be Themselves In. Its Come To A Point Though, Clearly, Where Some Species Have To Be Cared For By Humans If They Are Not Going To Disappear Altogether.

Healthy Mysticism Praises Acts Of Letting Go, Of Being Emptied, Of Getting In Touch With The Space Inside And Expanding This Until It Merges With The Space Outside. Space Meeting Space; Empty Pouring Into Empty. Births Happen From That Encounter With Emptiness, Nothingness. . . . Let Us Not Fight Emptiness And Nothingness, But Allow It To Penetrate Us Even As We Penetrate It.

Big-heartednes S Is The Most Essential Virtue On The Spiritual Journey.
