Renewal

Society can only be renewed by renewing individuals. And in order to do this we have to give individuals the opportunity to contact their own inner resources. As the psychotherapist Ira Progoff once observed:

We gradually discover that our life has been going somewhere, however blind we have been to its direction, and however unhelpful to it we ourselves have been.  We find that a connective thread has been forming beneath the surface of our lives, carrying the meaning that has been trying to establish itself in our existence. It is the inner continuity of our lives. As we recognise and identify with it, we see an inner myth that has been guiding our lives unknown to ourselves.

  1. Wonderful! Thank you, James. I needed to be reminded of this. It reminded me of the first time I walked a labyrinth. What a precious truth!
