Book Description
In order to conduct a well-grounded search for meaning, this book wants to renew the ancient attempt to seek wisdom in everyday life, training ourselves to modify our own perceptions of the world in as authentic a manner as possible. This path places analysis, philosophical practices and religion side by side as three ways of searching for meaning into a common coordinated field of action with a common background: we urge to go beyond the self to save the self through a wider and more all-embracing dimension of meaning. We think to recognize, as different articulations of the same thing, three interconnected but distinct practices: philosophycally-oriented biographical analysis - autobiographical and mythobiographical -, formative practices based on philosophy as a way of life, secular spiritual accompaniment. These essays collected in this volume should be read as partial approximations of the same content.

Into the Maelstrom
Author: Gordon Cappelletty
Publisher: Austin Macauley Publishers
ISBN: 1649795734
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
From the crisis of birth to the crisis of death, each person’s life is defined by the crises experienced and the ways in which the resulting chaos is resolved. As universally experienced events, our personal identities are influenced by the past crises that mold and shape our view of ourselves and our relationships with others. Chaos, as the inevitable result of the crisis state, allows us to see our lives in new and unique ways unbounded by our past limitations. While some individuals exit the maelstrom of a crisis with apparent ease, other individuals seem to live in the chaos of perpetual crisis never fully exiting the whirlpool of emotions and never fully experiencing the calm after the multiple storms that seem to continually confront them. Written jointly by a clinical psychologist (Cappelletty) and an ethical philosopher (Màdera), this book will help both the individuals facing a crisis as well as those who wish to help them resolve the crisis and move forward. Based on psychological, medical and philosophical research and practice, this examination of crisis and chaos will help the suffering person in love and life.

Moral Injury and Beyond
Author: Renos K. Papadopoulos
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351862464
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
Moral Injury and Beyond: Understanding Human Anguish and Healing Traumatic Wounds uniquely brings together a prominent collection of international contributors from the fields of psychiatry, psychology, philosophy, theology, military chaplaincy and acute crisis care to address the phenomenon of moral injury. Introduced in the 1990s to refer to a type of psychological trauma, experienced especially by soldiers who felt that their actions transgressed the expected moral norms, this innovative volume provides a timely update that progresses and redefines the field of moral injury. The ten ground-breaking essays expand our understanding of moral injury beyond its original military context, arguing that it can fruitfully be applied to and address predicaments most persons face in their daily lives. Approaching moral injury from different perspectives, the contributors focus on the experiences of combat veterans and other survivors of violent forms of adversity. The chapters address thought-provoking questions and topics, such as how survivors can regain their hope and faith, and how they can, in time, explore ways that will lead them to grow through their suffering. Exploring moral injury with a particular emphasis on spirituality, the early Church Fathers form the framework within which several chapters examine moral injury, articulating a new perspective on this important subject. The insights advanced are not limited to theoretical innovations but also include practical methods of dealing with the effects of moral injury. This pioneering collection will be essential resource for mental health practitioners and trainees working with people suffering from severe trauma. Due to its interdisciplinary nature, it will be useful not only to those academics and professionals engaged with moral injury but will be a source of inspiration for any perceptive student of the complexities and dilemmas of modern life, especially as it interfaces with issues of mental health and spirituality. It will also be invaluable to academics and students of Jungian psychology, theology, philosophy and history interested in war, migration and the impact of extreme forms of adversity.

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 299

Since the late 19th century, when the “new science” of psychology and interest in esoteric and occult phenomena converged – leading to the “discovery” of the unconscious – the dual disciplines of depth psychology and mysticism have been wed in an often unholy union.
