Transforming Compulsion
February 23, 2013 @ 10:00 am - 3:00 pm PST
The workshop was a deeper exploration of the elements discussed in the lecture.
…Wherever we are still attached, we are still possessed; and when we are possessed, there is one stronger than us who possesses us…. It is not a matter of indifference whether one calls something a ‘mania’ or a ‘god.’ To serve a mania is detestable and undignified, but to serve a god is full of meaning and promise …. (C.G. Jung, CW 13, § 55.)
