This book explores the psychological nature of forgiveness for both the subjective ego and what Jung called the objective psyche, or soul. Utilizing analytical, archetypal, and dialectical psychological approaches, the notion of forgiveness is traced from its archetypal and philosophical origins in Greek and Roman mythology through its birth and development in Judaic and Christian theology, to its modern functional character as self-help commodity, relationship remedy, and global necessity. Offering a deeper understanding of the concept of "true" forgiveness as a soul event, Sandoval reveals the transformative nature of forgiveness and the implications this notion has on the self and analytical psychology.

In the tradition of the Alchemist and Jonathon Livingston Seagull, Paulo and the Magician comes to us as an enchanting fable, though it hardly stops there. Ambitious and provocative, the story takes the reader through the meta-physical hoops of A Course In Miracles, weaving in the principles of its complicated psychology, leaving the reader with a full appreciation of this difficult revelatory text – all seen through the eyes of a frustrated young wood seller stuck in his medieval market place! Paulo's life abounds with the type of people who challenge us every day – an unscrupulous Mayor, a violent Blacksmith, thoroughly annoying clients – and it seems that things will never get better. But he alone knows that the fortress wall is not the end of the Domain, and one day he escapes into the mysterious land beyond. There he meets Zepharo, the magician, whose discussions drive Paulo quite crazy, but which lead the boy resolutely back along the path toward the Golden City, his true Home.

It addresses the most important thing you will ever learn. All the happiness, health, and abundance you experience in life comes from your ability to love and be loved. This ability is innate, not acquired. Robert Holden is the creator of a unique program on love called Loveability, which he teaches worldwide.

In Loveability, Robert weaves a beautiful mix of timeless principles and helpful practices about the nature of true love. With great intimacy and warmth, he shares stories, conversations, meditations, and poetry that have inspired him in his personal inquiry on love.

It is the key to loving others. • When you think something is missing in a relationship, it is probably you. • Forgiveness helps you to see that love has never hurt you; it is only your misperceptions of love that hurt. • The greatest influence you can have in any situation is to be the presence of love.

One day, as you're traveling down your life's road, you'll encounter your Creator. Chances are, you have already encountered Him, possibly many times, but did not realize it. Or maybe you did realize it and chose to turn the other way. But this time, He will get your attention. You will "hear" Him calling you. You will feel the cry of your soul in response. And you will recognize the pull of God-consciousness on your self-consciousness. What do you do? Since everybody is different, your encounter with the Creator will be orchestrated especially for you. But at the same time, everybody's life experiences will follow the same model. Encounter proposes that how you interpret your experiences in life determines to a large degree whether or not you will see God's model of the perfected man in yourself. Once you meet Him, God is easy to fall in love with. The hard part is being "remade" in His likeness. Encounter describes this "make-over," this transformation process, so you will be able to follow it in your own life. The author suggests new ways of considering and understanding past and current events, and explains the forces at work and play within the human psyche. To help you through this trying and sometimes painful process, the Creator has given you a two-edged Sword of Forgiveness and Faith to release you from guilt and fear, Gloves of Compassion and Gratitude to resolve painful memories, and a Plow of Wisdom and Discernment to uproot misconceptions and allow the seed of truth to take hold in your heart and mind. Encounter describes the function of each in detail and provides easy-to-follow instructions for their use. The Creator is the guiding force behind the transformation process. He created Universal Law to guide you and Divine Love to empower you. Your part is to love Him with all your heart and walk in His way. This means gradually relinquishing your Free Will and surrendering to God's Will... not an easy task for the only creature on Earth with the power to say No to God! Indeed, free will is powerful, but, as argued in Encounter, free will is not free: we pay dearly for it. Encounter introduces man's Lower Self and Higher Self, describes the beauty of Universal Law, talk's about man's God qualities, his childlike nature, his innocence, and his reason for being here. The book states that we can all have a one-on-one relationship with our Father God and reveals how you should react when you encounter your Creator. Expect some surprises along the way.

'Becoming: An Introduction to Jung's Concept of Individuation' explores the ideas of Carl Gustav Jung. His idea of a process called individuation has sustained Deldon Anne McNeely's dedication to a lifelong work of psychoanalysis, which unfortunately has been dismissed by the current trends in psychology and psychiatry. Psychotherapists know the value of Jung's approach through clinical results, that is, watching people enlarge their consciousness and change their attitudes and behavior, transforming their suffering into psychological well-being. However, psychology's fascination with behavioral techniques, made necessary by financial concerns and promoted by insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies, has changed the nature of psychotherapy and has attempted to dismiss the wisdom of Jung and other pioneers of the territory of the unconscious mind. For a combination of unfortunate circumstances, many of the younger generation, including college and medical students, are deprived of fully understanding their own minds. Those with a scientific bent are sometimes turned away from self-reflection by the suggestion that unconscious processes are metaphysical mumbo-jumbo. Superficial assessments of Jung have led to the incorrect conclusion that one must be a spiritual seeker, or religious, in order to follow Jung's ideas about personality. 'Becoming' is an offering to correct these misperceptions. Many university professors are not allowed to teach Jungian psychology. Secular humanism and positivism have shaped the academic worldview; therefore, investigation into the unknown or unfamiliar dimensions of human experience is not valued. But this attitude contrasts with the positive reputation Jung enjoys among therapists, artists of all types, and philosophers. Those without resistance to the unconscious because of their creativity, open-mindedness, or personal disposition are more likely to receive Jung's explorations without prejudice or ideological resistance. There is a lively conversation going on about Jung's ideas in journals and conferences among diverse groups of thinkers which does not reach mainstream psychology. 'Becoming' is for those whose minds are receptive to the unknown, and to help some of us to think-more with respect than dread-of the possibility that we act unconsciously.

Author Kathy Cordova was an overworked, stressed-out sales executive. After the birth of her first child, a colicky baby who went through a number of nannies, Cordova finally figured out the Universe was giving her a message--give it up. She quit her job to become a full-time mom. And as she adjusted to her new life, Cordova learned the power of miracles through the art of surrender. Part I of Let Go, Let Miracles Happen shows readers that surrender is much more powerful--and effective--than constant striving, or toughing it out at all costs. Based on wisdom drawn from the Bible and contemporary books such as A Course in Miracles, Cordova tells how she discovered and came to accept surrendering her own life. She guides readers to experience how surrender can actually make them stronger. Hard to believe in our go-go culture, but literally doing nothing, and fully and deeply accepting circumstances, is often a wiser course of "action." The power of waiting, while accepting and surrendering, produces miracles. "The good news is miracles," Cordova writes. "Instead of working so hard to find or create magic in our lives, we can relax, go with the flow, work together in harmony with a greater power than ourselves, and experience more joy and purpose than we ever imagined. And the formula is simple--love and surrender." Part II of Let Go, Let Miracles Happen is an inspirational collection of stories from people who have suffered everything from addictions to terminal diseases, profound disappointments to perpetual disillusionment, and triumphed. Cordova shows that what they all have in common is that when they learned to surrender, let go, accept and wait, miracles happened.
