Synopsis

More and more of us seem less convinced that violent conflicts on any level of life provide us with life-giving solutions. This is true of conflicts within us, with people in our daily lives, among larger groups, and between nations. Nonviolence, the creative and preferred alternative to violence, provides possibilities for cultivating peacemaking toward sustainable reconciliation and more life-giving and humane resolutions.

The central question is:

What must I do to sustain a nonviolent way of life?

In a psycho-spiritual framework influenced by the psychology of Carl Jung, readers engage in a wide- ranging reflection including to recall our personal legacies, to consider life as a Great Dialogue, to explore the experience of the Shadow, to envision wholeness rather than perfection, to reflect again on communities, diversity and inclusivity, to address the need for responsible self-care, and to consider the personal principles and practices that will sustain a nonviolent way of life.
