Synopsis

Many people yearn for deeper truth and seek not the idea but the experience of spirit. If you are one of these people in this book you will find a map for your quest. Through creation myths and the mystical traditions of alchemy and Sufism the authors explore the emergence of a new spiritual paradigm in which the divine seeks wholeness through and with us. They show how this is achieved through using Jung's technique of active imagination work with a being that seems to exist independently in the realm beyond the psyche or in what the authors term the psychoid. This being the ally challenges and yet gives us total support on the way to individuation. Jeffrey Raff explores the ally's parallels in mystical traditions such as Sufism and alchemy as well as how the ally differs from angelic beings. Linda Bonnington Vocatura presents an exciting view of various creation myths revealing that salvation exists beyond the vault of heaven for God and human alike. HEALING THE WOUNDED GOD shows us how to contact and consciously enter into a relationship with the ally through our dreams and by employing what C.G. Jung termed active imagination. When we work with the ally to transform ourselves the divine transforms as well all three elements co-creating a whole being.
