Drawing on a rich variety of psychoanalytic, Jungian, and existential-phenomenological sources and on both Western and Asian spiritual texts, Embodied Spirituality in a Sacred World provides a theoretical foundation for the idea that human development follows a spiral path. Washburn shows that ego development early in life requires us to turn our backs on original sources of our existence and, therefore, that spiritual development later in life requires us to spiral back to these sources on the way to whole-psyche integration. He elucidates the underlying causes and pivotal events that set development on its spiral course and traces six major dimensions of experience as they unfold along the spiral path: the unconscious, the energy system, the ego system, the perceived other, the experiential body, and the life-world. In providing a theoretical foundation for the idea of the spiral path, Washburn defends the idea against its critics and helps explain why the idea has been compelling to so many people in diverse traditions. 606 $aTranspersonal psychology 606 $aDevelopmental psychology 606 $aPsychology, Religious 615 0$aTranspersonal psychology. 615 0$aDevelopmental psychology. 615 0$aPsychology, Religious. 676 $a150.19/8 700 $aWashburn$b Michael$f1943-$01806990 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910955942703321 996 $aEmbodied spirituality in a sacred world$94356440 997 $aUNINA
