Lives In Spirit Explores The Dynamic Conflicts That Both Energized And Distorted The Spiritual Development Of Key Precursor Figures Of A Contemporary Secular Or This-worldly Mysticism. With Its Historical Roots In The Early Gnostics And Plotinus, This Characteristically Western Spirituality Re-emerges With The Secularization And Loss Of Traditional Religious Belief Of Modernity. The Lives, Works, And Direct Experiences Of Nietzsche, Emerson, Thoreau, Jung, Heidegger, Gurdjieff, Crowley, And Contemporary Feminist Mysticism Are Considered In Terms Of Transpersonal Psychology (almaas), The Sociology Of Mysticism (weber And Troeltsch), And Contemporary Psychoanalysis (winnicott, Bion, Kohut).
