Integrating the Psyche

“Mastering – or, if you prefer, integrating – the psyche is the work of a lifetime….This mastery is not holding the psyche in rigid subjugation which is impossible in any case, nor is it a matter of having a maniacally religious ego lording it over the emotions and the body. Rather, it is being centered in the still, small voice that is the true ‘I’ of the spirit.”

–Richard Smoley (American Philosopher, Editor and Writer, 1956-)
