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-)

On Christmas Day: An Expanded View
“The story of Christ is not only an account of a historical man but also a figurative representation of the path that each of us must follow to attain liberation.”
–Richard Smoley (American Philosopher, Editor and Writer, 1956- )

Developing Fully
“There is no conflict between inner development and contributing to the larger good of humanity; in fact, an individual can develop fully only if he or she takes part in a larger work of this kind.”
–Richard Smoley (American Philosopher, Editor and Writer, 1956-)
