In this series of brilliant essays, Jacob Needleman uncovers the heart of religion, psychiatry, philosophy, culture, science, and medicine in the forgotten life of the soul. He sees these contemporary disciplines without deep roots in the contemplative life and calls his readers to reestablish these roots.'Much in our world, much in our modern way of living, is at the end of its tether.' says Needleman. 'Not only philosophy, but medicine, religion, and technology have reached a profound impasse, where motion accelerates but without direction. Almost every human endeavor, every pattern and form of life, seems to have broken from its moorings. And every one of us is riding in one of these rapidly accelerating vessels looking for a way, a direction, and a means of guiding it and ourselves.'Dealing with such themes as Eastern and Western spirituality, existentialism, spiritual traditions in our contemporary materialistic culture, disease and meaning, the loss of wholeness, being as a mystery, Needleman encourages every human being to begin 'the long and difficult work of awakening to himself.'Introduction * Why Philosophy is Easy * Man's Nature and Natural Man * Notes on Religion * The Used Religions * Psychiatry and the Sacred * The Two Sciences of Medicine * Magic, Sacrifice, and Tradition * The Art of Living in the Cultural Revolution * The Search for a Wise Man * Gurdjieff, Ouspensky, and Esoteric Philosophy
