A guide to negotiating romantic relationships by an acclaimed psychoanalyst who draws upon Indian mythology and spirituality.Each time the spell of falling in love is cast, a series of archetypal behaviour patterns are set into motion. The beloved becomes the epicentre of life. However, this blissful state most often gradually turns into disillusionment as external pressures become more demanding and ego battles strain relationships. Separation is the most common solution in the West and increasingly more so in the East. Transpersonal psychology examines the Self beyond the Ego, recognising spiritual growth as an important dimension of individual development.Taking the reader through the entire journey of love with its tumultuous ups and downs, Rashna Imhasly-Gandhy, a Jungian analyst and transpersonal psychologist whose work bridges Eastern wisdom and Western depth psychology, helps us understand our psyche, examine our expectations? conscious and subconscious, and then reveals what actual loving is all about. Using the Radha-Krishna, Shiva-Shakti myths, she paves a practical path towards solving marital crises, activating inner healing and sustaining love.
