Shadow on the Path

Everything, and everyone, typically has a shadow side - a collection of qualities that do not fit the conscious self image and are thus repressed. But our shadow selves have tremendous power in that they are part of who we are, and thus their acceptance is necessary for our own journey into wholeness. V.J. Fedorschak has lived in a spiritual community for twenty-five years and explored the dynamic of shadow issues personally, and in his therapeutic practice. In this book he examines what the shadow side is, what it's acceptance means to spiritual development and looks at several frameworks for exploring shadow issues.
