He offers a way to understand them psychologically, examining the persistence of the past in influencing our present, conscious lives and noting that engagement with mystery is what life asks of each of us. From such engagements, a deeper, more thoughtful, more considered life may come.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJames Hollis, PhD, is a co-founder of the C. G.
