The two shores of Love: inner man & inner woman

Each of us, regardless of our gender, carries (usually incognito) two distinct personalities-one masculine and one feminine-which have their own energies and ways of thinking. In a natural state, the inner male and female are flowing in a rhythm where each complements and supports the other.

However, when one side of this dynamic becomes dominant, it can impose its preferred activities, projects, and priorities on the other. This domination can arise from good intentions based on love, or destructive intentions based on fear, but in either case it causes the opposite polarity to suffer, to lose its rightful opportunity to express itself and be creative. When this happens on the inside of ourselves, then our outer relationships will reflect the very same discomfort and tension.

This book shows, from many angles, how to offer both the inner man and inner woman a chance to follow their own natural flow of energy. When they have the strength to follow their own flows independently, they will be happy together. If they are happy together, the body sings. If they are in accord, the vibrance of the male and the serenity of the female can be brought to every activity. When they are in love, their melting gives us a feeling of shining, effervescent completeness.
