Description	0345367227 From Library Journal "Welcome . . . to an avalanche of the psychospiritual dimension" invites physician-turned-New Age guru Joy (author of Joy's Way, LJ 4/15/79). Drawing on personal as well as professional experiences as a leader of personal growth workshops, Joy presents a program of guided ritual, meditation, and dream analysis for discovering "some of the non-ego-enhancing aspects of the Unconscious." Why undertake this painful, arduous, dangerous (Joy admits) journey? In order, he explains, to "incarnate one's full inner strength and engage the mystery of Life more powerfully." Welcome to the post-New Age! It's not for everyone!-- Marcia G. Fuchs, Guilford Free Lib., Ct.
