PART ONE
CIVILIZATION'S DISCONTENTS

UNIT ONE -- THE CREATURE-SELF
Each human life is an uneasy joining of selfish mammalian traits from our primordial past and generous self-aware virtues through which our combative species lives reasonably well together. These dissimilar elements are often in conflict within the soul and generally in opposition to many cultural requirements. The reader will learn how we humans combine emotional and spiritual traits with more or less success.

UNIT TWO -- NARCISSISTIC FANTASIES
Each person automatically assumes him-self or herself to be at center-stage of life's drama. We all see I - MYSELF-ALONE, as the key player to whom all others should defer, although while growing up with other narcissists, most persons learn to deny this selfishness. The reader will learn how our narcissistic yearnings for possessions, power, prestige and pleasure create enormous personal and social problems -- up to and including the devastating 20th century wars and cold wars.

UNIT THREE -- THE WORM IN THE APPLE
Each of us is given this marvelous gift of life - a big red apple for our pleasure. Unfortunately, the gift has a worm at the core -- the tragic quartet of guilt, rage suffering and especially death - and with the four, the death-dread that nags at each person, creating such pain that we repress it in order to find a bit of enjoyment from life. The reader will learn how our genetic death-dread, our unconscious fear of annihilation, complicates almost every human attitude, activity and relationship.

UNIT FOUR -- WORKING OUT YOUR OWN SALVATION
We can help one another live meaningful lives by being supportive, but in the last analysis, each person has to make the crucial decisions that lead either toward psychospiritual wholeness or to fragmentation. Unfortunately, each society conspires with its myths and self-deceptions to conceal the nature of pain, healing and health. The reader will learn how to better take personal responsibility for deliverance, in much the same manner as an addict making healing choices.

PART TWO
THE WAY WE ARE

UNIT FIVE -- AN EXISTENTIAL APPROACH
The early psychologists like Freud, Kierkegaard and Adler had many brilliant insights. Eventually we learned much more that can help women and men make life satisfying consistently. The reader will learn how to apply psychotherapeutic concepts in ways that have enough power to deliver souls from captivity. Of course, everything we think and do takes shape within our brain, our incredible living computer atop our shoulders.

UNIT SIX -- DANGEROUS DEPENDENCY
Maturing personal love, whether eros, filias or agape, casts out fear and much frustration and consistently empowers us to live a life of trust in God. The reader will learn that remaining faithful to God, to others and to yourself, keeps life from reverting to the fearful and banal.

UNIT SEVEN -- SEEKING A NEW REALITY
Humans are all subjective to the core, living their lives with the illusions that make our suffering, rage, guilt and death easier to tolerate but also causing many serious problems over the long run. The reader will learn that others are not necessarily lying as they see things from a self-serving position, but everything important must be understood to come through our personal subjectivity. Even if we cannot change our environment, we can always shift our attitudes and expectations to something better.

UNIT EIGHT -- SOLVING THE EXISTENTIAL DILEMMA
Each person must accept the hidden paradox within, come to grips with the creature-self that combines both emotional and spiritual traits which remain in conflict much of the time. The reader will learn that the orthodox quest, the sexual quest and the service quest cannot over the long run deliver one from the shackles forged by our attempts to avoid pain and to fill our lives with esteem. Only the self-transcendent quest resolves our problems.

PART THREE
GETTING IT RIGHT

UNIT NINE -- PSYCHOLOGY AND FREEDOM
A common mistake made by many persons is to assume that psychology and religion are incompatible. Actually they are sisters under the skin for they both well up out of the same human needs. The reader will learn how to avoid either/or choices, to understand how the roots of psychotherapy and worship are woven together within each human soul.

UNIT TEN -- PROBLEMS IN EMOTIONAL ILLNESS
Because we have many neurotic pressures in our complex and threatening world, there are several major forms of mental illness. Each one comes from a failure of courage that causes the sufferer to miss the meaning of his or her life. The reader will learn to better manage the problems found in schizophrenia, depression, sexual distortions and several other forms of emotional illness.

UNIT ELEVEN -- IN SEARCH OF EMOTIONAL HEALTH
We all hate to surrender some key yearnings of our precious souls in order to connect supportively with others. We all ache for the assurance of a conscious continuance of the soul that makes death less painful. The reader will learn how we can mature beyond prestige, pleasure, power and possessions through faith, hope and love shared with supportive souls we love.

PART FOUR
OUT INTO THE BEYOND

UNIT TWELVE -- HEALING FOR THE SOUL
We all want to make our satisfying activities and relationships last as long as possible. To do this we must mature psycho- spiritually, selecting key choices and relationships to which we commit ourselves. The reader will learn that the effort spent in living wisely seldom frustrates us but leads to more and more rewarding relationships and activities.

UNIT THIRTEEN -- SELF-TRANSCENDENT SURVIVAL
Because our homosapien anxieties and the pressures of a secular society are often too great to manage, along with our fear of life and dread of death, we all need spiritually sound ways to prosper. The reader will learn the more excellent way found in God from whom every good aspect of existence flows.

UNIT FOURTEEN -- LIFE AND LIBERATION
When we consciously connect with God through grace and faith, our belief system leads to greater and greater love which keeps life rewarding and deeply satisfying. The reader will learn how to deal with the tragic elements of life through a system of spiritual values, positive attitudes, high expectations, mature beliefs and responsible choices that can improve any set of circumstances.

CONCLUSION
Lasting satisfaction through psychospiritual health occurs when we live at peace with the creature-self within and with the frustrating world without. This occurs only as we mature spiritually and transcend narcissism, when we civilize our egos and develop a trust in God that creates within our souls the life enhancing elements of a covenant faith.
