1. Facing The Dragon
Confronting Personal and Cultural Shadow
Using the dragon as a central metaphor, the book examines how personal and spiritual grandiosity — ego inflation, narcissism, and spiritualized arrogance — derail psychological and moral development; drawing on Jungian archetypes, myth, and clinical examples, it distinguishes authentic inner strength from destructive pride and spiritual bypassing. It explores how leaders and seekers become seduced by power and righteousness, analyzes the psychological dynamics that produce shadow behaviors, and offers practical therapeutic insights and exercises for confronting and integrating these forces. The result is a guide to transforming arrogance into humility, responsibility, and an integrated, mature psyche.
