THE STRUGGLE FOR PSYCHOLOGICAL AND
SPIRITUAL GROWTH
 We are being attacked by
the chaos of corona virus (COVID-19), natural disasters, terrorism, violence, hateful protest,
social rudeness and vulgarity, and moral decay. Trauma is inflictind its claws on us
everywhere.
Viruses, terrorism, social
violence, and man-made and natural disasters are overwhelming our societies, and neither
our governments nor our mental health systems really understand what is looming in front of
us. This book addresses the psychological and spiritual components of trauma that
are critical to coping with unexpected and shocking reality.
An event is traumatic because it disrupts your previously secure sense
of self. Consider that wild animals live with a constant, sharp awareness of perpetual
danger, yet most people live with a naive—and deceptive—sense of safety and security to the
point of denying their basic vulnerability and fragmented sense of self. So when something
disastrous happens, the psychological damage from the shattering of your illusions
about life and identity may be more problematic than any physical damage. But psychological
and spiritual growth can arise from trauma.
