Author: Nigel Wellings , Elizabeth Wilde McCormick Title: Nothing to Lose
Description: A&C Black, 2005. Paperback. Pp: 223. For all those immersed in the traditions of Christian contemplation there is new understanding derived from the study of Buddhist traditions and the classical schools of psychotherapy. While both Freud and Jung, each in their own way, describe for us a means to expand the boundaries of the personal self, Buddhism challenges the very existence of this self, suggesting that it is the belief in its concrete existence that is at root the cause of all suffering. How then may these two radically different views find a place of meeting? The process involves "emptying out" as expounded by the great Christian mystics-"St. John of the Cross, Eckhart, Julian of Norwich-"and in the process the individual may be helped to cope with the stresses and pitfalls of modern living-"neurotic anxiety, depression, and narcissism.
