THE FUSE

In an ideal psychological atmosphere, our parents and others are models of sane, healthy behavior. Spiritually, they help us form appropriate values and act with integrity. They imbue us with a sense of neighborliness toward others. They foster a beneficent worldview. We come to see ourselves as important participants in the vast evolutionary project of stewardship for this so often imperiled earth. We then feel called to be blissful saints. Thus, psychological development, a spiritual journey, and a saintly style can happen in us simultaneously.
