Unlocking Spiritual Depth: Father Bill W. on Symbols in Recovery

Since the decline of religion, we have had no adequate collective container for the introverted subjective life. And the soul, Jung says, speaks to us through symbols. It's the part that comes alive but can't be studied nearly as much as the left brain can the cognitive part.
Imagine a life where symbols and deeper meanings bring energy and excitement to your recovery journey. In this episode, Father Bill W., an Episcopal priest with decades of sobriety, delves into the fascinating world of the symbolic life. Drawing from Edward Edinger’s book 'Ego and Archetype' and the ancient gnostic poem 'The Hymn of the Pearl', Father Bill explores how symbols differ from signs and why this distinction is crucial for those in 12-Step Fellowships.
He believes that modern life often feels empty because it lacks a connection to the inner world of the psyche. By reconnecting with this symbolic life, we can find a sense of meaning and purpose that fuels our recovery journey. This episode isn't just about theory; it's a practical guide to incorporating these ideas into your daily life.
Whether you're new to recovery or have been on this path for years, Father Bill's insights offer a fresh perspective on spirituality and sobriety. Tune in for an enriching discussion that could transform your understanding of the spiritual journey in recovery.
