There is another world that is outside the vision of our ego-minds; It is the realm of psyche, the realm of unconscious. It is there that our souls and our spirits live, for unknown to our conscious Western minds, our souls and spirits are psychological realities, and they live on in our psyches without our knowledge. And it is there, in the unconscious, that God lives, whoever God may be for us as individuals. Everything that resides on the other side, in the realm of the unconscious, appears to the ego as being outside the natural human realm; thus it is magical, it is supernatural. To the ego the experience of that other world is no different from religious experience; the religious urge, the aspiration, means a seeking after the totality of one's life, the totality of self, that which lives outside the ego's world in the unconscious in the unseen vastness of psyche and symbol.
