Do you think that life happens to you from the outside in? Think again Robertson says we are born as complex repositories of memories and behaviors. We learn some things by rote, but other parts of ourselves -- the important things we know in our inner soul before we "know" them in our conscious mind -- are waiting to have various "triggers" release them from the silence. Dreams give us a peek at this process. Robertson examines the inner world through dreams, and the development of inner personalities through synchronistic events we experience, using divinatory tools like the I Ching, and working with the chakras and meditation. He combines his scientific mind, Jungian background, love of mathematics, and thirst for discovering the world in this exciting new book Written for general readers, Mining the Soul will become the new classic for intelligent people who want to explore the "why?" of life.
