How awake are we to our inner being, our true nature? How
much self-knowledge do we really have?
In relation to our intrinsic self, we can easily feel like a novice. In
truth, we face a long journey before we can fully understand
ourselves – and we are equally unpractised in relating to our
‘shadow’ and inner wounds.
The path described in this book is an inward one, concerned
with strengthening our individuality. Based on life-long
research, Karsten Massei has created a valuable workbook for
knowing and healing ourselves. In a series of short chapters, he
explains the interplay and tensions between the human
individual and the nature of our ‘inner and cosmic child’. Both
are complex entities but are directly related; both are deeply
connected with our destiny.
Our experiences with our inner child are often still in the
earliest stages – but cultivating a relationship with her, noticing her,
holding conversations with her, is vital, and offers us ever deepening
experiences. As our insights expand, our frailties, deficiencies and
inner wounds become apparent. The being of the inner child wants to
educate us to become inwardly truthful and authentic. Only honest
engagement with the traumas and vulnerabilities of our soul will
enable a true picture of ourselves to arise.
Child of the Cosmos contains surprising perspectives arising from the
author’s personal experiences, opening up a clear path of personal
development. The text is complemented with seven special
meditations to assist us in engaging with the challenges ahead.
