Moore. This book was released on 2003. Facing the Dragon available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Structured around a series of lectures presented at the Jung Institute of Chicago in a program entitled "Jungian Psychology and Human Spirituality: Liberation from Tribalism in Religious Life," this book-length essay attacks the related problems of human evil, spiritual narcissism, secularism and ritual, and grandiosity. Robert Moore dares to insist that we stop ignoring these issues and provides clear-sighted guidance for where to start and what to expect. Along the way, he pulls together many important threads from recent findings in theology, spirituality, and psychology and brings us to a point where we can conceive of embarking on a corrective course. Traditional doctrinal and historical interpretation both rely heavily on rational analysis. But from the disciples at Emmaus to the beginnings of the present century, it has been the impact of scripture upon the human heart that has changed human lives. In recent decades, this impact has been strengthened by advances in linguistic and literary theory, by such disparate influences as feminism, structuralism, Jungianism, deconstructionism, the analysis of archaic imagery and myth, the recovery of Gnostic texts, and finally an openness to pluralism, whether ethnic, geographic, religious, or interpretive. All of these factors are treated here with a brevity and comprehensiveness which convincingly show that the reader of scripture has a creative and not merely passive role. "If you would understand the deepest roots of terrorism, greed, and religious fanaticism, read Facing the Dragon.

Sprinting Backwards to God tells of a hilarious and poignant journey with Grandfather Duncan Shoko Sings-Alone. From an early age, he yearned to serve God as a minister, but the Spirits had a different plan for him. They did everything they could to disrupt his dash toward the Christian ministry. After relinquishing his dream of the ministry, a Native American medicine man called Grandfather back to his roots. After seven years of intensive training, Grandfather created and led a large, intertribal sweat lodge community. Sprinting Backwards to God is his story and testament that there are many ways to Godand sprinting backwards might be one. Sprinting Backwards to God is the first book about Grandfathers unusual journey. The second, Stalking Nirvana: The Native American (Red Path) Zen Way, continues the story. The Spirits insisted he teach the dominant culture how to relate to Grandmother Earth in a positive way. They opened the door to the Zen Buddhist world, which enthusiastically embraced his teachings. Ultimately, he continued to sprint backwards and became an ordained priest and Roshi within the Zen Garland Order.
