Presentation Announcement by Michael Eigen (USA)

“Psyche Singing-Weeping: Partnering Soul Hunger and our Amazing Beings.” Center for Modern Psychoanalytic Studies. New York, NY, October 25, 2019.

Michael Eigen explores the themes of his two latest books, The Challenge of Being Human and Dialogues with Michael Eigen: Psyche Singing. The phrase “psyche singing” gives expression to one aspect of psyche-hunger, a dimension of universal soul hunger. The shock of ourselves is perennial. We are challenged by our own aliveness and a need to open doors as yet unknown. Developing the capacity to tolerate and work with experience is part of our evolutionary challenge, exposing us to existential sufferings, agonies, traumas, and losses in need of soul confession, if not analytic prayer. Eigen explores psychoanalytic faith and emotions as messengers in need of recognition, welcoming inner gestures for incubation which enable deep vitalizing contact of being with oneself and others. We are never done evolving, growing, learning, feeling, and caring.
