The Marriage Spirit
Finding the Passion and Joy of Soul-Centered Love
By Drs. Evelyn & Paul Moschetta
A New Vision for Marriage
As you read The Marriage Spirit you will encounter what may be new spiritual ideas and practices. Here spiritual does not mean "religious." It refers instead to a growing awareness of your divine nature and its connection to a larger universal life force, a shared energy and intelligence that pulsate through all of us.
Our search for a broader context for marriage led us to where Western psychology and Eastern mystical teachings come together. Here we found a point of view that blends psychology and spirituality, an inspiring vision that merges the language of the psyche with the language of the soul.
While Western psychology encourages analyzing the fragments of a confused and divided self, the Eastern view is one of not analyzing but observing, carefully watching or witnessing the movements of that self, the ego.
We learned that through witnessing you begin to sense the larger, invisible presence in which your smaller ego self operates. This living presence has no beginning and no end. It cannot be located in time or space. It is eternal and illuminates all that appears in it. The same invisible force that rotates the planets, creates mountains, and grows flowers moves inside you. This is your spiritual self, the self of your true divine nature. Becoming aware of this self transforms your marriage into a sacred place.
