"We cannot find ourselves, or be ourselves, alone." In the contrasting healing traditions of Buddhism and psychoanalysis, there is a shared belief in the ameliorative impact of interpersonal relationship between designated healers and those seeking wellness. It is for this reason that both traditions, despite widely divergent methodologies, privilege the process of revealing one's inner life to a primary healer. In this book Pilar Jennings examines how these intimate relationships between Buddhist teachers and their students, and psychoanalysts and their patients, evolve and differ, with emphasis on the methods and goals they consciously and unconsciously utilize. Through this comparative examination, Mixing Minds seeks to encourage a growing interest in and respect for healing modalities that are unique to each tradition and healing couple.
