For any lasting transformation to take place, we must first admit into the mind the possibility of change.

Simple as that seems, it is the first place we get hung up. Whether we are looking at our spiritual depths or trying to improve some exterior aspect of ourselves, we are unable to move if we cannot imagine the possibility of movement. It is even an understatement to say this applies only to transformation; we cannot do anything unless we can find mental congruence in the possibility of doing it. If I cannot entertain the vision of washing the dishes, I guarantee I will not wash the dishes.

There's an almost overwhelming amount of attention in postmodern spiritual movements given to the "higher self." Each brand has it's own name, but the concept is the same: it's the highest good in each of us. Unfortunately, postmodern spiritual movements are inextricably wedded to the postmodern worldview at the center of which lies: the self. The old notion of the universe revolving around earth has become very personal: the universe revolves around me. For a society as highly individualized as we are, to reinforce the individual as central to spirituality is misguided at best.
