  2. Description In The Beginning Hollis says, we come into the world and view our reality through a lens. And when we look back we realize we did not live from our true nature. Our families pass on certain lenses to us as children which become our partial reality it conditions our view of life and influences our choices. These views are often informed by childhood trauma which result in a sense of disconnection in the psyche. We create a provisional personality from the strategies we acquired before the age of five, with the common motive of self-protection.Yet, we yearn to recover the connectedness with ourselves. As children, we practice an undifferentiated view of thinking. We believe the energies within and without are aspects of the same reality that an inner event in the psyche causes events in the outer world, and visa versa. The magical thinking of a child is limited and prejudicial and can restrict the psyches development when carried into adulthood. -- These three reviews are by Stephen Farah -- The Real Self The only real tragedy in life is when we remain unaware of the split between our complexes and our nature, and choices. It can result in some of our most painful experiences, especially during a midlife crisis. Suddenly our old defence mechanisms no longer work. Hollis says, the distress should be welcomed, as it signifies a real Self that yearns to be expressed, bringing with it a powerful drive and a message of renewal. The transit of the Middle Passage is a clash between the learned (acquired) personality and the demands of the real Self the first must die and be replaced by the person one wishes to be. Although it can be a source of enormous anxiety, this death and rebirth is not an end, it is a transition in order to live one's full potential and arrive at the life-giving place of mature aging. Hollis: 'thus, the Middle Passage represents a summons from within to move from the provisional life to true adulthood, from the false self to authenticity'. (p.15) Moving Forward Hollis writes: 'An insufficiently attained ego identity haunts and hinders a person's development in the second half of life.' (p.40) The shift from ego state to the middle passage causes confusion, frustration and loss of identity if this task remains incomplete, it can result in significant distress and disillusionment. The natural response of the ego is to blame the outer world, the same way the child held the parent responsible for meeting his needs. The turning towards one's inner Self, signals the true beginning of maturity taking full responsibility means we cannot hold god or parents or society responsible. With the breaking down of the ego, it is no longer the prime ruler. This humbling experience although painful, as the story of Job symbolizes, is what is needed for the ego to shift from an ego-world perspective to the ego-self which the second adulthood necessitates. Growing up means finally confronting one's dependencies, complexes and fears without the help of others.
