"The spiritual focus alone is what guarantees and constitutes unity and wholeness in man. Wholeness, in this context, means the integration of the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects. It must be emphasized again that only this threefold wholeness makes man whole."
From 'The Unconscious God', Viktor Frankel
