Women & Men
Just as each person is composed of two elements, the body and soul, which we must learn to fully integrate, man and woman are the two elements of humankind.
Will the struggle ever end or are men and women destined for perpetual conflict? What are the roots of this strife? We must use the “battle of the sexes” as a catalyst to reach back into our true selves. Learn about what it means to be a man or a woman, about masculine and feminine energy. Learn to live up to your potential, to balance these energies to lead a productive and meaningful life. And finally, learn to appreciate and respect your male or female counterpart.
