search for god - "a wounding"
psychospiritual approaches

definition

• The meeting ground of man and the gods is where psyche and soma meet, where body is psyche and psyche is body, and where both are subject to the play of archetypal forces. If the gods wound, and if the gods become diseases, as Jung used to say, then it is necessary to understand sickness as a "wounding" and to go in search of the God at work in it. Gods are angered and strike when they are denied, defiled, or devalued. What is needed is to go into the symptom, into the sickness, and connect again with the God hidden there. (Lockhart, p. 65)
