These are the many questions I have faced in the past and tried to answer to the best of my knowledge and experience. I, too, was the victim of sexual abuse, including incest, and . Transcending psychological theories, statistics and what the professionals told me, I was able to free myself completely from the chains that bound me to my past abuse. I believe that an ignorance of spiritual life is at the basis of our refusal to believe in human potential. Today, we have proof that traditional psychology has limits.

To attain liberation, we must engage in exploration not only at a surface, rational level, but at a deeper level. The university training of mental health professionals is based mainly on Freudian concepts. Although Freud has contributed greatly to our understanding of what it is to be human, he has severely wronged sexual abuse victims. In his time, he did not believe patients who dared to reveal that they had been abused by their fathers. Instead, he told them that they were confabulating or fantasizing and were hysterical.
