"... individuation - discovering the uniqueness of yourself ...."

“... individuation – discovering the uniqueness of yourself, finding out what you are not and finding out what you are.  Individuation relates to wholeness, but it is not some indiscriminate wholeness but rather your particular relationship to everything else.  You get to the whole only by working with the particularity of your life, not by trying to evade or rise above the specificity of your life.  This is the blending of heaven and earth.  This is a truly religious life.”
