Depression and Spiritual Growth (PHP 327) door Dimitri Mihalas
Describes how the misery of deep depression can act as a catalyst for the development of greater spiritual depth.
The author writes: "I am an astronomer, professor, and a Quaker. In 1986 I passed through a year of major depression, the worst experience of my life, yet, starting in 1987 I have reaped incalculable benefits from it. My world view has changed radically for the better. My life now opens out on peaceful paths and breathtaking vistas I never knew existed. I share this essay for the encouragement of others who have known depression in any degree."
This is a very moving story of the author's depression and healing from it, and the spiritual growth that both contributed to and resulted from the healing.
