Overview

It is way past time for a new look at the phenomenon of aging - an examination that reveals the ultimate dignity of human life. Such a look reveals the organic process that is going on. It shows instinctive forces at work, pushing growth and especially integration. The latter stage of life has its own developmental tasks, its own challenges, its own urges. There is a biological form of growth that takes place in latter life, it is mostly inside, and doesn't appear like any form of Life known before. This invisible form of growth, confuses many, and demonstrates that latter human existence is still embedded in Life itself.

Author Information

"David ""Lucky"" Goff, Ph.D., M.F.T., served as adjunct faculty at the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology (Sofia University), where he employed large group processes to promote community and personal development. David also assists organizations, including therapeutic and spiritual communities, in their quests to create and sustain genuine community. His research into the ""psychological sense of community"" is the first to examine and describe the conditions that facilitate collective consciousness. In 2003 David had a brain aneurism. As a result of his stroke, and the onset of a rare brain syndrome, he nearly died and ended up permanently disabled. This experience had a transformational effect on David, which made him ""Lucky,"" and cued him into how radically connected all things are. This broader awareness now informs his approach toward what it means to be human. He maintains a psychotherapy practice specializing in psycho-spiritual development. He also writes extensively about a psychology of interdependence (see Embracing Life: Toward A Psychology Of Interdependence), learning community, elders and the conditions that lead to a social and ecological experience of connection.
