I came across this passage several years ago, and the power of it changed me. It’s from an important Men’s book called King, Warrior, Magician, Lover. by Robert Moore and Douglas Gillette.
The book outlines what the authors suggest is the difference between Man Psychology and Boy Psychology.
The authors also provocatively suggest that if the Patriarchy is indeed the source of much of the suffering in our modern world, then it follows that Patriarchy must be itself, rooted in Boy Psychology.
I will be sourcing this important book in the coming weeks, in tele-seminars and group meetings, but for now, the quote:
Young men today are starving for blessing from older men, starving for blessing from the King energy. This is why they cannot, as we say, “get it together”. They shouldn’t have to. They need to be blessed. They need to be seen by the King, because if they are, something inside will come together for them. This is the effect of the blessing; it heals and makes whole. ~ King, Warrior, Magician, Lover. Robert Moore and Douglas Gillette pg 61
