Only those who reproduce the path of Jesus within their own souls can make history present. Then it becomes Easter, and the sun of the eighth day, eternity, rises. Religion has the task of showing the human soul the path to salvation. When interpreted correctly, we find this path to healing, redemption, and wholeness described in the Easter story. Diplomat psychologist Thorwald Dethlefsen takes us on a journey through Holy Week in this lecture, which begins on the Sunday before Easter and ends on Easter Sunday with the resurrection of Jesus. In his admirably vivid language, Dethlefsen reveals the true mythological significance of the Easter mystery and, with his psychological perspective, opens up a long-forgotten profound understanding of what Christianity is at its core and how the path unfolds.
