Large numbers of people today feel they are leading what could be called disynchronous lives; that is, they feel that the various parts of their lives are not moving in time with each other. . . . We must see more clearly how we got to the strange time and place in which we now find ourselves. Only then will we be able to free ourselves a little bit from the tyranny of the clock and rediscover the slower rhythms of soul time that lie dormant within us.
