The theme of Humanity on the Threshold is spiritual development. This deepens our resilience as unusual experiences come our way from across the outer and inner thresholds of our consciousness. As the boundaries that limit our ordinary consciousness break down, ways open up for exploring personal development. Guidelines are suggested for working therapeutically with those experiencing threshold issues.
