About this listen

In this pioneering contribution to the emerging men's movement, Robert Moore, a Jungian psychoanalyst and Douglas Gillette, a mythologist, examine the inner King - one of the four archetypes on the male psyche. The inner King integrates power and nurturing, firmness and caring, courage and creativity, self-affirmation and self-sacrifice. From his central position between the world of imagination and the world of action, the King within challenges every man to take up his own scepter, to dream and to make them come true. The King Within both responds to the needs being formulated by the men's movement and addresses the larger questions of male psychology.©1992 Robert Moore (P)2009 Phoenix Gender Studies Personal Development Personal Success Psychology Psychology & Mental Health Social Sciences Thought-Provoking

Awesome narration. Useful, often bizarre, frequently laugh-out-loud, content. Highly recommended! Background in psychology will help appreciate more. The King framework here creates useful heuristics to guide action and introspection, I might suggest 'intentional change theory' as a supplement

profoundly good-bad,entertaining: Don't miss it

Very good and interesting concepts about men’s role in society and how to develop one’s masculinity in a “generative” and healthy way!

Very Enlightening book for men

I really enjoyed listening to this book. This is an excellent framework in understanding and accessing the real male psyhe. I believe today more than ever, a man must develop his real self in order to provide, protect, pro create and serve his community and the world at large. first, though we must access the king within. This was a brilliant teaching.

Interesting concepts. I'd be interested to see more updated or later editions of this though.

A little fast paced but good

I heard about this book through Elliott Hulse, and I enjoyed every minute of it. The king within shows men that it is their birthright to become an axis mundi, to become the generative man!
I am recommending this book to all my bros that want to step it up.

Eye opening book! Highly recommended.

This short book details how far we humans can stray from our King or Queen archetype if left to the gross pleasures of human desires. A man who does not learn to understand himself will become the tyrant and same for a woman.

Kingdom is within all

This book really hit a heart and spiritual connection with a force to be on science religion and ideas. And it shows that we have all the best intentions if we were to just choose to. It really reminded me of another book from Jordan Peterson the 12 rules for life.

Excellent book on heart and intentions

Really good stuff. I see a lot of the problems mentioned in myself and now I know what I need to fix and more or less how to do it. Although, it will take much effort on my part. Makes me want to read the unabridged version for more insight on the ideas

Great starting point
