David Deida's 1997 book presenting a spiritual and practical framework for masculine development — arguing that a man's primary gift to the world and to relationships is depth of presence, clarity of purpose, and the capacity to hold consciousness while his partner expresses emotion.
Provides the vocabulary and conceptual framework for a spiritually grounded masculinity — presence, purpose, polarity — that neither the conventional success-oriented masculinity nor the feminist-influenced emotional masculinity adequately addresses, filling a gap that made it foundational in the conscious masculinity space.
