Richo nos invita a echar un vistazo muy íntimo a varias facetas del ser humano para explicar por qué siempre tenemos ese «anhelo» de tener más, ya sea amor, felicidad, libertad, madurez o significado de nuestra existencia. Este libro es un recorrido por cada uno de los «cinco anhelos» para ver cómo es que podemos conocernos a través de ellos en el camino hacia la plenitud.

David Richo draws from history, Jungian psychology, Buddhism, nature, and other spiritual traditions to illuminate our connection to the “helpers” we can call upon to navigate life. Some of the assisting forces in our lives are visible, and some are invisible. Some are with us for life; some come and go. Spiritual assisting forces could be bodhisattvas and saints—or partners in a relationship who are allies to one another. In this fascinating inquiry, Richo posits that the archetype of the ally is necessary if we want to connect with the richness of our lives.

Our “shadow” is the collection of negative or undesirable traits we keep hidden—the things we don't like about ourselves or are ashamed of, but it also includes our positive, untapped potential. The shadow is often a source of creative inspiration and greater self-acceptance. Befriending the shadow makes fear an ally and enables us to live more authentically. It also automatically improves our interpersonal relationships, because we are freed from the need to project our own negativity onto others, and we become more acutely aware when theirs is projected onto us.
