“I was deeply moved and changed, and am profoundly grateful for the whole experience. I see more about how I re-enact dysfunctional gender scenarios, despite my conscious commitment to change. Satyana Institute’s vision [of gender reconciliation] is unique, and uniquely valuable to the world.”
Peter Rutter, MD, is a psychiatrist and Jungian analyst practicing in New York City. He has been deeply involved in gender justice and reconciliation work over the past two decades through his clinical work, his service as a mediator and expert legal witness, and his books — Sex in the Forbidden Zone — and — Understanding and Preventing Sexual Harassment. — His chapter, “Reasonable Woman/Reasonable Man: The emergence of a modern archetype of gender equality in political life,” in the book —The Vision Thing: Myth, Politics and Psyche in the World,— describes the way in which values such as equality can evolve, from their source in the psyche and spirit, into new justice-oriented cultural standards. He has served as faculty for the Satyana Institute’s Gender Reconciliation program, and as a board member of the San Francisco Zen Center and the C. G. Jung Institute of San Francisco.
