When seen within the model of embodied imagination, psyche is not a single world. In embodiment, soul mirrors manifold worlds.… Even when they lie dormant.… they are present as a multiplicity of existences.… [A] multiplicity of subjectivities is the norm, not the pathology.… From this perspective, the main task of imaginal work is to let the variety of selves be aware of one another by networking them through the craft of imagination. In this model, a person with a multiple personality disorder is one who does not fathom the multiplicity of embodied imagination, and so is condemned to live out each self, oblivious to the simultaneous coexistence of dormant other selves. [Bosnak, this issue, p. 688].
