From "The Opening to the Spiritual World:"
"A.A. is a spiritual program and a spiritual way
of life. Even the first half of the First Step, 'We
admitted we were powerless over alcohol,' is a
spiritual experience. An A.A. member needs
more than physical capabilities; he needs to use
his full faculties as a human being to hear the
message, to think about it, to review the effects
of the past, to realize, to admit, and to accept.
These processes are activities of the mind,
which is part of the spirit."
c. 1973, Came to Believe..., page 3
