New Book: The Ultimate Journey: Consciousness and the Mystery of Death by Stan Grof MD from MAPS
Back in the early 1980s. I took a month long workshop from Stan Grof at Esalen Insitute. The title was Journey to the East and it is an experience I shall never forget.
Dr. Grof has just released a new book which has been published by MAPS. Here is an excerpt from the cover copy:
>Read the rest at the link at the top of this post.Dr. Stanislav Grof, author of LSD Psychotherapy and originator of Holotropic Breathwork, offers a wealth of perspectives on how we can enrich and transform the experience of dying in our culture. In The Ultimate Journey, Dr. Grof
discusses his own patients experiences of death and rebirth in psychedelic therapy, investigates cross-cultural beliefs, paranormal and near-death research, and argues that, contrary to the predominant Western perspective, death is not necessarily the end of consciousness. Foreward by Huston Smith.
Here is a bit about the author, Stan Grof:
Stanislav Grof, M.D., internationally acclaimed psychiatrist and co-founder of the transpersonal psychology, has taught and lectured in academic and workshop settings worldwide. He has served as Chief of Psychiatric Research at the Maryland Psychiatric Research Center, Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Scholar-in-Residence at Esalen Institute, and Co-President of the Grof Transpersonal Training Program. Dr. Grof is a distinguished faculty member at the California Institute of Integral Studies and the author of many books, including LSD Psychotherapy, The Adventure of Self-Discovery, The Cosmic Game, and Psychology of the Future.
Lots of books and titles in that bio! Also a subject that should be of interest to all of us. You can order a copy at Amazon by clicking here
