About this listen

In every mystical wisdom tradition, nonordinary states of consciousness have served as essential tools for discovering why we are here and how we can live richer, more meaningful lives. For over 40 years, Stanislav Grof has tested and brought these methods into the field of modern psychology. Are emotional states and behavioral patterns explained solely by brain chemistry and life experience - or could they be expressions of far vaster universal energies? Which specific mind states most powerfully accelerate integration and healing of the self? And how do you access these states? In The Transpersonal Vision, Grof answers these questions - and raises many others - in a stunning summation of his groundbreaking life's work. You will learn about transpersonal psychology's daring forays into the worlds of the shaman and the mystic; how your perinatal (birth and prebirth) experience profoundly affect you even today; what past-life, near-death, and out-of-body phenomena teach us about our life purpose; and much more.

Outstanding program!

This audiobook/program by Stanislav Grof presents a compelling alternative to the current Cartesian-Newtonian world view offered to and adopted by most western societies. It gives new meaning to the term "time-tested" in the context of the study of social "technologies" which evolved over the last 5000 years, and were forgotten, suppressed or replaced by modern science and materialistic paradigms. He exposes the fallacy of thinking about hard science and spirituality as conflicting disciplines. It is particularly interesting to hear this from a man of science who grew up and was educated in the rational, materialistic system of thought.

Intellectually, it begs us to at least consider the idea of a cosmic existence beyond our rational ,ego-centric being, but even more interesting are the practical implications. How we view ourselves, and the life strategies we adopt, consciously or not; shape most of our existence in this world. Dr. Grof presents a practical method to improve the voyage, through a process of self-discovery.

A fascinating account of the evolution of depth psychology, social pathology and the path to profound evolutionary change in the human psyche.

Highly recommended.

Very powerful book, completely appropriate

Very powerful book, encompassing such diverse topics as entheogenics, psychotherapy and spirituality and weaving it into a coherent modality called transpersonal therapy. I strongly recommend it for anyone seeking answers in this world gone mad!

5 stars! Must listen for all mental health workers.

This was a wonderful deep dive into Grof’s work. Clinicians need to understand the human conscious and Supra conscious Grof provides a map. Engrossing. Covers so many important aspects of human consciousness. Covers spiritual awakenings and even the consciousness that creates fascism and violence. Well-read. Easy to listen to. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

A different way to understand reality

Grof is a real teacher , his perinatal view of reality is eyes opening. He does a perfect job in maintaining a scientific approach on themes like synchronicity, life after death and spiritual emergencies. For all the psychonauts that need a map of transpersonal esperiencies this book will help you to navigate the uncanny realities of psychedelics and feel safer in the hero journey.
