Stanislav Grof teleseminar on "Birthing a New World"

(1 rating)

This teleseminar features one of transpersonal psychology's founders and most eminent leaders, Stanislav Grof. In dialogue with host Stephen Dinan, Dr. Grof reflects on the insights that have emerged from over 40 years of non-ordinary state research into the human psyche with psychedelics and Holotropic Breathwork™. He then relates this material to dynamics we are now experiencing on the world stage, showing how unconscious perinatal material is influential in war, violence, and oppression, and is often used by political leaders. He discusses the typical and natural changes that happen in individuals who undertake a deep journey of transformation, such as a reduction of aggression, increase in compassion, a stronger ecological sensibility, and a sense of global citizenship. He also reflects on historical cycles that correlate with astrological transits and how this might color our collective journey.

Here's another one for download and distribution! Grof and Dinan cover intriguing intellectual terrain in just over forty minutes, with Stan touching on a wide sampling of his astonishing research spanning four decades at the cutting edge of consciousness. Truly a Magellan of the Mind, Stanislav Grof remains a towering figure in his field, mapping the intricacies of individual and collective psychic space with rigor and passion.
I was particularly struck by Stan's insights on the establishment of transformational centers which might apply multi-modal approaches to extending human development. Having experienced Holotropic Breathwork in the mid-90's, I can attest to its impact and efficacy. In combination with tools like biofeedback and subtle energy techniques, these methods may turn the tide, and build the field for a Noetic Future.
Thanks extended to Stephen for skillful means applied in arranging and conducting this inspiring interview, and all supporting players in the IONS team. Do continue, please!
