The Golden World is part memoir and part spiritual guidebook. This precious audio learning course chronicles author Robert A. Johnson's lifelong quest for enlightenment. With utmost authority and accessibility, narrator and author Johnson tells listeners his incredible life story. Johnson details life changing experiences such as a near death encounter in childhood and his education in Jungian studies. Johnson draws listeners into a recap of his lifelong work as an author of psychological and spiritual classics. He touches on subjects such as dream interpretation, the influence of culture on the self, the importance of imagination and the human concept of heaven. This audio course enables listeners to get to know a living legend, and you won't be disappointed with what he has to say. Johnson coaches listeners on how to interpret dreams, understand their own "typology", find life mentors, link the ego to spiritual forces, in addition to many other practical hands on topics. This is a beautifully produced audio course by one of the world's most influential spiritual writers. Listeners will be captivated by what he has to say.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Inspiring Memoir and Audio Course, October 26, 2007

I must admit, I hadn't heard of Robert A. Johnson before I listened to this audio course. After listening to Johnson describe the lifetime of spiritual seeking he has undertaken, I am motivated to read his other publications. Johnson is so inspiring! I especially enjoyed the parts of this audio course that were devoted to dream interpretation. I was left with many tools and techniques for using my dreams as a guide to my conscious life. I found this part of the course fun, interesting, and usefull without being too academic. After listening to this program I feel like I really understand Robert Johnson as both a man, and as an iconic writer of spiritual texts. I highly recommend this audio course for anyone interested in dream analysis and anyone who has undertaken the lifelong quest for enlightenment. Check it out, you won't be disappointed!

I approached this set with great anticipation, and was finding the first CD really interesting. However, to my dismay, at the end of the first CD Johnson says that the myths that he is talking about have applied historically only to men, and that, as a man, he can only speak for men. Women may have a different path, he says. Whether this is true or not, as a woman I lost interest.
