Waking from the Trance
By Stephen Wolinsky

Have you ever felt that your thoughts, feelings, perceptions, and memories – everything you’ve known to be "you" – might be just the surface of something far more expansive? That somehow, there might be a way to "wake up" to an entirely new revelation of the world and of yourself? In 1977, a young psychotherapist named Stephen Wolinsky left his practice to answer these questions. His search would lead him beyond the roots of modern psychology and the contemplative traditions of the world to India’s legendary sage Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj. On Waking from the Trance, you are invited to learn what evolved from Wolinsky’s quest: a revolutionary new understanding of the nature of consciousness that can help us to see beyond the inner structures that limit our awareness.
Here is an opportunity to join the author of Trances People Live in nine hours of compelling instruction and exercises to help you learn how to identify the "frames" that organize your most basic experiences ... extend your awareness to every level of who you are ... and, ultimately, to discover who you are beyond your thoughts, emotions, memories, associations, and perceptions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pure Simplification of "The Way of the Human", September 16, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Waking from the Trance: A Practical Course on Developing Multidimensional Awareness (Audio Cassette)

I have read all books of Dr. Wolinsky, "Waking from the Trance" is not an exeption of the seriousness of his writing. This is a book for anyone seeking a meaningful path in life without distortions and sweet tells, a guide for personal transformation that can literally change your life.
The purpose of this work is to summarize the development of multy-dimensional awarenes which can help you discover Who You Are. Dr. Wolisky is one of the few lucky people to encounter Nisargadatta Maharaj on his way to selfrealization, and this is the fruit of his pure teaching

Anyone on the path of enlightenment should add this course to their studies. It can be daunting at first to understand where Stephen is going with this technique. But as the listener continues on this tutorial, the stories he shares can be enjoyed while gathering information during his discourse for use in the normal meditation disciplines.

There is indeed, however "something to be gained" from being spiritual. It can change an individual's entire reality, affecting healing and lending great serenity. What Mr. Wolinsky is trying to help accomplish here, is to remove barriers and fears associated with previous religious teachings that may be hindering the learner's progress. To go deeper than just one or two causes or directions, but to have the ability to reach multiple levels of awareness. This will (according to Quantum Psychology) allow us to consciously evolve. There's no telling what abilities we can gain if we *can* reach that level.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent set of tapes to get you to awareness, May 23, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Waking from the Trance: A Practical Course on Developing Multidimensional Awareness (Audio Cassette)

I have listened to the set of tapes several times.

I find Dr. Wolinsky easy to understand and find his method of going through the different dimensions (external, mind/thoughts, body, feelings/emotions) to be a uncomplicated way of understanding the different levels and getting to the I; the not I, I; the essence and the void.

I recommend it highly for those interested in pursuit of the self, essence.
