Stan Grof has once again graced us with his profound understanding and explanation of the freedom possible through the model of transpersonal psychology. My personal exploration into emotional healing and integration during the past 15 years -- using the transpersonal model -- has brought me joy, peace, passion, and love, all by going into the depths of my emotions, especially the denied emotions of hurt, fear, anger, hatred (and I am such a "nice" person!). As more people choose to go through this transformational work, we will be resolving the core issues behind the recurring patterns of violence, heartache, burnout, and addictions in our world. Thank you, Dr. Grof, for providing information to support the shift in awareness. I just hope it doesn't take too long for our traditional psychologists and psychiatrists to recognize this larger, more complete explanation of the human psyche. Remember how Vitamin C in limes prevents scurvy -- but it took the British 100 years AFTER that discovery to provide limes to their sailors. What a lot of pain for nothing! Key points of Grof's writings include: 1. Birth issues (before-during and after) form emotional patterns that recur throughout one's life -- until you heal them. 2. Spiritual emergency, if not treated like psychosis and drugged down, can provide a route to greater healing and personal responsibility. 3. Safe methods (such as "holotropic breathwork") for inducing transformational, healing experiences are readily available. I advocate using these methods to provide modern "rites of passage," especially for our teenagers.
Grof's credentials and continued attention to rigorous investigation should help even the most skeptical to sit up and take notice. Transpersonal psychology is like Einstein's model of physics being much larger and more encompassing than the F=MA physics of Newton and Descartes.
