<H1>Stan Grof -- Pacific Institute Shopping Cart</H1> <B>$0.00</B> -- <I>Psychology of the Future: Lessons from Modern Consciousness Research with Stanislav Grof, M.D. June 20, 2007. First Unitarian Church. San Francisco, CA.</I> <P> <IMG SRC="https://store.nexternal.com/pi/images/stan_grof.JPG.jpg" ALIGN=right ALT="Stan Grof" NAME="Stan Grof" BORDER=0 HSPACE=10> In the last four decades, various avenues of modern consciousness research have revealed a rich array of &#8220;anomalous&#8221; experiences and observations that have undermined some of the most basic assumptions of modern psychiatry, psychology, and psychotherapy concerning consciousness and the human psyche in health and disease. Many of these observations are so radical that they question the basic philosophical assumptions of materialistic science.<BR><BR> In this lecture, we will review these remarkable data and explore the most important major revisions that would have to be made in our understanding of consciousness, of the human psyche, and of the nature of reality to respond to these conceptual challenges. These radical changes in our thinking would fall into the following categories:<BR><BR> 1. Cartography of the Human Psyche<BR> 2. Architecture of Emotional and Psychosomatic Disorders.<BR> 3. Effective Therapeutic Mechanisms<BR> 4. Strategy of Psychotherapy and Self-Exploration<BR> 5. Role of Spirituality in Human Life<BR> 6. The Nature of Reality: Psyche, Cosmos, and Consciousness<BR><BR>ABOUT THE PRESENTER<BR><BR>Stanislav Grof, M.D., is a psychiatrist with more than five decades of experience in research of non-ordinary states of consciousness.
