Toward a Psychology of Awakening by John Welwood

Toward a Psychology of Awakening by John Welwood

A guide to understanding the relationship between Western psychology and the contemplative sprituality of the East-and how one's spiritual journey can be enriched by both

How can we connect the spiritual realizations of Buddhism with the psychological insights of the West? InToward a Psychology of AwakeningJohn Welwood addresses this question with comprehensiveness and depth, building on his innovative psychospiritual approach to health, healing, and spirituality. He covers the following topics-

.What can the spiritual methodologies of the East teach us about psychological health?
.What issues arise when the recognition of our larger nature challenges our very conception of individual self ?
.What new directions become possible when psychological work is undertaken in a spiritual context?
.How does Western psychological understanding affect our approach to spirituality?

Welwood's psychology of awakening brings together three major dimensions of human existence- personal, interpersonal, and suprapersonal in one overall framework of understanding and practice.
