From the twelfth-century mystic Hildegard of Bingen and the nineteenth-century spiritualist Georgiana Houghton to the pioneering Hilma af Klint, these women all - in their own unique ways - shared the same goal: to communicate with, and learn from, other dimensions.

Book SynopsisA cutting-edge guide to the psychology and neuroscience of spiritual experiences Spiritual experiences have occurred within people around the world and throughout history, up to and including the present day. The founders of every major religion described them, philosophers since antiquity have pondered them, and according to recent polls, about 30% of people still report them. A century ago, philosopher and psychologist William James famously analyzed accounts of these experiences and raised questions for future scientific study. What triggers these events? How are the brain and body affected? How do these brief moments have such lasting effects? Now, modern science has some answers. This book invites readers into contemporary psychology and neuroscience laboratories around the world to learn about these elusive yet profound inner events. As it explores phenomena ranging from divine revelations to paranormal experiences to life-changing experiences of unity, findings from modern science are illustrated with a diverse set of personal accounts from believers and non-believers alike, plunging readers into deeply personal and sometimes transformative moments. Written by two renowned scientists in the field, this book is a deep exploration of the psychology and neuroscience of a range of profoundly meaningful experiences.Trade ReviewTheir [Yaden and Newberg] sensible and sensitive work should sit comfortably on the shelf next to James's. * Daniel Burke, The Washington Post *The most important book on the science of religion in my lifetime. * Martin E. P. Seligman, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology, University of Pennsylvania, Author of Learned Optimism and Authentic Happiness *If you have the slightest curiosity about the spiritual dimensions of life and death, and if you value an approach that explores the outer reaches of mystical experience, yet never pretends to know what we don't yet know, this is the book for you. * Susan Cain, NY Times Bestselling Author of Quiet and Bittersweet *This comprehensive and much needed book covers the latest science of psychedelics, spirituality, and altered states of consciousness in general. You will learn about the most cutting-edge psychology and neuroscience on these mental states while reading personal stories from people who have been fundamentally transformed by their visits to some of the most fascinating depths of human experience. I highly recommend this groundbreaking book! * Scott Barry Kaufman, Ph.D., Author of Transcend and Host of The Psychology Podcast *What David Yaden and Andrew Newberg have done through their painstaking research is to provide the world with a 21st Century James. Like James, they are respectful of their subjects' experiences and careful not to pronounce judgments on the psychological and numinous worlds they inhabit. This book will become a classic. * Kevin Rudd, Former Prime Minister of Australia, Author of The Avoidable War? *In the scientific project of demystifying mysticism, Yaden and Newberg are the undisputed heirs to the legendary research of William James. The authors deftly plumb the caverns of neuroscience, psychology, pharmacology, philosophy, and religious studies to usher the nebulous world of spiritual experience into the spotlight of 21st-century academic discourse. An encyclopedic feat that transcends disciplinary boundaries, and sets the stage for a bold new era of inquiry. * Brian C. Muraresku, Author of The Immortality Key: The Secret History of the Religion with No Name *This scholarly update of William James' seminal book, Varieties of Religious Experience, will be of great value to those interested in investigating the causes and enduring effects of sacred and secular spiritual experiences through a scientific lens. * Roland R. Griffiths, Ph.D., The Oliver Lee McCabe, III Professor in the Neuropsychopharmacology of Consciousness, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine *David Yaden and Andrew Newberg have produced a book that will bring you wonder, inspiration, and awe. It is for our 21st century what William James's Varieties book was for the 20th century: a comprehensive, open minded, rigorous exploration of human spiritual life * Dacher Keltner, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology UC Berkeley, Author of The Power Paradox *In this interdisciplinary study written for a general audience, the authors' declared aim is "to carry forward James's insights and fill in some of the empirical gaps of his speculations with decades of scientific work on spiritual experiences". * Arthur Holder, Graduate Theological Union, Berkeley, CA, Theological Studies 84(2) *David Bryce Yaden and Andrew B. Newberg bring the field squarely into the modern day with The Varieties of Spiritual Experience: 21st Century Research and Perspectives...this book will offer you a deep well of thought and research to further your study and future questions that will hopefully lead to another book like this before the next century. * John W. Hall, PhD *The authors present a rich variety of perspectives from psychology and religious studies, and they draw from multiple culture... They enlighten our understanding of James at the same time as they update it, placing his work in the context of current psychological and neuroscientific research. In doing this with a highly accessible book, they have done us all a great favor. * Michael E. Nielsen, The International Journal for the Psychology of Religion *David B. Yaden and Andrew B. Newberg's The Varieties of Spiritual Experience: 21st Century Research and Perspectives engages thoughtfully with this science-and-spirituality nexus, considering the processes and psychological outcomes associated with an array of inner phenomena grouped under the umbrella of the "spiritual." The book reflects on the decades-long project of neurotheology in which Newberg was a founding figure, and takes up James's speculations about a science of religion with simultaneous modesty and ambition. * Alicia Puglionesi, H-Sci-Med-Tech *The title summarizes the ambitious goal of the book: establishing a foundational work for the twenty-first-century study of spiritual experiences...the book would be a perfect read for scholars from psychology and neuroscience and for scholars and graduate students from medicine, religious studies, philosophy, pharmacology, anthropology, and psychiatry. * Zsuzsanna Szugyiczki, Religious Studies Review *David B Yaden and Andrew B Newberg have written a seminal book that will be of high interest to mental health clinicians and researchers, pastoral counselors and caregivers, clergy, theologians, and philosophers. * Charles D.Mayer, Anglican Theological Review 103 *The Varieties of Spiritual Experience is a broad entree into contemporary research on spiritual experience and is a good go-to,...It would fit well in an undergraduate/graduate religious studies course as well as in a theory and methods class. * Benjamin Crace, Nova Religio vol 27.2 *Table of ContentsPART I: THE SCIENCE OF ALTERED STATES Chapter 1: Introduction: Toward a Science of Spiritual Experience for the 21st Century Chapter 2: William James: A Study in Human Nature Chapter 3: The Varieties: The Classic Text and its Impact Chapter 4: The Psychology of Spiritual Experiences Chapter 5: The Brain on Spiritual Experiences Chapter 6: Origins: Triggers of Spiritual Experience Chapter 7: The Pragmatic Principle: Positive and Pathological Experiences PART II: THE VARIETIES Chapter 8: Types of Spiritual Experience Chapter 9: Numinous Experiences: Encountering Divinity Chapter 10: Revelatory Experiences: Voices, Visions, and Epiphanies Chapter 11: Synchronicity Experiences:

The Teachings of don Juan is the story of Carlos Castaneda''s extraordinary experiences. In 1960 Carlos Castaneda was a graduate student when he met Don Juan, a Yaqui Indian feared and shunned by the ordinary folk of the American Southwest because of his unnatural powers. During the next five years don Juan''s arcana knowledge led Castaneda into a world of beauty and terror, ruled by concepts far beyond those of Western civilisation.

Book SynopsisThe purpose of The Transparency of Things is to look clearly and simply at the nature of experience, without any attempt to change it. A series of contemplations leads us gently but directly to see that our essential nature is neither a body nor a mind. It is the conscious Presence that is aware of this current experience. As such, it is nothing that can be experienced as an object, and yet it is undeniably present. However, these contemplations go much further than this. As we take our stand knowingly as this conscious Presence that we always already are, and reconsider the objects of the body, mind, and world, we find that they do not simply appear to this Presence; they appear within it. And further exploration reveals that they do not simply appear within this Presence but as this Presence. Finally, we are led to see that it is in fact this very Presence that takes the shape of our experience from moment to moment while always remaining only itself. We see that our experience is and has only ever been one seamless totality, with no separate entities, objects, or parts anywhere to be found.

Book SynopsisOpportunities to enter a spiritual place are all around us, but we often don’t recognise them. Pause - A Spiritual Power helps the reader identify those moments and enter places of spiritual pause. The spiritual life, often neglected, exists apart from our thoughts and feelings. Pause… explores how spirituality is separate and how we often mistakenly substitute rational and emotional experiences for spiritual experience. To be spiritual is not to be religious or bound to a specific understanding of God. To be human is to have a spirit within, regardless of religious commitment or persuasion. Attending to one’s spiritual life, finding pause, is not confined or defined by any one faith tradition. In Pause..., author Rob Wykes relates accounts of his own journeys - physical and spiritual - that have helped him discover his own spiritual self. Part of his story is a literal pilgrimage on foot and by bike that brought him into a deeper understanding of pause. Attending to one’s spiritual being is as important as physical health and emotional self-care. Learning to find pause in life’s experiences and to enter those spiritual places yields profound meaning and pleasure many have never before known.

Collected here for the first time, these stories span his life. There are stories from his childhood and the traditions of rural Vietnam. There are stories from his years as a teenage novice, as a young teacher and writer in war torn Vietnam, and of his travels around the world to teach mindfulness, make pilgrimages to sacred sites and influence world leaders. The tradition of Zen teaching stories goes back at least to the time of the Buddha. Like the Buddha, Thich Nhat Hanh uses story-telling to engage people's interest so he can share important teachings, insights and life lessons.Trade Review‘This book is ideal if you are going [to Vietnam] to find inner calm or want something mindful to read.’ * Wanderlust Travel Magazine *

Book SynopsisThis book...will appeal to those who are in touch with their inner creative impulses, or are motivated but do not know how to begin. The aim is to make this spiritual path possible for every person. It can change the way one relates to life and work - at first simply by an attitude shift, as a questioning, caring human being, taking seriously the spiritual forces that manifest in all outer phenomena.' How do adults learn and develop? How can adult learning become a living, growing process? Based on the application of the 'seven life processes', Coenraad van Houten has successfully developed the methods of 'Vocational Learning' (Awakening the Will, 1999) and 'Destiny Learning' (Practising Destiny, 2000). Here, in the culmination of his research trilogy, he presents a new path of adult learning which he calls 'Creative Spiritual Research'. Based on the inner spiritual path of the individual, this is a method that relates to esoteric schooling, thresholds of consciousness and human creativity. Part One of Creative Spiritual Research features guidelines and exercises for individual practice, whilst Part Two focuses on the general schooling path as a preparation or precondition, opening the inner space needed for research as well as a questioning attitude.

Book SynopsisJohn Henry Newman, one of the towering figures of the early Victorian Church of England, caused shock and outrage in equal measure when he announced his espousal of Roman Catholicism in 1845. His Apologia, written nearly twenty years later in response to a scurrilous public attack by Charles Kingsley, is a superbly crafted response to those who criticized his actions and questioned his motives, and traces his spiritual development since boyhood, his close involvement in the high church Tractarian Movement and his agonizing decision to reject the church he had been born into. Ostensibly an autobiography and a speech for the defence, the Apologia transcends self-justification to explore the very nature of Christianity and its place in the modern age.Table of ContentsApologia Pro Vita Sua - John Henry Newman Edited with an Introduction by Ian KerAbbreviationsIntroductionSelect BibliographyChronologyAPOLOGIA PRO VITA SUAAppendicesEditor's Notes
