LSD - Stan Grof is the Godfather
Quote:
A person who has taken LSD does not have an 'LSD experience,' but takes a journey into deep recesses of his or her own psyche. When this substance is given in the same dosage and under comparable circumstances to a large number of individuals, each of them will have a different experience reflecting the specificities of his or her psyche.-- Stanislav Grof, M.D. Reviews and Comments: "If I am the father of LSD, Stan Grof is the godfather. Nobody has contributed as much as Stan for the de-velopment of my problem child."-- Dr. Albert Hofmann, research chemist and author of LSD: My Problem Child "I know of no work that so well incorporates the findings of Freud, Jung and Rank, adding fresh insights, which the methods of those psycho-therapists could never have achieved. I do not doubt that many others working in this field would find Dr. Grof's discoveries a basis for a whole new strategy of research."-- Joseph Campbell, author of The Hero with a Thousand Faces, The Masks of God and Myths We Live By "(O)ne of the most creative and brilliant phenomen-ologies and methodologies of the deeper psychodynamic processes that I know of... A breakthrough work."-- Jean Houston, Ph.D., The Foundation for Mind Research "Stanislav Grof is probably the most brilliant mind in psychology today."-- Fred Alan Wolf, Ph.D., author of The Eagle's Quest and Taking the Quantum Leap "[Grof's work] is the most important contribution to personality theory in several decades."-- Abraham Maslow, founder of Humanistic Psychology Read Online: Preface Chapter 1 - History of LSD Therapy Chapter 8 - Non-Therapeutic Uses of LSD The Epilogue - The Future of LSD Psychotherapy Appendix I - Crisis Intervention in Situations Related to Unsupervised Use of Psychedelics Appendix II - The Effects of LSD on Chromosomes, Genetic Mutation, Fetal Development and Malignancy |
