Are we biologically addicted to certain emotions? How can I create my day every day? The answer to the last question is a resounding yes: you are an infinite set of possibilities, and you can choose every day which reality you want to create for yourself. This book shows you how.

Now they've brought their intelligent mix of science, spirituality and incredible graphics and storytelling to the printed page. The book features all new interviews with experts, relevant issues cut from the movie, deeper explanations of some of the more complex and important theories, and commentary from the authors about how these concepts transformed their personal lives for the better.




The Cosmic Game by Stanislav Grof
Explorations of the Frontiers of Human Consciousness (Suny Series in Transpersonal and Humanistic Psychology)
excerpted quotes from Association for Transpersonal Psychology
"Grof is a creative thinker, writer, and scientist who boldly challenges not only the limitations of Western scientific paradigm but also the existing neurophysiological models of the brain. He contends that human consciousness transcends the physical brain and is part of cosmic consciousness and that consciousness is the fundamental element of reality. His work and worldview have profound implications not only for psychology, science and philosophy but for all of us in that they portend a paradigm shift involving our basic assumptions about the nature of reality and, therefore, about the inherent nature of humans and of our relationships with each other, animals, plants, our planet, and the universe."
