Summary

Have you ever felt that your thoughts, feelings, perceptions, and memories - everything you've known to be you - might be just the surface of something far more expansive? That somehow there might be a way to wake up to an entirely new revelation of the world and of yourself?

In 1977, a young psychotherapist named Stephen Wolinsky left his practice to answer these questions. His search would lead him beyond the roots of modern psychology and the contemplative traditions of the world to India's legendary sage Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj. In Waking from the Trance, you are invited to learn what evolved from Wolinsky's quest: a revolutionary new understanding of the nature of consciousness that can help us to see beyond the inner structures that limit our awareness and experience the many dimensions of who we are more fully.

all good

Slightly Freudian in many ways but this guy has been to India and he's known enlightened people. He knows his stuff. His reading of his own work is passionate and better than a stranger reading his book.

So helpful - will be listening to this many times again.

Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a practical guide to self-inquiry. This audiobook has helped me to ground a lot that I’ve come to understand over these past 5 years, while also providing a clearer view on new (and familiar) work that just makes sense.
An open mind is of course needed but the guided meditations really helped me to experience or at least better understand all that was shared.
Perhaps the most important feedback to give is that it’s helped ‘me’ to look at everything differently. Everything looks the same, but it doesn’t. I still think the same thoughts, but they’re not the same. So much more could be said, but there’s no need to say anything. Just so helpful.
