About this listen

Dana Sawyer skillfully synthesizes insights from spiritual luminaries like Aldous Huxley, Alan Watts, and Ram Dass with contemporary thinkers, offering practical tools for personal growth and a deeper understanding of timeless 'perennial' wisdom. This fresh examination speaks to all who pursue self-realization, offering an illuminating guide for navigating the depths of consciousness.

The Perennial Philosophy, popular in the 1960s-70s for exploring human consciousness through mystical traditions, meditation, and psychedelics, waned in influence in the 1980s. Sawyer breathes new life into this timeless perspective in a concise, up-to-date overview.

Exploring unitive mystical experiences (UMEs) and non-ordinary states of consciousness, Sawyer provides a framework for understanding our potential for transformation. He skillfully connects the Perennial Philosophy to today's psychedelic renaissance and ongoing research into consciousness expansion. He offers valuable context for those seeking to understand and integrate profound, non-ordinary states of consciousness.

This accessible guide bridges the enduring relevance of perennial wisdom with contemporary approaches to spiritual growth and psychological well-being. It will appeal to spiritual practitioners and anyone interested in self-realization.

As a special bonus, this audiobook concludes with a fascinating interview with Sawyer, where he shares personal insights and practical applications of perennial wisdom in modern life.
