New Thinking Allowed Audio Podcast Psychological Perspectives on Initiation with Andy Hilton
Andy Hilton is author of Anthropology and Mysticism in the Making of Initiation. He is also coeditor of the anthology, Perspectives on Commoning.
Here he illuminates the psychological conversation about initiation with a description of his own initiatory experiences during a nine month period about thirty years ago. He suggests a number of concepts that shed light on such experiences: individuation, passages, liminality, and cosmic consciousness. He describes the lengthy period he spent trying to understand and integrate this experience.
New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in “parapsychology” ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980).
