Way of Silence and the Talking Cure or Ten Minute Hips Thighs

Way of Silence and the Talking Cure: On Meditation and Psychotherapy

Author: Claudio Naranjo

Part I presents a theoretical and inter-disciplinary account of the of the classical forms of meditation. Chapters 1 and 2 tackle meditation from a trans-cultural and trans-systemic perspective, while Chapter 3 brings a similar perspective to bear on the issue of the subtle physiology of meditation and the transformation of the body in the course of the individual's spiritual evolution.

Part II considers the common ground between meditation and therapy - ranging from a theoretical understanding of the meditation/ therapy interface to the formulation of a solitary retreat methodology.

Part III, comprising a single chapter in seven sections, offers a panorama of the classical forms of meditation in the different spiritual traditions.

The integrative attitude conveyed throughout the book serves as an antidote to excessively sectarian tendencies and draws attention to the fundamental issues that underlie well known and specific forms of meditation and psychotherapy. It will be of interest to seekers, helpful to people-helpers and an inspiration to those in social situations ranging from self-help groups to educational initiatives.
