Description:

This course will be a bridge between Buddhist and Western psychology. A comprehensive psycho-ethical system, Buddhist psychology has influenced Western psychology comparatively recently, but has contributed significant insights leading to new dimensions of wisdom and wholeness. The old adage "East is East and West is West, and never the twain shall meet" has been dispelled, as an increasing number oftherapists investigate this ancient psychology. This course is meant to stimulate further East-West study and assist in the integration of therapeutic and meditative healing modalities.
