This book shows approaches in handling psychological conflicts that prevent one's capacity to live more fully and have more meaningful relationships, and which also prevents the deepening of one's spiritual practices. Through detailed descriptions of proven procedures, the reader will find in this book approaches towards the elimination of fears, resentments, hatreds, depression, worries, traumas, and stress in daily living. Using awareness as its basic tool, the process not only effectively deals with emotional and physical distresses, but mental difficulties that obstruct meditation and the pursuit of spiritual practices.
Vicente Hao Chin, Jr. has been conducting the Self-Transformation Seminar in many countries including United Kingdom, Australia, India, Philippines, Singapore, Pakistan, and Malaysia. He has published several books on meditation and spirituality, including the chronological edition of The Mahatma Letters to A.P. Sinriett. He is the President of the Theosophical Society in the Philippines and editor of Theosophical Digest. He was the former President of the Indo-Pacific Federation of the Theosophical Society. He has also initiated the establishment of schools that envision the integration of self- transformation and academic learning.
This book was originally intended as a manual for facilitators T of the Self-Transformation Seminar that my colleagues and I have been conducting for many years in Asia, Australia and Europe. At the request of seminar participants to have reading materials from the seminar, the book is now being made available to the general reader, and the materials for facilitators have been put into a separate manual.
The Self-Transformation Seminar receives very encouraging feedback from participants in many countries. It is attended by a wide spectrum of people, including executives, professionals, educators, parents, young people, community development workers, government employees and peace workers. Many feel that it is not only highly relevant to their present life situations but it also opens up new dimensions in life to which they had never before given serious thought. Heartwarming feedback that we often hear is "I should have learned this when I was younger."
Many schools and universities request that the seminar be given to their administrators, faculty and students. Religious organizations, nongovernment organizations, professional groups and private companies similarly request the seminar because of its positive effect on the lives of participants.
Although people who have not attended the seminar can learn the principles of the process presented in the seminar by reading this book, we encourage them to discuss the book with groups or facilitators to ensure that they fully understand the different practices suggested in this book, especially the self-awareness processing that is crucial to the entire program. Wherever feasible, we recommend that readers participate in one of the Self-Transformation Seminars.
