A Dictionary of Mind and Spirit
About This Book
A Dictionary of Mind and Spirit is an invaluable reference work covering the full spectrum of psychic phenomena, spiritual traditions, altered states of consciousness, and mind-body healing. Watson's entries range across an extraordinarily broad territory — from absent healing to Zoroastrianism, from clairvoyance to Zen, from near-death experiences to the neurophysiology of trance states — and each entry is both accurate and genuinely informative rather than merely definitional.
The book is particularly valuable for students of spirituality and consciousness who want a reliable reference for the wide range of terms, traditions, and phenomena they encounter in their reading across different traditions and disciplines. It is written with the seriousness of genuine scholarship and the accessibility of someone who has deeply inhabited the subject rather than merely catalogued it from the outside.
What You'll Learn
