Description

The Observing Self by Arthur J. Deikman This book explores the relationship between Western psychology and the mystical tradition, examining how the latter can help address fundamental questions about meaning, self, and human progress. Deikman, a psychiatrist, presents a clear and concise argument for the value of mystical insights in understanding the human experience. Through a lucid and accessible presentation, Deikman shows how the mystical tradition can provide a new perspective on the essential problems of psychology. By exploring the connections between psychology and mysticism, Deikman offers a fresh approach to understanding the human condition. The Observing Self is a thought-provoking work that challenges readers to reconsider their assumptions about the nature of the self and human existence.
