title: Words from the Soul: Time, East/West Spirituality, and Psychotherapeutic Narrative (Suny Series in Transpersonal and Humanistic Psychology)
author: Stuart Sovatsky
description: This is an extremely riveting, original book that makes a compelling case for a refreshingly radical understanding and practice of transpersonally oriented psychology. In challenging the tacit assumptions of basic psychotherapeutics, transpersonally oriented or otherwise, this text does what most other transpersonal theorizing falls short of doing. That is, it reveals the ways therapeutic taken-for-granted basics can work to actually undermine any therapeutic endeavor, as well as presenting an alternative outline of what a more genuine set of soteriological basics could look like, both in theory and in practice. In this way, this book opens up an exciting way of thinking about psychotherapy that has not been clearly opened up before.<br><br>This is a pioneering work that will be a fertile source of inspiration and innovation in holistic forms of psychology and psychotherapeutics into the twenty-first century.  Kenneth Bradford, Clinical Director, Maitri Psychotherapy Institute<br><br>It is a marvelous act of freedom-making, dissolving the constricting fetters of the traditional psychoanalytic view of lifes possibilities and dangers, and strikingly original and creative in its sweep and in its conception of the ultimate goals of human development.

  cosmic areas before they came to earth. Typically, once assigned to earth most
  souls do not return for additional incarnations on other worlds in between
  their lives here.
  
  
  My books, especially Destiny of Souls, detailed some of these cases. Yet, I
  had to leave out a number of them from my books because they did not fit
  properly into certain chapter narratives or were so related in content to
  others I used that I wanted to avoid a duplication of information. I tried to
  chose case histories in my books that were most illustrative of the PL and LBL
  process of soul experience. There were two other factors of case omission from
