"By pathologizing holotropic
states of consciousness,
Western science has
pathologized the entire
spiritual history of humanity.
It assumed a disrespectful and
arrogant attitude toward
spiritual, ritual, and cultural life
of pre-industrial societies
throughout centuries, as well as
spiritual practice of people in our
own society." Stanislav Grof, in Psychology
of the Future - Lessons from
Modern Consciousness
