"I feel it is important for our future to make knowledge about the "technologies of the sacred" available on a large scale through mass media and create support systems for those who have spontaneous transformative experiences." (Grof in Laszlo, Grof, and Russell, 199: 62).

"We are rapidly moving from a divided and fragmented world to a unified global village. And the unlimited access we now have to the archetypal domain of the collective unconscious seems to be an important part of this process. I hope and believe that this will provide a basis for a universal religion of the future. My idea of such a religion is that it would provide a supportive context for spiritual experiences and means of facilitating them--'technologies of the sacred'--but would have no interest and investment in dictating which of the many archetypal frameworks an individual should choose as an entry into the realm of the transcendental space." (Grof in Laszlo, Grof, and Russell, 1999: 44-5)."

I don't know about that, Dr. Grof. Archetypal Revision, i.e., elimination of Old Energy Archetypes and their replacement with New Energy Archetypes, is a essential aspect of humanity's reConnection efforts. In any case, The Lightning Path provides guidance on Healing and Connection, so that people can fully reconnect. MichaelSharp (talk) 21:29, 1 December 2018 (UTC)

"Organized religions in their present form often breed dissent and contribute to the global crises. But a religion based on a genuine mystical perspective could make a real difference in the world." (Grof in Laszlo, Grof, and Russell, 1999: 41)

At the cradle of all great religions were visionary states, the transpersonal experiences of their founders--Budha's experience of enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, Mohammed's miraculous journey, or Moses' vision of Jehova in the burning bush. The Bible is full of descriptions of such experiences...." (Grof in Laszlo, Grof, and Russell, 1999: 37)

What we need today is a formulation contemporary terms that is comprehensible to ordinary people and relates to life today.(Russell in Laszlo, Grof, and Russell, 1999: 36)

What is needed is a completely new model of reality, one that includes consciousness as a fundamental aspect....(Russell in Laszlo, Grof, and Russell, 1999: 31-2)
