The Master Mind of the Self-Actualizing Person by Roman Gelperin

By Book Goodies Leave a Comment

Enlightenment!—You may spend your whole life seeking it, but never find it. You may never search for it or even know that it’s possible, but reach it by accident. And you may live out your life ignorant of its existence, and die having never discovered your highest potential for happiness, self-mastery, and creative brilliance.

The enlightened psychologist Abraham Maslow was the first to scientifically describe the fully enlightened person—which he called the “self-actualizing person.” Building on Maslow’s work through careful biographical study of the lives of self-actualizing people, humanistic psychologist and biographer Roman Gelperin found their enlightenment to stem from a nearly-identical handful of breakthrough experiences, which he will reveal to you in this book.

Partly a firsthand account of the author’s own accidental enlightenment, and partly a full biography of Abraham Maslow’s journey to self-actualization, this book will teach you how to identify, understand, and attain those key experiences of:

– Unlocking the perennial method of using your mind to its fullest potential

– Being fully at peace with yourself, by deconstructing your internal conflicts

– Deriving a near-constant joy, pleasure, and satisfaction from sheer existence

– Half-creating, half-discovering your driving passion and unique purpose in life

– Automatically evolving the self-actualizing qualities of total honesty, supreme self-confidence, natural creativity, effortless spontaneity, and independent thinking

By the end of this book, you will thoroughly understand what enlightenment is, how and why it occurs, and the ways to pursue it!

Experiencing the state of enlightenment Abraham Maslow described personally. Then becoming able to recognize it in other people. Then realizing I can explain that state in other people through describing my own experiences in deep introspective detail.

Book Sample
In the late autumn of 2009, while slowly recovering from a harrowing spine injury, I was suddenly rocketed into a state of pure self-actualization. I was nineteen at the time, a sophomore psychology student at Stony Brook University; and for the next year and a half, until I dropped out of college at the end of my third year, I experienced a near-uninterrupted state of the most ecstatic enlightenment—the kind few philosophers, sages, and mystics across all history rarely attain.
From a highly neurotic, insecure, intellectually confused adolescent—rife with anxieties, self-reproaches, dishonesty, laziness, and incessant self-doubt—I was transformed into an utterly confident, profoundly driven, totally guilt-free human being—possessing radiant intellectual clarity, unblemished honesty, and a bulletproof self-esteem.
During this transformation, I could gaze back at my former psychological malaise with a god’s-eye view. The doors to my mind’s full potential were thrown asunder. I was supremely cognizant of the person I was before, of everything that had changed in me, and of why it had changed. I was able to glean the most dazzling truths about the human mind, to independently reach the most earth-shattering insights into human nature. And having solved all my own psychological problems, I felt I had the ability to solve anyone’s, that I had discovered the single root cause of the worst of humanity’s ills, and that I—and perhaps I, alone—held the cure.
That now became my mission in life: to help others reach the same enlightenment I did, to teach mankind the path to unlocking its full potential. I was supremely confident in myself and in my ability to change the whole world. I felt mentally, intellectually, emotionally, inferior to no man. I became happiness incarnate. I was going to tear through all obstacles. Nothing would stop me from reaching my goal: the one task fate had chosen me—and only me—for, and that nobody else could do.
And then, in the summer of 2011, my self-actualization vanished as quickly as it had come. I did make some definite gains, to be sure; and I still remembered everything that happened to me. But I suddenly felt, in the worst possible sense of the word, normal. I thought I’d emerged from my psychological malaise as a completely new type of human being; but now, I found many of my old qualities returning—my laziness, my inhibitions, a whole spectrum of negative emotions. I was no longer a being of sheer happiness. I felt tossed out of my private psychological paradise, the gates shutting behind me, leaving me clawing at its threshold, desperately trying to get back in.
Looking back at those blissful one-and-a-half years, I’m still amazed at the tremendous potential temporarily unlocked in me—the acuity of my mind, the power of my intuition, and the ability to act effortlessly, confidently, spontaneously, in the face of all circumstances—a state of being I never before thought possible, and which I can hardly believe happened to me even now.
Shortly after my fall, having been banished from paradise, I embarked on an intellectual quest to discover what made me so different during those one-and-a-half years, a quest to find out what I’d really been like, and a quest to find my way back to that lost paradise—when I soared to the highest reaches of human potential, when the brightest happiness flowed exuberantly from my being, when my mind danced through the eternal universe with exultant ease. This book, and especially this first chapter, is the successful product of that quest—and, maybe, the start of yours. Enjoy.
