Look into Sequoia Seminars[edit]

Dr Harold Rathbun organized the Sequoia Seminars (1960 or somewaht before), which influenced the founders of the Esalen Institute (E.I.). There's a connection with Gerald Heard, a philosopher,author and renowned lecturer.

Aldous Huxley, a friend of Heard's and much influenced by him, was involved early on with E.I. The shared interest among all these persons was "human potentials", a new term at the time. 162.245.240.162 (talk) 20:11, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Callahan: 'Manual ...'[edit]

The book is questionable. The book does not cite any sources in the actual text, and there is no bibliography of the basic sources that were used.

Callahan, John F. (editor). Manual of Gestalt Practice in the Tradition of Dick Price, The Gestalt Legacy Project. September 2009. ISBN 978-1-304-96247-8 2003:E4:174C:B594:C4E7:DBEB:EE14:CC00 (talk) 07:44, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed – it's also self-published. I've removed it again. Wham2001 (talk) 06:13, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
