Psychosynthesis in Russia
Members of the Transcultural Network and those of us closely involved with
Psychosynthesis in Russia would like to share with you some of the joys
and satisfactions we have experienced helping our Russian colleagues bring
an integral humanistic and spiritual approach to their people's struggle.
Our hearts have broadened, our lives enriched, by being part of this
project of international exchange. We would like to invite you to join
us.
The International School for Psychotherapy, Counseling and Group
Leadership in St. Petersburg, Russia is at the growing edge of
Psychosynthesis. Our Russian friends at Harmony (the parent
organization of the school) have overcome many obstacles and have
successfully created a school that brings soul into the fields of
medicine, psychological and social services, education, and business. Its
aim is to teach professionals and educators in the human service field so
they may in turn help the people of their nation move away from
totalitarian thinking and repression, and toward freedom, creative
Self-expression, and peace.
As a fulfilment of Assagioli's vision of Global Psychosynthesis,
individuals and groups from the US and other countries have joined
together in support of this important work in the former Soviet Union.
Without their contribution of time and money raised, the success of this
project would be literally impossible.
It is easy to take for granted the educational opportunities in spiritual
psychology and change technology which are available to us. Many
professionals in Russia are now eager to learn new and effective ways to
make the necessary changes to improve conditions in their country. Since
1952 over 5,000 people attended a training program given by Harmony or the
School. They in turn have touched the lives of many more people. Because
Russia is still unstable and there is little capital for people to pursue
education outside of government control, our help is still needed. If you
are interested in joining us and becoming a part of this team for
supporting Global Psychosynthesis, here is what you could do:
- Donations of money, books, videos, computers are greatly needed.
- Support a student at the school. Half scholarships are $225 (US) a year (less than $20 a
month).
- Join the supporting organization, the Transcultural Network.
- Put your name on a mailing list to receive a periodic newsletter reporting on the programs
of the school and conditions in Russia.
- Keep this project in your thoughts, prayers, and meditations.
All donations are tax-deductible. Checks can be made out to: Uniterra
