Book Cover Beyond Individualism by Dane Rudhyar

Beyond Individualism, The Psychology of Transformation "is not a book which will come to rest within psychology. It is a book that redefines psychology—stretches it far beyond its narrow, conventional, academic and complacent limits. It is about understanding humanity and its relation to the earth...Read it to give yourself a larger set of windows to view life from."

Dr. James Fadiman, Ph.D., Stanford University

Rudhyar Institute for Transpersonal Activity Conference 1983

"The idea occurred to me shortly after the inception of RITA, that a conference honoring Rudhyar's lifetime body of work would be a very special and meaningful event for all of us whose lives Rudhyar's writings and music had touched. I suggested the idea to my friend and Rudhyar's wife, Leyla Rael, who encouraged me to discuss the possibility with Rudhyar. I did so and, with Rudhyar's support and input, the 1983 RITA Conference took place in September of that year.

It was held at Vallombrosa,a beautiful and peaceful Catholic retreat center near Rudhyar's home in Palo Alto, CA, and included presentations by Rudhyar himself, his wife Leyla, Alexander Ruperti, myself and others deeply involved in some aspect of Rudhyar's work. Over 100 people came from all over the country and the world. It was a very special gathering of those who resonated deeply with Rudhyar's message and who were nourished by the intimate setting, the presentations, and the timeless message of Rudhyar's creativity in its many forms of expression. By the end of the weekend everyone felt uplifted and inspired, including Rudhyar himself."
