Instead, nearly 500,000 people showed up to hear Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and the Who, transforming the festival into an iconic -- and some say spiritual -- event that still resonates in America.

    Michael Murphy is one of the most inspiring integral thinkers and pioneers of our day. As founder of the Esalen Institute, Michael has befriended the best and the brightest evolutionary leaders for over forty years in fields from bodywork to philosophy. On a personal level, he always seeks the next edge of human potential, from building citizen diplomacy programs to creating the Esalen Center for Theory & Research to explore frontier subjects such as the survival of bodily death, subtle energies, and integral capitalism. With George Leonard, he's also created Integral Transformative Practice to empower people in their personal journey. In this radio show with Stephen Dinan, Michael explores “Integral Evolution” as a synthesis of his lifework and his books such as The Future of the Body – a synthesis that is both scholarly and practical.

    The Esalen Archives Of Extraordinary Human Functioning

    These archives are designed to support inquiry of the kind pioneered by William James, Frederic Myers, Marghanita Laski, Herbert Thurston, Abraham Maslow and others into extraordinary human functioning. Beginning in 1976, Michael Murphy, James Hickman, Margaret Livingston, Steven Donovan, Dulce Murphy, and others began to collect materials related to such inquiry from scientific and scholarly journals, dissertations, and other sources. The materials contained in this collection were drawn from experimental, anthropological, and scholarly research studies, as well as from the lore of contemplative, martial arts, athletic, and other practices.
