The Complete Guide to Psychological and Spiritual
Growth for the Nine Personality Types
This is the first book to
offer specific, practical methods for
psychological and spiritual growth to each of the
nine personality types. It integrates precise
knowledge of the nine types with wisdom teachings
from a variety of spiritual sources around the
world, including Buddhism, Christianity, Judaism,
Sufism, and Fourth Way Teachings.
This book presents the Enneagram
as "a map of the soul," laying out the
path each type can take from the outer layers of
the personality to the inner core of its True
Nature. Most importantly, Wisdom demonstrates how
the Enneagram can be used to develop Presence and
awareness, without which, meaningful spiritual
development is not possible.

"No
Enneagram teachers I've come across offer
such a rich and dynamic picture of how
each personality type expresses itself in
the world, and the process by which we can
move through progressive stages of
psychological and spiritual growth."

Transformation.
