＊追尋心靈成長，可別落入「多巴胺騙局」！結合神經科學、心理學與現身說法，LGAT研究專家亨特博士的警世之作。＊「轉化」與「突破」只是精心設計的幻象，人為操弄的「類躁症」才是殘酷的真相！＊「你的心靈不需要課程」影片製作人錫蘭專文推薦；桃園療養院副院長李俊宏醫師審訂、導讀。別讓你的大腦，成為他人操控的玩物！為什麼成千上萬的人願意支付高額學費，忍受羞辱與精神折磨？為什麼有的人在經歷「神聖體驗」的狂喜之後，旋即墜入地獄般的憂鬱情緒？是什麼原因，讓理性的成年人一夕之間崩潰痛哭，隨後又陷入狂喜？答案也許不是因為過於脆弱，而是人類的大腦太過努力了。風暴、日食、地震和其他「無法解釋」的現象曾被視為神的意志或超自然現象，但隨著我們對大自然的理解不斷加深，曾經是超自然的現象也能用科學方法解釋。在宗教背景或是大型團體覺察訓練（LGAT）的環境中，經歷的愛、希望、喜悅、力量、意義和超越，這種「喜悅」與「轉化」體驗 ...
