Title: The Wisdom of the Enneagram Pdf The Complete Guide to Psychological and Spiritual Growth for the Nine Personality Types
Recommended by two highly credible authorities, consciousness explorer Ken Wilber and spiritual-growth guru Harville Hendrix, this compendium of Enneagram information was assembled by the cofounders of the Enneagram Institute as an introduction to the subject. Designed with a plenitude of charts, boxes, and quotes (by noted illuminaries such as A.H. Almaas, Maya Angelou, and G.I. Gurjieff), this exceptionally easy-to-use, manual-size paperback teaches the reader how to figure out which of the nine types she is, identifies red flags to self-illusion, and provides practical suggestions for spiritual growth. Advice on how to observe your type's fixations and let go of the need to act out automatic and dysfunctional behavioral responses are down-to-earth and attainable. A distinctly accessible approach to cultivating daily happiness through understanding the complexity of fixations that weave together human personality types. --Randall Cohan "The Wisdom of the Enneagram is a very important book. By combining the horizontal types of the Enneagram with a system of vertical levels of awareness, Riso and Hudson have produced one of the first truly integrated models of the human psyche. In addition to the importance of this pioneering work itself, it goes to point up the utter inadequacy of anything less than a full-spectrum model of human growth and development. Highly recommended."--Ken Wilber, author of The Marriage of Sense and Soul"I highly recommend this book, not only to anyone on the path of personal transformation, but to anyone who wants to understand the complex inner world of others, whether a spouse, family member co-worker or friend. The questionnaires were fun and illuminating. I received some very helpful information about myself, felt challenged to grow and experienced a deepening of compassion. Perhaps the most profound contribution of The Wisdom of the Enneagram is reflected in the word "Wisdom." The authors clearly communicate the complexity of human nature, the spiritual yearning resonant in all of us, and the ascending levels of our possibility. But they do not leave us there. They offer a clear path for personal and spiritual evolution."--Harville Hendrix, Ph.D., author of Getting the Love You Want"Don Riso and Russ Hudson thoughtfully engage the richness and depth of the Enneagram, and conjure with its power as a tool of transformation. The Wisdom of the Enneagram is filled with its own wisdom and depth. You'll find yourself returning to it over and over again and discovering new treasures."--Tony Schwartz, author of What Really Matters"The Wisdom of the Enneagram is not only a clear and comprehensive description and discussion of this ancient personality typology, but also a major and original contribution to its use and further development. Don Riso and Russ Hudson have designed simple practical guidelines and tests that make it possible to determine one's own personality type and use this knowledge for healing and psychospiritual transformation."--Stanislav Grof, M.D., author of The Adventure of Self-Discovery
The ancient symbol of the Enneagram has become one of today's most popular systems for self-understanding, based on nine distinct personality types. Now, two of the world's foremost Enneagram authorities introduce a powerful new way to use the Enneagram as a tool for personal transformation and development.

Highly accessible, yet filled with sophisticated concepts and techniques found nowhere else, The Wisdom of the Enneagram is a strikingly new fusion of psychology and spirituality. It offers an exciting vision of human possibility and a clear map of the nine paths to our highest self-expression.
This book changed my life. The enneagram has been along for a very long time and I am surprised I haven't heard about it until now. I have read so many self help books thru out my life and I never was told about this. I think it would have saved me years of searching for the right book if I had found it sooner. Once I found out which personality I was my life started to make so much sense and I was relieved to find out that my childhood was how I developed into this personality and that I could change my life if I wanted. The knowledge this book gave me about myself was spot on and it taught me how to think differently to get out of the old patterns I had developed and is making me a better person that I wanted to be. I did it for myself nobody else and I am happy I read this and I going to keep incorporating thisinto my life as it does take awhile to change old patterns but is can be done and you will be happier when you do. It is definitely a must read if you want to change or understand yourself better because change only comes with knowledge.Personality: from disorders to enlightenment Now I finally, really understand the Enneagram. The missing piece for me was that the instinct (default emotion) for care-givers, go-getters, and individualists is shame rather than sadness. I love that it gives a scale for how each type evolves. These personality types (identified in the 1950s) are now backed by neuroscience. What we value (control, connection, certainty) determines where your attention is directed. The brain likes to specialize in a "de-fault" emotion: anger (control), shame (connection), and fear (certainty). Anyone who wants to understand personality from disorders to enlightenment should read this book or learn about the Enneagram!Fully featured introduction into The Enneagram of Personality Very useful - if used. I was reading a Richard Rohr's "Falling Upward" when he referenced the use of an Enneagram. I was intrigued. Looked it up, bought the book, typed my personality using the Enneagram method then, went the extra, and confirmed type by filling the type assessment by filling out a 140 question assessment online at a recommended website. Very good insight into personality type(s).From Wikipedia - "The Enneagram of Personality has been widely promoted in both business management and spiritual contexts through seminars, conferences, books, magazines, and DVDs.In business contexts it is generally used as a typology to gain insights into workplace dynamics; in spirituality, it is more commonly presented as a path to higher states of being, essence, and enlightenment. It has been described as a method for self-understanding and self-development."
