  12. Michael Murphy, Esalen's potentialist

    Before the Esalen Institute, there was Michael Murphy's family's property, a choice chunk of gorgeous Big Sur, where, in 1962, Murphy (writer, seeker) and his friend and fellow human potentialist Dick Price dedicated the Murphy land to the now 50-year-old center for the pursuit of personal and social consciousness-raising. Notables like Aldous Huxley, Abraham Maslow, Joan Baez and Henry Miller contemplated themselves and the world there. Esalen's scholarly social initiatives tend to get overlooked, while the touchy-feely stuff gets the attention. Recent staff changes, the opening of a Carmel office and putting meat — albeit organic — on Esalen's menu has some grousing about its pristine alt cred. Murphy, now director of Esalen's Center for Theory and Research, is a witty, well-schooled man who stays — there's no other word for it — centered.
