Brandon Thompson

Brandon Thompson is a poet, a scholar, a musician and a lover of music, and a Buddhist practitioner and teacher. He has been a transpersonal educator since 2009, serving as faculty at Sofia University (previously the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology), a world leader in transformative transpersonal education. He regularly facilitates ecstatic poetry workshops across the United States.

Brandon's current work involves bringing ecstatic poetry more fully into his life and into the world. Through his publications, scholarly writing, teaching, and workshops, Brandon is seeking to engage with ecstatic poetry as a visionary art: an art form with transformative potential and mystical underpinnings. Entering into this visionary art dialogue is at the forefront of Brandon's work at present.
