Everyday Wisdom Philosophy School

Transpersonal Psychology

This is a modern school of psychology that integrates wisdom traditions with modern psychology. Where as orthodox psychology limits its investigation to the physical body/mind with an ego as its limited consciousness, Transpersonal Psychology recognizes that there are higher states of consciousness that transcend the body/mind/ego. Transpersonal Psychology believes that integrating these higher states of consciousness into our everyday life is essential for our well-being and the sustainable evolvement of the human race in general. Transpersonal Psychology regards the human being to be on a journey of ever-expanding consciousness.

The wide and varied field of Transpersonal Psychology constitutes a significant and powerful contribution the West is giving to the path of enlightenmentand and world peace. This field includes notables such as Carl Jung, Joseph Campbell, George Gurdjieff, Rudolf Steiner, Robert Assigioli, Ken Wilber, Stanislav Groff, Abraham Maslow, Victor Frankles and many more.
