	ITP \| Transpersonal Psychology
		Transpersonal psychology is the future norm in psychology, as yet unrecognized by the mainstream.
		Transpersonal psychology is largely inclusive of and builds on the psychoanalytic, behavioral/experimental, and humanistic psychologies that preceded it.
		Further, transpersonal psychology recognizes that not only are there different states of consciousness that one may move into and out of during the course of a day but that there are also stages or stations of consciousness that, through development, one can come to live in relatively permanently.

		Transpersonal psychologists, however, disagree with the approach to such phenomena taken by other schools of psychology, and claim that have typically been dismissed either as signs of various kinds of mental illnesses or regression to infantile stages of psychosomatic development.
		One must not confuse transpersonal psychology with parapsychology- a mistake frequently made due to the unenviable academic "reputation" of both branches and eerie atmosphere surrounding the subjects of investigation of respective disciplines.
		All transpersonal psychologies, whichever their differences, share one basic contention: they claim that human beings possess the supraegoic centre of consciousness that is irreducible to all known states of empirical, or, better, "ordinary" consciousness (sleep, waking state,...).

	Introduction to Transpersonal Psychology
		Although transpersonal psychology is a branch of psychology, it recognises the importance of a non-parochial and integrative approach in which other disciplines are acknowledged to have their own contributions to make in our combined explorations of the transpersonal.
		Although transpersonal psychology represents a paradigm shift in consciousness, science and culture, it seeks to distance itself from the kind of uncritical adoption of New Age beliefs that characterises certain elements of the so-called counter culture.
		Transpersonal psychology has very little, if anything, to do with crystals, UFOs, alien abduction, chakras, auras, fairies, psychism, aromatherapy, levitation, fire-walking, or the millennium, except as these phenomena, practices or experiences may be investigated in terms of their transformational consequences.

	Transpersonal psychology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		These authors define transpersonal psychology as being the branch of psychology that is concerned with transpersonal experiences and related phenomena, noting that "These phenomena include the causes, effects and correlates of transpersonal experiences, as well as the disciplines and practices inspired by them" (Walsh and Vaughan, 1993, p203).
		Transpersonal psychology is sometimes confused with parapsychology, a mistake made due to the overlapping and unconventional research interests of both fields; parapsychology would however tend to focus more in its subject matter on the "psychic" and transpersonal psychology the "spiritual" (relatively crude though these categorizations are, it is still a useful distinction in this context).
		Transpersonal psychology is also sometimes confused with the New Age.

	What is Transpersonal Psychology?
		At the same time, I would add that transpersonal psychology's primary focus is not (or should not be) on states of consciousness, per se, but on the meaning of such states for individuals and their communities and on "the ground out of which all states arise" (Walsh and Vaughan, 1993b, p.
		Transpersonal psychology has been criticized for emphasizing this oneness at the expense of diversity, and this criticism should be heard.
		Transpersonal psychology is not a specific set of beliefs or a religion, but rather an orientation that is compatible with most educational and psychological approaches.

	Essay2: Transpersonal Psychology at a Crossroads
		It is argued that transpersonal psychology is essentially height psychology, and that depth psychological approaches to the transpersonal are defective.
		The claim of depth psychology that spirit is hiding in the depth of the unconscious is outdated and should be reconsidered in the light of current knowledge.
		Psychology started as we all do, at the level of the instincts; it will be completed as we all will, at the level of spirit.

	Transpersonal Psychology and Spiritual Wisdom Traditions by John Davis
		The overlap of psychology and the spiritual wisdom traditions is both a central focus of transpersonal psychology and an area ripe for further development.
		Transpersonal psychology is the field of psychology which integrates psychological concepts, theories, and methods with the subject matter and practices of the spiritual disciplines.
		Just as health psychology applies psychology to medical and health care concerns or school psychology applies psychology to school settings, transpersonal psychology applies psychology to a specific range of concerns, e.g., spirituality, optimal mental health, nonduality, and the qualities of nonreactive presence and awareness.

	transpersonal (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Transpersonal psychology is the study of the whole human being - intellect, emotions, body, spirit, creativity and community.
		Transpersonal psychology looks beyond the limitations of space and time (as understood in western culture) that are used to dismiss questions of nonmaterial connection, and instead looks to nonwestern approaches to the human psyche and the vanguard of nonpsychological disciplines (such as the new physics) for ways to formulate its questions.
		Typical areas of study in transpersonal psychology include mind-body relationships, the effects of meditation and various physical disciplines, dreams, transformative experiences, altered states of consciousness, paranormal experience, pre- and peri-natal and post-death experience, nonlocal phenomena and and archetypal determinants of human behavior.

	AHP - A GUIDE TO HUMANISTIC PSYCHOLOGY
		Transpersonal psychology started off within humanistic psychology, and then became more distinct, with its own separate journals and conferences.
		Transpersonal experiences involve an expansion or extension of consciousness beyond the usual ego boundaries and beyond the limitations of time and space.
		It is very important, however, not to fall into the one-two-three-infinity theory of the transpersonal, where we say that one is the body, two is the emotions, three is the intellect, and everything beyond that is one great mish- mash called "the transpersonal".
