Well as the name suggests it's a blend of psychology and spirituality.

There has been a lot of interest in psychotherapy circles about the so-called 'forth movement' which refers to the advent of Transpersonal Psychology. Inspired by the works of Jung, the Transpersonal Movement recognises the importance of a spiritual aspect to human psychology.

For me this approach to exploring what can be called 'the human condition' makes eminent sense - even to the rationally minded.

Human perception and experience, I would argue, lie at the heart of human behaviour. How we as individuals integrate our human drives and motivations, with our values and attitudes results in both our external behaviours and the tensions which underpin them (our self-regulation).

Those scientists who speak of the God-Gene, our genetic disposition for belief in the supernatural, still need to recognise that the very presence of this hypothesised neuro-logical driver is reflected in the behaviours in which we engage. So perhaps whether the 'reality' of a deity is a topic for metaphysics, the range of perceptions and experiences (hence behaviours) which stem from 'a belief' is very real indeed.

Being able to question the nature of our mystical (spiritual) experiences is one thing, not feeling them is something else entirely. It could be suggested that to deny some of these feelings and ways of knowing would be the same as denying our emotions. So whilst neurologists can point to the 'mirror neurons' which seem to be responsible for our feelings of 'empathy' it does not follow that 'empathy' is a fiction.

The integration of mind and body, the way we relate to ourselves, others and the Cosmos can be reduced to simple neuro-biological functions and leave us with the question 'what more is there?'
