As a philosophical field, transpersonal psychology tends towards a position of freedom, love, and overcoming feelings of personal isolation, where the philosophical beliefs of the West and the East are studied and practiced with equal interest.

Transpersonal psychology has become an opposition to behaviorism, psychoanalysis, and humanism. In psychotherapy, methods typical of religious practices are widely used: working with attention, breathing practices; refusing to eat and drink, abstinence, staying in isolation while maintaining physical activity; dance practices, running, strength yoga; swimming in ice water, walking in snow, prolonged stay in the sauna; choral chanting,etc. chanting mantras, playing musical instruments, listening to the sounds of nature; meditation, etc.

The main disadvantage of discipline is that it gives free rein to charlatans and quick-money lovers. Therefore, we try to introduce our viewers to the luminaries, respected researchers in the community, and masters of this field of psychology.

Transpersonal psychology is a branch of psychology that studies transpersonal experiences, altered states of consciousness, and religious experiences, combining modern psychological concepts, theories, and methods with traditional spiritual practices of the East and West. The first person to talk about the "transpersonal unconscious" was C. Jung. As an independent branch of psychological science, transpersonal psychology was formed in the late 1960s as one of the areas of humanistic psychology. The founders of this direction were well-known philosophers, psychologists and psychotherapists A. Maslow, E. Sutich, S. Grof, A. Watts, M. Murphy and others.

Transpersonal experiences include two broad groups: the expansion of experiences within " objective reality "and the expansion of experiences beyond"objective reality". First group: embryo and fetal experiences, ancestral experiences, evolutionary experiences, past incarnation experiences, foresight, identification with other beings, oneness with everything in the world. The second group: spiritual experience, archetypal and mythical experiences, merging with the Universal Consciousness, comprehending the Great Void, etc
. A feature of transpersonal psychology is the integration of various schools of psychology. Various schools of transpersonal psychology are considered only models or "territory maps" that seek to describe some often very limited aspect of reality, but cannot claim equivalence with reality itself.
