I like to start with some reflections from my personal experience, for who revises the book I have a general idea about myself, and therefore buying the scope and limits of my thinking.
Some years ago I met a Falun Dafa spiritual practitioner, I approached myself out of curiosity, I was interested in emphasizing the cultivation of the principles Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and that included meditation exercises, I never really imagined how good it was for my life. Along with this, many of the scientific knowledge with which I was familiarizing, as well as I did in my daily life began to make sense, I seemed to discover a truth I had always known.
At the same time, observing the disorientation of those who for the first time we came into contact with the transpersonal movement, we decided to synthesize and systematize some things with which I found myself. Only something basic, that would allow each one to follow its own way with an overview. Unexpectedly this project was creating, it gave me the impression that it was no longer just about transpersonal psychology, but that I was facing a whole transpersonal world that covered practically all areas of life.
But I am aware of my limitations, the idea is that this document serves only as a source of references, where it is manifest a summary of the main characters and theoretical models of the transpersonal movement. In fact, most sources of information are accessible via the internet, and so it was easy for the reader in contrast to what was written with the sources.
The text has been divided into several sections: in the first part give an overview of the transpersonal movement; Then I will briefly describe the religious and philosophical background; To dedicate a final and main section to describe some of the scientific currents of the Transpersonal World.
The first chapters describe knowledge of general culture through a more relaxed and reflective narrative that helps to understand the ideas that are at the base of the transpersonal movement; Instead the last part describes how the transpersonal movement has been expressed in diverse currents and scientific disciplines, therefore uses a more rigorous language and is rich in quotations or references. Written on the contrary, as a journey from the subtle to the concrete, from the spirit to the applied sciences.
Before this, I must make a warning, I hope that each of my words is an open question, otherwise it will not result to the reader so profitable. I do not take a privileged point of view, nor do I intend to show the vision of a specialist in each subject, nor do I pretend to be exhaustive or meticulous; Only from my humble position as a member of the human family, I tried to make sense of all this great cultural avalanche, which I call the transpersonal movement. Actually, this venture, is only a bit of sand ... is not an individual adventure or isolated, quite the contrary, as you see throughout the book many boys have participated in the construction of the transpersonal world.
