13. Anthony Sutich, in the first issue of the Journal of Transpersonal Psychology (Spring, 1969) defines transpersonal psychology as:
“The title given to an emerging force in the psychology field by a group of psychologists and professional men and women from other fields who are interested in those ‘ultimate’ human capacities and potentialities that have no systematic place in positivistic or behavíoristíc theory (‘first force’), classical psychoanalytic theory (‘second force’), or humanistic psychology (‘third force’). The emerging transpersonal psychology (‘fourth force’) is concerned specifically with the ‘empirical’, scientific study, and responsible implementation, of the findings relevant to becoming, individual and species-wide meta-needs, ultimate values, unitive consciousness, peak experiences, B values, ecstasy, mystical experience, awe, being, self-actualization, essence, bliss, wonder, ultimate meaning, transcendence of the self, spirit, oneness, cosmic awareness, individual and species-wide synergy, maximal interpersonal encounter, sacralization of everyday life, maximal sensory awareness, responsiveness and expression, and related concepts, experiences and activities.”
