One of the first times I had this experience was during a meditation retreat when I suddenly felt a soft stirring on top of my head, then my awareness fell silent without a thought crossing my mind \u2013 just an immense silent space of tranquility \u2013 next came a widening, or expansion, of my awareness that liberated me from the feeling of being confined in a physical-psychological container, and I experience myself instead as being pure energy. I was transcending the physical, emotional and mental realms, and I felt a great surge of joy and freedom at the expansion of my being. I felt as if I was looking down from above on my personal identity as Kenneth and seeing how this \u201creflection\u201d of my true self (or persona) was living in a dimension of familiar worries and limitations that now seemed so small and insignificant.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this transcendent state, I was not thinking or feeling \u2013 there was just a direct knowing, a sense of lightness, and a recognition of my self as an energy-being of light and purpose. I was still me \u2013 a sense of individuality was still present \u2013 but there was also a sense that this \u2018me\u2019 was on a mission and that there was a direction in my life. I realised that I was a centre of purpose, or a force field, a particle on a journey in a limitless space of consciousness, being connected to the whole in the most intimate way possible.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is how Assagioli explains this experience of transcendence: \u201cIn\u00a0genuine\u00a0expansion of consciousness, there is no complete loss of self-awareness of the spiritual Self as\u00a0centre. It can be compared to a sphere which can expand\u00a0indefinitely;\u00a0but the Centre of the sphere remains. There is the paradoxical impression of not losing oneself, but being more oneself, while losing the empirical limitations of the ego. It is a\u00a0synthesis\u00a0of individuality and universality. The individual feels identified with the universe, but there remains some awareness that he is identified with the universe.\u201d (2)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From the perspective of transcendence, it seems obvious that there is a significant difference between the contracted consciousness of the ego (the conscious \u201cI\u201d) and that of the Transpersonal Self. There are many other observations that could be made about this experience \u2013 and I write about them in my book <em>Integral Meditation <\/em>(3), where I share my meditative experiences through the lens of psychosynthesis.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bg5NrLnTiow?si=ll5C3FnEQo-9Cro2\" width=\"100%\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Transpersonal Self in the superconscious<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this brief article, I am focusing on the transcendence of the Transpersonal Self; I want to explain why Assagioli placed the Transpersonal Self in the realm of the superconscious, as depicted in his well-known egg-diagram (4). The egg-diagram is not merely symbolic, Assagioli was certain of the reality of the higher Transpersonal Self, with which we can become united by transcending our identifications with mental, emotional and physical experiences and ascending towards the superconscious.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let me share a couple of quotes by Assagioli to illustrate my point:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe spiritual Self is a transcendent, glorious reality, and one can have direct, immediate proof of it, that is, one can\u00a0<em>experience<\/em>\u00a0It.\u201d (5)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Self, the \u2018Soul\u2019, the true spiritual Centre, is, in both nations and individuals,\u00a0<em>superconscious<\/em>. It does exist, but in a realm or at a level that is ordinarily above the reach of the personal consciousness.\u201d\u00a0(6)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis Self is above, and unaffected by, the flow of the mind-stream or bodily conditions.\u201d (7)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe transpersonal Self is \u2018outside\u2019 time and above it. It exists and lives in the dimension of the Eternal.\u201d (8)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These quotes make it clear that, according to the experience of Assagioli and millions of others in the many religious traditions, our true Self (Soul, Atman, Tao, The Void, Suchness, The Immovable Mover, The Omega Point) is a transcendent being. In other words, we are each a spiritual being living in a transcendent realm having a human experience. This transcendent realm, or heavenly dimension, is an ontological world according to the perennial philosophy, part of which has been called The Great Chain of Being. In my article <em>Why Assagioli Put a Star in the Sky<\/em> (9), I offer many quotes from Assagioli to show how he supports this concept.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Transpersonal Self does not descend to the personal levels<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Transpersonal Self, or Soul, cannot be wounded; it is untouched by trauma, it is the unchangeable permanent loving observer in all of us \u2013 a fact it is well-worth being reminded of. In an article containing an illuminative conversation with Assagioli, <em>The Transcendence of the Self<\/em>, he states the following:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Self, from a certain point of view, is the highest level of transcendence we can achieve. The difference is this: that the Self does not itself become immanent. The Self radiates in the superconscious but remains at its level. The Self does not become immanent in the sense that I have said. We could eventually achieve Self-consciousness, but that&#8217;s another thing. Then it is the personal self or ego that rises like a spider on the web and identifies with the Self. But it is not the Self that becomes immanent. That&#8217;s the difference. But the Self is not \u2018other\u2019; it is always present, and the personal self is a direct reflection of it, and in a very weak way reflects its nature.\u201d (10)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Assagioli is saying that the Transpersonal Self does not enter the domain of the lower or middle unconscious but remains at the superconscious level. At this level, the Transpersonal Self radiates the superconscious qualities of love, joy and power, which can and do descend to the levels of the conscious \u201cI\u201d, providing us with deep insight and peak experiences. The conscious \u201cI\u201d, or observer, is the representative of the Transpersonal Self, being a projection, or reflection, of its source \u2013 something Assagioli explains in this way:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Self is an\u00a0<em>ontological Reality<\/em>, a\u00a0<em>Being<\/em>, and is on Its own level a stable Centre of Life, from which It radiates energies. The personal self, the self-conscious \u201cI\u201d is a projection or reflection of the Self into the normal human level.<br \/><br \/>\u201cAn analogy may help understanding, although, as are all analogies, it is only approximate and partial. The relationship between the spiritual or transpersonal Self and the personal self, or \u201cI\u201d, can be compared to that between the Sun and a planet, let us say the Earth. From the sun emanate many and powerful radiations, which affect the planet and all the living beings on it, producing the conditions for\u00a0evolution, development, growth. In the same way the Self projects a small portion, a spark, a tiny centre of self-consciousness.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201c<\/em><em>This<\/em>\u00a0self grows in self-awareness, intelligence, power to act, etc., under the combined influence of \u2018nourishment\u2019 from the environment, the soil where it exists, and from the vivifying impact of the descending energies radiated by the Self. One might say that the Self becomes aware through the [personal] self of what exists and occurs at the personal levels (physical \u2013 emotional \u2013 mental). The personal self, in its turn, becomes aware of the Self in two ways:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li>By opening itself\u00a0<em>consciously to<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>recognizing<\/em>\u00a0the radiation\u00a0<em>from<\/em>\u00a0the Self.<\/li>\r\n<li>By rising towards and eventually contacting and merging partially with the Self.\u201d (11)<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is important to stress that the Transpersonal Self is not a thing, an object in the sky separated from our essential being. The Transpersonal Self is always \u201cme\u201d, never something other, always the loving observer and powerful actor, however, the realisation and identification with our centre as \u201cpure self-awareness and will\u201d undergoes many radical expansions, transformations, awakenings and realisations.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is so much more to say about the relation of the conscious \u201cI\u201d to the Transpersonal Self, but that must be the focus of the next article. Please, do investigate the collection of quotes by Assagioli that I have compiled here (12), and please make use of my seven free meditations, which you can use as a means to connect with the Transpersonal Self.
