Research findings show that endorsing a religion is to some extent related to positive health outcomes and other additional benefits linked to individuals’ psychological sphere. Although an association between religion and Subjective Well-Being (SWB) has been established by previous studies, comparative investigations in the European context are limited.

Attachment and spirituality are thought to have deep evolutionary roots but are always interpreted within the framework of culture, religion and personal beliefs.

Contemporary perspectives in psychology and education characterize ideal students as rational and in control of their thinking and actions. The good student is often described as intentional, cognitive, metacognitive, critical, and reflective. I begin with a brief history of control and ratio- nality to establish how “The Tradition” is deeply rooted in philosophy, religion, and, in gen- eral, the story of Western civilization.

One highly conspicuous crop of examples of mental phenomena related to the non-existent is of course yielded by our experience of works of art. It is therefore somewhat surprising that Meinong himself does not apply his theory of non-existent objects to the working out of a detailed theory of the ontology and psychology of aesthetic phenomena. This task was however carried out by one of his most prominent disciples, Stephan Witasek, in his masterly Grundzüge der allgemeinen A " sthetik of 1904.

The fifth section of the article turns away from religion itself to the psychology of individual people to see whether this area of social science offers a better explanation for the fanaticism of the ‘holy warriors’ than some presumed religious causes or inspirations. This discussion focuses on the issue of how identity affects their views of the link between god and war. It pays special attention to the work of Erik Erikson. The final section of the article returns us to the first main point.

In my professional life I have been asked many times the simple question: What is transpersonal psychology, counselling or psychotherapy? The answer is straightforward: it is a broad transcultural theory of human nature that posits that human beings are more than physical and psychological beings, with some form of spirituality being a reasonable bet. Oh, and by the way, it is also a discrete field of study that could be conceived as having had about 40 years of academic recognition.

Reflective practice can be an important tool in practice-based professional learning settings where individuals learning from their own professional experiences, rather than from formal teaching or knowledge transfer, may be the most important source of personal professional development and improvement.

The book I have had the privilege of translating is, undoubtedly, one of the most remarkable studies of the social and psychological condition of the modern world which has appeared in Europe for many years, and its influence is sure to be lasting and far reaching.

But the philosophical and religious works of his later years have met with a somewhat indifferent reception. They have been much talked about, simply because they were his work, but, as...
