I met Kenneth as a teacher when I studied Psychosynthesis.

December 29th 2025 we will meet again. 

Our theme of Contemplation for this bodyTALKs~section will be "Death".





What is Psychosythesis?

Psychosynthesis is a psychology of self and social development that applies psychological methods to achieve greater presence, authenticity, and harmony among people, groups and societies.


Psychosynthesis is an integrative psychology that combines Eastern wisdom about the Self with Western knowledge of the unconscious. Its aim is to formulate a vision of humanity and its potential.


Essential to Psychosynthesis is Assagioli’s egg diagram, a description of the individual illustrating the interaction between our conscious and unconscious aspects.


The lower part of the diagram illustrates the lower unconscious. This corresponds to Freud’s ID and contains our basic drives, our survival and security needs.

The middle area illustrates the middle unconscious. This contains the energies, resources and values of the conscious part of our personality. This area represents our self-esteem, our need for recognition and self-actualization. It is here that we become a self-conscious person.

The upper part of the diagram illustrates the superconscious. This contains our spiritual aspect, our access to sublime creativity, to meaning, purpose, and experiences of interconnectedness.

Energies flow between the individual and the collective. Above and outside the egg diagram is the collective unconscious. Here we can access the collective ideas, images and experiences of humanity.

The conscious “I” rests in the middle of the diagram. This is our self-awareness, what we can call “the observer.” Here we gather all our psychological resources into an independent identity. Assagioli’s definition of “I” differs from that of other psychologies. He believes that the “I” is not our thoughts, feelings, or senses, but a centre of pure consciousness and will. His concept of identity is similar to that of eastern yogic philosophy.

The “I” have a field of consciousness where we become self-aware and where we can observe our thoughts, feelings, and sensations,  the so-called stream of consciousness.

The “I” is connected to the star at the top of the chart. This represents the soul or the “Transpersonal Self,” as Assagioli called it. The soul is our innermost essence, the spiritual core with which we are connected to life and awaken to our unified connectedness with humanity and nature. The soul contains our inherent goodness, truth, and beauty. It is the source of our need to make a difference in the world, the silent voice of our conscience.

Psychosynthesis is about integrating these elements in order to live a creative and meaningful life in harmonious interaction with the world.
