15. Resumé

Psykosyntesen begyndte i 1910 da Roberto Assagioli satte sig for at udvikle en psykologi ud fra det hele menneske inkluderende den spirituelle dimension. Efter et halvt århundredes evolution, begyndte psykosyntesen at antage en sammenhængende identitet og anerkendelse inden for den vestlige psykologi.

I 1960’erne og 1970’erne begyndte psykosyntese centre at udvikle uddannelsesprogrammer, og uddannelsesplaner med godkendte afsluttende eksamener dukkede op. Det var et tegn på at psykosyntesen havde nået et niveau, hvor den kunne billedliggøres og kommunikeres som en helhed – en bred struktur med rødder i østlige og vestlige traditioner.

Tre vigtige indflydelser der har påvirket udviklingen af psykosyntese bliver diskuteret; arbejdet af Carl Jung, William James og Abraham Maslow .

Psykosyntesens vækst bliver udforsket i relation til de fire bølger inden for den vestlige psykologi; psykoanalysen , behaviorismen, humanistisk psykologi og transpersonlig psykologi. Psykosyntesen er i sin essens transpersonlig. Den omslutter elementer fra alle fire bølger, men vedbliver at have sin egen særegne identitet.

En omtale af psykosyntesen som et etableret aspekt af den fjerde bølges psykologi leder til et konkluderende afsnit hvor et psykosyntese perspektiv på spiritualitet bliver præsenteret. Influeret af raja yoga og karma yoga inkluderer psykosyntesen sindets og handlingens vej som vigtige aspekter af den spirituelle vej.
