The transpersonal enquiry arises from the untimely death of the key researcher of the Tree of Life project which had a profound impact upon the research process and the team. It created a special (transpersonal?) layer on the co-researchers’ reflexivity when analysing the transcripts of the participants, as one had to reflect from multiple perspectives of: the participants, self and the late researcher. Furthermore the shared bereavement evoked an urge for the transpersonal quest. This formed a meta-narrative dialogue in the multi-reflexivity as a point of entry to the transpersonal realm.(This paper is also written in preparation for the Transpersonal Research Colloquium 2016 on the theme of Research Models and Methods for Transpersonal Research in Northampton, 14-16 September, 2016)","PeriodicalId":92595,"journal":{"name":"Transpersonal psychology review","volume":"54 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85000912","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After summarising some of the previous research on purpose, and suggesting reasons why it is associated with well-being, this paper presents a model of different varieties of purpose, including ‘survival’, ‘self-accumulative,’ ‘altruistic/idealistic’, ‘self-expansive’ and ‘transpersonal’ purposes. Transpersonal purpose can be sub-divided further into three different aspects: spiritual development, creativity and altruism/idealism. Examples of these different aspects are given. Preliminary questionnaire-based research based on this model of varieties of purpose is summarised, suggesting that it is valid to highlight these different varieties, and that they are associated with different levels of self-reported happiness.","PeriodicalId":92595,"journal":{"name":"Transpersonal psychology review","volume":"50 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75869080","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
