%X Transpersonal Psychology is reconstructed theoretically under aspects of William James' philosophy, one of its historic precursors, and is described in terms of its real appearance. Thereby the essential characteristic of transpersonal in relation to mainstream psychology of religion can be shown as premise of transcendence as a research axiom. The relation between both research traditions can be seen in analogy to critical psychology's relation to the mainstream.
