Abstract
Proposes to expand the scope of transactional analysis by incorporating theoretical concepts developed in other psychological approaches. Discusses C. Jung's ideas of the unconscious and of intuition as examples which would enable TA to reach beyond the limits derived from E. Berne's formulations. Psychic conversations with Jung and S. Freud are reported, and a personal meditation experience of a conversation with Berne is described.
