Richard Maurice Bucke

    March 18, 1837 – February 19, 1902

    Dr. Richard Maurice Bucke was a psychiatrist, adventurer, and mystic whose work on "cosmic consciousness" helped lay the groundwork for transpersonal psychology. He was instrumental in founding the Medical School of the University of Western Ontario. His exploration of higher states of awareness, influenced by thinkers like Edward Carpenter, delved into the profound spiritual experiences that shape human perception. Bucke sought to integrate these mystical insights into a more comprehensive understanding of the psyche.
