Paul Brunton is the pen name of Raphael Hurst (21 October 1898 – 27 July 1981), a British author of spiritual books. He is best known as one of the early popularizers of Neo-Hindu spiritualism in western esotericism, notably via his bestselling ''A Search in Secret India'' (1934) which has been translated into over 20 languages.

Brunton was a proponent of a doctrine of "Mentalism", or ''Oriental Mentalism'' to distinguish it from subjective idealism of the western tradition. Brunton expounds his doctrine of Mentalism in ''The Hidden Teaching Beyond Yoga'' (1941, new ed. 2015 North Atlantic Books), ''The Wisdom of the Overself'' (1943, new ed. 2015 North Atlantic Books) and in the posthumous publication of ''The Notebooks of Paul Brunton'' in 16 volumes (Larson Publications, 1984–88).
