anyone who wants to know the human psyche
will learn next to nothing from experimental psychology too little on one side results in too much on the other a wrong functioning of the psyche can do much to injure the body. the tragic thing is that psychology has no self-consistent mathematics at its disposal, but only a calculus of subjective prejudices there is no difference in principle between organic and psychic formations. the structure is something given, the precondition that is found to be present in every case is the mother, mother, mother. the matrix - the form into which all experience is poured; the psyche and body are not separate entities. despite the materialistic tendency to understand the psyche as a mere reflection or imprint of physical and chemical processes, there is not a single proof of this hypothesis. "in our reality the psychic cannot be anything except an effect at third hand, produced originally by physical causes; a "secretion of the brain," or something equally savoury. at the same time, this appendage of the material world is credited with the power to pull itself up by its own bootstraps, so to speak; and not only to fathom the secrets of the physical world, but also, in the form of 'mind,' to know itself. all this, without its being granted anything more than an indirect reality." the psyche creates reality every day the psyche creates reality every day the psyche creates reality every day the psyche creates reality every day a secretion of the brain a secretion of the brain a secretion of the brain a secretion of the brain the matrix - the form into which all experience is poured; the psyche and body are not separate entities. |
