From Freud's Paradise To The 'Real' Paradise


Analyst: What is your ulterior motive to post this status message?

Me: I think I just want to call them neurotic and psychotic in an online page, with the hope they will feel a sense of shame and stop doing their sick thing. 

Analyst: Do you get that they are very powerful and much more effective at using humiliation tactics. And you are not an expert. What if they feel pride at being called psychotic? You are writing all this in English. By their definition, you will be calling them barbarian hordes no matter what they do. You are only inviting more trouble for yourself by calling them all these for which they feel nothing. 

Me: Yeah. I get that. I know they are humiliation experts. But still this is all I can do today. I just don't want anyone to know I'm giving up the fight, even though every one knows I'm losing on a daily basis. It is just that there is overwhelming attention on the one side. There are signs that even luminaries of several fields are paying attention. There are these goons who are doing this whole humiliation and other attacks on the other side simultaneously. And then there are head masters of the world watching me and want to discipline me. 

I just don't want to fall into the habit of sleeping in a school uniform with full make up on just because the head masters are watching me. It is just a daily act of rebellion to keep my sanity. Yeah they can hire world experts and all that. But you don't have to be a specialist to know somebody is sick and what sickness that is. We just need to know what is sick. I'm not writing prescriptions or even giving professional counselling to people to feel like a quack. I leave it to certified professionals. So it is ok I guess. 

Analyst: Ok. You can instead focus your time and energy on realizing your inner powers. You are creating for yourself a false sense of putting up a fight, when in reality all this is just some entertaining rant at the max. 

Me: Yeah. Hmmm.. True. I guess I'm becoming neurotic just like them. Oh no...But it relieves every day tension to some extent that I can focus on other things. May be all this is just rationalizing. May be I can be much more stronger and focused. 

Analyst: Why are you giving yoga reference? Are you trying to convert people to another religion?

Me: Nope. I don't convert people. People can hardly call me religious in the widely accepted sense of the word. Anyways, yoga is not a religion. It is just a collection of philosophical ideas and psycho-physical practices to realize the truth expounded in those philosophies. The point of giving this particular reference is to share that there are/were world renowned psychologists who feel/felt that there are higher mental planes people can reach. 

Ok. Go ahead..


Post: 

During these 30 years, I've only moved from Freud's paradise (a region with neurotic and psychotic tendencies to power) to Adler's paradise ( a little bit cleaner, but still after the same power grip). I even have this noble goal of exploring levels above Jungian 4th level of the 7 levels. Long way to go...
