In our days, there is a broader, widespread and fashionable tendency in psychology, or rather in popular psychology: the idea that we always get (or attract) whatever we think... Consequently, if I think positively, if I am an optimist, I shall attract events that are good for me… Read More
Any experience is first composed on non-conscious lower (I mean simply less complex) levels and then passes on to higher (only in terms of complexity) levels to be more and more refined, until it reaches a coherent form and enters our conscious mind. As a metaphor, I would suggest the image of a tall building...Read More
In eros there is a figural element: an almost metaphysic sense of deep harmony and intimacy not justifiable by the how long and how much we know the Other. Moreover, to the Other’s touch we feel our body re-configured; the Other instills beauty and power onto every one of our bodies’ cells; and a sense...Read More
The existential roots of an error in being, and of our accompanying guilt as children, can resonate within our adult time in adult situations and create tormenting feelings which can dreadfully affect our course through life. Then we may be like guilty children who failed to cope with the difficulties of growing up...Read More
...alienated past aspects of our selves, imprisoned in non-conscious regions of our being (the "Shadow"), are able to affect our present adult life, crucially and often destructively. In such cases, we suffer greatly. We start repeating in our adult present again and again what we were doing in our childhoodRead More
In everyday life we often use to identify the experience of "being in love" ("eros") with the sexual desire - and the contrary. In a way, we consider these two phenomena strongly interconnected and the one to be the cause of the other. However, does sexual desire always need, in order to emerge, the experience...Read More
I think that I can go nowhere if I start by the axiom that my self-sense and what is presented by my senses is anyway "mistaken" - "wrong". I shall immediately feel "not good enough" and guilty because I am loosing some eternal truth. So I become a child scolded by his/her parents because she/he...Read More
What does exactly mean the word "trust"? And how are we abusing it in our habitual connections? Maybe, sometimes, we use it as a tool to control the Other or as an excuse for us to play the victim? When, how, whom or what can we really trust in a meaningful way?Read More
In eros we enter an endless field of eternity, a paradise that seems never ending. However, maybe the non-existence of eternal eros and the fact that every eros has an end are very "normal" things, absolutely necessary to stay alive and able to form deep relationships of love?Read More
Why is meaningless the habitual and fashionable suggestion in our days: “If I forgive my abusers I shall heal the wounds they inflicted”? Maybe the question itself "to forgive or not" is useless, since it is "heard" differently by different aspects of our own selves?Read More
"Forgiveness" seems to be a very "hot" subject in our hypocritical consumer societies. But what might be hidden in our asking to be forgiven? Why often, when we did something that we think it is "wrong", we eagerly accept to "pay" endlessly, again and again, in order to somehow balance what we consider to be...Read More
Why sometimes comes a moment and everything breaks while we were enthusiastically marching towards our goal to radically change things in our lives, optimistic and positively thinking, fully trusting our power? What might be some hidden paradoxical aspects of the process of any change? Read More
To process this "I cannot stand it any more" we learn that either we must become aggressive and destroy what troubles us, or we have to suffer it and try to "accept" it passively by developing ourselves to remain beyond our feelings of despair, anger and sadness.Read More
