i don’t know
My intrinsic nature, my extended Self . . . Sounds good, but what if one doesn’t know everything? I went in there with that attitude, and realized there’s stuff there, things happening! All kinds of stuff, not just the bad. Something more complex is going on in there: I can feel the motion, flows, potential…

The beyond
So, as far as levels go, and having to deal with them, the basic one may be the material world/body, and the mind/soul. Extremists may say you are either one or the other. Others will speak of the problems of being in the material level, rather than the spiritual. Washburn’s triphasic idea was interesting: one…

My life orientation
With the Life World within the Greater World, I can think a bit differently about my life directions and what they mean. Within this active approach, its more than just the typical person dealing with the nasty, the unconscious, but the enhanced with better understandings. I’m at the level of the extended self now, no…

from the domains on
I see my understandings, experiences, have moved along in a variety of ways. In the “Domains of Perception,” I seemed to be thinking of the inputs and outputs, that are related to one another, giving an experience, perception, (like manas and buddhi), also resulting in “Self-Awareness,” (like ahamkar). I also started having various options, ideas,…

Site or sight?
I would say I got the psychology down to the way I want it . . . the active part of consciousness, intent and the figure/ground, the Life World within the Greater World. Going with the flow of the more core elements, the intrinsic, the True Self and awareness. Moving beyond the physical/mental context, a…

in summary
The “colloquial psychoanalysis” is just the start . . . Moving past those “internal/ external elemental orientations,” then ego . . . needed these bottom levels explained . . . Being Freudian, there was only that lower “animal” element, sex, and one needed to be civilized and rational . . . that “reptilian brain,” and…

THIS WOrld of form and energy
So, starting with the more active part of the mind, within our “intermediate” level, “interconnected and with activations,” which are more sane and real, Intent, in focus with clarity.
