The first s...Thank you Julia for your honesty here. The first step of getting out of an abusive situation is really able to identify that it really is just that. Your post here helped me to feel a little bit more normal as I am only seven weeks away from finishing my final semester and at every moment wondering if I’m actually going to make it. There is something very wrong with the system where a student cannot express what they need or even express a need for fair and ethical treatment without fear of retaliation. I went into a PhD program because I thought this would help me become a better researcher and bring me into an environment that would allow me too enhance what I was already doing, tap into more resources, and receive further mentoring from people whose job it was to actually do that. Instead I’ve been met with constant rejection, accusations, retaliations and apathy and blame. My only saving grace has been that I’m not alone in this. I’ve watched my cohorts go from being strong healthy vibrant creative beautiful women with thriving professional careers even, to being haggard, trembling shells. One dropped out with only one class to go. Meanwhile I now only have seven weeks of classes and every day I am wondering if I am going to actually make it through this awe full experience called a PhD in psychology. I feel like I am in a trap and I feel like I am swimming with sharks and just as I wrestle away from one shark I turn around and find my self with in the teeth of another and the water is getting colder and I am getting more tired. Meanwhile those not in academia are having a party on the beach that is really only a few feet away, holding up a cold beer and saying “why are you hanging out there in the cold water, silly, you know you don’t have to be doing any of this, especially at age 50, but meanwhile with every passing day the sacrifices and commitment I and those in my situation made to the process makes it so rather than just swimming to shore I keep treading water hoping that I will survive before I just drowned in the insanity of it all. Thank you again for your post and honesty and candidness and openness - something that is severely discouraged and looked down upon in academia - even within psychology departments that are supposed to be humanistic and trans personal and advocates of critical theory. Perhaps especially in department such as this.

Heraclitus and Leibniz and Gustave Fechner, the founder of quantitative psychology, and many other once revered thinkers believed in pan-psychism, the belief that everything has a kind of consciousness. Today anyone who does so risks being considered a kook. Belief in teleology is also a no-no, Thomas Nagel comes to mind. As does the kind of anticipatory systems work of Robert Rosen.<br /><br />You are seeking to put a kind of perhaps not always kind "God" (as universal template or something) back into the math, science, cog sci, etc. equation. A "gut" GUT that was taken out after the so-called Enlightenment by those who now stand on the shoulders of giants, but who are not yet again able to see what you can see very well. <br /><br />Your courage exceeds even your science and math-tempered sagacity.

I particularly love your sentence: "What makes the scientific method so beautiful and democratic is that if something is reliably observed, it must be explained whether it suits dogma or not." yet I'm not sure people are so willing to try to explain what does not suit dogma. Do you really ? Would love to know your thoughts.<br /><br />And that's one of the things I would have loved to discuss today with you -- this is Javi, hopefully inviting in some of those parts of Javi that know more about Javi than Javi :)<br /><br />When you talked about the puppet (conscious part / ego) and the master puppet (unconscious / self), I thought that Science has probably been built over the shoulders of the puppet, and that even though it tries to ask questions to the master puppet and claims it has a refined a method for reliable Q&A... things might not really work in that way.<br /><br />Have you read "The Structure of the Scientific Revolutions" by Thomas Kuhn ? Maybe there isn't such a thing as "normal science" and it's all more about evolution than it is about revolutions, but I feel that the scientific method is quite more based on dogma that we've been told or would like to believe (of course Rupert Sheldrake's "The Science Delusion" comes to mind here now too).<br /><br />Ah... one more thing ! I encourage you to send that beautiful dream to the person I told you about today (the dream analyst). I reckon you might be in for a LOVEly surprise !<br /><br />(Don't want to make explicit publicity here so can send you her details via email if you wish)<br /><br />Loved meeting you !Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05733489696902172143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1674559012941123138.post-70722991065716862342015-11-01T18:09:42.124-08:002015-11-01T18:09:42.124-08:00Hi Sky!

Science does indeed have its own prescription for healing, but I think your metaphor is wonderful... in order to use that very prescription, we have to be willing to change, be revealed to new truths, and shake things up. I love your point of truth is always being revealed...i think many scientists approach the world from a very non-inspired place of "There is a finite amount to know, and we are almost there...!!!"

It got me thinking...Thanks for this article, Julia. It got me thinking. I once spent six months in the Philippines. We stayed in the outskirts where we met families who lived in great poverty. Surprisingly to me they were naturally happy - everyday. They were present and very kind to me. They seemed to relish connection. I loved hanging out with them. Then I remember flying back to Los Angeles Airport. I could feel the unhappiness in the air. People seemed generally irritated. I felt a loss being there. <br /><br />I think in our culture there's a lot of emphasis on what we have and do, rather than on being alive and experiencing things. It's hard to market that. I think talking about it like the way you are doing in your blog post, calls the sullenness into question. It's like going, "Oh, that anchor you are dragging behind you is quite interesting. Where did you get it?"Brooks_Palmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02966569708585349904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1674559012941123138.post-20453642191977323292014-09-10T08:14:58.626-07:002014-09-10T08:14:58.626-07:00I love how your bring up that without mysticism, r...I love how your bring up that without mysticism, religion become stiff and dead. Like a tree that is still standing, but no longer alive. It seems that science, when it's alive, thrives on the openness to see, and that means seeing things that don't support how you think things are. That seems closer to the truth because I don't think life is figure-out-able. Like you can understand it. That seems to be the booby-prize. But that pure, unprejudiced seeing seems to be the healing you spoke about.
