A Call to Our Sciences to Embrace the Awakening, Which It, Too, Has Been Resisting Although our very survival depends on a paradigm change, or shift, it is being resisted mightily by our communities of scientific researchers. This Scientific Awakening is as much a threat to the corporate hegemony over modern culture as is the social and political Awakenings. There has been as much a battle in science over the last fifty years — a scientific culture war, if you will — as there has been the one in our societies around the world ... and for the same reasons. Paradigm shift threatens the status quo. “The crises of our time, it becomes increasingly clear, are the necessary impetus for the revolution now under way. And once we understand nature’s transformative powers, we see that it is our powerful ally, not a force to be feared or subdued.” — Thomas Kuhn TRANSCENDING WORLDS Page 33

WOMB WITH A VIEW — THE PRENATAL AND PERINATAL UNCONSCIOUS Page 52 Play Therapy and Reevaluations of Ego and Id Descending as he did from the Freudian tradition — Winnicott was a student of psychoanalyst, Melanie Klein — still, Winnicott, like some others being mentioned here, differed with Freud, not just in his interpretations of selves, or components of the psyche, but in the way to do therapy. He saw the psychoanalytic framework involving an authoritarian analyst and a compliant client as fostering the false self. Instead he used play, in his therapies, as a way to bring out and foster connection with the true self, which he saw as having components of creativity, wholeness, and well-being. Indeed, in seeing this component of personality, the true self — what Freud might interpret as the id — as being a source of healing, creativity, and growth, as opposed to the healing force emanating from the “rational” ego, his therapy was a turnabout on Freud’s. Similarly, his interpretation of what Freud would undoubtedly have called the ego as being a false self — one which blocks real aliveness, connection to others, and creativity, and is comprised of defenses seen as much less useful and necessary as Freud’s defenses were seen to be — is a similar significant revisioning of psychoanalytic understanding.

Cultures Create Worlds In fact, ultimately our world is defined in the part of the person that stores cultural information — the cerebral cortex. What this is saying is that cultures create worlds. One’s view of the world, arrived at through the process of enculturation in a person’s development, is determined by one’s culture, by the knowledge and experiences one has had in interaction with one’s society. The experience of hearing a particular sound is not known to be that of hearing someone talking to us, until the cortex defines those sounds as words. Biology Creates Worlds However, notice that before any cultural interpretation, those “messages” have had a journey through areas of the brain that define them prior to or outside of culture. Before any stimuli are interpreted as words, for example, a part of us determines that they are sounds.

PREFACE. A DANCE OF THE SEVEN VEILS Page xxv Book Three, Dance of the Seven Veils II: Prenatal/Perinatal Psychology, Mythology, and Your Divine Self ... Infancy to Prenate, Veils Four-Six. The Series continues with this book in your hand, which is the second of three parts of Dance of the Seven Veils. This book, the third volume in The Path of Ecstasy Series, answers the questions, what is the Divine Self? Do we have such an inner core of being that is positive, interactive with the Universe beyond us, helpful and healing, confident, powerful, blissful, and eminently loving? Indeed, do we have such a Self that might be categorized in the Hindu fashion as Satchitanda — meaning Being, Awareness, Bliss? If so, how did we lose it, so that we think we do not? And, how can we get it back? This book is concerned with the time of our lives around birth; however it traces the psychological imprints from that time back into the womb. This work’s elucidation of the experiential realms of the prenatal is, in fact, that which distinguishes it from what has been said about this time around birth, previously, in the field of prenatal and perinatal psychology.

Furthermore, and slightly different from Janov, the significance of the true and false self for the purposes of the perinatal is that Winnicott saw the origins of the true and false selves as being in early infancy, related to the acquiring of satisfaction of needs in that early state. While Janov traces the beginnings of the split that far back, he stresses the consolidation of the unreal self and the near total split with the real self as occurring at a singular event occurring at the around age of four or five — the primal scene. The primal scene is the significant precipitating event causing one to give up one’s struggle to stay real and to surrender to the unreal. Aside from this difference in emphasis, the two are very much in agreement. However, the qualification I need to make regarding his conceptualizations versus Janov’s is that Winnicott saw value in the false self as somehow retaining the interests of the true self. In this way, he saw the false self — as Freud thought as well for his ego, only even more so — as having a function. This is completely unlike Janov who saw the unreal self as being something completely inauthentic which blocks the expression of the real self and needs to be overthrown, “violently,” as Janov put it. Thus Winnicott, in terms of the valuation and view of the ego/unreal self/false self holds a midway point between the positions of Freud and Janov. “WE AIN’T BORN TYPICAL” Page 51

Similarly, the many horror films ending in a burning inferno, which typically brings down the building or house and often, tellingly, sinks below the ground in doing so, are depicting an eruption of perinatal material — horror that is too pervasive to be avoided. The Ends and the Means Meanwhile, in Joe Versus the Volcano, the ending is clearer about the properly creative response. In the request to Joe — which he accepts, by the way— to jump into the volcano, which would keep it from erupting and thus save the people of the island, Joe is asked to give up his life to save an entire community, not merely to risk his life to rescue his anima, his feeling self (his feminine, creative, intuitive, playful, loving, humorous, emotional self). He is asked to separate himself and his intentions from any possibility of success. Like the Turkish and Occupy protesters, it is the style, the mode, the means of action, not the ends, which are all important. And any foreseeable gains have to do with what will be accomplished in terms of one’s character and nobility of self, by acting honorably, against all odds… THE TAO OF FUNNY GOD, MATRIARCHY, AND LUNAR THEOLOGIES Page 53

Book Two, Dance of the Seven Veils I: Identity/Primal Psychology, Mythology, and Your Real Self ... Adult to Toddler, Veils One-Three. This second volume in The Path of Ecstasy Series, is the first of three parts on this topic of the Seven Veils. This first part answers the questions, who to be? And, what is the real self? It deals with our stage of adulthood and goes back to that of toddlerhood. It is all about pulling back the Veils of anthropocentrism and species-superiority, which is Veil One; the hidden agendas of societies and especially its elites which get construed as rites of passage and initiation into adulthood for young girls and boys and which thus corrupt their personalities along lines not their own, which is Veil Two; and the layers of parental abuse, misdirection, control and direction, for their ends, not our own, which get impressed upon us in infancy, toddlerhood, and childhood, and which coalesce as the primal scene, which is Veil Three. This last tells each and every one of us that we are not going to be loved unless we be something other than what we are, what we were meant to be, and what we were destined to be — which is our real self.

PRE/PERINATAL PSYCHOLOGY AND PHENOMENON OF RE-EXPERIENCE Page 17 ….normal stresses and unavoidable harshness inherent in birth and early infancy. Yet all of this cannot be completely avoided. “Birth is like death to the newborn,” writes Verny (1984, p. 48). David Chamberlain Hypnosis, Confirmed Validity of Birth Memories David Chamberlain (1988), for many years the president of APPPAH (the Association for Prenatal and Perinatal Psychology and Health), has further substantiated the claim of consciousness at birth and the accuracy of pre- and perinatal memory in the phenomenon of re-experience. He reported one study he did in which he compared hypnotically retrieved memories of birth from mother and child and found an astonishing degree of conformity in their responses. Of note was the degree of inner consistency and originality in these memories as reported by the former neonate. They often contained technical details of the delivery and labor unlike what would be expected of the medically unsophisticated, a perceptive critique of the way the birth was handled, and other details of the event that could not have been known through normal conscious channels.

EXPERIENCE IS DIVINITY Page 32 …presentation, delineation, and analysis of the holographic model of a new paradigm. I recommend those pages highly. On-line at youtube, I recommend a video, titled “Holographic Universe,” which is an excellent overview of the model and makes the clear case that science has most definitely overturned the materialistic paradigm which birthed it hundreds of years ago. All that being said, I wish to point out that the recent and rapid emergence of the field of transpersonal psychology itself is pushed by an inability to continually disregard the evidence of our own senses that does not fit with the mechanical paradigms we were taught. This new evidence, which is pouring forth on the cutting edges of our modern sciences, has made the Newtonian-Cartesian paradigm as obsolete as the flat earth one.

“WE AIN’T BORN TYPICAL” Page 51 …hope of getting one’s needs met or, put another way, in order to hold out hope for being loved. Winnicott’s true self and false self are pretty much the same, with qualifications I will mention. Winnicott saw the true self as the source of creativity, self-confidence, and contented satisfaction in one’s life and the false self as the one we develop to please others, which focuses on compliance and is essentially unreal and “phoney” — focused as it is on satisfying the needs of others in a roundabout, but thoroughly unconscious, way of trying to get one’s own needs filled. These aspects of personhood might also be related to Freud’s earlier postulation of an ego and an id, but they present a thorough reconceptualization of them, with the id emerging as a true self and a source of great value and the ego revealing its unreal roots and its nature as comprised of defenses. This is hugely significant.

THE TAO OF FUNNY GOD, MATRIARCHY, AND LUNAR THEOLOGIES Page 53 …that results in the uniting with anima energy, which is symbolically the saving of the “damsel,” in this case played by Meg Ryan. So earlier on there is a dealing with psychodynamic energy. One must be brave, and of course that part is learning that is fundamental to any style of hero. In the same way in Nothing but Trouble — another cult classic I will use to make my case — Chevy Chase deals with psychodynamic material and enacts a “dragon slaying” by risking his life to rescue Demi Moore from a giant chopping machine. But, also similarly, this results in the opening up of another level, requiring a completely different — indeed, opposite — response. In Nothing But Trouble, the ending shows the town, after all — not the least affected by the heroic rescue and escape occurring earlier in the movie — sinking into a pervasive and inferno-like underground. The pervasive fire below the earth has much in common with a volcano. In both movies, there is this element of consuming fire that is used to symbolize pain, suffering, and evil that is all-encompassing, comprehensive, and thus unable to be defeated in any normal way, and certainly not by single individuals or small groups of them.
