our senses are part of a psychic content much larger than our own

It is so obvious, so close to us that it is almost imperceptible. We can hardly distinguish the obvious when we are faced with our sensory impressions. All the constantly flaring up, disappearing, recurring, repeating and escaping sensations we encounter within us. But that they also in a suprapersonal sense have a function we share with all others as our common belonging from which we also derive our personal and cultural relations to it. The relationship between our inner person and its counterpart means that we have an observational relationship to a personal experience of the larger psychic scope of which it is a part. The active energy that drives the conceptualization of its content is perceived by us both in its larger psychic scope as we do within the scope it has for our individual senses. Here we have a tendency to bring them together and make them one. We perceive the active force behind our sensory impressions in a way that makes us unite its personal content with the greater common one that we simultaneously share with all others. Not that it has both a unique personally experienced information intended for the one who receives it, but the experiencer, if he is not able to carry the active force behind it, is forced to bring the content back to the larger psychic scope by feeling compelled to convey it to everyone else as a truth for them as well. Often with a conviction that contains a demanding image of its original authenticity and truth and something everyone must pay attention to. I believe all forms of missionary activity, whether political, scientific or based on teachings of various kinds and origins, follow from this. The relationship remains for the observer between the conceptualizing larger psychic scope and its personal meaning and function for the individual. Based on this, it is not difficult to see that the cultural content of consciousness in its entirety and larger psychic scope contains an immense amount of invaluable information that in a powerful way has an active meaning for our inner personal life. It constitutes different levels of psychic resonance within us. We carry the personal part of the active mass of conceptual content we share with everyone else in the form of the constant sensory impressions we receive in its relation to its conceptual content. We do not see the forest for the trees. So in our undeveloped naivety we devastate it in the belief that it is our own. We have not yet discovered that when we share our concepts with others, we share not only our sensory impressions but also a content whose origin and active power is derived from the larger psychic scope we simultaneously also share with everyone else. An experience that resembles a kind of psychological awakening, and a separation where the world is more than just the conditioned ego, our inner family, or its oblivious relation to culture and country.
