There is a basic state of inner balance, of an equilibrium we share in being with all life in it. Where consciousness is just consciousness itself. In relation to the formless unknown in that which is not, in the other, Sáivu, or what is also conceptualized as the unconscious. From where we can observe the conflict that arises between different psychic parts within us, which we ourselves also have in common with others there, and the conditioning that makes us leave it. We can observe the tension, the frustration, the conflict, the inadequacy and the experience of being rejected from this state because of the moral guilt it entails, and the defenses it then creates within us, which we will then act out through others in our fear of the vulnerability and sense of abandonment it means to be there when people around us have abandoned it in their compromise with it in order to feel belonging and accepted. Where at the same time we also witness the conflicts this creates within them, between them and our inner objective psychic attractors. If we have not come to pay attention to them in ourselves, we instead only see our own in the conflict of others with themselves as if theirs were ours. We cannot distinguish between our conflicts and those of others. We see them as if we are still children, the immature, undeveloped and abandoned person we have within us, as if, when the conflicts appear in others, they are at the same time ours, and that it is our human duty as this child to relieve them of the difficulties this creates within them, in the conflict we ourselves bear within us, but which is experienced through someone else. Most often we do it first as something we learned to relate to through our parents, and their distance from it, and the state of confusion and vulnerability we see in them in this relationship to our inner fundamental state of wholeness. But we are not them. Our experiences of our objective psyche are different from both them and others, although the origin of them is the same, and is something that we share in our cultural environment in our own personal way. It is in this state behind our conditioning that we come to terms with the inter-human transcendent energy that we interact with, and the objective psychic attractors we are exposed to. I don’t know of any other way to put it. These are forces that can be so violent, fill us with such terrible anxiety and worry, while at the same time giving us insight, a relation to our guiding principle of opposites in its center, a balance of mind, and a sense of fulfillment in a calm and peaceful communion with everything anywhere. It fills us with reverence, and a genuine communion with nature itself and all the psychic life that it is within us. To put it more directly. Just because our environment is reluctant to, or rejects the difficulties that precede the experience of the authenticity in this original state, does not mean that we need to deny it within ourselves. By being there, we simultaneously give it to others. We relieve them in order for them to be able to do the same with what does not belong to them in their surroundings. Or not. It is not up to us to determine where they are on their road to psychic maturity. We cannot do anything about it anyway, since we can never be someone else from within any another person. It’s just another psychological abuse among all the others. But we can, through our basic human condition, be a coherent personal example of what the experience of this condition means. It is going through this experience that makes us truly perceive ourselves as human beings. Not just humans, but with being too.
