“How the mind gears itself for its environment... The mind can go either direction under stress - toward positive or toward negative: on or off. Think of it as a spectrum whose extremes are unconsciousness at the negative end and hyperconsciousness at the positive end. The way the mind will lean under stress is strongly influenced by training." Bene Gesserit axiom (pg 423, book 1, pt 2)” PhilosophyPsychologyMental Health Book:DUNE Source: DUNE
“Buddhist teachings refer to our personalities as karma. Modern psychology seems to agree with Buddhist doctrine in viewing personality as the sum total of past experience. Psychologists limit their study, however, to traits stemming from inherited characteristics, prenatal experience, and life experience. Buddhism goes a step further and includes all experience — over countless eons from the beginningless past. Of course, we’re not conscious of all these experiences. The events we can call to mind are a minute fraction of the total. Nevertheless, all of those experiences have come together now to form a single personality that lives and acts, every minute of the day.” PsychologyBuddhismPersonalityKarma Author:Kōun Yamada

“We have one powerful observer's lens that allows us to see all possible perspectives of ourselves simultaneously, and losing just one perspective means we may lose everything. An integrative way of existing is much better than walking around as broken parts of oneself in this reality. The task is to discover all possible perspectives, achieve integrity among them, and recognize when someone is trying to break it. Continuous well-being is achieved only through continuous integration.” ConsciousnessPsychologySelf LoveSelf ConfidenceIntegrationObserverContinuous Integration Author:Elena Y. Goldberg

“Self-doubt is the voice in your head questioning many of your decisions. It takes time to confine it to a dark room or even imprison it within your consciousness to rid yourself of it forever. Like water, it finds its way to you through small holes in your ship where you never expected it, and the only right thing to do is to catch it in time.” SelfConsciousnessPsychologySelf Doubt Author:Elena Y.

“To replace the self with the ego is to misunderstand the essence of our being. True egolessness can only be achieved through rare states of psychosis, enlightenment, deep meditation, or profound drug experiences. Yet, such a state is fleeting, and once it ends, we are reborn into our selves once more. An eternal egoless existence is an illusion, even for monks. Our journey is not about eradicating the ego but about continuously integrating ourselves into a harmonious whole.” PsychologyEgoIllusionIntegration Author:Elena Y. Goldberg
