Revitalized religion and psychological therapy
Nietzsche pointed out that
physiological confusion can lead to psychological error. This can apply
to religious, philosophical and cultural error in general. How so?
Considering the material world evil and
greatly inferior to the spiritual world---including the begrudging
religious okays of material life under certain conditions, due to the
fact that only non-attachment from material desires leads to the
experience of the God or Father Within---this is a basic and very old
physiological/psychological error, other than when applied in the Inward Path.
Considering ideas more important than
living objects is a philosophical error. Considering all people as
equal is a cultural error. These stem from the
physiological/psychological error of demeaning the material world. It
is not enough for psychological therapy to try to release the
individual passions and instincts with no direction other than
hedonistic freedom, or with demands of equality.
Evolutionary
and teleological physiological/psychological/genetic goals exist, life is activated from within by the
Spirit-Will-To-Godhood and shaped from without by selection and
evolution, and it is this that we need to harmonize with. We are
instinctively evolving, almost as
a Super-Id might activate us, toward higher species on the path to
Godhood.
