122. Mind and its Methods: A Reflection on Neurotic Science [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... meanings that have been historically repressed, in order that the claims of "mind" might supersede the claims of material existence. Concepts found in the methodology of the natural scientists are strung together with painstaking precision to avoid any breakthrough of the rich, compulsive, material irritability that drives these organisms to do their work. And yet, the psychology of the scientist is quite transparent. The need to not know, the need to run away from full disclosure of scientific ground, is blatantly demonstrated in...scientific models that are so beset with repressive language and structures. The scientific community reports that it "purifies" human experience. The scientists claim that when they work ...
123. The Center Holds [Journals] [Pensee]
... leaving the possibility of the subtlest kinds of transmission wide open. Inheritance of behavior patterns laid down in catastrophic circumstances might explain a number of biological enigmas- bird migration; swarming; acute sensitivity of many species to the subtlest earth tremors, solar eclipses, etc. The inheritance of memory has already been suggested by experiments on rats and worms. PSYCHOLOGY Here, without any perceptible break between disciplines, one touches a major premise of Velikovsky's psychology, barely adumbrated in the epilogue to Worlds in Collision. Referring to Freud's idea of an archaic heritage of traumatic memories transmitted from generation to generation, and also to Jung's concept of a collective unconscious, he wrote: "In the light of ...
124. Indispensable Gods [Books] [de Grazia books]
... is therefore ambivalently tragic and joyful. Anniversary excesses and orgies, at both extremes of somberness and exuberance, are nevertheless occasions for the relief of tragic memory, more or less deeply suppressed. Anniversaries cluster around the great cycles of the ages, which give evidence of having been common to most of the world's cultures. Calendar diversions, not psychological changes, have driven apart the anniversaries of different cultures; they are farther apart in days than they are in mind. The end of the year inspires saturnalia in many cultures. Also thus, Roman Catholic and Greek churches mark a different Easter holiday for unessential reasons. Anniversaries sometimes are pulled together in a given culture by their original ...
125. The Palaetiology of Fear and Memory [Books]
... owl (knowledge) will tell us that we are only imagining disaster (dreaming). This same story, with some variations, is found in many cultures. The same mental process and types of output are found everywhere. People sense fear, share it with others, and treat its symptoms by means of fable. A First Approximation Psychology has long tried to pinpoint a "primal fear" or "primal anxiety" that seems to be born with us or infects us soon thereafter. The fear seems to originate very early; else why would we as infants be so eager to enter upon our therapy through chant and fable? Such therapy appears to be attachable to any ...
126. Homo Schizo Meets God [Books] [de Grazia books]
... this racket. The ideas of priority', prediction, ' and claim' are more political than scientific. The word claim' connotes possessiveness- not a happy human quality. V. liked the term; the press liked it; ambitious scientists like it. and long years of struggle have gone on is such fields as physics and psychology to try to assure people's claims to discovery, as if all of knowledge is of little bits, ever-diminishing bits as well, that are owned by an individual forever. Darwin need not have worried; his location, his friends, and the ample, ambiguous, diffident qualities of his writing, pitched at the consensus of all-who-mattered, ...
127. The Velikovsky Affair [Books] [de Grazia books]
... of planets like Earth or Jupiter, which are surrounded by a magnetosphere and move through the magnetic field permeating the solar system and the plasma winds that sweep through it, will come to quantitative analysis, too. With new claimants to participation in the mechanism of the solar system, the problem of its stability is brought into new light. PSYCHOLOGICAL PREMISES Because of his psychoanalytic training and experience Velikovsky was able to realize that men tend to shunt off as fables the accumulated memories and records of cosmic cataclysms. Even biblical fundamentalists do not accept at face value what is told in plain language in a book that they purportedly interpret to the letter. A few hundred years after the last ...
128. Cosmic Catastrophes and the Day of the Lord [Articles]
... really needs an hour or two to just lay the groundwork. Now if all of you had a background in biblical studies, we could just jump right in to the thing, but I want to lay the groundwork in this sense that in order to understand this concept and the imagery associated with it, one has to understand that the psychological aspect of what happened was a traumatizing event, what happened in the Venus catastrophe, what happened in the earlier catastrophes, did something psychologically to the human race and Velikovsky will be dealing with that in his book Mankind in Amnesia. But the late Dr. Myers who had some articles in the earlier issues of KRONOS, and by ...
129. The Velikovsky Affair [Books] [de Grazia books]
... be communicated. As its value becomes apparent, the truth will be used in all applied fields that are related. Those who operate in the name of this model tend to deny a sociology of science. The concept of sociology implies that men are conditioned in their behaviour by social factors lying outside of the intellect. The scope of the psychology of science is similarly reduced, creating a constant tendency to believe in absolute realities. Furthermore, since those under the rationalistic spell claim that after all there is an objective method of testing reality and any reasonable person can see the truth when it is presented to him, ' they tend to dismiss political problems as irrelevant, and to ...
