... psychoanalytical procedure is violated by revealing all at once instead of making the patient arrive at his insights gradually. This is only one of the violations. But there is a great advantage over the accepted procedure in that instead of working on the assumption that the dominant traumatic experience of the human race was in Oedipal and castration experiences, the true traumas are laid bare. Is it then true that the making known of events forgotten but enshrined in the collective subconscious mind can only arouse hostile attitudes? If this is the case then my work is pregnant only with hatred and irritation that will surface, leaving the repressed contents where they are. In their exposure phobia, the repressed contents ...
42. Velikovsky and Historical Anti-Naturism [Journals] [Kronos]
... - Claude Levi-Strauss, THE RAW AND THE COOKED: INTRODUCTION TO A SCIENCE OF MYTHOLOGY: I ( 1975), p.13. In his last major book, Sigmund Freud ( 1856-1939) sought a psychoanalytical explanation for the origins of the Jewish religion. In his view, those origins were analogous to the neurotic process: "Early trauma defence - latency - outbreak of neurotic illness partial return of the repressed. ''(1 ) Even earlier, in 1913, Freud had supposed that the sense of guilt for an action has persisted for many thousands of years and has remained operative in generations which can have had no knowledge of that action.(2 ) A ...

44. An Empirical Approach to Collective AmnesiaA [Journals] [Kronos]
... unique spectacle which I observe now for a full generation" (KRONOS III:2 , V & ES, p. 16). If we accept the validity of Velikovsky's psychological premise, then the discrepancy between our present uniformitarian conception of natural history and the experience of global upheavals described by the ancients has resulted from motivated forgetting- a trauma induced collective amnesia maintained by active psychological repression. The position that humankind collectively has become scotomic to its catastrophic past offers a wholly new foundation for general behavioral science. The accompanying view that buried collective terror continues to motivate present behavior brings the concept of collective amnesia to immediate attention. By analogy to the terms and dynamics of individual psychoanalysis ...

47. A Catastrophic Reading of Religious Systems [Journals] [SIS Review]
... ) From Velikovsky - theory of cosmic instabilities and global catastrophes. b) From Velikovsky - theory of collective amnesia, blockage of memory and trivialisation of myths. c) From Velikovsky and Wolfe - theory of denial, desire to not know', to evolve beliefs constructed to permit us to deceive ourselves, avoid remembering and deny or co-opt traumas. I will ask if religion is unconscious denial while figuratively remembering. 12. Example of Japanese culture post-World War II, history denies atomic events but horror movies remember them in disguise. Religion may do both of these jobs regarding planetary catastrophe. 13.

48. The Advancement of Science [Books] [de Grazia books]
... Newton, Hume, Darwin, Pasteur, Freud, Einstein, Planck, and Heisenberg. The development of science, that is, sustains a branch of sociology: of historical psycho-politico-anthropo-sociology. When this is applied to science, as the science of science, a partial truth such as V. s concept of collective fear being inherited from the trauma of ancient catastrophes takes its place as a modest useful contribution to the science of science. The more general truth is contained in Deg's model of the gestalt of creation where Homo Schizo emerges out of a catastrophized ambiance as the true and normal human, who invents science as a typically schizoid set of operations for inducing psychic control and uniting ...

... was a catastrophist, and a brilliant one. From: Henry Zecher, hzecher@aoc.gov Date: Sun, 24 May 1998 14:27:21 -0400 Re: Mankind in Amnesia Velikovsky's theory that ancient catastrophes were still driving factors in modern behavior was his collective amnesia theory. This collective amnesia, by which we forget the traumas of the past and are therefore driven by subconscious reactions, is based on his idea that there is- throughout the human race- a collective subconscious mind. This concept he got from Carl Jung who, traveling around the world, saw common human characteristics and behavior modes from one culture to another. Rather than simply conclude that all ...

... , interdisciplinary approach to cosmology and human history. The results are not only much more interesting than the fragments emerging from narrowly-defined specialties, but provide a more believable and more meaningful understanding of the world in which we live: here we see the subtle CONNECTEDNESS of the physical world at all scales of observation; we see the relationship between planetary trauma and the sudden emergence of ancient civilization; we peer into the reservoir of mankind's deepest fear (the fear of a return to chaos); and we find a new understanding of worldwide symbols which have enchanted humanity over thousands of years. Talbott and Thornhill have appeared on the same stage at two world conferences and several regional workshops. ...
