Sickness of the Infinitude

Nauli

A careful scrutiny of various schools of psychoanalytic psychology reveals general belief in the presence in the human psyche of what I call the “Great Self Within,” a very real inner presence that is not the same as a healthy human self or ego, but can take possession of an ego and drive it to frag—mentation and total destruction. This “Great Self Within,” also called the god—complex or the god—imago, has sometimes been equated with Satan or the devil, but it is very much more complex than the imago of Satan. It is not evil in itself, even though it does fuel the Luciferian tendency.
