This book picks up where Kabbalah and Psychoanalysis (2012) left
off. It is based on two expanded transcriptions of seminars given
for the New York University Postdoctoral Program Contemplative
Studies Project. As noted in Kabbalah and Psychoanalysis, W. R.
Bion once said that he uses the Kabbalah as a framework for
psychoanalysis. This book enlarges the inner sense of this
statement. The seminars depict intricate intertwining of processes
in psychoanalysis and Kabbalah, processes important in helping us
live more richly. Religious language helps bring out nuances of
psychological states and psychology helps make the language of the
spirit more meaningful to emotional concerns today.Bion and
Winnicott are the main psychoanalytic heroes of this work, each
adding richness to a root sense out of which their clinical and
written work grow. A felt sense, spans many dimensions, traversing
sensory life, vital sensing, common sense, the sense of language,
cultural sensing, intuition, Freud's use of consciousness as a
sense organ of psychical perception, and other qualities still
unknown.Case descriptions include extended work with an alcoholic
man, opening new paths to living, and a detailed account of helping
a creative, tormented woman die well.Aspects of psychosis,
creativity, mysticism and everyday life blend and have a say. The
main focus is psychic reality, with psychoanalysis and Kabbalah
tools in this great enterprise of learning to work with ourselves.
