Want to read this, easy book, but my depression prevents me
you'll get there eventually
what MBTI are you and Nester
just primary, idc about secondaries
also have you read any freud or jung
or which psychologists do you read
i know you mentioned Haidt already, when we first chatted on irc
im sort of interested in George Lakoff
INTJ
I'm not big on reading non-fiction, so I have not read much of either Freud of Jung
I am more familiar with Jung's ideas
and have watched his interviews
what fiction do you read then
oh youre pakistani, right
sci-fi, fantasy
do you read urdu poetry lol
iqbal
nope
my dad is a big fan
ah
but they said its sorta satanic
I find Freud's ideas compelling in narcissism
somewhat compelling
yes, Lacan who i read, calls it the mirror stage
mirror, true self, false self
these concepts have been somewhat useful
I tend to form my own ideas about things generally
if I can help it
false self is more of a vedanta and r.d.laing concept
lacan is more buddhist, he says there is no true self
Sunyata/emptiness/Void
I think that's wrong
as well as buddhism
the two questions of is there a self
and is it good
answers are yes for me
damn
yeah unfortunate
a genuine genius it seems
