my dad is a big fan

naqshabandi's borrowed from kundalini yoga huh

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
