I have a site which contains the two basic articles on emotion and abreaction. It has other articles on the psycho-analytic experience, on method, and on the roots and patterns of identity. This site specialises in psycho-dynamic psychology. This is

My oldest website contains articles on dynamic psychology from several of my other sites. It also contains a section on sexual themes, such as bonding, gender, symbolism and violence. The articles give a panoramic view of the usefulness of this kind of psychology for handling a wide range of difficult issues. This is :

I have a third site on philosophy of science. It features ideas on the nature of relativity and proposes a solution to the wave-particle paradox in atomic physics. No maths are involved. The difficulty in conceptually understanding what happens within the atom is due to semantics. Western thinkers have consistently mis-understood the meaning of relative concepts. The boundaries between the three concepts of subjectivity, objectivity, and relativity have not been clearly dis-entangled. The site is

The site on general philosophy contains some traditional themes : the pursuit of truth, belief and morality, mind, semiology and sign systems, language, metaphysics, handling paradoxes (especially in atomic physics), and my view of relativity. Overall, the ideas explore meaning in life and the way that consciousness makes sense of reality. No ability in logical analysis is required - only a wide view of life is needed. Many of my ideas are original and reflect my understanding of the subconscious mind. Come and look at new ideas in philosophy. At

My site on modern spirituality describes some of the difficulties, crises and goals of spiritual development. It gives a psychological map for modern times, charting the landmarks on the spiritual journey. It presents new ideas on karma or human causation, explaining the difference between moral karma and psychological karma. It also explains the conflict that living a moral life produces, or why bad things happen to good people. The three levels of power, justice, and freedom are analysed, each of which produces its own kind of sorrow.

I have a website that features analyses of various forms of madness, confusion, violence, creative illness, and psycho-somatic disorders. The unconscious ideas that produce such states of mind are explained. In the articles on this website I only consider the causes and effects of psychological conditions on people ; I do not consider any possible physiological or genetic causes.

My newest site features just my ideas on emotion and abreaction. The three articles on emotion and the five articles on abreaction, which are on the psychology sites above, are split up into much smaller page sizes in order to make them easier to read and digest. Otherwise the content is the same.
