Event November 27, 2010, Paris is expecting a happy event: the meeting of leading experts in the psychoanalytic world and the Buddhist world. If the Anglo-Saxons have known very early fruitful interdisciplinary encounters between Buddhism and psychoanalysis, about Erich Fromm and DT Suzuki in particular, then Trungpa, Searles, Laing and Podvoll, France has waited long enough. The arrival of new meditation techniques suited to the overall health (mental and somatic) in our country probably accelerate a movement already begun opening on the side of thinkers. Just to be convinced to see the excellent symposium Buddhism and Philosophy held at the Cité Universitaire Internationale in Paris in 2005, (Available at Nangpa diffusion).
The symposium entitled "Beyond the ego, freedom? Psychoanalysis, Philosophy and Meditation "is an event in several senses. First, it signals the end of a shelving of the spiritual dimension in favor of pure scientific point of view as a means of human knowledge. The university gradually integrates the existence of other speeches than his own, equally valid and well founded in the experiment. Moreover, psychoanalysts, who rarely communicate outside their sphere they are accused of keeping rightly concluded, is the perfect way to meet and debate. Leading representatives of mainstream psychoanalysis in France, organized around three major figures such as Freud, Lacan and Jung, accept constructive criticism and confrontation about a difficult topic to me.
Argument
Nowadays, the discourse on the subject and its necessary safeguard against a world that has become technically and dehumanizing are commonplace. We need to start thinking more radically Again, that goes to the very basis of this notion of subject and answer this question: "Beyond my freedom? "
The inventors of the twentieth century psychoanalysis from Freud to Lacan through Jung, have all attempted to exit from the narrow conception of subjectivity. The concepts of the unconscious, the Soi opposite me, on cleavage by the desire - all ways of saying unable to capture the essence of the human psyche and to classify the side of an ego. In philosophy, the self is with the ego cogito of Descartes, the reference around which revolves our apprehension modern psyche. Is this the only horizon of our thought?
Meditation offers in the event, there is nothing like humans than me, a soul actually exists. Buddhist thought supports the lack of robustness of the phenomena and the opening of the first man, before any determination "me" and "other."
Psychoanalysis, philosophies of East and West, what the common denominator in their understanding of man beyond the self, which preserves the truth free from confinement? A dialogue can be structured ? Meditation can it be therapeutic, as is the analytic treatment? During a day colloquium organized by the association Psy & Young, psychoanalysts, philosophers, teachers of meditation confront their views on the question of me.
Speakers
Michel Cazenave is a philosopher and poet, director of the Center for Studies and Research Francophone Carl Gustav Jung. It is well known to listeners of his program for France Culture The living and the gods he has produced for nearly twelve years. His speech will focus on "Re-reading Jung. The necessary excess of complex I (Jung and Eastern thought).
Alain Gaffinel is a doctor, hospital intensive care practitioner, he practiced meditation for a decade. During the day, it will give some answers to the question: "Meditation is it therapy? "That challenges all practitioners as those who never had experience of meditation.
Jean-Luc Giribone is a writer, editor Humanities at the Threshold. He played a crucial role in the introduction of Palo Alto in France, and student ENS, has long followed the seminars of Lacan. It will propose a dialogue between two major writers, probably the most important in their respective fields in the second half of the twentieth century: "In Search of the Self: Reading cross Chogyam Trungpa and Jacques Lacan."
Fabrice Midal has a doctorate in philosophy, editor, well known to the Buddhist world to be a representative speaking the most innovative in its constant questioning of the tradition of Dharma in the light of philosophy and poetry. Author of numerous books including "What Buddhism for the West? "Threshold, 2006, he founded Association Prajna & Philia where he teaches meditation. It will inform me of the notion: "The ego in Buddhism. Structure of an illusion. "
Peter Sullivan is a member of the prestigious Paris Psychoanalytic Society, an institution founded in 1926 Freud's lifetime and with his support. Lecturer at the Institute of Psychology, University Paris V René Descartes, which will host the symposium, it is also the editor of the journal Child Psychiatry. He illustrates this formula: "Me, Me, Me" by showing how Freudian psychoanalysis can be exceeded necessary for this instance but that is misleading the ego.
Jean-Jacques Tyszler , last but not least a list of speakers in their fields, is a psychoanalyst, psychiatrist, president of the Lacanian International, the largest French-language school after teaching Lacan. Its task is to make audible analytical thinking sometimes ignored the question of the topic: "Is there an issue of the Unconscious? Subject denatured drive, divided by topic or fantasy object cause of desire ... ".
The highlight of the year 2010 is open to all, is to be missed. Readers of the column Psychology & Meditation will gather many of the topics that are important to heart, in a joint reflection between Buddhism and psychoanalysis. Emphasize again that this is a unique opportunity to date for thought, a first in France, which is to be hoped that the initiative will be replicated by others and truly engage a highlight of these two traditions in respect of their difference.
