Kabbalah—the Psychology of the Modern Times

222Materialistic psychology, which has developed during the past 100 to 150 years, is the study of human egoism: how individual egoism interacts with everyone else, what connections, thoughts, tastes it has, and how it develops and satisfies itself.

Sigmund Freud, the founder of modern psychology, developed this system in practice, but today it does not work anymore because the system has become integral.

It requires us to exit ourselves and to not view the surrounding society with the selfish purpose of gain and fulfillment. After all, according to Freud, our main instinct is food and sex, “bread and circuses.”

Now the surrounding environment asks something different from us. “You will not receive fulfillment if you are not participating in bestowal in the way that you would be in balance with the surrounding environment” nature says to us. Thus, Freud’s approach does not work here anymore.

Kabbalah steps forward in place of Freud. It tells how to balance oneself with the surrounding environment in order to feel optimal and comfortable. In other words, Kabbalah is also psychology, but it is a psychology of the modern times, the psychology of connecting humanity into a single integral one.
