The need for a better model of mind
 
   
  Clearly, there is a desperate need for better models of mind other than those based on the sexual dreams of frustrated married Austrian women (Freud) and other dubious models of mind.  
  What is needed is a clear and clinical view of mind that incorporates the understandings that have been outlined and discussed throughout the journey of self and the journey of UCA.  
  That the human mind has certain predisposed skills and functions.  
  That the human mind is interrelated to other levels of awareness.  
  That the mind is not simply the ghost in the machine, but part of a greater connection to all things.  
  Psychology and psychiatry have ruled themselves out as being redeemable, given their obsession in eliminating anything that smacks of the workings of awareness, of dreams and mind as have a legitimate parallel existence.  
  Only when we have a better model of mind can we begin to grow up from childish diagnosis and analysis and really start to address human mind disorders and misalignments.
