With the increase of the imperative need for food, all individual differences will be blotted out, and, in their place, we shall see the uniform expression of the one unsatisfied instinct.'” But Frankl by dint of direct experience, not supposition, knew better: “But in the concentration camps, we witnessed the contrary; we saw while faced with the identical situation, one man degenerated while another attained virtual saintliness.” Freud’s is the atheist’s “untested” perspective, and one we assume is shared by the interlopers.

Now we need to worry about WHY he (the patient) needs the health.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Metaphysics232 views0 answers0 votesFrankl wrote: “A doctor should not prescribe a tranquilizer care for the despair of a man who is grappling with spiritual problems.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Metaphysics232 views0 answers0 votesFrankl wrote: “It is philosophical dilettantism (or amateurism) to rule out, for example, the existence of a divine being on the ground that the idea of God arose out of primitive man’s fear of powerful natural forces. It is equally false to judge the worth of a work of art by the fact that the artist created it in, say, a psychotic phase of his life.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Metaphysics230 views0 answers0 votesFrankl wrote: “Man should not ask what he may expect from life, but should rather understand that life expects something from him.” Can Creator share with us what Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol require from the human individual? In other words, what remains within the domain of the individual to work out? Is it true that prayer and the LHP can make choices and leaps of faith easier, but cannot MAKE those choices? Are the choices themselves, the leaps of faith, left to the individual to accomplish as in the saying, you can lead a horse to water, but cannot make it drink?

Frankl was already a successful psychiatrist when he entered the camps as a captured Jew. He was to later learn that his entire family died in the camps and he emerged the sole survivor. He endured great suffering. But while it’s safe to assume that he was resolving personal karma through this incredible trial and travail, he also approached the experience as an opportunity, a “divine mission” to put it plainly. To study evil up close and personal, to learn all he could, and to try and find a means by which it might be conquered. What is Creator’s perspective and what was the mix of karma and mission life that Frankl navigated?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Metaphysics379 views0 answers0 votesFrankl, in recounting his experience of being reduced to a possession-less slave in the concentration camp wrote: “A thought transfixed me: For the first time in my life I saw the truth … The truth that love is the ultimate and the highest goal to which man can aspire. Then I grasped the meaning of the greatest secret that human poetry and human thought and belief have to impart: The salvation of man is through love and in love. I understood how a man who has nothing left in this world still may know bliss, be it only for a brief moment, in the contemplation of his beloved … For the first time in my life I was able to understand the meaning of the words, ‘The angels are lost in the perpetual contemplation of an infinite glory.'” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Metaphysics251 views0 answers0 votesFrankl wrote: “My mind still clung to the image of my wife. A thought crossed my mind: I didn’t even know if she was still alive. I knew only one thing – which I have learned well by now: Love goes very far beyond the physical person of the beloved. It finds its deepest meaning in his spiritual being, his inner self. Whether or not he is actually present, whether or not he is still alive at all, ceases somehow to be of importance … ‘Set me like a seal upon thy heart, love is as strong as death.'” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Metaphysics257 views0 answers0 votesFrankl wrote: “We who lived in the concentration camps can remember the men who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread. They may have been few in number, but they offer sufficient proof that everything can be taken from a man but one thing: The last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Metaphysics250 views0 answers0 votesFrankl wrote: “In the final analysis it becomes clear that the sort of person the prisoner became was the result of an inner decision and not the result of camp influences alone.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Metaphysics226 views0 answers0 votesFrankl wrote: “… people forget that often it is just such an exceptionally difficult external situation which gives man the opportunity to grow spiritually, beyond himself. Instead of taking the camp’s difficulties as a test of their inner strength, they did not take their life seriously and despised it as something of no consequence.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Metaphysics240 views0 answers0 votesFrankl wrote: “… suffering is not always a pathological phenomenon; rather than being a symptom of neurosis, suffering may well be a human achievement, especially if the suffering grows out of existential frustration.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Metaphysics231 views0 answers0 votes
