Alexander Lowen, MD, psychoanalyst and scholar known worldwide as the creator of Bioenergetic Analysis and for his numerous works on human behavior, including "Body On Depression," says: "There are two illusions that are very different in our culture - one related to money and the other sex. The illusion that money is omnipotent, he can solve all problems and bring its holder all the joy and happiness is responsible for the worship of money. Similarly, the cult of sex comes from a belief in the omnipotence of sex . In the opinion of those who share these illusions, the sex appeal, as well as money, is a power that can be used to open 'the gate of heaven'. For many people money and sex became the supreme deity. " A very simplified analysis of this issue raised by Lowen shows that both illusions, money and sex as a tool of power seeking, lead people to make the appearance as if the content, which causes a conflict of values represented by the ego and the body: "The ego thinks of fulfillment and pleasure in the body. The ego works with images, works with the body feelings. " Under this view, the resolution of this conflict only happens when someone gets to match image and feeling, or dilute the role of ego feeling, which probably will give you a balanced emotional life and healthy. The contrast, ie, when sentiment is subordinated or repressed in favor of the ego image, the illusion, the result is an existence fraught with frustrations, imbalances and emotional discomfort with unpredictable results. The same Lowen said: "Behind all illusion is a desire for freedom and love. The desperate struggle for individual freedom and love through the illusion. In his mind, power is the key to freedom and love. " The question that arises then is the following: How to overcome this illusion of power, aggregate money and sex? Of course, this would require a thorough analysis of the history of each individual holding this type of illusion, but at first power- One could say that both the sense of freedom and love must be experienced bodily, it must feel to be able to assess the extent of these feelings and you unlock the paths to thrive naturally and they are real. The point of this brief explanation of this issue is to cause an instant analysis on how to live and feel of each one. Since many were moved by many different reasons for being emotionally nourishing illusions may be doomed to live continually uncertain about what is essential to live well. What according to Alexander Lowen, means to be "continuously suspended between reality and illusion, something like living between life and death. " This situation is not desirable nor advisable for anyone who longs for a life full of real and lasting satisfaction.
