This story could have been written in seraiki to convey the intended pathos and childlike gossip.. instead of dressing up in a suit boot of thoughful insights.

hamzaad,

Seraiki is a beautiful language, you should not disparage it.

Dr. Sohail,

In LA, my guru Tom Cruise Swami ji has said that the psychiatrists and the psychobabble they use are nazi mind control methods. So Freud and Jung were perverts at best and nazis at worst, and certainly more welter weight than heavy weights.

Speaking of lightweights, the Freud and Jung saga is replicated on chowk with another couple of feather weights; Manto first loved Gandhi, and then became his worst critic.

Although Jung was at least a nazi, the best thing I can say about Manto is that he does give a sound thrashing to the injuns ...but that's about it

This article could be called an introduction to psychodynamics for dummies.
I only became aware of Freud's relationship with his sister-in-law last year. You seem to have known about it for longer. I haven't read much Jung. Is it in his works?
Neither of these men ever claimed they were above human frailty.

Re: # 5
dear nb...I have a lot of respect for Freud as well as Jung. Both made great contributions to human psychology. But they also had the dark side of their personalities as they were human. Some Freudians and Jungians have hard time accepting that dark side. That is why they avoid discussing the role of Sabrina in Freud and Jung's lives. I enjoy biographies as facts can be as fascinating as fiction...sincerely sohail

#5 Posted by nb,

Freud's relationship with his sister-in-law

You mean his 'saali' or his 'bhabi'? If it was the former I guess these are 'adh ghar waali' !

Re: # 7
Freud's affair was with his sister in law...his wife's sister...his saali...not his brother's wife...bhabi

grow up drsohail, grow up!
Well said, Hamzad and Hurricane,
This guy drsohail is a case of arrested development - such a paindoo and pervert that it hard to believe that he has practice in Canada. But simplestons are everywhere. This guy has such fixation with sex and religion that he needs therapy himself big time. Can someon help him?
In the name of revealing the dark side he relishes in pissing around every platform as he has not found the proper place to discharge ... grow up doc!

PKSZ saab,

While your angst agsint psycho babble may indeed be well placed, your harshness against Dr. Sohail is uncalled for. I feel that he speaks from one of his heart valves and says things as simply as necessary. This is mistaken by others and they think he's a simpleton.

Now, Dr. Sohail is a humanist. Which means that he loves humanity. This is a fantastic thing. One of his heart valves is open (as opposed to most psycho babblists, and most of us on this site, whose hearts are shut). To have the heart fully open and expressive, Dr. Sohail should love humans without restraint, for through that act, he will find that we are all indeed one. Different manifestations from the same divine truth. His heart will shine then.

Hope this clarifies things PKSZ saab?

Re: # 9
Mr. PKSZ, do you intend to say that Dr. Sohail should say what you want him to say? If that is the case, it will never happen and you will be busy with your rant...well into the future.

Dr. Sohail writes in simple language, which sends a psuedo-signal that the content is also simplistic...but as you continue to read, you find that..."this is exactly what I wanted to know, but could not find in books"...He is doing a difficult job of teaching people like you, so that they could grow up and tolerate the thought pattern of others.

Re: # 11 Harry Cane

"humanist. Which means that he loves humanity"

Humanism is something else my friend. Do read some more and don't be deceived. Although I dislike quoting Wicked-pedia:

"Humanism is a broad category of ethical philosophies..... based on the ability to determine right and wrong by appeal to universal human qualities — particularly rationality....Humanism entails a commitment to the search for truth and morality through human means in support of human interests...In focusing on the capacity for self-determination, humanism rejects the validity of transcendental justifications, such as a dependence on belief without reason, the supernatural, or texts of allegedly divine origin. Humanists endorse universal morality based on the commonality of the human condition...."

Do you see the Godlessness, man-made non-sense pitched against what God has bestowed upon us? Down with the Humanists!

Peace.

Tahir sahib,

thanks for the wiki quote. And amigo, don't worry about quoting wiki, it has been proven to be as accurate or as inaccurate as encyclopedia brittanica.

re: Humanism, yes I know where they head. However, don't you see that loving God's creation without bias eventually leads you to realizing the magnificent creator? ;)
