Holographic Psychology

A Paradigm Shift in Living

WHERE DID HOLOGRAPHIC PSYCHOLOGY ORIGINATE?

HOLOGRAPHIC PSYCHOLOGY is the brainchild of an independent research team in Southern California headed by Dr. James Pottenger, integrating ancient wisdom and leading edge discoveries. He and his research team have spent fifty years developing HOLOGRAPHIC PSYCHOLOGY by examining psychology, philosophy and religion, thus creating a synthesis of behavioristic, humanistic and transpersonal psychology. This system reveals that the above listed psychological schools correlate with paradigm shifts within human consciousness, bringing into existence new levels of understanding, altering the individual's world views. These paradigm shifts expose three different levels of comprehension in which humans express their reality.

KEY FACTORS

The biggest change in comprehension will be the realization that meaning in life is expressed subjectively and not objectively as believed for centuries. The subjectivity will be recognized as psychological dynamics of a human being expressing at his/her current level of comprehension. When this realization dawns, the individual has gained 'LOCATION OF COMPREHENSION', 'FESTSTELLUNG' (A German word encompassing objective and subjective realization that arises in second level comprehension).

It presents a giant leap in understanding in which the individual becomes aware that language is a symbolic means that is interpreted subjectively and is not based on other people, places or things. Interpreting language therefore mirrors the individual's current self-image.

HOW DOES HOLOGRAPHIC PSYCHOLOGY DIFFER FROM CONVENTIONAL PSYCHOLOGY?

HOLOGRAPHIC PSYCHOLOGY is an abrupt change from the customary behavioristic psychology because its focus lies in actualizing the potential within the individual rather than feeling controlled or victimized by his or her environment. The fact that habitual negative habits may be harmful to the individual's state of mind is generally not yet widely accepted. HOLOGRAPHIC PSYCHOLOGY can make the individual aware that his or her reality can be changed by examining his or her belief systems.

Even today behavioristic orientation is still dominating most cultures. It is where the object of blame is outside the individual, where someone or something else is responsible for our circumstances and our feelings. Realizing that the causal factor to reaction is due to an internal or "inner" psychological evaluation is new to a first reality understanding yet it was practiced centuries ago by giants like The Buddha, Jesus and Spinoza. For example, Jesus taught that the kingdom of God is within but first level of awareness is not sufficiently developed to comprehend or test its true meaning.

Realizing where LOCATION OF COMPREHENSION takes place will change our therapeutic approaches to healing and will end the belief that the cause for unhappiness in the individual's life is based on "external" circumstances. HOLOGRAPHIC PSYCHOLOGY principles eliminate the middle man or the subject or object of blame as the individual begins to realize where his or her feelings and interpretations take place. The psychological principles have to do with unfolding hidden talents that have been asleep perhaps for decades (pre-existing potential) rather than focusing on areas that do not work beneficially for the individual. What is often expressed as pathological behavior emerged from limiting beliefs that were accepted and then nurtured on a daily basis. These beliefs created a current reality (self-image) for the individual and subsequently justified their behavior or situation.
