Analytische Psychokatharsis
We come across such terms and principles in Psychoanalysis, the most significant form of scientific psychology found in the western world today. Especially in French psychoanalyst J. Lacan's version of Freud's drive-structure concept do we find perception drives (drive to perceive, to look) and invocation drives (drive to express, to speak) that function in the unconscious, and which are predominant. Actually, the drive to look is nothing other than 'chit', a kind of primary conscious, an immediate gaze, or better and simply put: an IT SHINES. IT SHINES means that something primarily visual, a primary visual awareness, or primary visibility is constantly at work within and around us. It is at work when images are being produced in dreams as well as in 'light' experiences in meditation, and last but not the least, this is also the most subtle of physical reality.
After all, the conscious is nothing other than a 'reciprocated gaze', a reflection, or a 'primal form' of looking or of perception. In the same way we can substitute 'vritis' with the drive to speak, which is the most substantial form of invocation: the IT SPEAKS. Lacan says: "The unconscious is structured in the same manner a language is...", it behaves like an IT SPEAKS within and around us. A combination of the SHINES and of the SPEAKS actually requires to be taken under command and setting yoga and psychoanalysis into relation with one another supplies us with a simple tool to do just that.
In Surat Shabd Yoga command is taken of the combination of the SHINES and SPEAKS by applying and reverberating mentaly Sanskrit formulations. But for a scientifc method we can use linguistic styled formulations which I call FORMULA-WORDS.

However, Lane’s work seems to bear two problems. It is only – as he says himself – ‘sociological-political’. The entire area of the ‘mystic-spiritual’ can’t be accommodated in science, and Lane can only attempt to do so (and that, only in an approach) by taking two different standpoints: working scientifically as a sociologist and for the other area (‘spiritual’), just having faith, being religious, or having a creed.

So, ‘reincarnations’ are authentic, though not realistic. They are – as just mentioned above – classical ‘déjà vu’s’! They are unconscious, dreamy, though not completely true, nor are they authenticated in clear, let alone scientific, language (there is so a ‘jamais raconté’ which has to be told urgently). They are genuine appearances, signifiers1, though they are not real incidences.

We can already enter the entire universe by taking the position of being subjects, and insofar as the universe is regarded as the sum of all signifiers. We only need to adhere to the primal combination of the SHINES / SPEAKS, this, precisely, are where Yoga and psychoanalysis are identical.

We have here another indication as to why a biography from the perspectives of western psychology, history and science is not necessarily appropriate in describing the life of an Indian saint, on the one hand. But, on the other, there is a special incentive in it, namely in writing a biography in a different manner than is usual. Subsequently, the task encompasses not only narrating on the pure biographic of daily data, but rather even taking into consideration such things as the references of events to areas of his teachings, to the development of theories in general, or to western science, such as to psychoanalysis.

Lacan's theory of the 'symbolic phallus' supplies us with bridgework.1 While the slash or fractional stroke (between the SHINES / SPEAKS in Surat Shabd Yoga) depicts upright concentration, establishment and attention in meditation going beyond these complexes etc., it stands for the interpretation of an erecting and attention-grasping analytic Eros in psychotherapy.
