This is "THE" question, is it not? And how one answers this question is more important than hardly anyone realizes. Unfortunately the vast majority of people have no idea that they are unaware of two-thirds of themselves? And a century of denial of this fact by modern mental health has only exacerbated this fundamental problem in the West.

In the early 1900's, the field of Psychology made a serious mistake when it allowed a behavioral scientist named B.F. Skinner, and a group of fellow behavioral scientists to call themselves "psychologists"... even though none of them had any training in Psychology, and were in fact unknowingly frightened of the Esoteric MIND realm within themselves. It was not long before Skinner, and his new idea of "Behaviorism" [which was a delusional projection from the DM=SI of his own MIND, announced that it was no longer necessary to submit oneself to a course of personal psychotherapy... since he believed there was nothing within Man that could account for the behavior of Man. I speak to this in my book: Death of Psychology That Nobody Noticed, published by Publish America.

It is not at all possible to competently or properly render help to another person suffering from a conflict within that person's MIND, unless one has a thorough and experiential Knowledge of ones own MIND realm. In point of fact, when one attempts to "treat" such a person without the proper experiential training and required "Knowledge", one will actually exacerbate the deeply repressed misperceptions that make up the "conflict" that is that persons problem. This of course makes matters worse for that person.

The abuse of individuals who are seeking professional help in America today is staggering to me, and quite unknown to the public. Since modern mental health [or what I refer to as BS&bp [Behavioral Science and the oxymoron "behavioral psychology"] denies the MIND and Spiritual realms within Man, the field is unaware of the phenomenon I refer to as DEC or "Direct Esoteric Communication" that takes place between the MIND of the therapist and the MIND of the person being "treated". A lack of understanding of the Esoteric realms within Man results in a great many problems for Americans that are not "seen", since these occur at levels within peoples MINDs and the physical symptoms of such "mental" damage is often delayed. .....In which case all say what a shame it is that the person did this or that... and the motivation for the person doing this or that is never assigned to the incompetent treatment that person received.

This dirty little secret is unknown generally by the public and BS&bp is equally unaware of its role in the subtle damaging of Americans.

The Esoteric MIND realm within Man is a completely fascinating study. A lifetime can be spent in this study and still there is much one can learn. To imagine that one can learn anything of significance by simply reading some books or listening to a number of lectures is the "delusional" nature of the illusion of life. It is the subtle insanity quietly operating within every person. To counter this natural situation within people "should" be the role of Psychology.... if anyone actually studied Psychology anymore.

The ONLY way to study the Esoteric within Man is to do so from within the Esoteric realms existing within oneself. Within the Esoteric realms themselves... is thought too difficult by many, and they are not ready to do so, and so they are correct. But for those individuals to set rules for those of us who can do so is wrong. This is my primary point in all my work. The faculty that allows one to access the Esoteric realms within oneself is ones "intuition", which is a faculty of ones Apapsyche, which is part of ones Spirituality. Nothing in the actual study of Psychology lends itself to ones brain or thinking...... Surprise, surprise!

The single roadblock facing people in need of what ESOED has to offer them is oddly enough, education and modern mental health. Or the two fields that people are told will help them seek what they need to discover. The problem is, the "professionals" in these fields are fine if what one needs to discover can be known by the brain... but if what a person needs to discover can only be discovered via ones intuition and ones Apapsyche, then these professionals are useless [and perhaps even worse than useless, they are even harmful]. This is precisely the reason we absolutely must find a way to introduce ESOED to the public.

Alas, the tens of thousands of professionals in education and mental health have no idea that their MINDs can cause them to "think" that what they are doing is quite proper. Even when those they are helping get worse, and worse, they remain convinced that what they "think" is correct is correct. Unfortunately there is no way to convince them otherwise. This is the reason ESOED must be a parallel track to education and an alternative to mental health. And it must be entirely independent of both education and mental health if it is to succeed in providing certain people what they cannot receive otherwise.
