un soi fondamental
Explanation:
"Par un joli paradoxe de l'histoire, alors qu'elles partaient à la recherche d'un Soi fondamental - la fameuse conscience de soi, l"unité de l'esprit -, les sciences cognitives qui passionnent Varela n'ont trouvé, elles aussi, qu'une conscience divisée, fragmentée, plurielle, activiste." http://fredericjoignot.blogspirit.com/archive/2006/06/23/fra...

"Dés lors le malade réalise qu’il est d’abord imprégné par sa forme informante , ses motivations & que sa guérison en dépend fondamentalement, qu’il n’est plus pensé par le groupe mais d’abord par un soi fondamental dont il gère avec plus ou moins de bonheur l’intégration au groupe...qui ne peut en aucun cas le remplacer, de façon optimale." http://www.amessi.org/PRENDRE-sa-SANTE-en-MAIN-par-les
