Since Aristotle, man has organized his knowledge
compartmentally, in separate and unrelated groups -- Science,
Religion, Philosophy, Sex, Work, Relaxation, etc. The main
emphasis in his language, his system of storing knowledge, has
been the identification of objects rather than on the
relationships between objects. He is now forced to use his tools
of reasoning separately and for one situation at a time. Had man
been able to see past this hypnotic way of thinking, to distrust
it, and to resystematize his knowledge so that is would all be
related, he would now enjoy the perfect sanity which comes from
being able to deal with life in its entirety.
Recently, it has become possible for man to chemically alter
his mental state and thus alter his point of view, that is, his
own basic relation with the outside world which determines how he
stores his information. He can then restructure his thinking and
change his language so that his thoughts bear more relation to
his life and his problems, therefore approaching them more
sanely.
