Letting go to let be: Psychoanalysis as creative flow

This paper explores experiences of surrender to an aspect of mind that is unconfined, empty of dualistic concepts, and lucidly aware. Ghent’s concept of surrender, Farber’s unconscious will, and Buddhist philosophers’ essence of mind all link to creative processes described by Poincaré and Mozart. This impressionistic collage points to the spaciousness to know beyond our usual stories. From this essential mind more wholesome actions proceed.
