When we think of Right View and Right Resolve, there is a lot of thinking involved and what Buddhists term as Verbal Fabrication has an effect on how we feel. How we heard others talk, shows up in how we talk to ourselves and others.

Like in his book on dreams, Freud begins "The Joke and Its Relation to the Unconscious" with a survey of expert opinions on the workings of humour. They include novelist Jean Paul, psychiatrist Emil Kraepelin, and philosophers, Theodor Vischer, Kuno Fischer, and Theodor Lipps. Their opinions include ways to view humour as "playful judgment", "a free play of ideas", "sense in nonsense", "bafflement and light dawning." Lipp emphsizes brevity, "wit says what it does say, not always in few, but always in too few words." This allows the listener the pleasure to figure things out. With more depth some of the opinions move closer to where Freud is heading. To have wit is to have "the ability to...find hidden similarities", and "linking two ideas which in some way are contrasted with each other."

Valentine's Day is coming soon and instead of something light and fluffy, it's a good a time as any to do a deep dive into intimate relationships. Social connections and intimate relationships are the boogeyman for many people. Some prefer being alone and others feel that intimate relationships are worth it, even if there are a lot of conflicts. For them we are making social memories that last a lifetime. Love is always worth it! Then there are another group of people who treat it as a hobby and think that it's not worth taking seriously. It's a cynical game where most of the fun is in the anticipation. Consummation leads to boredom.

When a meditator has a number of years under their belt they find that there are particular insights that work together to bring the meditator to the equipoise they have now. These insights involve the proper use of the attention span. Looking at a Daniel Kahneman’s work and a few key guided meditations here is a compilation of what I found helpful.

A cycle of abuse that continues from generation to generation. Habits can operate unconsciously repeating what we didn’t like about our parents. How does it happen and how can it be stopped?

Blog: http://psychreviews.org/sublimation-sigmund-freud/
If sexual craving be repressed, why do some people become pathological, and others can instead successfully channel their desire into great works of art and literature? If everything is about sexual craving, then how do people get out of bed, and enjoy vigorous and intense hobbies and interests. For Freud this is explained as a transfer of energy from sex to ambition. He called this mechanism, Sublimation.
