Description
The bodily cogito and individuation as an embodiment and concretisation
seminar, May 10, 2025
With physical bodies, we are already the most naturally demarcated creatures, differing most markedly from the human collective. However, this physical embodiment, which we acquire at birth, is nothing in itself, for it is only through psycho-physical development that we gradually acquire certain individualised bodily-physical experiences with our five senses of bodily cogito, which interact with the other two dimensions – the personal spirit and the emerging and gradually developing personal mindset. It is only through the bodily cogito – the bodily perception, action and creation of bodily images (visual, olfactory, gustatory, tactile and auditory) – that we can truly individuate ourselves, for it is only in this way that we can create and develop both the individual and the collective world of the ‘here and now’. We will examine the three cosmological archetypes of embodiment – Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo – to ground the ways and patterns of our embodiment and concretisation in the process of individuation.
The seminar takes place online via Zoom on Saturday from 4.30 to 6.30 pm CEST (TIME CONVERTER). It consists of 90 minutes of theoretical presentation and additional 30 minutes of practical work with the IPAL Method with 2 volunteers from the group.
