Our materialism is destroying our soul, we need to resolve this inside us if we ever want to have happiness.

Now, in Integral Psychoanalysis, we have studied these psychological aspects scientifically. And we’ve seen that what helps heal people is faith. But what is faith?  Faith is the deep acceptance of that which is truly valuable and essential, which is always present and real and good; faith in the validity of doing good things and taking action that is more pure, and believing that what is everlasting are the values of beauty and hope and justice.

In the Middle Ages, Christianity and the Church considered the material life, or the “flesh” as the Christians called it, as evil. They saw the body, the instincts, the desires as evil in themselves. This is not what Dr. Keppe is proposing in his scientific work. What he has verified, though, is that the most neurotic and psychotic people are much more attached to the material aspects of life than to the psychological. This is not saying that the materal is evil and should be eliminated from life, of course. But this attitude of putting the materal aspects as more important than the psychological represents our big mistake. Because if our lives are spent looking only after our food, sex, clothing and material needs, we waste the best of our beings and our lives.
