Keeping Cosmic Serpent’s Spirit Alive

“The term Schizoid refers to an individual the totality of whoseexperience is split in two main ways: in the first place there’s arent in his relation with his world and the second, there’s adisruption of his relation with himself. Such a person is not able toexperience himself together with others or at home in the world, buton the contrary he experiences himself in despairing aloneness andisolation; moreover he does not experience himself as a completeperson but rather as ‘Split’ in various ways, perhaps as a Mind moreor less tenuously linked to a body, as two or more selves and so on.”R D. Laing. ‘The Divided Self’
