Beyond the glow of the screen - on attention, silence, and human presence

Sometimes I wonder when exactly we began to fear the empty spaces in our own lives. Not the great emptiness that comes with separation, loss, or unfulfilled dreams, but those small intervals we once barely noticed: a few minutes before waking, the journey home, the anticipation of someone's arrival, the afternoon light falling across a table, the silence between two thoughts. Today, it seems that every such pause creates a need within us to fill it. Almost unconsciously, our hand reaches for the phone, the screen lights up, and a foreign world enters our consciousness before we have even had the opportunity to meet our own. The day begins not with the feeling of returning to life, but with checking what is happening somewhere else. News, messages, images, other people's anxieties, achievements, and opinions - everything enters through a small illuminated surface while our own thoughts are still somewhere in the half-dreaming space of the night.

 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐬𝐲𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐲 is a type of therapy that integrates spirituality and psychology to help individuals find meaning and purpose in their lives. It views the person as a holistic being with physical, psychological, and spiritual aspects, and seeks to help individuals connect with their inner selves and the spiritual dimension of their existence. Transpersonal therapy may include techniques such as meditation, visualization, and exploration of spiritual experiences, and is often used in conjunction with other forms of therapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy or psychodynamic therapy. The goal of transpersonal therapy is to promote personal growth and well-being, and to help individuals find a sense of connectedness with others, the natural world, and the larger universe.

Ken Wilber's concept of the "centaur" is a central idea in his trans personal philosophy and therapy. According to Wilber, the centaur represents a stage of human development where individuals integrate their rational and intuitive ways of knowing, transcending the limitations of either approach in isolation. This integration of rational and intuitive ways of knowing is seen as essential for personal growth and spiritual development.

In transpersonal therapy, the centaur stage is seen as a crucial step in the process of individuation and self-discovery. Therapy may focus on helping individuals integrate their rational and intuitive aspects, and to explore their spiritual experiences and beliefs. This may involve techniques such as mindfulness, meditation, and dream work, among others. The goal is to help individuals expand their consciousness, connect with their inner selves and the spiritual dimension of their existence, and develop a more holistic and integrated understanding of themselves and the world around them.
