Dr. Erich Fromm's Thinking On The Mike Wallace Show

There are some fundamental things that keep an individual feel good about himself.
Among these would be:
That he is doing a job that is meaninful.
That he enjoys doing it.
That what he is doing gives pleasure to others as well.
That he is contributing to the stability of his community.
That he matters.
That others matter to him as well.

Dr. Erich Fromm studies concerns and effects when these fundamentals are disrupted by manipulative
business interests and big bureauracy.

Mike Wallace interviews Dr. Erich Fromm on his thinking on some specific fundamentals in the fifties.

Now in the year 2013, we have the benefit of hindsights to evaluate Dr. Fromm as being prophetically spot-on in his analysis on the American situation.

Can extrapolation be made on the glocal situation in specific countries?

Fascinating Patterns From A Series Of Numbers

The ability to make connection with different types of infomation is recognised as a higher level cognitive skill. Among these higher level skills, is also the ability to infer; to interpolate; to extrapolate; to deduce.  So is the ability to see patterns; to read and draw conclusion and meaning from different categories of information. All these abilities working in tendem, takes the human being into exciting areas of inventions.

There is more.

Besides the cognitive aspect of processing information, is the affective area of feeling: of wonder and reverence. 

There is the aspect of sensing, commonly called intuition.

And then there is the elusive aspect that the mystics experience: spirituality. A presence that they call: Abba; Allah; Yewah.

In the midst of an alive human being is the reality of growth itself in nature.

Why does growth takes place the way it does? There is a typical physical path. There is a fixed chemical formation. There is a predictable biological structure. There is a design coherence. There is a mathematical order. There is an inherent calibrated-auto-time-clock guiding what-happens-where-when in the growing-organism. 

These are very intriguing aspects. Especially the awareness that the smallest in an individual entity to the largest in the solar system share similiar growth patterns!

Here. Revisit the areas of fascination:
