On google it was written “Collifor is a kind of disease in which the patient starts shivering on seeing something so scary that reminds of their past incidences.In such a state the patient is neither able to speak nor react.Moreover the brain stops working momentarily and the patient goes into an unconscious state.”Then DJ googled about the medicine and found that “Soti is a rare medicine which the people took in the 18th century to minimize their fear and to gain strength.However there are many side-effects which includes eyes becoming red,hands and legs start bleeding,person goes into an unconscious state for a moment and after the effects erases off he/she unknowingly undoes the things which they did in that state”.Seeing this everyone began to think that some other alternatives might be there for such disease as Soti had more bad effects than the good ones.They even decided to ask Lyra about her past so that they can relate the disease and the medicine and so everyone decided to call it a night.

In the morning when Lyra woke up Raila, Riha and Nori asked Lyra about her past to which she replied “When I was a kid I had Asthma so severe that even small things could scare me very easily.I felt so weak that hardly I could scream and react.This problem went on increasing until one day I was unable to feel my legs and hands.So my parents approached every specialist that they could fine but they failed to find a cure as the medical field was backdated then.At last we heard a doctor named Tir Vaider. The name was so weird and even no one knew about the medicines which he used to prescribe because he made those medicines himself and only he knew what were they made up of.After taking those medicines only I felt relieved.But the doctor did not say anything about the side-effects.He was in fact so sweet that he prescribed some medicines for free to my parents as they were also having some joint problems and with that they also felt good.Maybe professor is also suffering from similar disease and so he takes those pills.”

Hearing this they asked Lyra to take some other medicines instead of that which she has been taking for some days as unless they don’t solve the matter many lives were at stakes and so Lyra agreed.On coming out of the room three of them decided to meet Lyra’s parents and go her house which she lived earlier.They knew that if they ask Lyra about it she would be very upset and so they decided to go without informing her by bluffing that they were going for some field work and would be back soon.As they were about to go the warden of the hostel caught them in the corridor and asked them to meet her at the office.When they went there she told them the watchman had seen them sneaking out of their hostels with two boys.The girls tried to explain but the warden was so strict that she did not even hear a word and grounded them for a week so that they could only go to college and nowhere else for a week.At that moment they were looking each other as they were about to reach the truth.And so with a heavy heart they headed back to their rooms.

At night when everyone were busy in their rooms studying,suddenly the hostel warden called everyone outside the professor’s house.On reaching there they saw a dead body of a boy lying in the lawn.The professor then said “This boy came to my lawn to ask me doubts regarding some topic and so I helped him.As I was entering the house after clearing his doubts he asked me for water to drink.I asked him to come in and drink but he said that he was busy in some project and so he couldn’t enter.After that when I came out with water I saw him lay dead here.God knows what has happened meanwhile.”Then they called the watchman and asked him regarding this to which he replied that he had no idea regarding this as was in the loo.At this the professor got so angry that he began to shout “You idiot.Why do I pay you then if can’t follow your duty properly?You are fired”.Seeing this behaviour of the professor all the students got scared and so the wardens asked them to go to their respective rooms and sleep.Meanwhile the police were investigating and the warden asked the officers “Sir are you really looking into the matter or not.Two students have lost their lives recently and no news could be heard from you.If you don’t take the matter seriously the college authorities will have to approach the higher authorities in order to get justice”.At this the officer got angry and said “We are trying our best we can mam but since there are no evidences or proofs like murder weapon,fingerprints or anything we can’t come to a conclusion.We are doing our duties.Please do no interfere in the investigation procedures”.Saying this the police sealed the professor’s house and left and everyone went to their respective places.But since professor’s house was sealed so he decided to go to his farmhouse for shelter.

What really happened that night?Who killed that boy?Were there really no evidences or the evidences were erased to keep a secret?

Getting deep into the unconscious can take a while. In the end, the results are worth it. Adapted from Inside the Mind of a Psychiatrist Thanks for watching, Art #psychotherapy, #psychoanalysis, #unconsciousmind, #psychiatrist

●⛓● On Sages & Storms ✦ A metaphorical treatise on the unconscious mind. It rejects the "programming" model in favor of one of dialogue, respect, and dangerous negotiation. Consider this a core piece of hypnotic philosophy.

✦ ᚺ ᚢ ᚲ ᚺ ✦

The unconscious is not a servant. It is an old, stubborn, sharp-tongued sage living in the basement.

It does not execute orders. It responds.

Sometimes with a yes. Sometimes with a silence that chills your blood. Sometimes it sends you a dream three months later, when you’ve already forgotten the question.

What resists is not a “programming error.” It is a wall—built for a reason. Often by the unconscious itself.

Sometimes that reason no longer serves, and with care, a door can be negotiated.

Other times, that wall holds the entire house together. And tearing it down means killing the subject.

The hypnotist who believes he “programs” the mind is a child with a toy remote, shouting at a storm to calm down.

Those of us who know better are closer to storm fishermen.

We learn the language of the wind. Sometimes we manage to soften it. Sometimes to redirect it. Never to make it disappear.

Anyone who promises obedience is selling mirages.

And mirages, in the desert of the mind, leave you dying of thirst.

Surrealism in Art: A Journey into the Unconscious 🎨✨

Surrealism in art, a captivating 20th-century movement, delves deep into the mysterious realms of the unconscious mind. It blends dreams, fantasies, and irrational thoughts to create striking and thought-provoking visuals that continue to inspire art enthusiasts worldwide. 🌌

Emerging in the early 1920s, surrealism transcended traditional boundaries of creativity. Artists like Salvador Dalí, René Magritte, and Max Ernst revolutionized the art world with their dreamlike, often bizarre, compositions. This movement sought to unlock the imagination, combining unexpected elements that challenge perceptions of reality. 🖌️

The core of surrealism in art lies in its ability to connect with the subconscious. Artists used techniques like automatic drawing, free association, and dream analysis to create works that evoked deep emotional and psychological responses. By embracing chaos and rejecting logic, surrealism broke free from the constraints of conventional art, offering a new perspective on human creativity and thought. 🌠

One of the most iconic examples of surrealism in art is Salvador Dalí's The Persistence of Memory, with its melting clocks symbolizing the fluidity of time. Similarly, René Magritte's The Son of Man, featuring a man’s face obscured by a floating apple, embodies the surrealist fascination with mystery and the unexpected. 🎭

Today, surrealism continues to influence contemporary art, literature, and even film. It reminds us to explore our inner thoughts, embrace the unusual, and see the world through a more imaginative lens.

Sigmund Freud was an Austrian neurologist and the founder of psychoanalysis, a clinical method for evaluating and treating pathologies seen as originating from conflicts in the psyche, through dialogue between patient and psychoanalyst, and the distinctive theory of mind and human agency derived from it. 

Founder of Psychoanalysis: Sigmund Freud is best known as the father of psychoanalysis, a method for treating psychopathology through dialogue between a patient and a psychoanalyst. His work laid the foundation for modern psychotherapy and has profoundly impacted psychology, psychiatry, and even popular culture.

Theory of the Unconscious Mind: Freud developed the theory that human behaviour is largely influenced by the unconscious mind, which includes desires, memories, and experiences that are not accessible to the conscious mind. He introduced the concepts of the id, ego, and superego as the three parts of the human psyche.

Dream Interpretation: Freud believed that dreams are a form of wish fulfilment and provide insights into the unconscious mind. His book "The Interpretation of Dreams" (1899) is one of his most famous works, where he detailed his theories on dream analysis and the significance of dreams in understanding unconscious desires.

Developmental Stages: Freud proposed that human development occurs in a series of stages, each centred on erogenous zones. These stages are oral, anal, phallic, latent, and genital. He believed that experiences during these stages profoundly impact an individual’s personality and behaviour in adulthood.
