The cause of anxiety can´t be found in the content of anxiety

The cause of anxiety can´t be found in the content of anxiety.

The cause shall be found in the separation of the analyst and the analysed.

You have the existential condition, the anxiety.

This is the fact, it is not in itself a problem.

Then the analyst places himself outside the anxiety, analyses it in order to discover the cause of it, compares with earlier and hopes and desires something else, namely to get rid of it.

The analyst slides therewith off from the Now´s fact.

And the Now´s facts, seen from the analysts´ past or future, become a problem, anxiety-causing.

When the analyst is seeking the cause of the anxiety by comparing with earlier, and by desiring something else, he only isolates himself further, and therewith increases the anxiety.

Truth is to be completely free from all prejudices and historical limitary influences

As a Philosophical Globetrotter you must put into question whether you, in order to get rid of anxiety, continual must analyse the content of anxiety in order to discover the endless many causes in your own individual life.

It is namely so, that if you - when you begin to analyse the content of anxiety - have to discover something true, then you must be completely and altogether free from all prejudices and historical limitary influences.

Otherwise, if your conception in any way is being distorted, then this distortion increases as you continue your analysis.

So, in art of life it is not the problem´s content that is interesting. What is interesting is the one who is seeking to solve the problem.

It is the separation of the analyst and the analysed, which is the cause of the problems, when we speak about human problems.

Analysis is not the answer to anxiety. When you have analysed yourself for years, you are still anxious

Analysis of anxiety includes, not only the analyst and the analysed, but also time; time in the sense, that there are so many reactions, associations of ideas and memories, which have to be analysed.

But also time where many other factors arise, which will give the whole thing another direction: the comparison with earlier, and the hope and the desire after something else.

And then, when you in many days and years have analysed yourself, you are still anxious. 

You are not one with yourself.
