CPTSD

Understanding The Complex Post Trauma Stress Disorder.

--

Came across a post about this in WP.

It's really a praiseworthy one.

Still in the whole world, I have yet to find one who is not afflicted with this!

Life of all and every individual soul is such a nightmare! I do suspect if even a so-called liberated / enlightened is free from this.

Yes, Such is the Fact / Reality.

Fear and greed follow desire and hope. This basic instinct becomes a tendency in the individual that gets transformed  soon into what we call C P T S D. 

abhinivesha / अभिनिवेश is a single word in the Vedanta and Yoga that explains well the full sense of this term :

C P S T D. 

With "अभि" and  "नि" उपसर्ग / prefix, √विश् the verb-root, the word अभि-नि-विश् then  becomes अभिनिवेश .

The word prefix "अभि" implies -- from behind and in front as well. The word prefix  "नि"  implies -- utmost, extreme,  complete. The verb-root √विश् conveys the sense of entering, being possessed and being possessed by.

Interestingly the verb "possess" itself is  द्विकर्मक धातु  in the संस्कृत language. 

In Sanskrit language a verb-root could be either सकर्मक and / or अकर्मक or even द्विकर्मक  in some cases.

Another way to explain this is the form of a verb-root as :

परस्मैपदी, आत्मनेपदी, and उभयपदी .

For example a verb where there is an object and the agent (कर्ता) the action performed upon the object by the agent makes the verb  परस्मैपदी .

"Ram goes to school" is the example of such an action.

"Mohan is laughing / smiling" is another where there is no specific object of the action.

"Ram is sad". It's still another example where there is either a hidden object or no object at all.

An activity / action could be either pure physical / instrumental one or a mental where the consciousness is implicit or explicit.

Consciousness  itself is therefore kind of a vector entity. Consciousness alone the one that possesses and also what is  the possessed.

The physical body and the world also both are made of the same material elements but organism is an animate / animated being because of the vital Force possessing and possessed by the physical body.

This vital Force (प्राण) is the "known", while the "consciousness / चेतना" is always the "knowing" only.

In between the two and as a complex of both, there arises a sense of being "I" .

This very sense of  being "I" identifies the body as itself and is identified as oneself also.

This is therefore the very C P T S D.

Consciousness keeps on incessantly identifying with so many objects and therefore with the very first sense of being "I" gets transformed into the thought "I am".

Basically it's always non-verbal, but as soon it arises becomes a thought in the verbal form - especially in the humans just because only the humans have a language in the thought-form.

The salient question therefore is :

"Exactly 'who' is there possessed by and possessing the C P S T D?"

Therefore literally and as a fact, there could be no one indeed, who could said to be free of this disorder.
