It is "exceedingly difficult to believe that the psyche is nothing, or that an imaginary fact is unreal. it is only not there where a nearsighted mind seeks it. it is existent but not in a physical form. it is an almost rediculous prejudice to assume that existence can only be physical. as a matter of fact the only form of existence we know of immediately is psychic. we might well say, on the contrary, that physical existence is merely an inference, since we know of matter only in so far as we perceive psychic images transmitted by the senses."

~c.g. jung, psychology and religion

well said, my dear psychonaut.
