Shizophrenia is a psychiatric disorder where the psychiatric patient cannot distinguish between reality and irreality. This situation is a form of psychosis. What happens is that the patient thinks or believes that some aspect of his or her life is real, when the Establishment does not. For example, the jewish psychiatric patient might have the delusion that it is good to celebrate the massacre of of the jews at the Battle of Masada on the jewish holiday of Hannukah. Of course, this type of ideation is psychotic because it is not rational to celebrate the massacre of your own people in a battle, rather it is rational to celebrate a victory in battle.
Thus, schizophrenia involves a certain splitting of the personality into black and white extremes, accomanied by a loss of the use of logic. Thus, the psychiatric patient may think that Good is Evil, or that Winning is Losing, or that Mayrtrdom is good, or that Up is Down, or that Woman is Man, or that Sucess is Evil, etc. In order to attempt to cure such schizophrenia it is necessary to help the psychiatric patient to help build a middle ground, that is, a gray area in between the black and white. Thus, the patient should be taught, following Einstein and Quantum Physics, that reality is relative, except for logic which is a universal. Thus, the patient can be taught that reality is relative, using the following meditative mantra:
"Reality is Relatively Real"
"Your imagination is relatively real"
"Sense experience is relatively real"
"Logic is the only Universal"
"Logic is defined as that which is not illogical"
"That which is illogical is defined as that which involves
a logical contradiction, such as attempting to assert
that an Apple and no Apple can exist in your hand at
the same time and in the same place"
"It is a logical contradiction to assert that A and not A can
exist at the same time and in the same place"
Of course if you are under the treatment of a psychiatrist or a psychologist,
you should continue with that treatment even if you are engaging in the
meditative exercises above.
