Das Wirken der Seele: Ideen zu einer organischen Psychologie

The author sets out a fresh framework for understanding the mind, arguing that the soul is not a static, immaterial substance but a living, ever‑changing flow of experience. Drawing on the so‑called “actuality theory,” he shows how consciousness itself constitutes the whole of psychic reality, grounding mental life in observable processes rather than hidden essences.

This approach places voluntary striving—the will to act and to set goals—at the heart of psychological dynamics. It is presented as a monistic, evolutionary principle that respects the autonomy of the psyche while keeping it firmly embedded in the physical world. By weaving together insights from psychology, biology and philosophy, the work invites listeners to rethink the relationship between mind and body and to explore a model that sees mental development as an organic, self‑organising process.
