Unconsciousness

“It can also be said that India discovered the unconsciousness earlier than the Western psychologists.  For them the unconscious consists in the totality of the impressions which slumber in the individual as the inheritance from his previous existence.  The buddhist technique of meditation, which is concerned with the latent forces, is thus a fore-runner of modem psychoanalysis, of autogenic mental training, etc.”
