I used to think of myself as not Cartesian at all; but once a medium, friend of my mother told me to “try to be less Cartesian”.
I then thought more thoroughly about the matter, and realised that although I fancied myself as, let’s say unCartesian, I wasn’t at all. A part of me (rather conscious) isn’t in the Cartesian scheme at all, seeing it as obsolete and anything but reliable and able to handle the “Whole Stuff”; on the other hand, I found out hat less consciously I still relied on this system, finding it more secure and comfortable.
I think on the path to a greater love of myself (which is definitely not the same thing as being in love with myself) it will just happen, being more at ease with what I know and feel is true and what I hope is true for matters of comfort.
