H. (Author)Description:Unusual Perceptual, Or Perception-Like, Experiences, Often Meaningful To Those Who Have Them, May Be Sympathetically Or Unsympathetically Interpreted By Others One Interpretation, Especially When Voices Are Associated With Unusual Behaviour, Is That They Are Evidence Of Mental Disorder Ostensibly Such Interpretations Are Sympathetic (Showing Concern For Someone Who Is Ill) But In Practice They Are Used To Deny The Meaning And Value Of The Experiences For Those Concerned, Thus Depriving Them (And Others) Of Creative And Innovative Ways Of Understanding The Human Condition The Question Is Thus One Of The Meaning Are Such Experiences Meaningful Only As Indicators Of A Diagnosis, Or Are They Meaningful In Other Ways, Shedding Light On Human Self-Understanding And Perhaps Even A Wider Spiritual Reality?
