The states of the ego are classified in the following manner:
STEREOPSYCHIC: Are the identifying states which are intimately related with the exterior perceptions which are received through the five senses and which are connected with the world of impressions.
NEOPSYCHIC: Are the data processing states, in other words, those which properly interpret or misinterpret all the multiple situations which the intellectual animal lives. Our bad secretary, the personality,works in these states.
ARCHEOPSYCHIC: Are the regressive states —memory of the ego— which are found in the 49 levels of the subconscious. They are the memorie s of the past which are filed in a photographic andphonographic manner.
