Abstract

The human thought is constituted by the development of the language, which, with its structural complexity, permits the establishment of new relation systems in the world, giving origin to the omnipotence of thought. The world is filled up with meanings like a new air impregnating everything. The vision of the whole has to do with the oceanic life, the origin of religion to Romain Rolland. This conception is discussed by Freud, who considers totemic culture the origin of religions. Thus, two world conceptions are opposed, two thought systems; one of them tending towards the whole (oceanic feeling, religious in Hegel), and the other one dividing the world into two opposites: the sacred and profane (unfortunate conscious in Hegel, totemic in Freud and in Durkheim).
