A collusion is a social reality. To transcend a collusion involves a social process. A purely private process simply does not have the required kind of power to transcend a perverse social process. Collusions may be transcended by integrative efforts (both personal and social) which entail the rejection of disintegrative efforts to maintain the collusion through alienative enforcement of collusive taboos. Such efforts entail the discussion and affirmations of actions and reflections upon actions which are taboo under the rules of the collusive games of mutual self deception. To be effective efforts to transcend the disintegrative consequences of the collusions must include social efforts which involve cooperation which transcends the collusion in integrative ways. Victims of the collusion need to learn together to cooperate in affirming integrative values which promote the categorical imperatives of a coercive set of tacit rules. Individuals who are the victims of social collusive behaviors may be tempted to deceive themselves into believing that by themselves they can transcend the social collusive behaviors. Such self deception by individuals is not inherently more integrative than the mutual self deception by members of a collusion. (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
