The COVID-19 pandemic is not only a biological crisis but a psychological, sociocultural, economic, and spiritual one. Our most grave threat is not the coronavirus itself, but what we do in response. The understandable fear generated by the real dangers of this plague could reinforce a foundational confusion that recurrently brings suffering to us and all our relations: Namely, the dissociative fantasy that I am merely a separate, skin-bounded, autonomous, sovereign self. Fear and greed tend to follow this from this mistakenly contracted identity. Alternately, in fierce ways we would have never wished for, today’s circumstances may be fostering a transformation of consciousness and culture. COVID-19 could subvert our supposedly separate self-sense, world-view, and way of being with others; disclose the “interrelated structure of reality” (as Dr. King put it); highlight the ethical implications that inherently come with it; and summon forth our loving, compassionate responsibility. Working with theoretical ideas and peoples’ actual lived experience, the present article offers suggestions for collaboration—with and for all others—in this precarious time. Insights from humanistic, existential, phenomenological, and transpersonal psychology are set into dialogue with recent examples from daily life.

COVID-19 对我们假定的分离的猛烈颠覆：与其他人一起培养生活并为所有其他人

COVID-19 大流行不仅是一场生物危机，而且是一场心理、社会文化、经济和精神危机。我们最严重的威胁不是冠状病毒本身，而是我们的应对措施。这场瘟疫的真正危险所产生的可以理解的恐惧可能会加剧一种基本的混乱，这种混乱会反复给我们和我们所有的关系带来痛苦：即，我只是一个独立的、有皮肤限制的、自主的、主权的自我的分离幻想。恐惧和贪婪往往从这个错误地收缩的身份随之而来。或者，以我们从未希望过的激烈方式，今天的情况可能正在促进意识和文化的转变。COVID-19 可能会颠覆我们所谓的独立自我意识、世界观和与他人相处的方式；揭示“现实的相互关联结构”（如博士。国王把它）; 突出其固有的伦理含义；并唤起我们充满爱心、富有同情心的责任。本文结合理论思想和人们的实际生活经验，提供了在这个不稳定时期与其他所有人合作的建议。人文主义、存在主义、现象学和超个人心理学的见解与日常生活中的最新例子进行对话。
