The Garden of the MindA Psychological Study of the Fall of Man in GenesisThe Genesis narrative, especially the first chapters dealing with the creation of the world and the fall of man, is one of the best known and most debated stories in human history. This book aims to look beyond the literal veil and explore the psychological depths of this ancient narrative, revealing insights into the human condition, inner conflicts and the process of self-knowledge.

"The Garden of the Mind: A Psychological Study of the Fall of Man in Genesis" is an invitation to an inner journey, where each symbol, each character and each event is unveiled as part of a psychic drama unfolding within the human consciousness. Since time immemorial, humanity has endeavoured to understand itself, seeking answers to existential questions through mythology, philosophy and, more recently, psychology.

The story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden is not only a theological explanation for the origin of sin and suffering, but also a powerful allegory of the inner conflicts we all face. This book proposes a psychological reading of this narrative, using concepts and theories from leading figures in psychology such as Sigmund Freud, Carl Jung and others, to explore the symbolic elements of the biblical text.

Our aim is to offer a new perspective on this ancient story, highlighting how it can shed light on fundamental aspects of the human psyche. The serpent, the tree of knowledge, the discovery of nakedness, the voice of God and the expulsion from paradise are all elements that, when interpreted psychologically, reveal profound truths about desire, guilt, shame, morality and the incessant search for self-understanding and personal growth.
