5. From an Indian perspective a variety of
positions exist with regard to the application
of Freudian psychoanalysis, namely,
application without any modifications for the
cultural context and culturally modified
applications with deep understanding and
regard for the Indian contexts. While the
former position is evident in the works of
Gananath Obeyesekere and Sudhir Kakar, the
latter position, which can be termed as
ethnopsychological application of Freudian
psychoanalysis, is manifested in the works of
Frederick Smith, Alan Roland, and Stanley
Kurtz.
6. Freud and Religion: The Dilemma
According to Daniel Pals (2006, p.80),
Freud’s major theories about religion are
based on his understanding of Judeo-
Christian traditions that have a strong
emphasis on a single fatherly divine
godhead. Since Asian (and other non-
Western) religious traditions are different
from Western religions with many divine
figures, motherly goddesses and nature
gods, Freudian theories need to be
substantially revised for non-Western
contexts
7. Asian patients, spirituality as a core
dimension of the human psyche has
rarely been acknowledged in Freudian
psychoanalysis. Freud carried forth the
Enlightenment views demystifying
religion and exalting a rational secularism
and science in his views of religion
