"Bion perforated the mystique of ontic "objectivity" implicit to logical-positivistic, deterministic science and revealed its own unsuspected mythology--its absolute dependence on sense data. Applying his concept of reversible perspective, he found myths, both collective and personal, to be themselves "scientific deductive systems" in their own right... Bion founded... a numinous discipline based on the abandonment of memory, desire, and understanding... "seeing things as they truly are -- without disguise". He was preoccupied with the question of how we know what we know." --Bion's Transformation in 'O' and the Concept of the "Transcendent Position"
