Abstract: 

Hypothesis: Beyond the limits of the unlimited psyche there is the limit imposed by the mind on the heart and by the heart on the mind. Premises: psyche is seen within the scientific psychology more (if not exclusively) as psychic rather than soul. Attempts are made in order to eliminate the term “soul”. I set on from this premise – with accents that are predominantly philosophical, anthropological, religious, psychological, phenomenological and towards the end, psychiatric – and I will try to define, out of my own perspective, the limit.
