Abstract

The article expresses reasoning and reflection on the problem of discrepancy between the natural unity of a person, which it is proposed to define through the concept of "brain-psyche-(reason / consciousness ...)", bearing in mind all other constituents, which it is customary to include in the concept of "psyche" and modern methodological research of human in science and philosophy, which focus on studying only individual parts of this unity and because they cannot capture it. Also introduced is a new conceptual model (philosophical principle) of non-linear integrity "whole-in-whole", which helps to study nonlinearity, complexity and instability as characteristic features of the proposed concept. The basis for research is psychosynergistic theory of psyche, since it is the synergetics that has a powerful methodological arsenal for studying complexity, instability and chaotization inherent in open, dynamic environments of self-organizing. These are the constituents of the concept "(brain / psyche) – (reason / consciousness ...)", which form the natural unity of person.
