title: [Survival].
abstract: In a shared silence, the demented patients suddenly name or designate an accurate reality: they attest to the quality of a thing or its place in space. These proposals appear to be simply precarious certainties doomed to the resorption of forgetfulness. Ever since then the thoughts never face the named thing as in front of a previous objectivity, but present to the movement from which they proceed. What is conquered with naming is not the knowledge that acknowledges something: what exists is confounded with what seems to be; knowledge and creation are identical. The patient creates the object; he asserts, and what is asserted is therefore created. Likewise we have underlined this same thought which has the value of an action in onirism. This form of creation sets problems which involve a conception of the life of spirit that enables us to perceive its richness. Some precisions are brought on the creative hallucination of the mother by the baby and the maternal consent to this creation. These remarks confirm our reticence about any binary algorithm and explain that we cannot commit ourselves to some formalizations such as Freud's (the negative hallucination, and Lacan's Name-of-the-Father).
