Abstract

We present an hypothesis of the existence of analogies between the bio-psycho-cognitive living organism, working as a model, and social institutions. These institutions are created to protect man against stress and changes. This hypothesis is supported by: 1) the analogies which exist between an enterprise and living organism. 2) the existence of “out of body experiences” observed in some natural conditions and electrophysiological manipulations. Furthermore the possibility to project out of the subject a virtual object is one of the elements contributing to human identity and consciousness. A trinitrian situation is realized between the subject, the out of body object and the outside observer. This observer (mirror of the subject) is classically recognized as one of the essential factors needed for the subject identity construction which constitute one of the defense factors of a living organism or social institution. So, a “trinitrian intelligent loop” exist, allowing the emergence of the consciousness of the conscience.
