Mind thinks reality "is out there". Mind is therefore alienated " from itself. Recognizing that reality is its own creation reconciles mind with itself. On Hegel's view: Human beings especially, but all being or reality, is in a state of constitutive alienation. Man needs healing, to be made whole( = alienation).
