About the Commons

Systems Observatory is an independent para‑academic studio exploring the intersection of systems thinking, psychodynamics, and organizational life. It houses Neuropsychoanalysis India, the national chapter of the International Neuropsychoanalysis Society.

The Observatory functions as a research commons and process archive: a place to map concepts, situate queries, and document working interpretations that connect psyche, group, and institution. It grows quietly through notes, schemas, and annotated readings rather than through high‑volume publishing.

Focus areas include: containment and collective emotion; organizational defenses; the dynamics of authority and boundary; and bridges between affective neuroscience and psychodynamic formulation.
