Pauli writes about the planned Bohr Festschrift. He makes some remarks about Bohr's attempt to create a kind of a religion of complementarity as in former times one has made "energetics" into a sort of "world religion". But the basis of physics is too narrow for such attempts. One should resist the natural impulse which grows with age, to bring everything under one roof.

Concerns biology, evolution, and concepts relating to wholeness, and to the observer.
Sin títuloPauli replies to Lüders' letter of 26 April. He talks about problems of coordinate-mirroring, of particle-antiparticle conjugation and of invariance of the equation with regard to the continuous Lorentz group.
Sin títuloPauli discusses, among other things, Schopenhauer, Greek and Buddhist philosoph, and the oppositions phenomenism-realism, consciousness-existence, observer-observed object, etc.
Sin títuloPauli replies to a letter of the 25 July 1954. He explains his critical attitude to ontology but he conceeds that ontology reflects an intrinsic need of man to overcome the tension between the "Internal" and the "External".
Sin títuloBudini thanks Pauli for his letter. He is now convinced that the eigen-functions in question are not orthogonal to each other.
Sin títuloPauli talks about his work on the Lee model and about Thirring's progress with the divergence of the Dyson series.
Sin títuloPauli talks about the excited state of a V-particle. The renormalization procedure seems artificial after the discovery that there exists more than one eigenvalue W$_{o}.
Sin títuloPauli writes about further thoughts on biological questions. He writes about a book by Rensch on evolution, which has impressed him very much. He writes about psycho-physics parallelism, and about a book by Soal and Bateman on modern experiments in telepathy.
Sin títuloPauli has some more considerations about the Lee model. He talks about some mathematical developments and their possible use for more complex systems with renormalization mathematics, especially quantum electrodynamics.
