Consciousness

them – in this case consciousness (Shoemaker D, 2016). In this essay I will argue that Locke’s original memory criterion is the correct account of personal identity. To do this I will refer to the merits of Locke’s criterion as well as to various objections with two main objections being that identity seems to persist through loss of memory…

The ‘Animal Ways’ are still strong due to ‘Habitual consciousness’. The ’Human Ways’ are still weak and the ‘uncharted territory’. CONTENTMENT & TRUE HAPPINESS “CANNOT BE FOUND IN ‘Animal Ways’, and CAN be found only in the opposite – The ‘Human Ways’ of Existence.” HUMAN MENTALITY DEVELOPMENT is “…INTENTION…

Searle and Descartes being separated by nearly four centuries provides a rough landscape for a philosophical discussion to be conducted upon. Both Searle and Descartes have inherent biases based upon their location on the timeline, Searle with modern science and Descartes with religion and the church. Being that the two are opposed, I think that Searle is able to articulate effectively his positions and respond to Descartes’ claims properly. If positioned at the same location along the timeline…

prove that other consciousness exist, because you can’t see them. And even if in the future we were able to see another person’s subjective experience, we wouldn’t be able to tell that that being was originally conscious to begin with; you would only have the idea that there is a possibility it exists. Many philosophers argue that because we observe people acting and behaving in ways that we do, that they must have a consciousness. But if that was the way to perceive consciousness wouldn’t…

For this paper I’m going to elaborate some more on my response to John Locke’s claims about personal identity. I initially found this passage really intriguing, and I really liked getting to discuss the text in my last paper. Then, after our class discussion, I had even more thoughts and questions about Locke’s ideas after hearing other’s perspectives. There are many issues that I have with Locke’s ideal ology toward the topic of identity, but that’s why I love it. I do not think that memory is…

of great importance to personality development, arguing that in order to develop a one’s fullest potential, there must be a synthesis between the consciousness and unconscious elements. The development of consciousness and inner development are equally important throughout life. However, we often neglect the unconscious, considering our consciousness functions as superior for meeting the demands of society (e.g., in developing a respected and professional identity in one’s line of work or being…

Physicalism. Actually, Qualia is the phenomenally consciousness that people feel about their experience. Every person has his/her own way to feel about things. It largely depends on everyone’s life experience, education background, even age, occupation and gender. Moreover, as a phenomenally consciousness, Qualia must contain subjective point of view. By contrast, Physical facts are all objective. As a result, we cannot use physical facts to explain the consciousness. The same for the argument…

represents the earliest map of consciousness as described in these ancient Indian texts from the sixth or seventh century B.C.E. In these texts consciousness is said to be comprised of three principal states of the self: the waking state, the dream state and the state of deep and dreamless sleep. Later texts added a fourth state of consciousness: pure consciousness. Waking consciousness relates to the outer world which regards the physical body as the self. Dream consciousness refers to mental…

and differences in the stages of madness Jung and Augustine. Whereas for Jung emerges from the transitions points from unconsciousness to consciousness. Augustine sees the sources of madness in human sexuality. In independents between Jung’s and Augustine’s…

Many theories have been developed to explain the phenomenon of nursing and the care the profession provides. Watson’s Theory of Human Caring does not direct or explain how nurses should act, or speak, it simply imposes awareness of human consciousness through carative factors and ideas that can be embodied differently by all individuals (Alligood, 2014, p. 88). The concept is broad and those looking for stringent rules may not be able to grasp and mold the Caritas Processes into caring science…
