or open woodland, or a group of idyllic islands that is quiet and beautiful. Elysian Fields and Happy Isles are two traditions that have shared concepts and mythological ideal places. This idealized “paradise” is relaxing and rejuvenating to the mind. This term became a staple of the pastoral works of poets becoming a rhetorical commonplace. Pope, Alexander. Ode on Solitude. Explains a happy man’s ease and simplicity along a farm with cattle, winter fire and long fields with bread. Usually a…

The unique and foremost influence to psychology that Descartes had was his consideration of the mind-body interaction. Descartes lived as a French philosopher and mathematician who; in the early 17th century, agreed with the notion of a clockwork universe. According to the text, this notion of the times proposed that the universe could be likened to a clock due to the fact of its constancy, predictability, and exactitude. The clock could act as an allegory to expound upon the workings of the…

The research conducted supported one of the hypothesises. Visual word recognition studies help researchers understand the lexical processing of the brain. The way in which the words are interpreted and the way in which the brain maps letters to its neural network, this lexical processing of numbers and letters are found to vary across cultures and languages (Stole & Strand, 2015). Visual word recognition is one of the most investigated topics in cognitive psychology. The contemporary theories…

My research views the different aspects of our thought process and how that correlates with our cognitive abilities to interpret and implement solutions in a strategic manner. Strategy is three-dimensional that is composed of the process, content and context, (Wit, & Meyer, 2010). Each dimension identifies different elements of strategy providing a circular structure that flows in a synergistic manner. Strategy process defines the who, where and when aspect of strategy which provides a…

store for us? The Bible describes early in Genesis, the Creator’s intent to leave lights in the sky “for signs and for seasons.” (Gen 1:14) This book is an introduction to one of the oldest and more persistent methods to understand and decipher the maps of our personal destiny. It is an ancient science called Jyotish (Jyot = Light, Ish = God). Jyotish — the Light of God — is part of Vedanta, the millenary Vedic philosophy of India, which deals with all kinds of knowledge. Jyotish is part of the…

develop the perspectives of my mind map. I was able to magnify the two perspectives of religion and politics on my mind map. Furthermore, the larger group discussions also made me realize several different connections I didn’t think of before. I saw how the five perspectives of media, religion, social, economic, and political were all interconnected with one another. I condensed, un-meaningful statements to find a single yet extensive focus in each section of my mind…

Find My Way Out of a Maze “How long have I walked so far? It is getting dark, but the station is nowhere to be found. Where on earth am I going? I have been wandering around here for almost one hour.” Unfortunately, I am not a careful or prudent person, and I have not been good at remembering directions since a small child, so it is not surprising that I get lost in an unfamiliar area. In most cases, I did not blame my inability but ascribed them to complicated streets and lack of…

are in control of different tasks. Specifically, the brain is compared to a map. Begley (1992) declares, “[The maps] will show . . . where in the brain cognition, feelings, language and everything else that makes us human comes from” (p. 66). This means that the brain’s structure is divided by varying thought processes, emotion, intelligence, and language, to name just a few. To further explain, Begley (1992) states, “The maps . . . will show, with the precision of the best atlas, the islands of…

with humans sending satellites to map outer space, the vast universe is still an unanswered question. Annie Dillard believes that this question cannot be answered because, as in her essay Total Eclipse, she writes that the universe is so powerful that the human mind will break before it understands. Dillard writes about her being teleported to a new world as soon as the total eclipse begins, one that she did not know existed, and the consequences on her state of mind. “The world which lay under…

breakfast and got ready for school, I asked my parents to walk me to school. I was finally on my way to school; I took a deep breath of fresh air and enjoyed the beautiful sunshine of San Diego. What a beautiful day for a fresh start of my education, so my mind was fulfilled with joy. There was nothing to be worried about, not even the language barrier or communication…
