The purpose of the thesis, therefore, is to provide a process for this journey. Initially, the author uses an autoethnographic approach to understand feelings of confusion and disillusionment with the school system that are sparked once she begins her sojourn as a doctoral student. By applying the metaphor of a map to make sense of her predicament, she identifies and analyzes the key turning points, or critical events, along her path to come to a fuller understanding of herself and her emotions, while paying particular attention to the construction of scientific knowledge, which she learns plays a very important role in the resolution of her internal conflict. She invites the contributions of critical friends who help her realize that, not only do critical events share common elements, they also possess the potential to increase one’s awareness, and hence consciousness. At that moment, she determines that a more in-depth pursuit and examination of her own process is required and therefore feels compelled to abandon the ethnographic aspect of her enquiry. She maintains the thread of self-study, however, as she migrates toward an individualized conception of autobiographical narrative enquiry. She yearns to move beyond the modern science paradigm for answers, and so explores current developments in consciousness studies, as well as Eastern and Indigenous traditions. This motivates her to seek the intersection between spirituality and science, which she feels is lacking from the Newtonian worldview. During her search, she starts to see that her doctoral study fits the parameters of a critical event. It also becomes apparent that by articulating her methodology, her process might even prove helpful for others. She concludes her analysis by proposing that we adopt a perennial philosophy of science, which embraces pluralist perspectives and characterizes what she terms a “Terrestrial worldview.” Keywords: School system; science; consciousness; spirituality; pluralist perspectives; paradigm shift v Dedication For my brother Tom vi Acknowledgements “If it is in the highest good for all of life everywhere.” ~ Australian First Peoples (cited in Morgan, 1995) As reminded by the Australian First Peoples, I offer this dissertation if it is in the highest good for all of life everywhere. I also wish to express my gratitude to Mother Earth and all her inhabitants for their contributions to the success of this thesis. I’d like to acknowledge my Higher Self for inspiring the words that have passed through me and onto these pages. I am deeply grateful for the love and support of my husband, Rob, without whose nourishment and coaching, this endeavour would not be possible. I also want to recognize the editing talents of my brother, Christopher, which have contributed significantly to the quality of this dissertation. Certainly, I would not be where I am today without the wonderful start in life and continued encouragement I receive from my parents, Willard and Marlene Teed. With sincerest thanks, I honour those special Critical Friends in my life who found this project worthy of their time and contribution. Your open hearts and willingness to share were great blessings bestowed upon me. For this, I am eternally grateful. I’d also like to express my appreciation to all those friends who heeded my instructions to refrain from contact while I worked incommunicado for weeks on end. Of course, none of this would have come to fruition without the inspirational guidance of my supervisory team. I am extremely fortunate to have found three amazing men who offered me their wisdom and patience. It is with the utmost gratitude and respect that I recognize David Zandvliet, Allan McKinnon, and Philip Balcaen, whose insight and advice forced me to stretch myself in the most wonderful ways. vii Table of Contents Approval .............................................................................................................................. ii Partial Copyright Licence ................................................................................................... iii Ethics Statement ................................................................................................................ iv Abstract ............................................................................................................................... v Dedication .......................................................................................................................... vi Acknowledgements .......................................................................................................... vii Table of Contents ............................................................................................................. viii List of Tables ...................................................................................................................... xi List of Figures ..................................................................................................................... xi List of Acronyms ................................................................................................................ xi Mapping the Journey ........................................................................................................ xii Chapter 1.

  • 22. MEL PATRICK the Author of This Site and the Book "Egocentricity and Spirituality"
    22. MEL PATRICK The author of this site and the book "Egocentricity and spirituality" is not a guru, an enlightened being, a Jivanmukti or a Jnani (a realized person who holds sacred knowledge). He teaches nothing nor organizes sessions of meditation and Satsang (talks about spirituality and non-duality). He isn’t more or less "awakened" than anybody else when he doesn’t sleep in the arms of Morpheus. He doesn’t claim to be free from anything and doesn’t think to have realized the Self. He doesn’t live in Nirvana or in a world of non-duality, and even less in a fourth dimension of pure consciousness or in heaven, but on earth as all other human beings. He’s actually a very normal and ordinary human being and not God, the Self, the universal consciousness, stillness or an ocean of bliss. He writes to share his experience with other seekers of truth and what is according to him good for humanity. As a matter of fact, he is a seeker of truth and that’s why he doesn’t hesitate to denounce the delirious abuses of spirituality (especially in the non-duality circles) that we can witness today in the West. His initiation with Swami Girdanandaji from Uttarkashi and study of Advaita Vedanta with Mr. Brahma Chaitanya from Gangotri enable him to have a relatively clear idea of what is meant by the term "non-duality". And it’s precisely this subject that he wishes to introduce to the reader, subject based on an experience he has lived and very clearly described in the section "Experience" dated the 4/2/2012.

  • The Natural Power of Intuition
    THE NATURAL POWER OF INTUITION: EXPLORING THE FORMATIVE DIMENSIONS OF INTUITION IN THE PRACTICES OF THREE VISUAL ARTISTS AND THREE BUSINESS EXECUTIVES by Jessica Jagtiani Dissertation Committee: Professor Judith Burton, Sponsor Professor Mary Hafeli Approved by the Committee on the Degree of Doctor of Education Date 16 May 2018 Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Education in Teachers College, Columbia University 2018 ABSTRACT THE NATURAL POWER OF INTUITION: EXPLORING THE FORMATIVE DIMENSIONS OF INTUITION IN THE PRACTICES OF THREE VISUAL ARTISTS AND THREE BUSINESS EXECUTIVES Jessica Jagtiani Both artists and business executives state the importance of intuition in their professional practice. Current research suggests that intuition plays a significant role in cognition, decision-making, and creativity. Intuitive perception is beneficial to management, entrepreneurship, learning, medical diagnosis, healing, spiritual growth, and overall well-being, and is furthermore, more accurate than deliberative thought under complex conditions. Accordingly, acquiring intuitive faculties seems indispensable amid present day’s fast-paced multifaceted society and growing complexity. Today, there is an overall rising interest in intuition and an existing pool of research on intuition in management, but interestingly an absence of research on intuition in the field of art. This qualitative-phenomenological study explores the experience of intuition in both professional practices in order to show comparability and extend the base of intuition, while at the same time revealing what is unique about its emergence in art practice. Data gathered from semi-structured interviews and online-journals provided the participants’ experience of intuition and are presented through individual portraits, including an introduction to their work, their worldview, and the experiences of intuition in their lives and professional practice.

  • Belief in the Paranormal Or Pseudoscience,” Melissa Pollak Outlines Public Attitudes Toward Belief in the Paranormal, and the Role the Media Play in That Belief
    Chapter 2 The Media and Public Gullibility One of the most striking differences between a cat and a lie is that a cat has only nine lives. —Mark Twain He who joyfully marches in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would suffice. —Albert Einstein The evidence of opinion polls varies a little in numbers, but overall it would seem that most Americans believe in some sort of paranormal phenomena. According to one Gallup poll, nearly a third of Americans think that aliens probably have visited our planet, even though there isn’t a shred of evidence to support that belief, and many people think aliens have not only visited earth but have abducted people while they were here. Harvard psychiatrist (and alien enthusiast) John Mack published a study that suggests about 4 million people in the United States have been abducted by aliens. There are a few therapists who actually specialize in treating alien abduction victims, which in itself is reasonable, but when the therapists write books “documenting” the experiences of “actual” kidnap victims, a line of some sort has been crossed. (See Secret Life: Documented First-Hand Accounts of Alien Abduction, by David M. Jacobs.) If aliens don’t interest you, maybe a message from a dead relative would. Psychics bank on our grief and desire to hold on to our dead. In the past, they have waited in shaded rooms and offices for clientele to show up for word from beyond.
