Deconstructing the western worldview: toward the repatriation and indigenization of wellness Item Type Thesis Authors Rahm, Jacqueline Marie Download date 23/09/2021 13:22:54 Link to Item http://hdl.handle.net/11122/4821 DECONSTRUCTING THE WESTERN WORLDVIEW: TOWARD THE REPATRIATION AND INDIGENIZATION OF WELLNESS A THESIS Presented to the Faculty of the University of Alaska Fairbanks in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By Jacqueline Marie Rahm, B.A., M.A. Fairbanks, Alaska December 2014 Abstract As Indigenous peoples and scholars advance Native histories, cultures, and languages, there is a critical need to support these efforts by deconstructing the western worldview in a concerted effort to learn from indigenous knowledge and ways of knowing for humanity’s future wellbeing. Toward that imperative, this research brings together and examines pieces of the western story as they intersect with Indigenous peoples of the lands that now comprise the United States of America. Through indigenous frameworks and methodologies, it explores a forgotten epistemology of the pre-Socratic and Pythagorean Archaic and Classical Greek eras that is far more similar to indigenous worldviews than it is to the western paradigm today. It traces how the West left behind this timeless wisdom for the “new learning” and the European colonial settlers arrived in the old “New World” with a fragmented, materialistic, and dualistic worldview that was the antithesis to those of Indigenous peoples. An imbalanced and privileged worldview not only justified an unacknowledged genocide in world history, it is characteristic of a psycho-spiritual disease that plays out across our global society. -
Ionospheric Radars Development
UNT Ionospheric radars development Enrico Zuccheretti, Umberto Sciacca [email protected] - [email protected] Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia - Rome, Italy The following slides were presented during the lectures of the course “Desarrollo de radares ionosféricos” held within the post graduate course on “Geofísica espacial” organised by the Universidad Nacional de Tucumán - Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Tecnología - Departamento de Posgrado in Tucumán on 4 – 7 October 2010. UNT Module 1 Basics of radar theory and design elements Introduction UNT •Amongst the big variety of techniques used to study the geophysical environment, methods using electromagnetic waves occupy a very prominent position. •These techniques exploit radio waves modifications when they interact with the medium they pass through. •The ionosphere is no exception: the most common way to study its behaviour is to emit radio wave pulses into the ionosphere and to study the backscattered echo. •The echo signal contains information about the layers in which it may be refracted, reflected or absorbed. •Also signals coming from satellites (NNSS, GPS) or from terrestrial emitting station (VLF emitters) can be used. They do not exploit the radar technique but their properties are affected by the medium they pass through.

The Truth About Astral Projection and Lucid Dreaming... and What Astral Experience Can Do for You, Today!
Ultimate Astral Experience Book I The Truth About Astral Projection and Lucid Dreaming... And What Astral Experience Can Do For You, Today! by William Ember Ultimate Astral Experience Book I - The Truth About Astral Projection and Lucid Dreaming... And What Astral Experience Can Do For You, Today! Introduction Part I - Basic Questions 1. What is Astral Projection? 2. What is Lucid Dreaming? 3. What about OOBE's and NDE's? 4. What is the nature and function of Sleep and Dreams? 5. Is Astral Experience safe for everyone? Introduction This eBook is written in light of many books on these subjects, to which I have added my own insights. It is intended to give the essence of the more important and interesting considerations regarding Astral Experiences. I have chosen a progressive format to provide the relevant background information for later practical application. To my knowledge it is the most in-depth introduction to these subjects, covering of the most interesting philosophical points and questions about Astral Projection and Lucid Dreaming. Its value is thus in preparing you by informing about Astral Experience, and so it is a necessary and integral part of the course. This knowledge is the basis from which your experiences will spring. Sometimes just reading about these subjects can trigger an experience, and I wish that good fortune upon you! (It will help to imagine what it would be like and wonder about the possibility of doing it.) Whether it does happen spontaneously or not (or perhaps it has and that's why you're reading this...), for consistently good results we still need to practice. -

This capability makes it possible to frequently and even continuously monitor the D region electron density profile variations over geograph- ically large regions, which are measurements that are essentially impossible by other means. -
