    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.

  • The Strengthening Aspects of Zen and Contemporary Meditation Practices
    The Strengthening Aspects of Zen and Contemporary Meditation Practices By Kathleen O’Shaughnessy Excerpts from Chapter 19 of: Spiritual Growth with Entheogens – Psychoactive Sacramentals and Human Transformation Edited by Thomas B. Roberts ©2001, 2012 by the Council on Spiritual Practices Kathleen O’Shaughnessy has a thirty-year background in Soto Zen practice, psychosynthesis and gestalt therapy, movement as a means of expanding the capabilities of the human nervous system, the fragilities of nutritional healing, primary shamanic states (including plant-induced frames of mind), multiple and multilevel bodywork approaches to balance, and the practicalities of transpersonal crisis. Meditation: Reflecting on Your Attitude toward Altered States What is your relationship to unusual and altered states in meditation? As you read about these experiences, notice which ones touch you, notice where you are attracted or what reminds you of past experiences. How do you meet such experiences when they arise? Are you attached and proud of them? Do you keep trying to repeat them as a mark of your progress or success? Have you gotten stuck trying to make them return over and over again? How much wisdom have you brought to them? Are they a source of entanglement or a source of freedom for you? Do you sense them as beneficial and healing, or are they frightening? Just as you can misuse these states through attachment, you can also misuse them by avoiding them and trying to stop them. If this is the case, how could your meditation deepen if you opened to them? Let yourself sense the gifts they can bring, gifts of inspiration, new perspectives, insight, healing, or extraordinary faith.

  • Psychedelic Research Revisited
    PSYCHEDELIC RESEARCH REVISITED James Fadiman Ph.D. Menlo Park, CA Charles Grob MD Torrance, CA Gary Bravo MD Santa Rosa, CA Alise Agar (deceased) Roger Walsh MD, Ph.D. Irvine, CA ABSTRACT: In the two decades before the government banned human subjects studies in the mid 1960s, an enormous amount of research was done on psychedelics. These studies hold far reaching implications for our understanding of diverse psychological, social, and religious phenomena. With further research all but legally impossible, this makes the original researchers a unique and invaluable resource, and so they were interviewed to obtain their insights and reflections. One of these researchers was James Fadiman, who subsequently became a cofounder of the Association for Transpersonal Psychology and the Journal of Transpersonal Psychology. Discussion topics include his research studies and personal experiences, the founding, nature and purpose of transpersonal psychology, social effects of, and responses to, psychedelics, and religious freedom. INTRODUCTION For half a century psychedelics have rumbled through the Western world, seeding a subculture, titillating the media, fascinating youth, terrifying parents, enraging politicians, and intriguing researchers. Tens of millions of people have used them; millions still do—sometimes carefully and religiously, often casually and danger- ously. They have been a part—often a central and sacred part—of many societies throughout history. In fact, until recently the West was a curious anomaly in not recognizing psychedelics as spiritual and medical resources (Grob, 1998, 2002; Harner, 1973). The discovery of LSD in 1943 (Hoffman, 1983), and later its chemical cousins—such as mescaline, psilocybin and MDMA—unleashed experiences of such intensity and This paper is excerpted from a more extensive interview which will be published in a book tentatively entitled Higher Wisdom.

    “THEY WASN’T MAKIN’ MY KINDA MUSIC”: HIP-HOP, SCHOOLING, AND MUSIC EDUCATION By Adam J. Kruse A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Music Education—Doctor of Philosophy 2014 ABSTRACT “THEY WASN’T MAKIN’ MY KINDA MUSIC”: HIP-HOP, SCHOOLING, AND MUSIC EDUCATION By Adam J. Kruse With the ambition of informing place consciousness in music education by better understanding the social contexts of hip-hop music education and illuminating potential applications of hip-hop to school music settings, the purpose of this research is to explore the sociocultural aspects of hip-hop musicians’ experiences in music education and music schooling. In particular, this study is informed by the following questions: 1. How do sociocultural contexts (particularly issues of race, space, place, and class) impact hip-hop musicians and their music? 2. What are hip-hop musicians’ perceptions of school and schooling? 3. Where, when, how, and with whom do hip-hop musicians develop and explore their musical skills and understandings? The use of an emergent design in this work allowed for the application of ethnographic techniques within the framework of a multiple case study. One case is an amateur hip-hop musician named Terrence (pseudonym), and the other is myself (previously inexperienced as a hip-hop musician) acting as participant observer. By placing Terrence and myself within our various contexts and exploring these contexts’ influences on our roles as hip-hop musicians, it is possible to understand better who we are, where and when our musical experiences exist(ed), and the complex relationships between our contexts, our experiences, and our perceptions.

  • Malikah Raps out of Rage | Norient.Com 6 Oct 2021 21:06:22
    Malikah Raps out of Rage | norient.com 6 Oct 2021 21:06:22 Malikah Raps out of Rage INTERVIEW by Eric Mandel The Lebanese musician Malikah started to rap out of rage. As a central figure in Arab hip hop she now literally travels between different worlds: from the streets of Beirut to Europe’s avant-garde concert halls. Norient caught up with her in Berlin to talk about her musical roots and sense of belonging in an English-speaking and male-dominated hip hop scene. Malikah was the first female rap star to emerge from the young hip hop scene of Beirut. Born as Lynn Fattouh in France, the daughter of an Algerian mother and a Lebanese father, she grew up in Lebanon. She started to rap in English and French, and then, in 2006, switched to Arabic while reinventing herself as Malikah («Queen»), a title she's kept ever since. Apart from appearing on jams and collaborations in the Arab rap scene, Malikah made her way into the international festival circuit with projects such as Lyrical Rose, her trio with Kenyan artist Nazzi and fellow rapper Diana Avella from Columbia. She took part in different versions of Damon Albarn's Africa Express where she also met André de Ridder, conductor of the experimental ensemble Stargaze Orchestra. This year, de Ridder invited her to perform alongside French- Malian rapper Inna Modja as a part of the Stargaze project «Spitting Chamber Music» in Berlin and Cologne in May 2017. https://norient.com/stories/rap-out-of-rage-malikah Page 1 of 4 Malikah Raps out of Rage | norient.com 6 Oct 2021 21:06:22 [Eric Mandel]: When did you pick up a microphone? [Malikah]: I never thought that I could rap because there was no Arabic hip hop per se back then.
