Summary : Homework

- consciousness
-un-conciousness

How does psychology give an insight into how a person achieves self-actualisation?

Self- actualisation means that a person is living to their full potential. People go through different levels of growth both biologically and psychologically according to Maslow. It is only when a person feels loved, safe and belonging it is then that they have reached the highest forms of growth which is known as 'self-actualisation'. Some of Maslow's teachings are as follows:

1. Live life fully 
2. Be honest in choices 
3. Act with integrity 
4. Be aware of your own uniqueness 
5. Be courageous 
6. Peak experiences 
7. Lack of ego defences 

Carl Jung

Individuation 

• Believed that we as human beings have lost touch with the important parts of ourselves
• '' that by listening to messages that we have in our dreams that it will help us get back in touch with the different parts of us

- things that are universal that we share with others around us 

- opposite sex qualities/ male and female tendencies within ourselves ( generalisation) 

- things that we keep secret, we don't want people to know about us

- memories below the surface














Individuation 
Dream analysis are a part of Jung's concept


Jung believed that our goal in life is to achieve individuation. Individuation is the process of knowing and giving expression to and harmonising various components of the psyche.

If we come to realise that we are all unique in some way, it is from then that we can realise our true self.
* Mental health issue are formed by un-intergrated aspects of the psyche

Neurosis 

Frantically panicking

The un-concious 

example: saying something before thinking about it

Personal and collective unconscious 

Symbols 

The symbols might be important and tell us something

Persona: projecting a certain image ( good image)
Shadow : don't display that side of our personality
Anima:  Nurturing. According to Jung everyone is bi-sexual
Animus:  the rougher side, the qualities start of as masculine ( aggression)

Gandhi Movie Qs

Self-Actualisation

Physiologist’s perspective:

Truth

Control/expanding horizons

à Stepping out of comfort zone

Embrace/make use of pain and suffering

Authenticity

Living vicariously – live own life instead through others

Exploitation – doesn’t relate to fulfilment

Sorting out mess below the surface can help clarify identity in creating a more secure identity

So if you have issues that you can sort out you are going to be a more together person

The tension between the inter ego and super ego impacts identity through a sense of ones own needs and those of others as well, gives a sense of morality of what’s right and wrong.

A healthy person needs a healthy balance of these 3 egos

That which provides meaning becomes a guide and impacts personal identity

Once dreams can provide important information about ones self realising ones uniqueness is significant towards identity

External and internal images are important part of ones own identity

What’s hidden and what’s below the surface (shadow sides)

Focus on others and not just ourselves we will reach self-actualisation

Ghandi:

Concerned for other people

He lived like others to continually put himself out in cost of his physical and mental health for the sake of other people

Emphasis on change but peaceful change

He was happy do be fulfilled by the basic things in life to be where the people were

Emphasising peace, love, self sacrifice, other peoples needs, what’s good about other peoples needs, humility, humble ourselves

Sigmund Freud

Test in Testblock:

Extended writing response on How to achieve self-actualisation 


Sigmund Freud 

Psychoanalysis-  psychological theories based on the work of Freud 
Psychoanalysis discovers connects among the unconscious and mental processes
Goal is to liberate the patients from barriers of transference and resistance
Dealing with past patterns

Conception of the Human Psyche 

Conscious : Thoughts we are aware of
Preconscious ( super ego)  : Thoughts we dwell close
Unconscious ( non-conscious): Thoughts the are buried
*Ego is freefloating in all 3 levels

The ID

• We are born with our ID 
• ID is an important part of personality 
• Based on our pleasure principles 
• Wants whatever feels good at the time, no consideration for the reality of the situation 
• Common in babies 
• All about themselves 

EGO

• 3 years a child interacts more with the world 
• Second part of personality develops 
• Ego is the second personality 
• Ego is based on reality principles 
• Other people have needs and desires ( sometimes being selfish can hurt)
• Ego is to meet the needs of the ID 
• Consider the reality of the situation 
• Recognition of your needs 

Superego

• Age of 5 Superego develops 
• Moral part of human beings 
• Develops because of moral and ethical restraints placed on by caregivers
• Dictates beliefs of right and wrong 
• Suppress your needs to help others 

Balance 

Healthy Person- 

Ego is strong to satisfy the needs of the ID and not upset the superego. Understand and analyse the reality of the situation. 

* If ID takes over self gratification will take over a persons life ( selfish person) 

* If a superego becomes strong a person will be living by rigid morals and would be judgmental in their interactions towards the world. ( fundamentalism)

---------

id: I want it now
EGO: I need to plan to get it 
Superego : You cant have it. Its not right

• Burial process is done fairly and made simple giving to priority or distinct difference between the rich and poor

1. Olam Ha-Ba/ The world to come: A state of being higher than current existence 

* They prepare by studying the Torah and performing good deeds 

* Doesn't focus on how to get to heaven rather it focuses on current life and how to life it

The Messiah: The anointed one 

• A human that is especially anointed and specially empowered 
• The biblical figures have predicted the return of the Messiah since the destruction of the first temple in the year 586 B.C.E 
• The divine messenger who will come and herald God's message to the world

The Messianic Age

• Theological term: Future time of peace and brotherhood on earth 
• Future time without war, crime and poverty 
• Many religions believe that this New age will come on day  

Doctrine of the Qu'ran :Eschatology

• Believe in an afterlife
• After death people go into the inter-world 
• Judgement Day 
• Paradise is an ideal/ physical place for a person 
• Hell has 7 levels and is far from Paradise therefore it is far from God 
• If a person is not a good Muslim 
• People go to Hell if they don't believe in God and they will burn in hell 
• We are made spirit and soul ( soul is mind and personality, spirit is a part of us that relates to God) 
• Soul's are rejoined with their body. Christian view: Soul will be placed into a different body 
• Purgatory : Period of suffering prior to being with God ( Christian view)
• Difference between Sunnis and Shiite: Sunnis believe that the soul is in rest/ Shiite believe the soul continues on awaiting resurrection 

Sunni-

Sunnis, in contrast, consider the human being a material compound of body and soul. Upon death, both body and spirit die and spend a certain period in the grave where they undergo a personal judgment by two angels and a divine judge. This personal judgment is followed by a second death, which is abrogated, however, for those who died in the name of God. Souls are then believed to vanish, and to appear again on Judgment Day when they rejoin their original bodies.

Shiites- Shiites hold that the human being is a spirit, the "ruh" (spiritual breath, which is immortal by nature), which uses the body as instrument. Upon death, the spirit, liberated from the body, can rediscover its true nature. The souls of those who believed in God live until the day of resurrection, enjoying the vision of God. On the day of resurrection, the bodies of the righteous will join their soul and will enter paradise forever, whereas the unbelievers' souls will suffer until the last day and, once rejoined with their bodies, will suffer eternal punishment.

• People that get into paradise are those that believe in a God and do good deeds 
• Polytheist are Hindus, Atheist and non-followers of the Abrahamic faith will NOT be accepted into Paradise because of their lack of beliefs. 
• Islam doesn't believe in a Satan but they believe in a Jinn which is a person with evil within 

Levels of HELL:

1. Jaheem - the shallowest level of Hell. It is reserved for those who believed in Allah and His Messenger (S.A.W.), but who ignored His commands.
2. Jahanam - a deeper level where the idol-worshippers are to be sent on the Day of Judgement.
3. Sa'ir - is reserved for the worshippers of fire.
4. Saqar - this is where those who did not believe in Allah will be sent on the Day of Judgement.
5. Ladha - will be the home of the Jews.
6. Hawiyah - will be the abode of the Christians.
7. Hutama - the deepest level of Hellfire. This is where the religious hypocrites will spend eternity. The worst of Allah's creation are the Munafiqeen (Hypocrites), wether they be mankind or Jinn, for they outwardly appear to accept, but inwardly reject Allah and His Messenger (S.A.W.).
