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
