Introspection on Sesame Street
2008-05-15 14:22:00 I found this little discussion on abnormality when looking for recent psychology news. In it, the Cookie Monster from Sesame Street* engages in a little introspection and questions his label of "monster". Why is he so "abnormal"? In one passage, he wonders: Me thinks me have serious problem. Me thinks me addicted. But since when it acceptable to call addict monster? It affliction. It disease. It burden. But does it make me monster?How can they be so callous? Me know there something wrong with me, but who in Sesame Street doesn't suffer from mental disease or psychological disorder? They don't call the vampire with math fetish monster, and me pretty sure he undead and drinks blood. No one calls Grover monster, despite frequent delusional episodes and obsessive-compulsive tendencies. And the obnoxious red Grover?oh, what his name??Elmo! Yes, Elmo live all day in imaginary world and no one call him monster. No, they think he cute. And Big Bird! Don't get me started on Big Bird! He u...
Happiness, introspection, and thinking
2008-04-20 18:23:00 How much time do we spend thinking about happiness? Is all of this thought worthwhile? Numerous studies have shown that happy people are those who are less introspective (see Lyubomurski and Lepper 1999, or Veenhoven 1988), suggesting that excessive reflection can lower our mood. We probably all know people who rarely reflect about deeper issues of life, spirituality, or happiness, and yet are the happiest people around. Does this mean that the best way to be happy is to stop thinking? Or is the causation the other way around? Perhaps introspection does not cause unhappiness, but rather, unhappiness causes introspection. There are definitely problems with thinking too much. Almost every spiritual tradition speaks against this. Peace and happiness can only exist in the present moment, and thought takes us away from this place. We all recognize the negatives of being burdened with thought. Many of us set goals to “live in the moment”, and resolve to relax and be at peace. ...

We might form the belief that someone else is happy on the basis of perception, for example, by perceiving their behavior. But a person typically does not have to observe their own behavior in order to determine whether they are happy. Rather, one makes this determination by introspecting. Though the term “introspection” literally means “looking within” (from the Latin â€...

Reflection and Introspection
2007-10-04 21:13:00 I find it scarily amazing, that as this increase towards the new world order's formation speeds up with rapid progression that people because they are intentionally unaware of things like double speak and are mis informed about mind control and government corruption time and time again are fooled just because they choose not to educate themselves.And although in actuality any system of government is wrong, and should not exist because in essence it is only designed as a platform for these people to operate. I think it is important to analyze these events, not for a positive change in government, but so people understand its purpose of control, and once you understand that the Illuminati have been in control for as long as they have, it becomes very easy to see.This does not mean that there could not be a truly peaceful government, no their honestly could, but it would never stay that way, even if we were to tare down the all the current establishments, upon their re formation it wo...
Prosection Introspection
2007-09-30 21:51:00 As a child I would occasionally daydream on long car journeys or before I fell asleep at night, pondering what death is like. Back then as a naïve child with an overactive imagination I used to think that although you were dead, you could still feel what happens to your body on some spiritual level. Because of this I thought the idea of cremation was horrific, that you would feel the intense burning of your remains somehow. The same superstitious logic could therefore be applied to dissection – that you would somehow feel your body being cut open, manipulated and dissected out. I would shudder at the thought of such horrendous agony, but even as a child I knew it was a silly idea. So why was it I still shuddered at the thought of somehow hurting this prosected specimen? I guess I’d hardwired that false notion into my brain and couldn’t help myself - it is an intrinsic reflex now.Because of this mindset I had as a child I also used to think being buried and slowly decomposing ...

Problems In Observation and Introspection
2007-06-21 08:45:00 PROBLEMS IN OBSERVATION AND INTROSPECTION One should always keep in mind that psychology is essentially a laboratory science, and not a text-book subject. The laboratory material is to be found in ourselves and in those about us. While the text should be thoroughly mastered, its statements should always be verified by reference to one's own experience, and observation of others. Especially should prospective teachers constantly correlate the lessons of the book with the observation of children at work in the school. The problems suggested for observation and introspection will, if mastered, do much to render practical and helpful the truths of psychology. 1. Think of your home as you last left it. Can you see vividly just how it looked, the color of the paint on the outside, with the familiar form of the roof and all; can you recall the perfume in some old drawer, the taste of a favorite dish, the sound of a familiar voice in farewell? 2. What illustrations have you observed whe...

Luiz Bonfa - Introspection: Bonfa Solo Guitar (1972)
2007-02-10 23:43:02 Hello, Good Night! I'm leaving tonight for some personal affairs, being back late to meet Loronix friends. Meanwhile, I would like to leave you with a great record that came as a contribution, the first out of several ones from the Loronix friend tcisalpino.I would like to say something about the new features implemented, the guide to Amazon in print records and the musicians @ Loronix mini-store. They are of a great importance to keep Loronix up and running, not by the commercial aspects with the revenue generation to Loronix, but with a better positioning of our community within several different players that surrounds us, something that we use to call in business language as the value chain. Loronix should generate benefits to everybody involved and these minor features were launched towards this value proposition.This is Luiz Bonfa - Introspection: Bonfa Solo Guitar (1972), for RCA (USA), featuring Luiz Bonfa and his acoustic nylon guitar and considered by the critics as one of...
