It is often to create a new perspective and a clearer vision to view the aspects of the world, which can be considered as another way of rephrasing the imposition of...

This essay considers reasons the early Buddhists taught that the five aggregates (khandhas) weren’t the self. These reasons can be classified into three categories: soteriological, socio-cultural, and philosophical. Given the Buddha’s emphasis on teaching for the purpose of liberation, the soteriological reasons are the most important and are given the most attention. Nonetheless, the social and religious milieu of Northern India during the Buddha’s time was dominated by an earlier version of the Brahmanic culture still existing in India today....

Abstract Being grateful or ruminating on one’s depressive symptoms can have dramatic impacts on mood. Past research gives evidence that rumination leads to more negative affect in depressed people and gratitude leads to more positive affect regardless of baseline depression levels. Participants (N = 198) were randomly assigned to a neutral rumination (n = 99) or positive gratitude condition (n = 99) and the effects on positive and negative mood were examined. I hypothesized that people high in depression would...

All art, regardless of shape or form, is inherently political. This is a simple fact. Ryan (2018) asserts that art cannot exist within a vacuum of apoliticality, for “[the artist’s] ability to create art is shaped by [their] political environment just as much as art itself is.” This is especially true for art created within recent decades, where more and more artists have turned to their own crafts to speak on socio-political issues and, in some way, turn their art...

Nostalgia Construct The term “nostalgia” was first used by Johannes Hoffer in 1688, and since then has been studied from a variety of perspectives. Looking into nostalgia’s origins, it derives from two Greek roots nostos and algos. First, nostos, “to return home/ to one’s native land”. Secondly, the root algos, or “pain, suffering, or grief”, completes the term nostalgia, referring to its original connotation of the pain or suffering related with the return home. Nostalgia as an emotion has both...

Superficially, nothing could be more disparate than the Dig and To the Lighthouse. From being worlds apart in time to the complete contrast in setting and focus of interest, the lowbrow, simplistic concerns of a middle class family in their holiday home could not be further from the unmerciful realism of life in the Welsh countryside. However, on a much closer study, they have much greater affinity. In To the Lighthouse, the initial focus is the Ramsay’s marriage. A sense...

One arguing for uplifting African Americans through hard work and education within regards to...
