AbstractIn the 4th and 5th centuries B.C. the most significant paradigm change in Western intellectual culture occurred, later affecting Christianity and subsequently science. In the interest of personal empowerment over spontaneous stirrings, a private inner sphere, a so-called soul (psyche) was ascribed to every conscious subject which was taken to contain their whole experience, like a house, conceived of as an inner world in which reason was to be the master of spontaneous impulses; the empirical external world between these inner spheres was cleansed of all gripping forces and, for this purpose, ground down to a few elegantly selected types of features and their carriers (atoms, substances): the remainder of this grindingdown was deposited in the souls or overlooked to nonetheless be found in the souls in changed form. Man was dissected into body and soul. In the transposition into the soul’s huge amounts of life experience were forgotten. Among them can be counted the felt body which disappeared between body and soul as in a crevasse, even though it is the closest thing to human experience.

A natural place of retreat once the reality of the mind-independent world has been challenged is that of the certainty of our inner world, a world which, we assume, is perfectly transparent to us and over which we have complete control, which provides a sharp contrast with an external world of which we have limited knowledge, and which frequently resists our attempts to influence it. The second chapter considers a set of reasons against the existence of this kind of internal world. I consider arguments critical of introspective certainty and query the existence of a substantial self that acts as a central unifier of our mental life. The chapter concludes that a foundation in the internal world remains elusive: our introspective capacities do not give us any more of a secure grasp of an internal world than our five senses perceiving the external world.

The core concern of this article is to unravel the underlying mystery of mental activities; it reveals how a writer tends to weave his thoughts and memories. The article aims at dealing with the bases of writer’s reasons and recollections appeared in journal. The analysis as such becomes significant to synchronize, acknowledge and recognize the basic causes behind the seemingly scattered and deviated thoughts but coherently correlated concepts of the writer. In order to achieve such importance and objective of this study, this qualitative research has implemented an outlook the nature / culture ambivalent aspect of the broad perspective, ecocriticism on shaping one’s perception as a tool. And the model text to be analyzed is “Reminiscences of a Journey to Greece” a journal prepared by Govinda Raj Bhattarai. After the investigation into this journal, the exploration elucidates that one’s encounter with the environment becomes the generator and stimulator of mental matters memoirs, concepts, ideas and emotions. Therefore, the key conclusion of this analysis is that one cannot generate ideas in the void or absence of context rather the external world becomes the bedrock to beget inner world the conceptions of the creator in journal.

From the very first day of his birth until his death, man is under the watchful eye of society. Economic or industrial relations form the basis of society and social life. But, according to most sociologists and philosophers of the XX-XXI centuries, for thousands of years there were other, not less important laws and relationships that impeccably «guide» human actions – these are moral values. Thus, economics, morality and politics are so closely intertwined in modern post-industrial society that it is simply impossible to separate them from each other. After all, today «man as a person» and «man as a citizen» define two main directions of progress of human existence: the direction of development of the «inner world» of man the formation of new moral and psychological principles of existence; the direction of development of the «external world» of man – the formation of new economic, political and socio-psychological principles of existence. But a person’s freedom of action in a post-industrial society does not absolve himself of responsibility to society. Responsibility itself keeps a person from uncontrolled intentions.

Spirituality is usually understood as a way of being that flows from a certain profound experience of reality, which is known as ‘mystical’, ‘religious’, or ‘spiritual’ experience. There are numerous descriptions of this experience in the literature of the world’s religions, which tend to agree that it is a direct, non-intellectual experience of reality with some fundamental characteristics that are independent of cultural and historical contexts. Spiritual and scientific quests are two complementary inquiries into reality. Any feeling of antagonism between them is a product of a narrow vision. Science deals with what is measurable; religion is the quest for discovering and understanding the immeasurable. A scientist is not intelligent if he denies the existence of the immeasurable. There is nothing that is anti-science but there is a lot that is beyond science. The two quests have to go hand in hand. We not only need to have an understanding of the laws that govern the phenomena occurring in the external world around us but also we need to discover order and harmony in our consciousness. Human understanding is incomplete unless it covers both aspects of reality: matter as well as consciousness. Indeed the division between the scientific and spiritual quests is itself the creation of the human mind. Reality is one undivided whole which includes both matter and consciousness. Our thoughts, being limited by our experience, divide the external world from the inner world of our consciousness, in much the same way as our mind divides time from space though they are both two aspects of a single continuum۔

This article asks how theatre practice may be gendered using not just protest but also resistance as a way of addressing women's oppression. Drawing upon her long experience as a theatre activist, the author traces the various experiments that were made to 'explore alternative images, symbols, metaphors and representation which help construct various forms of [female] subjec tivity' in Tamil theatre. The most recent of these is Avvai, written by Inquilab and directed by the author. In this revisionist account, the historical/mythic poet Avvai, contrary to the prevalent image of her as an old, wise, celibate woman, is rendered as a young, sensuous, creative, 'free' person, a wandering bard. Through a particular understanding of the Sangam era in Tamil his tory, Avvai's inner world as woman, poet and performer, and her external world of community and of politics are represented in ways that satisfy the requirements of a theatre of feminist resistance.

Design is a process that oscillates between visualization and materialization. Within this process, products usually start their lifecycles as abstract concepts that transmute incrementally from raw mental presentations in the inner world of their creators into physical objects in the external world. A framework and associative models for concept management, processing, formation and transformation are introduced and discussed. The framework comprises a set of major phases of concept development from primitive mental images into final materialized products. Concept derivation represents the core of the concept processing framework. Consequently, it is represented as the main nexus between knowledge abstraction and product materialization in design. Nine methods of concept generation and eight elements of concept translation into tangible design products are described and discussed. The concept generation and translation process are illustrated by examples of model implementation.

The key ideas of esotericism regarding the spiritual transformation of a person in this article are considered in the context of psychological inner work on oneself at the initial (exoteric) stage of mastering esoteric knowledge and experience. It is noted that the external world penetrates into the inner world of a person, "imprinted", becoming an internal reality. This reality has various characteristics, acquires the psychological status of positive and negative emotions. In this regard, esoteric work as a whole is a "guide" for orientation in the space of the inner world and recommendations for changing internal states.

John Locke, Bishop Berkeley and David Hume are the pioneers of modern British Philosophy during 17th  and 18th  centuries. Among them, John Locke‟s epistemological work is one of the greatest defenses of modern empiricism. He attempts to determine the limits of human understanding and seeks to clear the ground for future developments by providing a theory of knowledge compatible with the study of human nature. In his discussion the term „ideas‟ plays an important role. To understand Locke‟s empiricism, one must realize what he means by „ideas‟. For Locke, ideas are all signs which represent the external world of physical objects and the inner world of consciousness. However, in his book, An Essay Concerning Human Understanding, he discusses „ideas‟ in details but he does not provide a sufficiently clear account of the nature of ideas. This paper is an attempt to give a critical exposition of John Locke‟s theory of ideas in which I will try to show that his explanation about the nature of idea is not sufficient enough to establish the theory of ideas he presented.

It is the transposition of the essence of the surrounding nature to a minor portion of space, where the stones placement and plants stimulate not only the senses, but also the visitor’s mind.

There are many different styles of garden and each one has its own simbology. One of them is the Tea Garden. Since the 12th century, with the arrival of the green tea, the tea cerimony became part of the Zen philosophy.
