Comment on Jeju Women’s History by Anne Hilty

Hello, Keri, and thanks for your kind words. Kim Man Deok is an icon for Korean women, in particular re: women’s empowerment in business. (It might interest you to know that Jeju Island, Korea, will host the next international congress for Business and Professional Women, BPW, in 2014 ~~ and that Kim Man Deok will be a major symbol.) You can read a couple of articles about her at http://www.jejuweekly.com, including one written by me. As to other accomplished women in Jeju history…I’m sorry to say, material has generally been written only in Korean language. All best wishes! ~Anne

Thanks for writing such a fascinating article! I love learning about strong matriarchal societies like the Jeju. You mentioned in passing the Mongolians and their egalitarian view of women; from what I’ve read, they were actually pretty progressive for their time in that and other ways (religious freedom for example)

Do you know where I could find out more info on the women you mentioned, especially Kim Man Deok, Kang Pyung Guk, and Kim Shi Sook? I tried some googling but couldn’t find anything.

[...] Drannehilty reminds us that not ancient ritual traditions are under duress. She spoke to the contemporary use of ritual by the people of Jeju Island. The people of Jeju have a remarkably complex ritual practice. [...]

Comment on (Re)presentation of the Self by Psychologist washington state

Psychologist washington state — Wed, 03 Nov 2010 00:46:15 +0000

“From a psychological perspective, how we present ourselves to others is not fixed but fluid, and we make decisions every day toward this goal. ”

There is an old phrase, “A leopard can’t change it’s spots.” Well arn’t we glad that we are not leopards because we change everyday.

Comment on Ritual by Kaif

What you say about persons suffering from addiction having an unconscious need for ritual is very interesting. I too feel we have an unconscious need for ritual and for someone who has explored his/her unconscious enough, ritual may become something alive rather than dead as it is for most modern people. At the same time, not being religious, I find it difficult to make ritual a daily part of my life, because I don’t have any sacred objects, etc. to relate to..

Comment on Mirror Neurons…and Empathy by Dr Anne Hilty

Dr Anne Hilty — Sun, 11 Apr 2010 00:10:00 +0000

As I’m not a neuroscientist, I can’t speak with any authority to the premise you raise — but the possibilities are fascinating! However, it’s my (limited) understanding that mirror neurons are dependent upon the sensory neural circuitry for vision — that is, the mirror neurons fire upon visual stimuli, or when we observe another. So I’m not certain that this would apply if the visual component is removed.

Comment on Mirror Neurons…and Empathy by Kathy Bornino aka healingtraveler

I am fascinated by the routes for developing empathy in addition to mirror neurons, especially what interface there may be between empathy and telepathy. I wonder, if mirror neurons and other neurons have vibrational frequencies, does the receiver pick those up. For example, would a blind patient or even a patient at a distance pick up empathic intentions or feelings from a therapist? I would be interested in your thoughts on this.

Great phycologists and philosophers have said and even proven their statements but they too think, do, feel, see and even believe what they are suposed to and not what they are meant to so could this mean they lock it all up in the unconscious mind? i do not think so for we are all aware of all this but then why do we always be what we are suposed to be…?

Have you looked at Kathleen desMaisons radiantrecovery.com site?
Her approach to sensible eating has increased my emotional resilience to a marked extent – and having had an extremely traumatic childhood, I can’t believe how simple it’s been – just by the timing and amount of my food intake.
