Recent Experiences of State of Mind ©1998 NICOLEA

 Sibyl, by Frederic Lord Leighton

a) As you reflect on the past few years of your life, can you recall situations where you experienced states of mind similar to those you just described-states of mind in the problem - at work, at home, or perhaps with family, friends, neighbors or others?

b) Please list these situations and then briefly describe:

1) How did you feel?

2) How did you believe you may had been appearing to those with whom you were relating?

3) How did you feel about appearing that way?

c) What do you find common to each of these situations? What effect did these states of mind have on these situations?

d) Consider: Why do you think that these states of mind have played such a significant role in your life?

e) Among the high and low states of mind you experienced, did you also note the role that forgetfulness played in these dramas? What do you think about that?

May we preserve these philosophical beauties, and exhibit them to others. May this web site expand their elegance by the enlivening rays of the philosophic fire; and by the powerful breath of genius, scatter abroad in this virtual world these latent but copious seeds.

If some sparks of this celestial fire shall animate the reader, consider yourself as well rewarded for this laborious undertaking. Ancient philosophy has been, for centuries, the only study to break the shackles of ignorance; and in which one finds an inexhaustible treasure of intellectual wealth, and a perpetual fountain of wisdom and delight.

Presuming that such a pursuit bestows the highest benefit, I, Webmistress, desire no other reward than the wealth of wisdom, and Reason as my constant Guide. If successful, may I see the praise of the liberal; and if not, I expect no defense for failure, other than the decision of the candid, and discerning few, thus the opportunity to learn, and purgation by philosophic fire.
