The Enduring Greatness
Greatness, a relative concept, has been historically approached in different ways. Considering greatness of character as different from greatness of talents, some cultures have conceptualized greatness as an expression of human spirit leading to transcending existing patterns and awakening inner selves to new levels of consciousness, rising above times and circumstances, and to change the direction of human tide. Individuals characterized by such…
Mind and creativity
This article introduces a non-Western approach to mind and creativity, an approach inspired by the notion of sahṛdaya (the appreciative critic) found in the Indian tradition of aesthetics known as rasa. The rasa tradition is preoccupied with a virtual reality governed by the principle of non-duality ( advaita), which we illuminate with another virtual reality—as formulated by the mathematical principle of symmetry in quantum mechanics. Far reachi…

Creativity and Teaching Success
Research using creative ability as a factor in the prediction of teaching success is rather spotty (Yamamoto, 1963; Raina, 1969a, 1969b). Knoell (1953) concluded: It appears that ideational fluency is significantly correlated with teaching Torrance (1960) reports that most effective teachers do more thinking activities (convergent, divergent, and evaluative thinking) than the least effective ones. Crocker (1968) found r = .41 (n = 69) between tea…
