>>What would you tell me about self-actualization? Is there a recommended procedure for pursuing/encouraging this event/process?<<

The recommended procedure is the desire to persue it. You relentlessly follow the path though you have no idea where it is going, or what you will find. It is a matter of making the journey.

The reason Maslow put it at the end of the hirerarchy of needs was becasue one had to have the time as well as commitment to do it.

Self actualization is an awareness that has no words. It is the understanding of the need for the journey and what that entails that is important.

Neitzsche said when he first read Doestevsky tears came to my eyes as I had found a brother. Zen and existentialism.

Self Actualization I think is both profound and confusing. The Japanese are both the most polite and poetic and enlightened, yet can be the most cruel.

Many religions teach the pursit of knowldege. Just not ours-so much-lol.
