Description
Choose one topic from the list below. Some might seem easy, while others might seem difficult. That is not the point. The important thing is to choose according to your interests and to write honestly. It is also important to reflect back on what you’ve learned in class, while exploring your topic. This is experiential. To be submitted online (Canvas>Assignments). Due when blue book is due. Two-three single-spaced pages. 50 pts.
OPTION 1: RENUNCIATION
Conduct a personal experiment in renunciation for this option, you will give up meat for at least four days (a week is optimum). and write about it. Make sure to explain its purpose and its roots within the context of eastern traditions, along with an explanation of why you chose this option and what it is you are renouncing. If you choose this option, here is useful info from the Gentle Barn to get you started:
http://plant-based-diet.gentlebarn.org/
1. Choose at least three info items from the Gentle Barn link above, and say which you chose, and what you got out of these sources.
2. Then, watch any two of the following five options:
1. VEGUCATED (Netflix)
2. FORKS OVER KNIVES (Netflix)
3. https://gamechangersmovie.com/(Netflix)
4. DIET for a NEW AMERICA:
5. MEET your MEAT:
These documentaries are for inspiration, motivation & information–summarize and say exactly how the documentaries informed and affected you/your work.
3. Another facet of this assignment is to consult a friend/family member, who is already vegetarian (or vegan), for advice and enlist them as a “support buddy.” Ask them these sorts of questions and include their responses in your work:
-“Why did you become a vegetarian/vegan?”
-“How do you deal with opposition?”
-“What advice do you have for me?”
-“How has it impacted your life?”
*In your write up, explore these sorts of ideas: whether or not you feel you were successful, whether you encountered support or resistance from family and friends, and whether or not you had cravings and how you dealt with them, whether it impacted your worldview and way of looking at animals and food, etc.
*Note: A journal-style entry is acceptable.
*Note: If you’re already vegetarian, you may still choose this option by going all the way vegan!
*Note: If you “lie” about your experiment, I will know. But more importantly, you will have failed yourself. This is a test of your own character! It is also a commitment of your heart and mind.
Enjoy your journey, knowing you’re making a positive difference to you, the animals and the environment!
*Note: To my Jewish students, here is a useful website, for support from your own tradition: www.jewishveg.com.?Links to an external site.
*Note: To my Christian students, here is a useful website, for support from your own tradition: http://www.all-creatures.org/cva/default.htm (Links to an external site.).
OPTION 2: SADHANA
Take up a sadhana (daily spiritual discipline), and create a meditation journal, chronicling your journey and experience. Include an explanation of what a sadhana is and why you chose this option. Maintain your meditation for at least a week. 11 mins a day is good to start with. Your meditation choice may be taken from the CDs which you already have (as listed on syllabus), or, in total silence (if you already have experience with meditation).
1. Watch these videos:
1. Youtube Video (6 mins.):
2. Youtube Video (9 mins.) :
2. Read this article on meditation: http://liveanddare.com/benefits-of-meditation/ (Links to an external site.)
3. Draw from these guided tracks:
CDs of Guided Meditations: https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=ntt_srch_drd_B00FB8WKUO?ie=UTF8&field-keywords=Dhanpal-Donna%20Quesada&index=digital-music&search-type=ss
4. Another facet of this assignment is to consult a friend/family member, who already has a meditation practice, and enlist them for support. Ask them these sorts of questions and include their responses in your work:
-“Why did you take up a meditation practice?”
-“Was it for therapeutic or spiritual reasons?”
-“How do you deal with distractions?”
-“What advice do you have for me?”
-“How has it impacted your life?”
*It is recommended that you alternate between tracks on the CDs, in order to discover what you prefer and to widen your exposure to different types of meditations & guidance.
In your write up (journal style is fine), say which track(s) you used on each day, and describe your experience. Also, say why you chose this project. Following the directions, summarize the information linked to, and say exactly how the videos and article informed your meditation practice.
In your write up, elaborate on any difficulties encountered, i.e., resistance, frustration, anxiety, impatience, boredom, etc., and how you were affected by distractions. Say also, how the guided tracks affected your experience. Be sure to include the positive effects, as well! Did you find yourself more centered, present, patient, blissful after practice, etc.?
*Note: If you “lie” about your experiment, I will know. But more importantly, you will have failed yourself. This is a test of your own character! It is also a commitment of your heart and mind. Enjoy your journey, knowing you’re making a positive difference to you, your nervous system, and all those around you!
