Synthesis:Source Traditions

From EmergeWiki
Revision as of 10:03, 13 February 2025 by OlivierSandilands (talk | contribs)

A vast number of religious, spiritual, ritual, cultural, philosophical, and other traditions have contributed to the conversation regarding Emergent Phenomena for at least thousands and likely many tens of thousands of years and many continue to today.

Further, critical to integrating Emergent Phenomena into mainstream clinical understandings and practice are the opportunities provided by manuals such as the DSM-5TR and related manuals, with statements providing an immediate functional need for detailed understandings of the world's traditions and what they consider normal, such as this statement, from the DSM-5TR, on page 102, in the section on Hallucinations:

"Hallucinations are perception-like experiences that occur without an external stimulus. They are vivid and clear, with the full force and impact of normal perceptions, and not under voluntary control. They may occur in any sensory modality, but auditory hallucinations are the most common in schizophrenia and related disorders. Auditory hallucinations are usually experienced as voices, whether familiar or unfamiliar, that are perceived as distinct from the individual's own thoughts. The hallucinations must occur in the context of a clear sensorium; those that occur while falling asleep (hypnagogic) or waking up (hypnopompic) are considered to be within the range of normal experience. Hallucinations may be a normal part of religious experience in certain cultural contexts.”

Thus, in order to provide extensive support for diagnosticians, care providers, family members, friends, and everyone else relating to these issues, EmergeWiki aims to have detailed information and additional links to external sources on the major and minor "cultural context" mentioned above, including, but not limited to the following, and we encourage authors to add more to this list as needed to be as complete and thorough as possible:
