  8. actualization and the lack thereof within Philip markoff
  9. Philip was for all practical purposes
  10. like a good neighbor
  11. and I'm not speaking of state form, he was normal, had a happy upbringing,
  12. He was a medical student, he graduated summa cum lady, he was engaged to be married.
  13. He had what criminologists called a fragmented identity.
  14. I don't know if you recall Sigmund fraud uh and the three parts of the mind,
  15. the id ego and super ego here is where I would like to insert his,

  19. sadomasochism and later he committed suicide.
  20. Maslow sought to understand human motivation by observing
  21. people such as Albert Einstein and Eleanor Roosevelt.
  22. He came up with a framework for future research,
  23. a five tier model of human needs known as Maslow's hierarchy of needs from bottom

  25. we first seek physiological needs such as food, sleep and clothing,

  28. Then we seek esteem,
  29. that setting those goals and meeting them,
  30. those achievements of life and respect from others such as our peers,
  31. and at the very top of the tear is self actualization,
  32. growth, everything you're capable of becoming
  33. self actualization, the process of becoming everything you are meant to be.

  35. the accomplishments he would have liked because he did not have esteem.
  36. He did not reach self actualization
  37. according to Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
  38. If he felt he did, it was perhaps from the scientific perspective,
  39. rather than from the holistic buddhist viewpoint.

  41. the individual begins to show mental health
  42. symptoms.

  49. it is written right views involved seeing things as they are,
  50. rather than as one wishes them to be
  51. through the practice of mindfulness,
  52. where one focuses on the flowing data of sensory experiences.
  53. These sensory experiences
  54. run congruent lee to the paths that lead to self actualization
