Ancient Greek philosophy
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethic_of_reciprocity#Ancient_Greek_philosophy
The Golden Rule was a common principle in ancient Greek philosophy.
A few examples:
"Do not to your neighbor what you would take ill from him." (Pittacus)[3]
"Avoid doing what you would blame others for doing." (Thales)[4]
"What you wish your neighbors to be to you, such be also to them." (Sextus the Pythagorean)[5]
"Do not do to others what would anger you if done to you by others." (Isocrates)[6]
"What thou avoidest suffering thyself seek not to impose on others." (Epictetus)[7]
"It is impossible to live a pleasant life without living wisely and well and justly (agreeing 'neither to harm nor be harmed'[8]), and it is impossible to live wisely and well and justly without living a pleasant life." (Epicurus)[
Ethic of reciprocity
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethic_of_reciprocity
It has been suggested that Norm of reciprocity be merged into this article or section. (Discuss) The Parable of the Good Samaritan
The ethic of reciprocity (also known as the Golden Rule) is an ethical code that states one has a right to just treatment, and a responsibility to ensure justice for others. Reciprocity is arguably the most essential basis for the modern concept of human rights, though it has its critics.
The norm of reciprocity is the social expectation that people will respond to each other in kind -- returning benefits for benefits, and responding with either indifference or hostility to harms. The social norm of reciprocity often takes different forms in different areas of social life, or in different societies. All of them, however, are distinct from related ideas such as gratitude, the Golden Rule, or mutual goodwill. See Reciprocity (social and political philosophy) for an analysis of the concepts involved.

The World Tree
The World Tree is a motif present in several religions and mythologies, particularly Indo-European religions. The world tree is represented as a colossal tree which supports the heavens, thereby connecting the heavens, the earth, and, through its roots, the underground. It may also be strongly connected to the motif of the tree of life.
Specific World Trees include Yggdrasil (or Irminsul) in Germanic mythology, the Oak in Slavic and Finnish mythology, and in Hinduism the Ashvastha (a Sacred Fig).

Ferret in the Cathouse
I find the most annoying thing about a Ferret ENFP is their gullibility. If you are an honest Eagle INTP it makes me annoyed to see the Ferrets being taken in by the Charlatan Horsemen ESFJ with the gift of the gab (horseshit). Even worse they can be deceived by the Cat (ISFP) with even worse results from my point of view as Eagles don't get on with Cats (worst match) even worse than the Equine types. Then comes Cat Weasel and Caprice.
Shadow
Everyone carries a shadow, and the less it is embodied in the individual’s conscious life, the blacker and denser it is. At all counts, it forms an unconscious snag, thwarting our most well-meant intentions.— Dr. Carl G. Jung

Psychiatric Charlatans
“The psychiatrist and his front groups operate straight out of the terrorist textbooks. The Mafia looks like a convention of Sunday school teachers compared to these terrorist groups… Thousands and thousands are seized without process of law every week over the "free" world, tortured, castrated, killed. All in the name of ‘mental health.’ Setting himself up as a terror symbol, the psychiatrist kidnaps, tortures and murders without any slightest police interference or action by western security forces.”

Defenestration
Defenestration is the act of throwing someone or something out of a window. The term was coined around the time of an incident in Prague Castle in the year of 1618. The word comes from the Latin de (from; out of) and fenestra (window or opening).[1]
Although defenestrations can be fatal depending on the height of the window through which a person is thrown (see Falling), or lacerations from broken glass, the act of defenestration need not carry the intent or result of death.

The Evil Eye
"AYIN HORAH" - THE EVIL EYE
Q. I'd like to know a bit more about the term "ayin horah" — the "evil eye."
Is there really such a thing, or is it merely superstition?
http://www.arachimusa.org/Index.asp?ArticleID=132&CategoryID=64
A. The term "evil eye" usually refers to something that attracts the attention of others and arouses their jealously. It might be a case of a particularly talented or beautiful child, of physical or mental prowess, of exceptional wealth and popularity, or any other form of success in life.
Drawing attention to oneself is likely to arouse envy and negative criticism. Unfortunately, man's baser nature may prompt him to find consolation in the downfall of those who have succeeded where he feels he has failed: "If I can't have a million dollars, at least let Sydney not have his million either."

Psychology Notes
A psychology grad student an INTP (roughly) said that a good way to think about it is "Sensors see what is, while intuitives see what could be. Perceivers see things as fluid, while Judgers see them as static. Your NPs, then, invent worlds that are filled with possibilities and change moment by moment, while your NJs invent worlds that are fixed. Your SPs see things as they are, but understand that they can change, while your SJs see the world as it is as the only real or meaningful possibility."

Safety First
[quote=cryptonia;50567] I read something (posted in one of the stickies) that said that making an intp feel safe enough that they showed their emotions freely was the key to their heart, and judging by how I tend to feel around people who can do that to me, I believe it..[/quote]
I think that just about sums it up for me. If I feel safe, I am OK. To find somewhere safe is nigh impossible.

Against Bullies (ESTP) and Pony (ESFJ) girls.
Interfering other people and competing males.
Ambush attack by spurned rivals or Crazy Horses. (The lady has to be clear and shut the garage door.)
Where I can be appreciated (not judged prematurely). Thereby increasing confidence.
Prevention against causal relationships (possibility of damage from Sensors).
The Other has to be aware of ongoing intimidation and the effects this may have on the life of an INTP. This could be in the form of opposite gender unwanted stalkers.

Psychological Abuse
Psychological Abuse
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_abuse
Psychological abuse, also referred to as emotional abuse is a form of abuse characterized by a person subjecting or exposing another to behaviour that is psychologically harmful. It involves the wilful infliction of mental or emotional anguish by threat, humiliation, or other verbal and non-verbal conduct. It is often associated with situations of power imbalance, such as abusive relationships and child abuse.
Psychological abuse may occur as bullying of individuals by groups, often children, or it may be by one partner in a relationship. In domestic abuse psychological abuse nearly always precedes physical violence when this occurs, and also accompanies it.
Modern technology had led to new forms of abuse, by text messaging and online cyber-bullying.
Methods of abuse include causing fear by intimidation, threatening physical harm to self, partner, children, or partner's family or friends, destruction of pets and property, forcing isolation from family, friends, or school or work.[1] More subtle tactics include putdowns, hiding objects such as keys, then putting them back without the victim seeing, and denial that previous incidents actually happened.
In domestic abuse victims are frequently in denial about the abuse and are often manipulated into thinking that they are to blame for it. Victims often find it hard to leave an abusive relationship for a variety of reasons, emotional, financial and sometimes religious.

Napoleon Hill
Napoleon Hill (October 25, 1883–November 8, 1970) was an American author who was one of the earliest producers of the modern genre of personal-success literature. His most famous work, Think and Grow Rich, is one of the best-selling books of all time. Hill's works examined the power of personal beliefs, and the role they play in personal success. "What the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve" is one of Hill's hallmark expressions.[1][2] How achievement actually occurs, and a formula for it that puts success in reach for the average person, were the focus of Hill's books.

Introverted Perception
Introverted Perception as the leading process is what accounts for the delay or long processing time in unfamiliar territory and habitual because it sometimes occurs in familiar territory as well, when we decide to change the format of the mind manifesto.
Intuition is regarded as a faster unreliable process because it is based on the environment, and the intuition can vary whether as an NP I feel safe or not. The processing time may also be delayed by thinking, e.g. if there is a danger of a postponed ambush attack by jealous boyfriends or whatever.

The Judge called Um
[quote=slowriot;49443]seriously stop it already. Judging and percieving is not a function, S/N and F/T are. Introversion and extroversion is whether you take an inward or outward perception at the world. Judging and percievíng is in corelation to what extroverted function you use, for percieving its on the N/S functions, judging is on T/F functions. That means for an INTP that the first function is introverted thinking, second function extroverted intuition. For ESFJ's first function extroverted feeling, second function introverted sensing.[/quote]
That's what the High Priest says.
In the Perseus system the NP dominant process is the Questor = Introverted Perception. The characteristic of this that you do not arrange your perception into a preorganized schedule, but just adsorb it to be allocated into your manifesto when appropriate (later). You could also be called a NP Psychedelic or Dragon. Some people associate such a personality with brain chemicals and magic mushrooms. However, this is thought to be incidental to the personality type. Such personality types are attracted to mind blowing experiences rather than the drugs altering their personality, unlocking their doors of perception. High powered NPs and even telepaths have been recognised (they are rare) from young people who have never taken drugs, never smoked and never got drunk. And I don't think they have overindulged in sex either.
Introverted Thinking or Introverted Intuition do not work as the primary process for me. I think this is likely to happen when the Perception score is higher than the Intuition and Sensing is not used. It is NOT expected to be Rational NT immediately. But it is not Irrational SF either. It may appear to outsiders this way though. Therein lies a personality problem. We need to speed up the Thinking process, or reduce Perception to be mainstream.

Stream of consciousness refers to the flow of thoughts in the conscious mind. The full range of thoughts that one can be aware of can form the content of this stream, not just verbal thoughts. Commonly used experimental techniques, including self-reporting, gives easier access to verbal thoughts than to thoughts more closely connected to senses other than hearing and activities other than speaking and writing.

Adsorb for the Manifesto
Intuition and Sensing are a cognitive brain function, nothing to do with the gut. With intuition you process information directly into a knowledge base of your own experience, both past and present. Sensing on the basic animal level processes information on the immediate sense impressions. I link it to information storage of information and even animals do this. Twats (ESFJ) are often referred to as animals because of their inability to intuit. They can drive motor vehicles OK if it was not for the other traffic. Twats are salemans and drivers and they others as commodities or animals like them.Intuits do not always communicate. They may be from different planets. Try mixing a Psi Cop (psychiatrist) with a Druid Priest and they are not the same intuitive thought processes. This could be NJ and NP though.
A Sensor (like a Dog) will let things they do not understand go over the top of them.
An iNtuit (like a Hawk) will rise above it. Intuition says you do not pick a fight in a rival's camp, but a sensor will pick a fight anywhere.
PS: I am an INTP but I do not use Introverted Thinking as my primary process. Work that one out!? I am mostly NP= psychedelic perception or "Adsorb for the Manifesto".
What it means is a long processing time for information. Observe, Orient, Decide, Action.
I the OODA process the Observation process is lengthy, not instant as information is obtained. Too lengthy for functionality in an unfavourable environment, when the iNtuition says No!
In introvert mode, I am not deaf, the information is adsorbed. Not absorbed, which is sponging.

I'm thinking I'm INTJ though, because I am what some people would call a control freak. I will go behind people and "fix" what they didn't do right just because it bugs me otherwise. Is this an INTJ thing?[/QUOTE]
This is INXJ ghastly behaviour right down to a tee. You could get murdered by an INTP for such behaviour.

Beware of the Jaguar
Going Turtle (INXP) is not advised against the speedy Jaguar (ESTP) most dangerous* of the Big Cats. This one can bite through your skull, not just sever your spinal cord. You have to fly away like an Eagle (INTP). Best bet would be a Peregrine (INTP with a lower Perception and quicker flight).
* Shock tactics predation.

Beware of the Hornet
I am not so sure all the figures are accurate on the chart, but it gives a rough view.
With a pinch of salt though. The INTP has compatibility 21+14 for the ENFP (Ferret) but an awful 2+3 for the ESFP (Butterfly). Using the Paragon scale the Possom (ENFP var) with an Intuition of 7/12 would not be much different from a Hornet at N 6/12.

I think Sensor-Perceivers are the best at reading moods (not thoughts) through body language. Intuitive-Perceivers can read unconscious thoughts if they are HIGH enough. This is fantastic.

Ferret & Eagle
Ferret (ENFP) and Eagle (INTP) would be a good match apart from one important thing. Their compatability with friends. Both are enemies of the Lionheart or Cattle Baron (ESTP). But the Ferret can tolerate the Horseman (ESFJ) whereas the Eagle (INTP) cannot for very long and the Snake (ENTP) just spooks them.
I have put the compatability charts at
http://www.glaucus.org.uk/Types-Comm.htm
They are right (from experience) but the greater danger comes with pairings. An ENTP (Snake) facing the adversial combination of a ESFJ & ENFP (Horse & Weasel) or ESFJ & ISTP (Horse & Panda) is heading for trouble. Even worse is an INTP (Eagle) coming against a ESFP & ISFJ (Panther & Mouse) which pretty well explains all my problems.
Worse is the Horseman (ESFJ) and the Sourpuss (ISTP).

When the mist comes down to the watering hole, the Eagle (INTP) cannot see what is going on. This is called the Fog. Sometimes the Turtle (INXP) in its shell is better equipped to function. The Dragon (INFP) withdraws to its barrow and only goes out on crusades. The problem is (and Diogenes was not that bright) that you cannot withdraw from the world and earn your crust or your desires.

An Eagle
Native American poem on the eagle
An eagle does not talk
an eagle listens
and her flight tells her story
and an eagle stops to listen to the river.
I am not so sure that Eagle is quite right ???

Mid-life Crisis
From: How we Develop our Personality Types
Quote: An age-old question which most people have pondered at some point in their lives is "why are we the way we are"? Unfortunately, I can't clue you in on the answer to that question in a really authoritative way, but I can tell you about work that has been done to determine how people's Personality Types are developed.
From 35 - 50 years
We pay attention to our fourth, inferior function. We feel a need to develop it and use it more effectively. Our INFJ begins to use his Extraverted Sensing function. He becomes more aware of his surroundings and begins to take in information from others in a more literal, practical sense. He continues to rely on his dominant Introverted iNtuitive function to take in information, but he is more able to use his Extraverted Sensing function than he has been before in his life. Some researchers have attested that the appearance of our inferior functions at this phase of life may be responsible for what we commonly call the "mid-life crisis".

Beware of the Cat with the Egyptian Ring
She's got everything she needs
She's an artist, she don't look back
She can take the dark out of nighttime
And paint the daytime black.
You will start out standing
Proud to steal her anything she sees
You will start out standing
Proud to steal her anything she sees
But you will wind up peeking through her keyhole
Down upon your knees.
She never stumbles
She's got no place to fall
She never stumbles
She's got no place to fall
She's nobody's child
The Law can't touch her at all.
She wears an Egyptian ring
That sparkles before she speaks
She wears an Egyptian ring
That sparkles before she speaks
She's a hypnotist collector
You are a walking antique.
Bow down to her on Sunday
Salute her when her birthday comes
Bow down to her on Sunday
Salute her when her birthday comes
For Halloween buy her a trumpet
And for Christmas, give it a drum.

Simple Twist of Fate
People tell me it's a sin
To know and feel too much within.
I still believe she was my twin, but I lost the ring.
She was born in spring, but I was born too late
Blame it on a simple twist of fate.

Big Silver Cross pendant on a necklace chain
Always get the Wolf Lady (ENTJ) to pay for the meal the first time around. Then runaway; at least that is what I would do as I am an INTP. In my limited experience the Wolf Lady knows what she wants and is very used to getting it as well. She will know where she wants to go and the partner will have to comply. Mine wanted to go to Spain.
The physical sex bit is very important to them in a relationship, more than any other type (except perhaps the crazy Pony girl ESFJ). Their natural partner is the Cat ISTP, the horror partner for the INTP. The Wolf Lady would visit a male Cathouse. It saves them the bother of being nice to get what they want. That's why you don't pay for the meal.

This is very interesting and if your self analysis is true, I conclude it actually makes the whole Myers-Briggs Jungian style flawed and an illusion.
How did I reach this conclusion: PNIT (as I am an Introvert not an Extrovert, just a careless mistake)
Using my primary process Perception, I did not judge this world view to be correct until I looked into it further
My auxiliary Intuition said it was ingenious
My Introvert said "keep my mouth shut to the INTJs" (cause they would crucify me)
My Thinking said it was an "inductive leap" and all the problems such leaps cause.
I still a supporter of this way of thinking cause it is better than Millon.
I expect anybody with a Perception level of 11.5/12 and knowledge (Intuition) and thinking (IQ 122+) could actually reach the same conclusion. The snag is nobody will believe it because their Perception is rarely than high.

Different Drummers

DIFFERENT DRUMMERS
Excerpted from Please Understand Me II Copyright © 1998 by David Keirsey
If I do not want what you want, please try not to tell me that my want is wrong.
Or if I believe other than you, at least pause before you correct my view.
Or if my emotion is less than yours, or more, given the same circumstances, try not to ask me to feel more strongly or weakly.
Or yet if I act, or fail to act, in the manner of your design for action, let me be.
I do not, for the moment at least, ask you to understand me. That will come only when you are willing to give up changing me into a copy of you.
I may be your spouse, your parent, your offspring, your friend, or your colleague. If you will allow me any of my own wants, or emotions, or beliefs, or actions, then you open yourself, so that some day these ways of mine might not seem so wrong, and might finally appear to you as right -- for me. To put up with me is the first step to understanding me. Not that you embrace my ways as right for you, but that you are no longer irritated or disappointed with me for my seeming waywardness. And in understanding me you might come to prize my differences from you, and, far from seeking to change me, preserve and even nurture those differences.
The point of this book is that people are different from each other, and that no amount of getting after them is going to change them. Nor is there any reason to change them, because the differences are probably good, not bad.
People are different in fundamental ways. They want different things; they have different motives, purposes, aims, values, needs, drives, impulses, urges. Nothing is more fundamental than that. They believe differently: they think, cognize, conceptualize, perceive, understand, comprehend, and cogitate differently. And of course, manners of acting and emoting, governed as they are by wants and beliefs, follow suit and differ radically among people.

Differences between Keirsey and MBTI
Differences between Keirsey and MBTI
http://intjforum.com/showthread.php?p=400139#post400139
I think both the Keirsey and Myers-Briggs are a bit limited in the way they deal with the myriads of personalities. Ingenious world systems created by rationals may even be an illusion but especially appealing to the Hawks (INTJ) who make a judgement call before adsorbing the information like an Eagle (INTP). There is a usefulness in prediction of events and writing fiction and I have tested the former with remarkably accurate results. However, it does not work with NPs to a very great extent. Actually, it probably does work but the extreme Perceiving time span is so great and the window of opportunity so small that it is no practical use and a new system would have to be devised to be all encompassing (if that is what you want).
I am really fond of personality type personality profiles as they are not so cruel as social overlay world systems like the [URL="http://www.millon.net/taxonomy/index.htm%22]Millon[/URL] and the obscene psychiatry of the Fraudians.
Addenda:
Jung's typology was popularized in the United States by Myers-Briggs who added a fourth factor -- the judging-perceiving preference which relates to the propensity to stop perception to make a decision. The judging type does this sooner than the perceiving type.
http://www.gesher.org/Myers-Briggs/On%20Type.HTM
I would go further than Myers-Briggs and fully incorporate the Judging-Perception scale as the most important.
e.g.
I use Perception as my major MO in ordinary circumstances (unless I paid for a specific agenda, out of character type, most work involves this). The Guardians (SJ) of their personal interests do not like Dragons (NP) and will not answer the Questor. Nothing changes.
Important reference:
Keirsey Temperament versus Myers-Briggs Types.
What's the difference?
Compared to the difference between astrology, or even other non-Jungian based theories or methods of classifying personality, there isn't much difference at a superficial level. However, there are some major practical differences and a large theoretical difference between the two bodies of work. The first essential difference is that Keirsey describes observed long term behaviorial patterns, Myers often describes what people have in mind. The second essential difference is Myers used a linear four factor model to characterize "invariant" patterns of behavior of the individual throughout their lifetime, whereas Keirsey uses a systems field theory model to characterize these patterns. Lastly, the problems of intelligence and madness, that is, what are they are and how they relate to temperament, was not effectively addressed by Jung or Myers.
To illustrate graphically, the difference between the two bodies of work, one can look at the following simplifications of how the each theory represents the "temperament" and "character" of an individual, although Myers did not explicitly address the notions of temperament and character.

PNIT
An alternative view of the system.
Instead of following the conventional system, you could (if you so desired) arrange your attributes in the order of highest importance.
e.g. (in my case) PNIT
So I could say my MO of my type is to first perceive (collect information rather than following an agenda), second to intuit (see the whole environment rather than to focus on specifics), introversion is narrow over thinking, so I should really keep things to myself (or I may express myself based on perception and intuition before thinking out the personal consequences and especially the personal feelings of the crazies) (SF).
In fact, I am going to so far that the Perseus system is better ! It is more realistic in following the motives of the others.
The opposite is a JSEF the Horse (or similar animal: Camel, Unicorn, Wild Mustang). Not only can the values of each initial vary, but the order of letters can vary as well. Each one has a different animal allocation.

Somatotypes
Somatotypes
Sheldon’s “somatotypes” and their supposed associated psychological traits can be summarised as follows:
Ectomorphic: characterized by long and thin muscles/limbs and low fat storage; usually referred to as slim.
Mesomorphic: characterized by large bones, solid torso, low fat levels, wide shoulders with a narrow waist.
Endomorphic: characterized by increased fat storage, a wide waist and a large bone structure.

Heroic Archetypes
Carol Pearson, in Awakening The Heroes Within, describes twelve archetypes, each of which can go on a heroic quest. It is notable that some of these are not 'traditional' heroes in the sense of having archetypal strength of body or mind.

Mongoosed
Well done. I first knew the term as "helicoptering" + "weasel" but "mongoosed" is more detailed. ESFJ & ENFP plot.
Best Partner
Although two well-developed individuals of any type can enjoy a healthy relationship, the INTP's natural partner is the ENTJ, or the ESTJ. The INTP's dominant function of Introverted Thinking is best matched with a partner whose personality is dominated by Extraverted Thinking. The INTP/ENTJ match is ideal, because these types shared Intuition as a common way of perceiving the world, but INTP/ESTJ is also a good match.

But suppose I suggest that my dominant function is Introverted Perception, then my best match would be Extroverted Perception which means a ESFP or ENFP. This might mean a girl musician/performer or female journalist.

Cognitive Processes Example
http://www.cognitiveprocesses.com/intp.html
Jung's typology was popularized in the United States by Myers-Briggs who added a fourth factor -- the judging-perceiving preference which relates to the propensity to stop perception to make a decision. The judging type does this sooner than the perceiving type.

INTJs v INTPs
As an Architect of their own ideas a INTP with a high perception load (J 11/12 P) is not likely to take Keirsey or Myers-Briggs at face value. But bearing in mind a INTJ (with J 5/12 P) is going to be very alike a INTP (J 7/12 P).

So, some ideas which the INTJ will automatically reject as wrong! The INTP may actually use Introverted Perception (new concept) as the primary function and Extraverted Intuition as auxilary. So instead of judging people at the first instance, (s)he may attempt to make communications, make connections or do telepathic scanning (intrusion).
An INTP might NOT trust the test results and devise his own.
e.g.
Is the glass half full or liquid or half empty?
Answers:
Half full
Half empty
Half full of liquid and half full of air
Does it move?

Perseus System: J-P Scale
As in the work place the difference between Judgement and Perception is the major cause of conflict, I expect the same is important in all realms of life. Hence, the Perseus system would stress this difference more than the others with the Extroversion-Introversion one the least important.
