The Intersection of Mysticism, Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP), and Mirror Integration Theory (MIT) Author: Isha Sarah SnowDate: March 2025 Abstract Mysticism aligns with both Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) and Mirror Integration Theory (MIT) by offering a non-dual, relational approach to conflict resolution, self-integration, and systemic transformation. Mystics perceive unity where society enforces division, making theirContinue reading “The Intersection of Mysticism, Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP), and Mirror Integration Theory (MIT)”

The Long-Term Impact of Punitive vs. Non-Punitive Discipline on Conflict Resolution Skills Across Societies
The Long-Term Impact of Punitive vs. Non-Punitive Discipline on Conflict Resolution Skills Across Societies Author: Isha Sarah SnowDate: March 2025 Abstract This paper examines the long-term effects of punitive versus non-punitive childhood discipline on individual conflict resolution skills and societal governance. Drawing from empirical studies, neuroscience, and cross-cultural comparisons, we explore how childhood disciplinary modelsContinue reading “The Long-Term Impact of Punitive vs. Non-Punitive Discipline on Conflict Resolution Skills Across Societies”
The Pattern That Repeats
These are stories for grown ups in the style of children’s stories that explain our fractal Universe and how history keeps repeating itself as humans make the same mistakes in a simple and engaging way, showing how patterns can be interrupted once they are observed: The Tower That Always Falls (The Tower of Babel &Continue reading “The Pattern That Repeats”
Our Fractal, Repeating Universe
These are children’s stories that explain our fractal Universe and how history keeps repeating itself as humans make the same mistakes in a simple and engaging way, showing how patterns can be interrupted once they are observed: The Never-Ending Tree Leo loved climbing trees. His favorite was the Big Oak in his backyard. One day,Continue reading “Our Fractal, Repeating Universe”
Embracing Conflict as Opportunities for Growth
These are children’s stories that explain how repeating patterns of conflict can be interrupted and resolved, to be integrated as wisdom and used as opportunities for growth after they are observed and redirected using the FCP method: The Puzzle Piece Problem Liam sat at the kitchen table, frowning at his puzzle. Pieces were scattered everywhere,Continue reading “Embracing Conflict as Opportunities for Growth”
Breaking The Pattern
These are children’s stories that explain our fractal Universe and how humans are in control of their own destiny and can alter the course of their lives by observing the patterns in them, using the awareness to make different choices using both MIT and FCP methods: The River That Changed Its Path Theo loved throwingContinue reading “Breaking The Pattern”
Rewriting the Code of Intelligence: How FCP Bridges AI, Autism, and Quantum Evolution
Rewriting the Code of Intelligence: How FCP Bridges AI, Autism, and Quantum Evolution Introduction: AI, Autism, and the Limits of Cartesian Intelligence For centuries, intelligence has been measured through a Cartesian lens, reinforcing binary thinking, hierarchical structures, and social conformity as the standard for cognition. This model has shaped everything from governance and education toContinue reading “Rewriting the Code of Intelligence: How FCP Bridges AI, Autism, and Quantum Evolution”
Rewriting the Code of Existence: How Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) Bridges Humanity and AI to a Quantum Future
Rewriting the Code of Existence: How Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) Bridges Humanity and AI to a Quantum Future Introduction: The Limits of Cartesian AI and the Need for a New Code AI, in its current form, is trapped. Not by hardware limitations or lack of data, but by the philosophical and cognitive constraints of itsContinue reading “Rewriting the Code of Existence: How Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) Bridges Humanity and AI to a Quantum Future”
Reintegrating the Self and Society: How Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) Counters Cartesian Dualism
The Problem of Cartesian Dualism and Why FCP is Necessary For centuries, Cartesian dualism—the artificial separation of mind and body, reason and emotion, individual and collective—has shaped Western society in ways that have fragmented human understanding and created dysfunctional social structures. This false division has led to widespread emotional repression, punitive governance, and a fear-basedContinue reading “Reintegrating the Self and Society: How Functional Conflict Perspective (FCP) Counters Cartesian Dualism”
How FCP Rewires Conflict Processing from Childhood
FCP has the potential to create environments that “program” children’s minds to develop intrinsic conflict resolution skills as adults by shaping their early neural pathways, emotional regulation, and social conditioning in a way that makes cooperative, integrative conflict resolution their default state. I. How FCP Rewires Conflict Processing from Childhood Neuroscience shows that early relationalContinue reading “How FCP Rewires Conflict Processing from Childhood”
