11. Self-Discovery Activity

12. You are in an old, abandoned building where no human has set foot for years and have discovered a staircase leading underground.

13. Slowly you make your way down counting the steps as you go. One step, two, three, how many steps are there to the bottom of the stairs?

14. The underground room is peach black. Then, from the darkness you hear another person.

15. Is the person weeping softly or moaning wordlessly? Is it a voice speaking to you? How do you react on hearing this other person? Do you try to search out the source?

16. Is it your first instinct to run up the stairs without looking back? Or are you paralyzed with fear and frozen where you stand?

17. You hear a person now calling your name and see a figure descending from the light at the top of the stairs. Who is this person coming down the stairs?

18. Self-Discovery Interpretation

19. Abandoned buildings and underground rooms are highly symbolic of buried memories and old psychological scars. All of us had an experience we’d rather not recall or a heartbreak we thought we’d forgotten. But the memory is not so easily erased and the things we hope to forget lingering for longer than we’d like to admit.

20. The number of steps to the bottom of the stairs indicates the impact of psychological scars you are bearing. Those who said that there are only few stairs feel little adverse effect from the past. But those who describe a long staircase leading deep into the earth carry a corresponding deep wound inside.

21. The sounds you heard out of the darkness reveal how you get through bad experiences in the past. Those who said they heard weeping have comforted by others in times of trouble and recovered with the help they received. People who took care of you in the darkness have helped you become the person you are today. The tears you cried were not in vain.

22. People who heard wordless moaning went through hard times in their past alone. The moaning you hear in the dark is your own buried pain. Perhaps the time has come to open the door and let the sunshine in. Things won’t look so bleak in the light of the day.

23. Those who heard a voice speaking to them wear their old scars like a badge of honor refusing to think of them as wounds. Nietzsche said, “that which does not kill us, make us stronger.”

24. Your reaction to the sounds in darkness shows how you deal with the painful aspects of your past. If you search for the source of the sound, it’s likely you show the same take charge attitude in your own life. By facing your problems head on you’re bound to discover solutions.

25. Those who run straight back the stairs without confronting the sounds have the history of ignoring problems in the hopes that they’ll just go away. This approach may work sometimes but don’t be surprised when the trouble stays around longer sometimes you need to stand and face your fears.

26. Those who are frozen in place with fear it may mean that you have unresolved conflicts in your own past that continue to haunt you and keep you from moving ahead with your life.

27. The person who appeared at the top of the stairs calling your name is someone you feel you can rely on in times of trouble. The name you gave is the person you believe will comfort you and help you to heal your wounds.

28. KOKOLOGY

29. Kokology comes in two words, “ kokoro ” a Japanese word which means a soul or spirit and “logos” that comes from the Greek word which means study. This simply means kokology is a study of soul or spirit.

30. The psychological questions are designed to reveal one’s hidden attitudes about sex, family, love, work, etc. This is essentially a game of self-discovery that can provide interesting and often hilarious insight by answering questions to seemingly innocent topics.
