The Self
Discuss the avocado idea of the self and explain at least one version of the idea that human beings have a shared essential nature. Contrast this account with the artichoke idea of the self (drawing upon phenomenology and existentialism to develop your account) and a discussion of how the modern/avocado and postmodern/artichoke ideas of the self differ.
" THE SELF, WHAT ACTUALLY SELF STAND FOR , WE MUST THROW LIGHT ON THIS TOPIC BEFORE FUTHER DISCUSSION".
SELF, stands for selves where a person make his on personality to establish his own existence in society, We, all human being​ have a tendency to grow our generation and personality in our society.
Now, we will come to question on idea of avocado on self, Avocado is a kind of fruit which is having green colour with pear like shape ,have a single seed in his middle. Means, this fruit have tendency to grow ,to get multiple generation to generation to establish his exiestence in socitey. Means, its clear that avocado idea of self is to maintain his selves, his persona, his ego day by day and flourish it genration to generation. This is direct example supporting human being role on earth, we all human being have desire to grow to establish a family and we want to establish our existence on earth, so we come to kown longlasting. That's are the reason we work hard to achieve name and fame so our coming generation get benefit from that and we get respect in society and our coming generation ll flourish and maintain that fame. We, human being have desire and tendency to grow and flourish just like an Avocado, and this is also a rule of nature.
In, other hand Artichoke idea of self , where Artichoke is a layered flower which is covered with layers without a center having any fruits or seed. Means, this fruit ends with his own end because this flower dont't have seed which help in growing another plant of this flower. Means, this flower existence ends with his own existences. With this idea of self we can throw light on existentialism idea, who all defined existentialism believe on individual choice and freedom, individual existence. Means, according to existentialism idea of self is its a individual choice what they exactly want from there life, whether they want to grow or want to exit with themselves. Artichoke idea of self is like a belivers of existentialism only, Artichoke choosed to end his existence with himself.
CONCLUSION :- This Avocado And Artichoke both are a gift of nature but that both have a different features and choices. Both have there personal idea of self which is differ form each other. But, as this world is free all have a rights to make there own decision same all human being have there own choice of selection for self.
