What is Culture?Culture represents the
“normative system” in a social community for how to interpret events and how to respond to them.
Not all individuals in a cultural community necessarily think, feel and act according to the normative system.
Preference within a community defines at the group level the identified cultural patterns – which structure interaction within the community.

Maslow’s Self Actualization
“Teach people to be authentic…”“Teach people to transcend their cultural
conditioning…”“Help people discover their vocations…callings, fates or
destinies…”“We should refresh consciousness, teach people to
appreciate beauty…”“We should teach people to transcend trifling problems
and grapple with life’s serious problems…”
