Welcome to the International Consortium of Parse Scholars' Home Page!
The symbol of human becoming was inspired by Dr. Parse and originally designed in black, white, and green by Alj Mary for the cover of Man-Living-Health: A Theory of Nursing. The black and white colors were chosen to represent apparent opposites-paradox-which is significant to the ontology of human becoming. The green is the color of hope, representing ongoing human-universe emergence. The center joining of the swirling ribbons represents the cocreated mutual human-universe process at the ontological level and the nurse-person process and researcher-participant process at the methodological level. The combination of green and black swirls intertwining represents human-universe cocreation as an ongoing process of becoming.
