Abstract
Deep Heuristics is a useful methodological tool for inquiring into the natures of significant and compelling potentiating relationships. These relationships are often found to be potentiating relationships in that they inspire the actualization of our potential. Grounded in transformative philosophy, deep heuristics is an emergent research methodology designed to probe the depths of compelling and significant transformational relationships. This pairing allows for the generation of a useful method for revealing and obtaining a deep understanding of rich, nuanced, and complex aspects of human experience. The central purpose of transformative inquiry is to understand the transformational process--in particular as it relates to the actualization of human potential--generated by these significant and compelling transformational relationships.
Heuristic Research follows six phases: (1) initial engagement; (2) immersion; (3) incubation; (4) illumination; (5) explication; and, (6) creative synthesis (Moustakas, 1990). While deep heuristics follows a similar intuitive path of exploration, it also purposes itself at probing deeper towards understanding the compelling and significant relationships that lead to personal and transpersonal transformations or to transformative learning. As a result, deep heuristics seeks a deeper understanding of our compelling and significant potentiating relationships in order to both foster and fertilize their transformative potentials. Therefore in deep heuristics, initial engagement of heuristic research becomes deep ecological engagement; immersion becomes deep immersion; incubation becomes creative or personal transcendence; illumination becomes enlightenment; explication becomes revelation; and creative synthesis becomes cultivating creative synergy in the investigation of compelling and significant potentiating relationships.
