Question 2)Having first read the two Hindu accounts of creation, which are taken from theRig Veda[available inCourse Documents,] please answer the following questions:

Who is ‘the One’ in the first Vedic account? [Who Can Say How Creation Happened? That One] And why do you think the author might be reluctant to describe the motive of creation in the first place?

Do you sense humor, do you sense humility, or do you think the author truly was unaware of the motive?

Does this creation story seem to be more philosophical than the second one? Why do you think that might be the case?

The second Vedic account [Creation as Cosmic Sacrifice] comes from the same religious tradition [Hinduism] as the first one, yet it is quite different from the first and most likely was authored by someone else. What possible differences and similarities exist between the two stories? [Be specific here.]

Could the first account be seen as expressing more of what might be called a ‘monotheistic’ world-view? Or are both stories examples of ‘polytheistic’ world-views? [Please explain your answers in detail by referring to the texts.]

Your response should be aminimum of 200 words.

300 words and it needs other journals other than the book sense. proper formatting APA

Senge (2006, p. 79) explains the two most basic loops used system diagrams. These are reinforcing and balancing loops. From your experience provide an example of a reinforcing and a balancing loop. (There are several examples given in 5th D to help you get started.) Further, Senge proposes that many events that may be seen as linear with a cause and effective relationship may actually be better understood as a loop. Senge calls us to shift from linear thinking.

How might systems thinking change your perception of a situation?

Project Deliverable 4: Cloud Technology and Virtualization

With the merger of your company with a multinational company, you have come to realize that progressive solutions are necessary to defray some of the associated information technology costs. Company executives believe that using cloud technology and virtualization is becoming the standard for companies that are engaged in Internet-based technologies. Your company is on the verge of global marketing and competition; therefore, your company needs to make smarter decisions and improve global business performance. Cloud technology and virtualization are believed to provide business insights without enormous infrastructure enhancements. The executive board is aware of the profound benefits of cloud technology and virtualization but is apprehensive because they are unfamiliar with the look and feel of the technology. The executive team is interested in your recommendations and eagerly waiting for your forward-thinking viewpoint.

In my future practice as an advanced nurse I will ensure that I promote the access to healthcare in my area. This will be accomplished by using the competencies in the health care field like: Advocacy, Case management, and Public policy. The American Nurses Association (ANA) have confidence in that advocacy is a fundamental of nursing. My Nurse Practitioner job will be based on advocate for my patients in any workplaces, or communities. Also, legislative and political advocacy are significant to progressing the nursing and Nurse Practitioner profession in the patient care(ANA, 2020).

Nurses are familiar with health promotion and helping people with decisions toward their health. Therefore, I believe that Nurse Practitioner can improve Healthcare Access, for example, implementing independent transportation network. Elderly people in the United States generally do not drive and this has a big impact on their health. So, it may be good idea to use Mobile Clinics, which is very popular today, to visit the Patient. For poor people, it could help them to get their medications, and get to a doctor appointment. Case management is very important in the community systems teamwork. Case management could organize trips, with health needs, assistance with childcare, and assistance with family(Health, 2018). Nurses’ policy influence is nurses’ ability in prompting decisions and matters related to health over political knowledge, good communication, and teamwork with other members of the health team. This will result in the improvement of nurses’ job environment and increases access to health care for many patients(NLN, 2020).
