What this questionnaire shows
Zhiva is an image of personal resources and attention in the institute’s tradition. Nav refers to past experience, Yav to the situation you observe, and Prav to your chosen direction. These are terms within the author’s model.
The questions cover recurring situations, resources, personal practice, comparison, responsibility and news. The result is a simple distribution of the selected answers. It is not a validated psychological test or medical diagnosis.
Some action-focused answers are clarified with a concrete example. The clarification is used in the distribution. Ties produce a mixed result rather than assigning a single type.
