yep

the physical journeys module simply asks you to demonstrate how a physical journey can lead to a form of enlighenment. Enlighenment is simply a better understanding of the human condition or your own sense of self

Yeah emca is right.

All these journey essays ask the same thing pretty much, they just change the wording. :)

So you've got to tell them what they want to hear. An imaginative journey serves to change the individual as it is in essence a form of self-enlightenment. Those who undertake this kind of journey usually learn about themselves through it. More often than not it is a positive change. Thus, the person comes back a different person, so to speak. They have become aware of themselves and their surroundings.

Feel free to pester me for more help if it still isn't clear. Good luck.

That question is basically asking you to talk about change. Any kind of change... in attitude, mindset, position etc. If you're having trouble seeing how a character changes, then you're analysing a text with a bad portrayal of a journey.
