Hi LS,
Rich is touching a very important point. It is one thing to understand the
MOQ and another to try to explain it. To be able to do both, will unable a
person to descend into the realm of enlightenment and hence make that
person use his/her abilities more efficiently.
I have notice, for example that all of us understand the classical aspect
of the MOQ. But, the romantic aspect, and another aspect which I can't
find a name for (yet, I am working on it).
[Note to the committee: this is related to power, because if you don't
know how and why you use a tool, then there is not Power].
The MOQ has three aspects:
1.- Classical: Its parts....we all know inorganic, biolo....etc
2.- Romantic: How the parts inter-relate to each other. i.e. From low
to high, inorganic, biological, social, intellectual; here the
intellectual level ranks HIGHER. BUT, at the same time, each level's
'life' DEPENDS on the lower level. It is a dual relationship, that HAS to
be very clear. That dependence of the higher levels on the lower levels is
very important, and it never fails to come back and bite a big chunk out
of you if you ignore it. The lower levels have a way to force the upper
levels to 'be good to them' otherwise the whole pyramid will collapse.
3.-{[ ]}.- I can't find the words to describe this part. But it
relates to the second Law of Thermodynamics. Entropy, space. I have an
image in my mind, but I can't put it to words. I need to work more on
it/////////mix with a very strong 'will' or feeling, that could make the
person act without thinking ot stops that person right on his/her tracks.
It has to do with that moment on time when a static pattern and a dynamic
pattern meet on the same space. I definably have to work on this area,
maybe the LS could help me here.
Parts 1, 2, and 3 are the essence of the MOQ. A lot of times I catch
myself acting only on part (1) and I see a lot of the LS members 'enclosed
on that classical level'.
