Krimel, I agree with you here. I would go as far
to state that change is the impression of dynamic
quality. By noting change I would say one has been
able to staticly latch or staticly suggest something
even if this something is as vague as change. I also
see the levels, as "we ascend them" do increase in the
rate of change, thus, freeing them up for change. The
inorganic level doesn't change much. Chaos is another
topic of course, which is a dismissal of any
staticness.

Actually, I think and have said many times that Chaos is the topic.

[This is an interesting correlation between
intellect and society. Perhaps, also, western
philosophy is influenced by the Christian notion or
the Christian notion is influenced by (either way this
is a notion in society today) earth is evil, material
things are evil, and as we are swollowed up by more
and more materialistic ventures or accumulative
valuing in our daily routine (as opposed to the higher
quality pursuits of social and intellectual patterns)
the feedback between material things are bad and
material things are needed might have something to do
with getting the intellectual patterns away from a
everyday living. As in the cartoon Nemo when the
little girl loudly taps on the aquarium where the
starfish is, and the starfish keeps saying, "Find a
happy place, find a happy place, find a happy place!".

This notion of the material world being evil seems to arise from the
Platonic forms. My take is that Plato realized the value of the pure
constructions of the mathematical world idealized in Greek geometry. A
Euclidian triangle is perfect. The triangle we draw with a compass and
protractor is not. The dread of the material world that you note is an
extension of this.
Christianity is a synthesis of Greek philosophy and Jewish ethics but that
is another topic...
