Thanks Platt,
That is a good question. I would think that Dynamic Quality is a type of energy that directs "energy" into organizational patterns. I think it is the"mystical what" that attempts to organize energy into patterns out of chaos. Here is a twisted thought that I have had about this: Most think the big bang was the beginning of the universe, but what if it was the destruction or explosion of ultimate organization? The explosion sent everything into chaos. Dynamic Quality is the driving force of organization that is attempting to reorganize this "energy" at the lost static patterns. The thing that caused the big bang is the Dynamic Quality of Dynamic Quality... anyway...a twist.
