Since you neglected to repost what you wrote, hard for me to answer your first 
question.  As far as Andre's statements, also missing, mother-instinct and 
self-sacrifice are patterns  conceptualized.  I'm guessing that is what he 
meant.

I meant that patterns are not individual, bounded, discrete, independent, 
entities.  To repeat patterns exist across many individuals and across many 
generations of of time.  Patterns are ever-changing, relative and impermanent.  
Ever-changing, relative and impermanent does not mean without similarity.  
Experiences can be very different and still hang together as similar to other 
experiences.  The repetition and similarity create the pattern, yes?
