No courage needed, Raffi, and thanks for asking. And as usual my good friend Florian has beaten me to the draw (now there is an Americanism from the Wild West!). And. my meaning is actually very simple. As you know I think (along with a whole mess of other folks) that self organization is a fundamental process in the cosmos, affecting everything, everybody, and all systems from the beginning - 13.7 billion years ago. It is what we are and what we do -- and we have been doing it as a species for a long time, and as individuals, for all of our lives. All that happens in Open Space is that we invite that age old process to begin, or begin again if it has gotten stalled for whatever reason. There is nothing to learn, we just have to remember what we already are. It is built in, hardwired in each and every one of us. Which means there really isn't anything for us to do (in terms of the process) . it happens all by itself. I suppose it is a small play on words, but actually the process does us - as has been the case for some time. Doubtless from the beginning of time. I think.
