Yes, we each can come at this differently. I was
just wondering about curiousity? Doesn't it suggest
we can know something we don't already know, and need
to know or seek some kind of way that others have
found? Curiosity can also mean we naturally learn,
but learn what? And how? I don't think learning
facts without any pragmatic/practical application is
very compassionate in the long run.

Well, you are all four levels.
[Marsha]
> What are they?
Intellectual, social, organic, and inorganic.
[Marsha]
> How do they work?
Yes, collecting scientific data helps in
understanding how they work, and this kind of studying
continues.
[Marsha]
> What sets them to activate?
Dynamic quality
[Marsha]
> Should they exist?
They do.
[Marsha]
> What benefits?
The later is morally to benefit the
former/founding level. These levels work within
themselves to meet this moral obligation.
[Marsha]
> Is something harmed? What do they influence?
These last two questions are important. To
collect knowledge without any helpful application
isn't very compassionate. Maybe in time this
collected knowledge, 'just the facts', will help out
somewhere, but then somebody would need to find
meaning, value in these facts and find pertinate
application. I keep thinking how the intellectual
level has a moral obligation to help the social level.
[Marsha]
> If they disintegrate, same questions? Are they a
subset of other
> patterns?
Sure patterns are in four levels. They may
generate into a higher level or degenerate into a
lower level.
[Marsha]
> What do they serve?
Not sure of the question.
[Marsha]
> Are they common in other individuals?
Not sure of the question.
[Marsha]
> How far does that commonality reach?
Until they differ.
[Marsha]
> Etc., etc., etc....
What etc..., etc...? dynamic quality.
[Marsha]
> Why wonder you might ask? I believe, as Socrates
stated, that an
> unexamined life is not worth living. Huh?
true. I don't ask why to wondering. But disney
world dreaming only goes so far, but then again, Mr.
Disney came up with a place that is applicable to his
dreams.
[Marsha]
> To become a truer, clearer, more decisive
constellation.
sure, why not, but how does this help the social
level?
thanks.
