I accept that these are conventional (static) notions, but not Ultimately real.  While living within a conventional culture it seems wise to sustain social and biological patterns whenever necessary for one will be held responsible to that level's "moral" code (laws and punishment. )

Marsha,

It means whatever it conventional means.  What is the meaning of the pattern named Justice?  How would you describe its meaning?  How would you describe the meaning of any pattern.   I understand static patterns to represent a collection of interdependent, ever-changing particular momentary events (process) which constantly change as they arise, abide and pass away: and as they are continually altered by an individual’s static history and the dynamics of the event.  I have mentioned before that I tend also to think of patterns, pattern(x) for instance, to include all-that-is opposite-from-non-pattern(x).  That may include a dictionary definition.  -  The horns of a rabbit might be a static notion or pattern.  

How well do you think you understand my explanation?
