    Hi Mark,

    Vac>> 1. Can we say that person A is more Dynamic then person B?
    Vac>> Mark 4-8-04: This can be qualified because a 'person' is given quite a
    Vac>> detailed description in the MOQ: A person is dominated by a combination
    of four
    Vac>> levels of evolutionary related static patterns, Inorganic, Organic,
    Social and
    Vac>> Intellectual, and these levels are responding to DQ at the same time.

    You know, Mark, something troubles me in this description. It sounds too
    "objective" to me, that is, too far from what a certain human being (whatever his
    metaphysical status is) experiences. Maybe this description is all right as
    long as only philosophy is concerned, but I feel it is not very convenient for
    psychology.

    Mark 8-8-04: Hello Ilya, This description of a 'person' is an intellectual
    postulation. That is to say, it is an Intellectual pattern of value. As such, it
    is not objective; Intellectual patterns of value are derived from experience,
    which is Dynamic.

    Ilya:
    I invented a new term today, DYNAMIC PRESSURE, and want to present it to you
    and ask what you think about it.

    DYNAMIC PRESSURE is experienced by person drive from static patters of his
    life toward unknown. Experienced by person force that drives him toward he does
    know what, you understand, Mark?

    Mark 8-8-04: I like it Ilya. I describe coherence as the cutting pressure.

    Ilya:
    If we use this new term, we don't have to define "DYNAMICNESS" and explain
    what means saying that one person is more Dynamic than another. We may just say
    that a person A experiences much more DYNAMIC PRESSURE than a person B. Or,
    that a person A experiences much more DYNAMIC PRESSURE at the moment of time t1
    than he experienced at the moment of time t2.

    Now. If a person experiences little DYNAMIC PRESSURE, he is dominated
    completely by static patterns. His life is tepid and measured. He may be more or less
    harmonious depending on how coherent his static pattern levels are, but he
    has comparatively little chances to become either mental hospital patient or
    great spiritual leader. He is ordinary very small detail in the body of the
    Giant.

    If a person experiences great DYNAMIC PRESSURE, there are two possibilities.
    If this person's static pattern levels are very coherent, his life is a mystic
    experience of a great intensity. Example of such a person - Jesus Christ.

    Mark 8-8-04: I think i understand.

    If this person's static pattern levels are NOT coherent at all, it's hard to
    envy him. His life is complete nightmare. He is being torn apart by he doesn't
    understand what. In such a state some people seek rescue at psychoanalysts,
    some in religion, some in alcohol and drugs. Some may clench teeth tight and
    cling to whatever static patterns they had (and thus shut themselves from any
    possibility for growth). Some may stubbornly seek for Truth, Reason (or whatever
    they would call it) and eventually invent something like MOQ :-)

    Well, that's what I wanted to tell you and ask your opinion about, Mark. If
    you tell me how this description fits with the MOQ theory and what you
    personally think about it, I would be very grateful.

    Best regards,
    Ilya

    Mark 8-8-04: I think we are in close agreement. :-)
    All the best,
    Mark
