Hi Marco & All,

On June 17 I shared a vague dynamic insight:
<<I now see how the MOQ can serve as "a
'machine code' for something beyond Intellect" (Bo)- a
consolidation of all 4 levels into ultimate reality.>>

Marco responded with:
<<This is purely Norwegian MOQism.
We partly agree, I guess, if you have read my previous point. But can
you explain me why the only fact that MOQ can explain the SOL necessarily
leads to a new level?>>

In answering Marco's question, I'm also going to revise my previous answer
to question #4, "What are the goals of the Intellectual Level?" One of the
benefits of being a newcomer here, is the freedom to change one's position
on a regular basis ;)

Jonathan's trinity- Intellectualization-Conceptualization-Realization is
IMO a feasible (intellectual) formulation of the process in which the
human brain constructs static patterns of value from the "undifferentiated
seamless continuum" (thanks, Rog, for this phrase). By the way, my attempt
to broaden this process (STIMULUS - INTERPRETATION - CONFLICT - PLANNING -
ACTION) (June 22 MF post) was intended to place Jonathan's trinity into a
general context, as intellectualization cannot occur without some initial
(neural) stimulus (DQ).

The highest qualityt intellectual pattern (HQIP) which recognizes that all
intellectual patterns precede reality is different from SO intellectual
patterns: SO-intellect constructs static patterns of value by
conceptualizing reality, whereas the HIP is constructed by
intellectualizing about the intellectual process. It is the recursive
ability of language that allows for 'thinking about thinking'. One of the
MOQ's values is that it creates a SO-free space within which to construct
this quality pattern. Because the HQIP exposes the fallacy of SO-thinking-
that language adequately can contain reality, the q-human's perception of
reality can potentially become externalized to the point whereat reality
is, as it was at birth, a undifferentiated seamless continuum.

So the goal of the Intellectual Level IMHO is escape from SO thinking into
an as yet undefined quietism.

Thanks for reading,

Mark
