Self Organizing Criticality
Brain's ability to self-transcend to realize relevant information when facing a dynamically complex environment
a more intelligent brain can apply SOC with a wider variety of environments
Example
The brain constantly differentiates an environment to establish the complex components of it and reorganizes those into a simpler system
Meta-Meaning Relations
Using Agent-Arena coupling to make sense of things
Example
World View Attunement
In the bronze age, we experienced a coupled A-A relationship with the cosmos because the way we thought our mind worked aligned with our presumed motives of the environment (the geocentric earth)
We believed our actions had meaning
Agent-Arena coupling
Organizing your thoughts and behaviour so your actions fit the context at hand
Gives a sense of meaning to our motives
#
3 Orders
Nomological
Knowing is to do SOC with the world
#
Platonic
Narrative
Events occur uniquely and linearly
Unlike nomological where things occur in a cyclical fashion
#
Christian view
Supplied a story to all the intentions of the platonic world - but in this case, the intent was the coming of christ
Beginning -> Climax -> End
NormativeGreek and Christian Spirituality
(Hybrid)
Love is the final stage of SOC where we can understand the motives of god and thus be intimately connected to him
Mythos
Stories, Symbols, and Rituals
Myth
Perennial Parable
Symbols
Metaphorical
Creating an association between two things that haven't been established yet
Gets us to understand the transjective
Enables us to understand our unconscious processes
by being able to see how we associate two unrelated things
provides a deep understanding of our reality
