In the seventies, I was enticed by a few ideas, that were around synchronously, like the rational and holistic brain, Tonal and Nagual, and Colin Wilson’s ideas on intentionality and the search for meaning. I got them in action now . . . for those who don’t know what I’m really up too.

We touch the world with intent. The optimums lie in this direction. If we disconnect, or are unaware of this function, we may just move into the separate, rational position; but the basic intrinsic gestalt, field of meaning is still there.

There are also patterns to this direction of intent, figure/grounds. These are our Life Worlds. But the Greater World, the full field of meaning, offers guidance, fills in the gaps, adds direction. It has more knowledge, wisdom, overseeing all the patterns. There is an evolving interaction possible here.

So where I’m at:

“An intrinsic self, entwined within the universe, in an interactive field of meaning and knowledge.”
