Building Blocks

Goodness All Round

The discovery of the Primal Injunctions-RH" (shown below right) provides us with the building blocks for producing goodness.

In whatever I attempt, I must remain authentic and true to who I am—otherwise the goodness would be a sham. I cannot live life as a cardboard cut-out: I need an intense and vital individuality. Goodness may well preserve humanity and it can better the lives of others, but it must better my psychosocial world as well. Anyone who says otherwise is hypocritical or self-deluded.

The Root Hierarchy can be divided into a Transcendence part above, an Actualization part below, and these are mediated via EL4-Experience.

Such betterment for myself is provided by the lower three Injunctions because:

However, betterment for others is the main focus in the upper three Injunctions: 

It seems caring about others-RL"4, the central Injunction, is the crucial mediator and reference point for goodness. That is hardly surprising. It must be self-evident that no-one generates goodness by callously riding roughshod over others.

Solution & Puzzle

The relevant Structural Hierarchy (RsH") requires all Primal Injunctions, individuality-driven and anti-egotistical, to operate in every grouping (i.e. level). This should enable a model for the authentic generation of goodness.

However, the Primal Injunctions are presented as rules, not methods, choices or spheres of living. So it is necessary to understand how they can serve as universal vehicles for goodness, i.e. simple processes found in all societies.

To orient myself, I started this inquiry at the obvious motivational source: the Will with its capacity for «good» energies i.e. goodwill.

ClosedFramework Construction

Because the Primal Injunctions form the Root's Tertiary Hierarchy in a holistic way, the existence of a Structural Tertiary Hierarchy (RsH") would be expected.

In such a hierarchy, every Level is a Grouping that includes all 7 Levels of the originating hierarchy. So the three upper anti-egotistic vehicles will show up in every Level/Grouping, and the three lower individuality-oriented vehicles will also show up in each Level/Grouping.

With both anti-egotism tools and personal preferences intrinsic to every single Level/Grouping, this structure should provide us with the desired framework for a production of goodness that is authentic.

ClosedEven More Technical Details

Structural Hierarchies are developed by grouping adjacent Levels of THEE’s 7-Level holistic hierarchies. «Holistic» means that Levels in the hierarchy broadly imply or include each other. Most THEE hierarchies including those derived from a spiral transformation are holistic, and therefore allow this re-modelling.

The first «Level» in a Structural Hierarchy is a Grouping of 1 Level i.e. Grouping-1 (G1) contains 7 Groups that are Monads i.e. made up of 1 original Level. The next «Level» will contain all Groups of 2 adjacent Levels i.e. G2 contains 6 Dyads…and so on until we reach G7, the Heptad Grouping where there is just one Group consisting of all 7 original Levels.

As a result, every G-Level contains all the Levels of the originating hierarchy i.e. the original differentiation of an entity into Levels has been replaced by a re-unification applicable at each G-Level.

There are 28 Groups (components) in a Structural Hierarchy. However, definition of this THEE form is far more complex.

The Levels within any Group ('internal Levels') are labelled with a lower case 'g', e.g. g4 refers to the 4thLevel in each of the Tetrads, Pentads, Hexads and the Heptad. (It does not exist in the Monads, Dyads and Triads because these have less than 4 internal Levels.)
