a developmental path in outline form.

Charles Mingus was asked if he was a kid (In an interview on PBS) to which he said, “Yes, I’m a kid. I had no education. Education is age.

What Is Development?How Do We Change And Grow? Condtioning Imitation Language and imagining patterns of stimulation resolving pre and post oedipal conflicts spiritual experiences books waking from a dream IDEAS THAT DON’T FIT Actions that make no senseWe can draw on InnerRESOURCES
for power,
for information about our next step,
as a map
and as a path.
InnerRESOURCES combined with the 8 ideas gives us an aerial overview, provides a way of thinking, information about our next step, a map and a path. And a possible route for developing the power of transformation.
Transformation
Transformation as another way to get older.
Lead into Gold, The Caterpillar and the Butterfly, Water Into Electrical Energy. All examples of Transformation.
Can we participate in our own transformation? Is this another way we can leap to our next stage of being in the world? What power does that give us?
The River Meets The Desert
This story is about a river that meets the desert
When the river approaches the desert
it says to itself
Well if I just continue forward
the way I am going
and go right into that big vast
open desert,
there is no
doubt that it
wont be long
before I'm just a
big mud pile
So . . . . . . . . .
the river decides to
evaporate
and become a cloud.
As a cloud,
it easily
passes over
the desert
brought by the winds
Once it reaches
the other side
It becomes rain
And falls again
onto the ground
where it becomes a river
and proceeds
along the way.
So, husbands and wives
friends
lovers
mothers and children
fathers and their . . . . . sons
Families
If your feeling up against it
Your getting nowhere
Change your state
of mind
Take time out
and
listen to the music
