[Life-Dance Log: an I. S. experiment]
This Blog is part of my experiment in INTEGRAL SCIENCE, INDIVIDUAL-PERSONAL POLITICS, and the sharing of LIVING FRIENDSHIP and Healthy Information. The Idea is to introduce myself and my Ideas and projects and invite others to join me personally in the experiment of creating HEALTHY CULTURE Individually and collectively. The purpose is also to exemplify and share the non-factional Identity Politics of INDIVIDUAL-PERSONHOOD and the 5 roles and Venues of a person’s life that comprise this kind of Personhood. These roles or aspects of Individual-Personhood (I some times use "Personhood" for short) are FAMILY MEMBER, NEIGHBOR, CITIZEN (of the World), SOUL (in a mostly "psychological" sense), and INDIVIDUAL. Most of my blog entries will be in one or another of these categories or aspects of Individual-Personhood (each of which will be explained more fully later). Most importantly, some entries, which I'll call LIFE-DANCE entries will attempt to give a sense of how I am doing in the Living Dance of coming-together in All of these areas of my life as a healing Individual-Person. A final category is that of EXPERIMENT, in which I will try to report on the progress of this Blog experiment itself. I ask that those who share this blog with me adopt a similar practice, as a way of coming to a sense of themselves as whole Individual-Persons transcending without necessarily disowning, any factional identities they may have. I will demonstrate in my initial postings what this looks like. The companion log to this, integralscience.motime.com, will serve as a kind of glossary for this log and explain more of the world view behind it all. That Blog is also meant to stand on it's own as an account of the present Theory and practice of Integral Science as an evolving enterprise. For now I invite and welcome you in the spirit of Mutuality and Good Will, into this Life-Dance.

Experiment Post (meta-post)

I am noticing that , as I continue these entries, I find myself having to talk about other people in  the various  venus of my Life-Dance.  A relatively new developement is that  these blogs are listed on the website of the intentional community where I live, and so  its probable that some people l live with will see the entries and so see whatever I may have written about them or those they know.  I want to be as responcible as I can in such a situation and I want to clarify what I mean by that.

My sense of responcibily in this or any situation really , is never going to take the form of factional identity polics and onesided, dissociated loyalty to any factional group as such. My loyalty is to Individual-Persons as such (including non-human beings), to Life, to Living Truth, and to healing and Healthy Culture in general. I cannot see how, when I am True to these things, I can fail to be true in the deepest sense to everything else.

In the case of the previous post about my neighborhood of Twin Oaks, I do not see my neighborhood in a private (or even public) sense as primeraly seperated from rest of the world but rather in hopefully responcible relationship with it. I see it as an experiment, (not unlike that of "Democratic Government" itself) in establishing a good way of life.  It is important--for the sake of learning, and for the sake of those wanting to make similar experiments or to help with this one, and also for the sake of the experiment, the experimenters themselves, to be as Truthful as possible about the results, so far, of what has been undertaken.  This seems obvious to me. 


What seems a little problematic is not that I have included others in these entries but the way that  the way I have included them. I dont think  I want to mention them by  name  (even just by first name as I have sometimes done) unless I have explicite premission to.  More importantly I don't want to refer to others by gender any  more since think this will help me and the reader to think of them more as Individual-Persons. I can't commit to any second person non-gendered substitures yet, I want to try out different ways of doing this and see how it goes.
