Mystics? Computer geeks? Terrorists?
Wonder if embodiment, process, pattern, and meaning are the first four of more, and what the next step might be. We have developed as things, then life, cognition, and meaning. What is the direction of this progression? The fact has been that emergence is surprise, its appearance is not predictable from the past. We can only see it from the vantage of the furthest development so far. Teilhard sees a development toward an Omega point, a coming together in one. That may be what will happen. Was reflection predictable from cognition? Maybe. Double reflection, reflecting on our reflection might be, and then again is sometimes exhibited. Who are ahead of us, exemplars who might exhibit a way? Mystics? Computer geeks? Popes? Philosophers? Terrorists?
