Phase III - Active Database:Expertise
Phase III: Active Data-base: Expertise
In this Phase, active participation is essential for the learning and the revisions of experience. Expertise-building occurs in the active pursuit of information update to replace obsolescence and erase ignorance. Unwillingness to being involved actively to gain an experiential grounding manifests itself as "provocative wilfulness" which is the antithesis to "Befriending Creativity" and involving the body as "doer". Instead of reaching out to make oneself known and to know others, what occurs is a shrinking into oneself, seeking protection and preservation in fear of depletion. (Kosnik, Fuchs) A fully developed Bodysphere, requires physical exertion, engagement, health, involvement, generativity etc., and is needed to activate the "Action-Response" in the doing characterized by "charity" or -love in the act of co-creation. To respond with service to an abundance of life is to transform our self-importance, self-absorption: we break through "narcissism".
Becoming an expert in the field of any endeavour of “being� mother, father, lawyer, friend, neighbour, or politician; being patient, kind, loving, gentle... etc. is in the being not just the knowing. Being an expert entails building on experience by selecting, eliminating....etc., that which is not useful, outdated, incompatible and replacing these inconsistencies with new and more viable alternatives. This is true for conscience as well as for nutrition, health, and job requirements. If there exists an underdeveloped Childhood Mastery Block (Phase I and II), Phase III, will also be faulty, weak, immature and a conglomerate of behaviours will display this powerlessness. The shadow potential turns to false power. False personal or group power is in compitition for what is perceived to be the power of the other, to be coveted for oneself. In essence this is an ironic turnaround from True Power and the True Source of Empowerment.
I Become
I become
All things
Human
Multiple persons
Existing within existence
Layer upon layer
I peel away
Add on
I grow
Or I'm gone
