About the Author

1 Patterns of Development and Social Order

There is an entire world of a living intelligent complexity everywhere and in all details, just ready to accept you if you are developed enough to reach it, yet people seek to develop superficially and irrelevantly instead, depending on the fashion and social believes in place wherever they live. Because only decades ago, being tall and strong was very desirable, along with winning in fistfights and holding your liquor. This was what people sought the most in life then, and consequently, this was what people developed the most, their muscles, stature, and addictions, in a very familiar developmental pattern. Knowingly or not, people grew taller, and highly athletic. You may still see these people today, looking surprising now at their old age, with oversized skeletons and floppy skin, recalling those old grandiose times.

While even further in the past, throughout famines and recessions, it was more appealing to look fat and healthy, just to show to this world how wonderful you were. And this was exactly what people developed the most in themselves back then, fat. Currently, people seek social supremacy and material achievements the most, developing their own social skills accordingly, while morphing and reshaping their faces and bodily parts in order to look younger and enhanced in every way, since this makes everybody more attractive and more accepted today. Therefore, this is how people develop, mostly physically, socially, and consensually, at all costs, and through all efforts. Yet it is very common to develop in this apparently enhanced manner today, just the way being strong, drunk, and fat used to be the high norms of the past.

But can enhanced bodily appearance and enhanced social status be as irrelevant today as all developmental patterns from the past? Are you actually tricked into investing your lifetime effort in specific developmental patterns decided for you from above by those controlling society? And is it done this manner to keep you distracted, diverted, and astray throughout life? Because this is relevant to know, since once you start developing inadequately at the beginning of your life, you cannot change afterwards, and so you go down from there, just the way plants growing crooked in the beginning are doomed to remain bent and crooked for life.

Throughout this book, we study the human development in all its patterns, how and why it takes place, at what level, through what patterns, and with what consequences, in order for you to decide and control your own developmental pattern throughout life, for you, for your loved ones, and for the entire world.

How important is your development throughout life? How important is the developmental pattern that you or others choose and have to follow? Why do society, science, and education ignore development and developmental patterns entirely, corrupting and altering them from birth, through all its direct and implicit consensual aspects? Because throughout social servitude, people end up harming those around in an organized manner yet always legitimate, as they are harmed by those around just as well, while there is not much development being done in the meanwhile. Or the development that still takes place is of a consensual nature, the kind of development meant to help you while you harm others, alongside others, in an organized manner. And this is the current human society.

Consequently, people develop themselves socially and consensually today as much as they desire, in the detriment of the rest of their knowledge and abilities, higher and lower. And this is why, currently, money, servitude, ignorance, unlimited pleasure, material life, vices, and trivial social values are desired the most, as they remain desirable for life, for you and for your children alike. With what consequences? What about the rest of your values and abilities?

You certainly see consequences everywhere today, at all levels and in all domains, since this is the current developmental pattern. Yet if you had your own way, if you were given the choice to decide and determine your own development and developmental pattern throughout life, would you really follow the crowd to nowhere while developing and decaying in an organized manner, or you chose to develop in a more harmonious, personalized, meaningful, and fulfilling manner? And since your children tend to follow your own developmental pattern just as well, which one should it be?

Yet the main topic of this book is not exactly challenging your own choice of development throughout life or identifying who controls and decides your entire developmental pattern, but it is to help you manage what you already have, while helping you find a ‘better’ developmental pattern than the one that you already have, if this is even possible. At the same time, what you already have is very hard to change, and this makes this entire topic tedious to implement in real life.

Do you find society fair, along with all its rules and authorities? If you do, and if everything goes fine throughout life, this means that you are developed at the exact level of society, along with everyone else. But if you find yourself struggling continuously throughout life, then you might be underdeveloped, or you might be in the wrong developmental track altogether. Yet if you find everyone around underdeveloped, along with their tight rules, predictable behavior, and superficial expectations, then you might be overdeveloped compared to society, or you might expect more from yourself, from those around, from society, and from life in general. The problem is not exactly why you are underdeveloped or overdeveloped throughout life, but why society remains incapable to reach you in order to offer you the exact type of development that you need, according to your intelligent human nature, meaning, and fulfillment. Just because this is supposed to be a human world. And if you happen to find everybody having the same developmental problems, then you might want to reconsider society altogether. While what we are more interested throughout this book is the human development itself within society. More importantly, we are interested in the kind of development that society offers, the kind of development that you seek, need, and deserve throughout life, and the manner in which it takes place. Because only when you manage to know all details regarding your own development, you are capable to conduct it in any manner.

Why can you not develop accordingly throughout life? Development itself is not random, continuous, or infinite, but development in general comes in only a few discrete patterns, it manifests under specific circumstances, and more importantly, it takes place along specific pathways throughout life, favorable and unfavorable, pathways that you have to embark from a very young age, otherwise you miss your chance, and you end up stagnating or decaying altogether. Which is very common.

For example, some people embark specific developmental patterns taking them from a very young age to their business or teaching careers, while others embark different developmental patterns, taking them through terrible employment and unfortunate marriages, or through severe addictions and bad health. And this is not random at all, since people’s development is always related to their meaning and fulfilment starting from a very young age, when they first embark their developmental tracks, and this is what you have to consider the most. You are the maker of your own failures and achievements in life since these are never random, always depending on how you start developing at a very young age. Because if you start crooked then, there is not much that you can do later on.

I refer to patterns of development as being ‘favorable’ and ‘unfavorable’ only as a reference, or only for you to distinguish between what you seek and what you try to avoid in your development. Because all developmental patterns are good and bad in general, including those related to humans, societies, civilizations, or to any living being and intelligence in general, all being necessary as they are for societies and life in general, regardless of how you or society may label them. There are no ‘good’ or ‘bad’ developmental patterns within Life, there are no ‘good’ or ‘bad’ behaviors, but only specialized meanings in life, along with the necessary developmental tracks manifesting them all. However, there are always failures, mistakes, achievements, stagnation, decay, or successful development while you are embarked within these developmental tracks. Therefore, among all your values in life assigned or achieved, your development is the most important, simply because your development determines them all. It is your development that you must favor the most, and since your development always comes in distinct patterns, then you must be even more careful with the one you embark.

And since you always embark your developmental tracks at a very young age, right after you gain your conscious awareness and conceptual language, then this becomes you. Your parents and all those around will certainly influence you to embark any developmental pattern then, since you are certainly too young to choose. Your higher self always gets involved at this stage, yet they all have to know exactly what they are doing, otherwise, you end up following the path that everyone takes, to become what everybody is today. So you may just choose anything that you want from the media and entertainment, since everything is there.

There are two books in this series studying the human development. The Human Development studies the development of humans, humanity, life, and intelligences in general, while this book, Patterns of Development, studies developmental patterns with an emphasis on your own development throughout life and throughout this world. And this is the case because development and developmental patterns are similar and correspondent to all humans and living beings, to all societies and civilizations, to all forms of life, and to all intelligences, within all realities, and even to the One itself. These apply to Life and Intelligence, since everything is alive and intelligent in this world, and therefore everything develops in similar manners throughout similar patterns at all levels.

How important is development in life? Highly. If you fail to comprehend, identify, determine, and control your development throughout life, along with the specific developmental pattern that you favor and expect the most in life,
