Spirituality in the Taxonomy
L7 Phenomenon
Level of the Root Hierarchy. Each of these Levels emanates a Primary Hierarchy …

… and the 7th Level of each Primary Hierarchy is self-evidently spiritual in nature. (It is not uncommon to regard as intrinsically spiritual also.) Based on postings in the Architecture Room, here is the current position for all Domains.
Primary Hierarchy | Level-7 |
---|---|
RL7 ↔ PH7: Willingness | Trust |
RL6 ↔ PH6: Purpose | Ultimate value |
RL5 ↔ PH5: Communication | Openness |
RL4 ↔ PH4: Experience | Imagination |
RL3 ↔ PH3: Change | Transformation |
RL2 ↔ PH2: Inquiry | Wonder |
RL1 ↔ PH1: Action | Spontaneity |
Any 7th Level of a Primary Hierarchy has the potential to influence all lower Levels, although only the 6th & 4th Levels are directly influenced: see Trees for more detail. In practice, we can activate these two powerful Levels (L6, L4) without giving much attention to Level-7.
Many other aspects of human identity and social activity derive from the numerous 7 Level structures deriving from each Primary Hierarchy. The influence of the spiritual 7th Level is further attenuated in these structures. This attenuation is manageable, but only through activation of the Taxonomy's Root Complex.
Root Complex Phenomenon
Frameworks developed within this Satellite. Quite apart from its presence as a ( ), it plays a role in the where it generates a Divine Oneness which then permeates all other . The universal truths, , that can be combined to produce goodness, are usually perceived as spiritual. This is because they seem to capture goodness and because they serve as vehicles for ultimate values that definitely are spiritual (as explained above).

If this model is correct, work to perceive and explain spiritual realities requires names ( ) and images ( ).
. The necessary for a particular society does not just happen: responsible, dedicated work is required. Work depends on making sense of reality for oneself and others i.e. constructing reality by communicating (including thinking). Such specification/construction produces different results according to the way language is used. 7 Arenas of within society can be identified by applying athis diagram, the to ethical choice and derive from spiritual forces associated with .
