kind of wonder if ive been in a biological kegan 4.5 for a while even knowing the fatuousness of the stance damned wetware maybe a better framing is lacking a good lifestyle aesthetic after rejecting the last one

I don't know, I'm not sure you internalized that there was all that much meaning in a single system to begin with.

Hmm I think maybe I used to get by on low-key secret narcissism and maybe I don't get much value from that anymore? And I used to be into Learning, I was super into knowing everything Not sure what happened there

Neither of those are Systems Of Meaning really... Reread things that aren't just Chapman's breakdown of it.https://medium.com/@NataliMorad/how-to-be-an-adult-kegans-theory-of-adult-development-d63f4311b553 …

Hm I think they are "Where does one find motivation" "What is the implicit animating narrative" Possibly this is functional meaning vs abstract?

I'm just saying, if a single blog post by one Buddhist, no matter how insightful, can unearth existential angst, I'm willing to ask if you do in fact have a Stage 4 card. There's a qualitatively difference between "stuck behind the Veil of Paroketh" and "lost in the Abyss."
-
qualitative, damn.

I think Chapman downplays the degree to which Stage 5 would represent someone who is transcendent of ordinary systems of meaning. Most people don't even have "has authored their own meaning, even if it's mostly a hack ripoff, and unmoored themselves from the meanings of society."
-
And I think that this more commonly Strong Meaning Able To Distort The World Around It is what many people WOULD parse as Transcendent, superficially, because they have transcended the concerns of the people around them (which is the absolutely most dominant paradigm of thought).

What actions distinguish a 5 that you aren’t currently performing? Actually anxiety over being 5 might be your only blocker to not being 5

The extra step of seeing much meaning or the possibility of it I think Possibly you're right though Hm
-
Either that or its proof you’re 5
