A concept you should know about: * cosmo-autopoiesis: "a cosmos that sustains itself through nested, self-producing cycles of transformation" For the integral theory buffs: * Spiritual Biology and Cosmo-autopoiesis. A story of fractal subsystems, By Joe Corbett. "Biology and mythic storytelling often move in parallel rhythms: systems transform what they take in, produce something new, and move toward a regenerated state that sustains the whole. The Krebs cycle is one of the central metabolic loops of the cell, turning nutrients into usable energy and essential building blocks. The hero’s journey is a time-honored narrative arc that reframes personal transformation as a shared cultural process. This essay explores the likenesses among the stages, the products, and the purposes of the Krebs cycle and the hero’s journey, and then enlarges the view to consider how each functions as a subsystem within a broader complex adaptive system—one biological, the other cultural. Finally, it proposes a speculative vision in which these patterns point to a universal form, which we might call cosmo-autopoiesis: a cosmos that sustains itself through nested, self-producing cycles of transformation."
