As a general rule of navigation always gravitate to your level of the power-awareness scale, or you will be screwed. People who are not awake to power and are using more primitive (immoral) techniques to attain power cannot be trusted to act in a civil or humane fashion.
I have correlated various organs and areas of the body with the stages of consciousness from page 633 of “Integral Psychology,” by Ken Wilber with the various types of giving or service and finally with the stages of the evolution of the will and power principle. The sovereign Will spirals around from inner illumination to externalized accomplishment throughout its evolution…growing through the hyperbolic cyclic play of internal yin and external yang processes.
1.Gonads—Presocial autistic (Reactive, fusion)——Dependent
Extraverted will, Fear-based Rage, blind physical force without regard for consequences, desire for violence and catharsis.
2.Adrenals—Symbiotic (Naïve)——Submissive
Introverted will, Passive-aggressive, internalized rage, need for drama and revenge.
3.Gall Bladder—Impulsive (Manipulative)——Servile
Introverted will, Bilious-force, submission with internal resistance, aggression due to helplessness.
4.Spleen—Self Protective (inferiority)——Addictive codependent
Extraverted will, Guilt-force, Manipulative punishment and reward tactics.
5.Pancreas—Conformist (industry)——Conciliatory
Introverted will, Weak-will, resolution to submit to external powers, good little child.
6.Liver—Conscientious-conformist (role confusion)——Bargaining unconsciously
Extraverted will, Righteousness-indignation, appeal to justice at the egoic level.
7.Thymus—Conscientious (identity)——Trading consciously
Introverted will, Law-enforcement, rules to reduce chaos and increase the civilizing principle.
8.Heart—Individualistic (consistency)——Non-competitive truce
Extraverted will, Good-will, friendly attempt at equality, inner/outer violence leaving.
9.Thyroid—Autonomous (differentiated from ego)——Intellectual concourse
Introverted will, Equalitarianism, Intelligent inquiry on the best means for Win-Win.
10.Third Eye—Integrated (authentic)——Creative synthesis
Extraverted will, Partnership of equals, 1st transcendence of the force of dominance and submission.
11.Crown—Transcendent (active genius)—Merger of souls
Introverted will, Soul-Synergy of genius in service of mutual Art.
12.Full Integration—Unitary (Saint, Sage)——Pouring forth of Divine Grace
Extraverted will, Mutual Art in service of the enlightenment of all humanity.
13.Realization—Nondual (Noetic-Self, Avatar)—One Being, no separation
Introverted will, Ultimate empowerment used exclusively for transanthropomorphic wellbeing of all creatures.
Thus we see the lower conscious forms of will are weaker, less empowered, reflecting both dominator (force, aggression) and submissive aggression (manipulation) in an effort to get apparent needs met. As our needs and self-responsibility evolve and our empowerment to meet those needs does also, this is synonymous with the evolution of will itself. The spectrum of the evolution of consciousness, service and will gives great hope for the potential growth of humanity and life on earth. Clarifying the levels allows us to better understand the underlying motivations of ourselves and others.
