Three Pre AQAL Quadrants Under Similar Principles
HERE I SHOW 3 similar quadrants whose principles complement each other. Arthur Koestler, originator of the term "Holon" as well as its initial developer also shows in a chapter previous to the one about holons in his book "Janus," the "Jung-(Pauli) Quaternio." Aspects of this quadratic form show interiority and other aspects show exteriority. Also, Indestructible energy may correspond to something that cannot be divided, thus being similar to what the "Individual" dimension in AQAL quadrants is about. Its opposite is energy in space-time, thus energy as divided or as collective in expression.
Then I show the "Tawa Chakana" which is close to chakana quadratic forms near Tiahuanaco, near Lake Titicaca. Here the andean cultures belief in complementary opposites seem to be represented generating a quadratic form that may have 4 embedded polarity-generated dimensions, is more complex (showing three levels in four sides, square chakana diagonals that meet with a circle's diameter, etc). Finally, professor Archie J. Bahm's diagrams (based on a complementary polar analysis) clearly have principles similar to AQAL's Integral Theory. E.F. Schumacker's "Four Fields of Knowledge" are not depicted here but also demoinstrate the same principles of how reality can be seen7understood under a dialectical model that uses complementary poles. All of these ideas developed before Ken Wilber's "Sex, Ecology, Spirituality" magnus opus and seem to represent a universal dialectical framework that even cuts across levels of cultural development.
