Duration
Each instance of conscious existence. Meditative awareness stretches the duration across more of the epoch.
Epoch
The entire two-beat pattern, a whole-part relation and universal principle of a cosmos continuously becoming-into-being.
Microgenesis
A process theory of experience, where the microgenetic processes of human experience reflect a deeper universal generative principle of the creative cosmos. It describes waves of experience arising from primordial levels and reaching thresholds.
Temporality
Waves of experience arising from more primordial levels, reaching and passing various thresholds.
These terms relate to previously defined concepts:
Action Thresholds
Sensations of bodily disposition or “mood” become subconscious affect-laden drives above a certain threshold. Action thresholds relate to temporality, as temporality involves waves of experience reaching and passing various thresholds.
Sense-making up-hierarchy
The sequence of events is too simplistic to describe the micro- generative process of experience. A fully functioning sensemaking up-hierarchy goes from affect to perception and flow towards actions that satisfy.
Habitas
Involves internal relations.
Habitat
Involves networks of external relations.
