     We  find  our lives meaningful  and  satisfying  when
there is integrity in the patterns of our lives  together;
not  just  in us individually in isolation.  Coherence and
cooperation must extend beyond us; out into and throughout
our  communities  ---   for  us  to  enjoy lives which are
meaningful  and  satisfying.  We cannot "do-it"  alone  as
isolated   individuals.    We   need   others'    support,
confirmations,  and cooperation to "find",  "discern"  and
"create" both meaning and satisfaction together. We cannot
be  confident  with  any  level  healthy  of certainty and
coherence ---  when we are separated and/or alienated from
each other in systemic ways.    This  is  why  separation,
dishonesty,  deception,   arrogance,   self-righteousness,
alienation  and  estrangement are central in all realistic
descriptions of the nature of our evil-relationships.     
                                                          
     The  above  comments pertain to a wide range  of  the
diverse aspects of our lives --- not to just one or a very
few aspects of our lives together.   What are the kinds of
aspects of  our  lives  together  --- to  which  the above
comments pertain?    Consider the following suggestions to
discern for yourself which the aspects might be:

     2.  Self, other, family, school, work-place, etc.    
     3.  Beliefs, doctrines, rituals, myths, religions.   
     4.  Descriptions of our experiences/observations.

     7.  Communication networks of all kinds.             
     8.  Formal and informal languages, sign & pointers.  
     9.  How we respond to errors, mistakes & failures.   
    10.  How we deal with incoherence/conflicts among us. 
    11.  How we deal with imperfections and impurities.   
    12.  How we deal with dishonesty, arrogance & evil.   
    13.  How we deal with regrets, guilt, shame & blame.
