Bonnitta Roy is an author and a teacher. Her work focuses on breaking away from limiting patterns of thought. She is the founder of Alderlore Insight Centre, a non-profit educational organisation focusing on secondary education and insight training for post-formal thinkers. She is Professor in Residence for the MA in Consciousness Studies and Transpersonal Psychology at the Graduate Institute, and an Associate Editor of Integral Review. Bonnitta is among a brilliant cast of metamodern thinkers. In this regard, her work considers how the sense of crisis many of us feel has as much to do with how we perceive the world as with what goes on within it. We are living through a period of disruptive change and Bonnitta sees these times as an invitation to grapple with the limitations of our inherited toolbox of linear and causal ways of thinking. In this episode we reflect on the limitations of human consciousness and discuss the potential for good that stems from reimagining the way we think.

In this episode, I am joined by both Matt Segall and Bonnitta Roy to discuss process ontology and its connections to UTOK and Transcendent Naturalism. Matt is a philosopher who joined me and John on Transcendent Naturalism to discuss his take on Whitehead and Schelling. He recently published, Crossing the Threshold: Etheric Imagination in the Post-Kantian Process Philosophy of Schelling and Whitehead, which both Bonnie and I read and wanted to discuss with him. In addition, Matt wanted to share some of his reflections about Whitehead's conception of God that he had after listening to Episode 75. This conversation shows that there is much overlap between UTOK and process ontology, and that there is much deep ground to explore. ℹ️  - - -  Find out more about Bonnita Roy - - - ℹ️  Substack: https://substack.com/@bonnittaroy  Twitter: https://twitter.com/bonnittaroy  ℹ️ - - - Find out more about Matt Segall - - - ℹ️  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@UCtagZg14RFF2pWZcUSt28rA  Homepage: https://footnotes2plato.com/about-me/  Book - Crossing the Threshhold: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1947544489?&linkCode=sl1&tag=thoonyou-20&linkId=07bc32dae82b6baa9300ecc723d7deff&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl   ℹ️ - - - Find out more about Gregg Henriques - - -  ℹ️  Psychology Today: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/contributors/gregg-henriques-phd  Medium: https://gregghenriques.medium.com/  Twitter: https://twitter.com/henriqgx

Our discussion centers around the intricacies of internal and external relations, their various types, meanings, and the concept of asymmetry within these relations. Bonnitta Roy provides an in-depth analysis, connecting these ideas to broader metaphysical and philosophical contexts. Gregg Henriques, contributes his insights by relating these philosophical concepts to the UTOK framework, particularly focusing on behavior as an epistemic mapper.

Bonnitta Roy and I explore the meaning of complexification and the evolutionary narrative. After some introductory context on Bonnie's prior engagement in the "scene" of integrative metatheory, we find our way to the topic of teleology (i.e., the apparent goal-directedness of nature). From there Bonnie outlines some of the pivotal mutations in the evolutionary narrative that have increased organism's capacity for abstraction. We discuss whether the directionality of these processes is captured in models of hierarchical complexity, or if other sorts of maps are needed to appreciate the evolution of mind. 0:00 Introduction 1:37 Bonnie's Background in Integrative Metatheory 12:30 On Integral vs. Metamodern: Problems with Stage Theories 17:53 On (Apparent) Teleology 21:00 The Story of Pivotal Mutations Up the Evolutionary Stack 31:22 Teleology* towards Increasing Causal Power 41:09 Getting Beyond Thoughts: Pure Abstractions vs. Categorical Abstractions 45:30 Information and Pure Abstractions: Direct Perception of the Causal Manifold 49:55 Is Increasing Hierarchical Complexity Getting Closer to the Causal Manifold? 1:03:27 Complexification as Recursively Finding New Vantage Points 1:12:38 Increasing Degrees of Freedom without Increasing Complexity? 1:15:22 Intimations and Afterthoughts: Directions for Further Discussion

As an educator, Bonnitta Roy is focused on what she defines as Post Formal Actors: people who have strong intuition towards post formal thinking  without necessarily being sophisticated thinkers (yet) and who see formal rules as optional. According to Bonnitta this phenomenon occurs in different settings, for example  students who start to see their teachers don't have educational authority.  Without proper pedagogical support or guidance to become more sophisticated thinkers, however, post formal actors can be seen only as "deviants" rather than a resource. On the other hand, because of their skills, post formal actors can give a new perspective and a new way to see and do things, embracing the challenges we  face. They can, as Bonnitta says "hedge against social collapse".    Remember that you can always find transcripts and key highlights of the episode on our website: https://boundaryless.io/podcast/bonnitta-roy/   Key highlights from the conversation: Post formal actors (PFA): how this definition was born; The mismatch between skills we learn today in school and what we really need in life; PFA as  a positive force for the world and for organisations Tokenization of value and what it means for organizing  The importance of the stability in a  system Ontological design and modernity as "defuturing"   To find out more about Bonnitta Roy's work:

When we say "human nature," do we mean something different from "nature," or not? Is there a gap between "us" and everything else?

In the second episode of this Integral Stage reboot of Point/Counterpoint, Bonnitta Roy challenges Layman Pascal again to a debate, this time on the nature and existence of free will. Inspired by Rick Repetti's writings on free will, they take up the philosophical question of determinism vs. indeterminism, and consider what possibilities might exist beyond that impasse. Bonnitta and Layman fail pretty badly to have an actual ("side-taking") debate, but they do have a great discussion on free will in light of complexity science; Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, and Reich; contemplative experience; integrative metaphysics; magickal practice, and more.

On this very special Doomer Optimism interlude, we drop in on our intrepid hosts, Ashley Colby and Jason Snyder, as they mix it up with Michael Garfield and the folks at Future Fossils. It was such a tremendous conversation that we figured we should crosslist on both podcasts. So, enjoy, and be sure to subscribe to Future Fossils! Here are the show notes from Future Fossils: Be forewarned: This latest episode is some extremely heady stuff. But thankfully, it's also full of heart and soul... Back in February, Jonathan Rowson posted two clips from his latest in-progress writing to Twitter, where it succeeded in baiting a bunch of the folks with whom I regularly interact as members of the so-called "Liminal Web" into reflecting on the value of partitioning a global boil of loosely-associated "sensemakers," "meta-theorists," and "systems poets" into well-meaning but ultimately dubious cultural taxonomies. I had plenty to say about this from my awkwardly consistent stance of being both enthusiastic and skeptical about apparently everything. But so did numerous other brilliant and inspiring people, including Bonnitta Roy, Stephanie Lepp, Ashley Colby, and Jason Snyder – all of whom I've wanted on the show for a while (with the exception of Stephanie, with whom I had a great chat back on episode 154). So I took it upon myself to press for an on-the-record group discussion about the virtue and folly of putting labels on sociocultural processes and networks that are defined by their liminality: Is this ultimately a good thing, or does it just kill the magic in a foolish servility to economic pressures and the desire to be recognized as A Movement? When we finally met at the end of March for our call, the conversation turned to issues with more urgency and gravitas — namely: Is it even helpful to spend all of our time talking about crises and metacrises when there is so much work to be done? What transpired was easily one of the more profound and inspired conversations I've ever had the good fortune to host on this show, although it was also more beset with insane and infuriating technical problems that getting it ready for release took over thirty hours of excruciating editing. I am so immensely glad I am finally done and can get on with my damn life! But also that I get to share this with you and hear what the rest of our scene(s) have to contribute to this discourse. (Some of the people I'd especially love to hear from include folks we mentioned in this episode and/or were part of the original Twitter discussion, including John Vervaeke, Jeremy Johnson, Daniel Schmachtenberger, Kyle Kowalski, Jim Rutt, John Ash, and Joe Lightfoot, as well as people implied or indicted by Jonathan's prompts, including Nora Bateson and everyone involved with DAOs, GameB, cosmo-localism, meta-modernism, and The Dark Renaissance.

In order to foster resilience and ingenuity in these times we need to replace our obsession with decline and collapse with a focus on transformation and potential. In this conversation with meta-cognitive teacher and author Bonnitta Roy we explore the impact of our subjectivity on the personal and collective levels, moving beyond the dominant models of change, shifting from complex adaptive systems thinking to complex potential states, types of conflict, the core-communal and cosmopolitan self, and the potential in the decline of the West. Bonnitta Roy teaches insight practices for individuals who are developing meta-cognitive skills, and hosts collective insight retreats for groups interested in breaking away from limiting patterns of thought. She teaches a masters course in consciousness studies and transpersonal psychology at the Graduate Institute. Her teaching highlights the embodied, affective and perceptual aspects of the core self, and the non-egoic potentials from which subtle sensing, intuition and insight emerge. Bonnitta is the author of the popular Medium publication Our Future at Work.

Joe Edelman is a philosopher, social scientist, designer, and founder of Human Systems, a global community for those redesigning institutions and social spaces so as to better support meaningful lives and human values. In this conversation we discuss why designing systems in alignment with human values is the way forward for social transformation, the difference between advancing values and practicing values, the anti-rivalrous nature of values, how to name your values with the same specificity that you name your goals, why the breakdown of systems is a wonderful opportunity for redesign, the relationship between meaningfulness and values, and what this all has to do with the possibility of social collapse.

Today on the show I'm speaking with Bonnitta Roy about her presentation 'Six Ways to Go Meta'. We cover such topics as what it mean to ‘go meta’, why the anthropocene is driving humans to discover new ways of ‘going meta’, how deconstructing our experience through meditation creates a clean palette to experiment with new ways of going meta, how previous guests like Adam Robbert, Jordan Greenhall, Nora Bateson, and Rob Burbea fit into Bonnitta’s meta-meta-model, and why it’s vital that we create new educational forms that help create and discover new human minds.

And what does all this tell us about the vision for a 'trustless' future coming out of the Blockchain world? And why is it that sometimes highly trustworthy people are also the most unpredictable?

In this first in a set of three conversations, Bonnitta Roy and I talk about a Source Code Analysis of the concept of Power. We explore how to speak and think about power in a way that releases complexity, cuts through confusion, and enables useful conversations. The hallmark of this approach is a commitment to unpacking hidden assumptions in order to identify a conceptualization (Bonnitta calls this a 'conceptual prime') that avoids the confusions and traps that much of our current culture is trapped in. Leveraging this approach in my own life has led to a significant upgrade to the quality of my communication, and I'm glad to share it with you. This is part one of a three-part series. Coming in the next week Bonnitta and I will be applying the same process to the ideas of 'Trust' and 'Collective Action'.

Please visit www.qigongmasters.com to enjoy the video interviews with our Masters of the Month. Bonnitta Roy is an award-winning scholar of integral process philosophy. She served the President of the National Qigong Association. Now she is an associate editor of the internationally acclaimed Integral Review Journal. Her rural home, called "Alderlore", is surrounded by old growth forest in the hillsides of the Berkshire Mountains in Northwest Connecticut. Alderlore is also a retreat center that offers two educational programs. The first program is "Qigong with Horses." It includes workshops where the horses teach people about energy, body language, emotional balance and how to engage the natural world on a deeper level. The second program focuses on "insight training" - helping people to tap into the transformational power of the mind in its natural state. Insight training workshops activate intuitive awareness by cultivating the ability to perceive the world directly, and the capacity to experience equanimity. When mind is in its natural state, we can discover what is possible that has never been possible before.
