Human Development
Superconscious learning
Description:
Characteristic of a complex, self-reflective consciousness mirrored both in surface and in multilevel, super-consciousness, this is the fourth mode of learning posited by Jantsch and Waddington in their ontogenetic model of human consciousness. It is equivalent to transpersonal consciousness, commencing in an awareness of evolution beyond history and culminating in the death of mankind consciousness leading to integral awareness of evolution. Experientially accessible, present in later stages of social organization through morality (learning of inner constraints) and archetypes, it is central to noogenesis and characterized by superconscious self-regulation of cultural and mankind processes. Changes forecast are very long range.
Context:
One of four learning processes distinguished (Lazslo, 1972) by the type of consciousness brought into play.<
