Hi Rick,

I would rather put 'character' than 'personality' - I think the latter is more fluid and contains
different MoQ levels; whereas I think the former is focussing in on the static patterns (could be of
both 3 and 4 level), ie the virtues.

How the different levels interact is what I'm thinking about at the moment, in this context, ie how
far a "fourth level person" (a coherent idea?) can function with or without the wider society and be
healthy.

"Phaedrus is fascinated too by the description of the motive of 'duty toward self' which is an
almost exact translation of the Sanskrit word 'dharma', sometimes described as the 'one' of the
Hindus. Can the 'dharma' of the Hindus and the 'virtue' of the Ancient Greeks be identical?" - The
Eudaimonic MoQ says yes. "Lightning hits!"
