An archetypal source-domain is a transpersonal generative field capable of becoming locally personified in many distinct forms.

Process philosophy is a school of thought that views change, activity, and becoming as the fundamental ingredients of reality. It rejects the traditional view that the world is made of static, unchanging substances, arguing instead that everything – from physical matter to human experience – consists of continuous relational events Read more

In biology, a colony is a group of individual organisms of the same species living closely together, often connected physically or working cooperatively. These biological associations represent a key evolutionary step from single-celled life toward complex multicellular organisms.

Psychological fragmentation, in the specific theoretical usage proposed The Human Multiplicity Theory, refers to a condition in which differentiated psychological domains lack sufficient communication, mutual recognition or cooperative organisation to participate reliably in a coherent shared life.

Schema-mask friction: The psychological or regulatory cost arising when simultaneously relevant schemas or mask policies prescribe incompatible interpretations, access conditions or responses.

Internal schema stigma: a generalised negative evaluation imposed upon a wider schema domain because of an output generated by one component associated with it.
