The challenge for most developmental programs that seek to upskill or create applied solutions is that none of them begin in you, from you, beyond language.
They start with stories about you — interpretations that arrive after the moment has passed.
The Mi ≈ iMind framework begins where experience begins: in the present, before language forms.
It uses a zero-latency feedback loop that draws directly on the Inner Critic’s first signals of tension or error.
These signals are not judged; they are processed as information in real time.
This allows new understanding to appear at the same speed as experience itself —
turning reaction into awareness, and awareness into adaptive intelligence.
Identify where your Inner Critic creates doubt, worry, anxiety, or fear — each a symptom of misperceived error.
Using Simple Argument Structure Analysis, these reactions are unpacked as information, not threats.
The immediate benefit is relief from the pain of misunderstanding.
As the Inner Critic learns to process rather than punish, its energy transforms — like turning ethanol from waste into fuel.
The same structure that once drained your attention now powers understanding.
What once felt like error becomes motion: fuel for insight, adaptability, and calm.
In Brandom’s inferential universe, meaning arises through the social traffic of reasons—our dialogues are the scaffolds by which we make implicit commitments explicit. *Mi-iMind* begins where that scaffolding bends back on itself: when the *I from We*—the speaker produced by language—becomes visible as an object of mind. At that threshold, dialogue ripens into dialectic. The question is no longer *why do I believe this?* but *how does this belief appear now?* In that turn, understanding becomes an emergent event rather than a possession. The *Me* mind opens to its own operation, and the will to know becomes the medium through which new knowledge enters the present.
In practice this shift begins with the *Inner Critic*—the habitual voice that still plays by the rules of the *I from We*. It speaks in borrowed norms, measuring worth through comparison. When we learn to witness that voice without taking its grammar as truth, the dialogue of self-judgment becomes a dialectic of understanding. Each criticism reveals not guilt but structure, a trace of how the *Me* mind once stabilized belonging through defense. As these traces are seen, they dissolve, leaving a clear medium for knowledge to move through. This is the work of *Mi-iMind*: turning inherited dialogue into living dialectic, where understanding arises naturally from the willingness to know now.
Making it explicit in the embodied Me is therefore a practice of clarity without blame. It converts self-reflection into real-time reasoning, grounding transformation in the simple act of willingness to know now. The result is a new form of literacy—an emergent language of self-understanding that can cooperate coherently with AI, Agile teams, and other process-based systems of thought.
If the following statement is true then everything our parents sincerely believed and told us about our self in a Me is flawed:
Events don’t align around personal meaning; they express the non-linear dynamics of systems. Reasons exist, but they are distributed, not teleological.
To say “everything happens for a reason” in a complexity frame becomes tautological: yes, everything has causes, but those causes are not about you or I in the embodied Me mind. Ask yourself what are the upstream and downstream consequences for what I think I can know in Me if this is true.
Superior cognitive processing is not superiority over others. It is the capacity to let data become knowledge and knowledge become understanding without distortion from belief or belonging. The truth is indifferent, but understanding is not—it adapts.
When self-understanding is bound by natural-language stories—by linear plots of purpose and progress within anthropic time-forward—the horizon of perception contracts. The mind becomes a narrator in search of closure, not an instrument of discovery. In that narrowing, infinity is domesticated; the field of vision shrinks to what can be told.
In Mi ≈ iMind we treat information as energy—each pulse of awareness is a wave moving through the embodied Me-field in real time. A sinusoid ecology in a time forward ontology.
- The ontology of time-forward is therefore described in wavelengths, not moments.
- Desire is the energetic curvature of those waves: when read clearly, it is a sine-wave of intention; when confused, it becomes the old sin—the telos bound, subject object distortion of that same energy expressed within the limits of natural language.
- Reason acts as the tuning mechanism, bringing phase coherence between energy (feeling) and information (meaning).
Key Outcomes
- Reduce anxiety by reclassifying it as signal
- Shorten time to structural insight
- Upskill the Inner Critic into a My iWitness
- Free yourself from the effort of forgiveness—once error is seen structurally, there is nothing to forgive
- Calibrate participation using the Judgment Hinge
- Restore clarity to epistemic integrity in complex environments
"In one embodied time forward human lifetime, a capable human Me-mind, never steps into the same evanescent iState twice. If you are able to adapt now with new understanding, you will not go to Sea with a land compass, when you knew why it cannot work at Sea, would you? ".
If our errors are signposts then all the signs are saying There is no way out of here! because the I from We in Me, is not free to Be, from Me. If human love is true it will survive the end of all the hoi polloi iStates in Me. Self conception derived using Hoi Polloi iStates in a downward looking Holon is bound before we say I in Me and cannot therefore be free to be for Me in my iNow. My mine is salted in my I.
Unless we can look at the endless, lifelong suffering within our own mind, without the need to look away and act positively in the present, we cannot use self authored, adaptive understanding, which is the heart of these solutions for ever better processing of emergent human knowledge in one time forward lifetime.
These solutions use empty cornerstones to enable the creation of empty paving from the inside out, a willing knower during envisioning and witnessing our emotional attachments to errors and following the knowledge.
Understanding and acknowledging the systemic errors that bind our imagination in the shallows created by a social Holon highlights the problem that disqualifies the I from We in Me as a change agent capable of working with emergent human knowledge in a present supported by AI.AI exposes the self stunted change agency available in human management development when Psychoanalytic persona bound identity is used, as a Sheppard in Me of what can be known now.
These are scientifically obvious and incomplete bindings caused by using linear metrics to derive a human self conception in an embodied dynamic ontology. These constraints will cause lifelong emotional suffering by binding fight, flight and freeze responses to misconception of self and thence misconception of terror, fear and shame.
Because we imagine a consistency bound to human exceptionalism articulated in a natural language like English as a necessary abstracted filter for emergent knowledge flows we surround ourselves with chimera's of our own making and call it a mystery. Personalizing knowledge flow restricts our understanding of the knowledge and understanding available to us in the present and the constraining bindings hurt like having pronoun I size that will always be too small for Me.
Cogent understanding requires congruent structures that can manage emergent knowledge in time forward, in a mind that does not know what it does not know, while also having lived experiences of the knowable unnameable, our circumstances are complex our ancestors could not have understood like we can now..
Even a first class mind needs to understand the Heart Sutra merely intellectually to willingly leverage the recollective reasoning capacity of the EmptiSelf as an antifragile host in the present using positive, present participation hinged by wise judgement. The embodied perception of a human mind articulated using natural language is bound by the I from We in a self limited, wilfully ignorant consistency using U/Non-U sets, in a downward looking Holon..
These solutions are applied using simple lived experience in the present as the essential information source. They are not easy to understand intuitively and the use of a flattened hierarchy to manage feelings may be the most obvious challenge for some. What is not obvious is that meaning is derived using value of a function structures that eschew the personal filter that human exceptionalism imputes in tribal social structures where self conceptions are derived from I am statements. The initial challenge is to understand that there is nothing to be over against, when processing emergent knowledge in one time forward lifetime. Because these solutions use complexity science to produce process management frameworks it is best when possible to use simple ground up feedback loops. To achieve this there are structural reasons why positive patterns can be managed using a simple 3 set choice: More of This or Less of This or Keep doing This in conjunction with clear core willing to know now iStates.
The technicalities of this framework for processing emergent human knowledge in the present, is complex, chaotic and complicated however the application is simple using ground up feedback in clear core willing to know now iStates and it is important to know that wilful ignorance cannot survive superior understanding, once you understand why and how the world is not flat that's it there is no going back to flat earth theories of Me now.
The maths and physics here are congruent with the Cynefin framework it is the naming convention in natural language that is being identified as absent the capacity to maintain a consistent structure in a dynamic time forward cohesion..
New age and developmental Psychoanalytic bound Psychology including Institutionalized Original Psychosynthesis has imputed and commodified self conception using Behaviourist post hoc fallacies, where feelings are treated as reasons and far more invidious than housing becoming the market for homes, the I in the psychological developmental market is masquerading as a change agent, using Act as If, bound to a rightly fearful, self limited imagination.
Using Psychoanalytic bound Behaviourist solutions that originated in therapeutic environments for developmental work with healthy capable minds is absurd when it refuses to be debunked by emergent knowledge. Universities have bridged the gap between caring and marketing by issuing imprimatur in the form of degrees that are patently debunked by modern mathematics and logic. Natural language bound tribal self conceptions derived from the I from We are structurally unable to survive emergent knowledge, truth as proof is indifferent to our naturally recurring human unwillingness to know now, even if we speak English. For a capable embodied human mind to follow the knowledge to adaptively understand that judgement now, in one time forward lifetime, is the mother and father of my iNow, not some they then in a story of now, is a milestone when beginning to release the will to know now. The will to know now depends upon how we open the present, even in a capable mind. The I in Me from We or Them is not free to be for Me in iNow.
Moving from using sure to fail risk inherent in teleologically bound, linear, naturally brittle, Subject / Object goals as purposes, to process purposes, removes the worry and stress of waiting to fail and provides a new, traceable, functional, pragmatic present participation, using a localized ever better metric, where the goal and the path are one in iNow, using process management. iNow as a cogently conceived expression of a an embodied lived experience of a grand jeté from within, in the present, a new coherence that appears in relationship with not I first with the number e in the cogent emergent present of a capable embodied human mind living one time forward lifetime. The nature of this conscious awareness, which is absent the I from We and more than a grand jeté in dancem, which we may say is not going forward or back it is here not going in any of the 10 directions, revealing a glimmer of the manifold dimensions beyond the I from We in me.
Using iNow, meaning is produced pragmatically using emergent knowledge processing as a value of a function in the present of time forward. The capacity comes from the knowable unnameable in a human mind.
Welcome to this Wiki for emergent human knowledge processing professionals, using mindful 1st Empt i Self conception solutions to enable clear core, willing to know now, iStates. Inclusively understanding why our lifelong recurring emotionally bound "I from We" in Me, is not willing or able to know coherently in iNow in time forward. The world is not flat and as evidenced in lived experiences of the present, the embodied capable Me-mind never steps into the same evanescent iState twice.
The freedom to know I, involves opening the present with clear core willing to know now iStates. The I from We in Me, is systemically naïve and self conception derived using this I cannot reach Me. You will hear people say the map is not the territory where the unnameable knowable of a human Me-Mind is acknowledged as beyond the naming conventions. If no two people see the same rainbow should we act as if romance makes it so? A traceable antifragile self conception for people who can understand, where if it is true love survives.
Hoi polloi iStates commonly known as persona type iStates are referred to here as the I in Me, from We which hopefully clarifies why the I from We can only create a naïve self conception that cannot follow the knowledge and remain consistent and its essential claim is consistency even in time forward. The system of language cannot name the knowable unnameable in a human mind including poignent insights like synestesia that reveal a glimmer of manifold potential.
The nous of slimemould that makes new potential in relatively empty space or fungas that feeds back simple ground up feddback is beyond the ken of the naive self conception derived using the I from We isomorphically conflated with self in Me, no matter who your father was.
This Wiki is here to provide further more detailed information about the emergent knowledge processing solutions for those seeking more information when coming from the blog or exploring the iWitness Upskilling Course for transforming the Inner Critic.
We begin with a fundamental claim: The human I from We in Me, salts my mine.
While this metaphor captures the flavour of the disqualification problem that calls for these solutions there are three headline reasons for the identification of the I from We in Me, as naturally unwilling to know in time forward. Using time forward with lived experiences in the present as the source of understanding unmasks the systemic errors that have made making sense in a capable human Me-Mind impossible. To spend our life trying to be something that never could be, is only tragic if we were here in the form we imagined we were, as we can now see we were not. To try to be something for the "We", to be cool, to be successful in their I's may sooth our hoi polloi iStates our human minds fused with belonging to a U set, the will to know now is simply not free to arise without emotionally painful disabuse and we are looking for an effortless will to know now for our solutions. We must stop asking our I from We to do things it cannot do it is not free of the They that binds it..
- If, no two people see the same rainbow, what I is in love with what you that does not seek to tie you to some I from We in Me?
- Firstly, the linear bindings in natural language that disqualifies language as having the capacity to include the knowable unnameable, which is essential to an embodied human Me mind capable of enjoying the harmony of music.
- Secondly the discovery that feelings are not reasons and the upstream and downstream consequences of this discovery for rational understanding of the I in Me as self.
- Thirdly the clear revelation that the I in Me from We cannot authentically claim to love, in time forward, belies how even sincere objects of desire are incapable of yielding lasting satisfaction in iNow.
Wilful ignorance is revealed as NOT a moral flaw, when self conception is conflated with error by the tribe. Wilful ignorance is a structural consequence of self conceptions derived using emotionally clad hoi polloi iStates, conflated with some such self in Me.
When your human identity is derived from socially inherited narratives—status roles, group belonging, or emotional survival strategies—your capacity for clear participation in emergent knowledge is structurally compromised, when fight, flight and freeze responses are wired to belonging narratives. If we accept that we emerge in a local Universal cohesion in embodied time forward our energetic nature involves infinitely more infinities that the linear bound infinities in a natural language self conception, long before the supremacy claims of a tribe the human self conception system is bound like Ptolemysation bound our vision of the heavens, new knowledge changes the game for a capable mind, now.
In one time forward lifetime, in a capable, aware human mind there is available an empty space that is not merely absence but the condition for willing awareness. When the contingent “I” that needs to be over-against to be I, dissolves, delight arises in participation with the present. Satisfaction is then felt not as a possession but as resonance, an effortless being-with. This is the difference between joy as something “I” have, and delight as what is revealed when the present is open to willing awareness.
A simple observation to help open the I from We in Me:
The Antinomy of Forgiveness, sometimes the simple things are the hardest to understand for Me.
When the Inner Critic says you are guilty and when it later says that’s ok too, these appear as opposites. One condemns, the other absolves. But structurally they are the same move:
Both presuppose an author of the act (“I did this”).
- Both presuppose a judge (We, or its internalized representative).
- Both result in the binding of Me into I, judged by We.
- Thus, forgiveness and condemnation are not opposites but mirror-images of the same binding structure. This is why forgiveness cannot dissolve the Inner Critic’s loop — it remains trapped in the antinomy of language.
The ecological structure underpinning the solutions emerges within a time forward ontology using temporally bound evanescent iStates of present awareness coded through ground up feedback from lived experience in the present, as signal before name:
The EmptiSelf Conception: A Structural Upgrade
- The EmptiSelf replaces inherited roles with process-based participation.
- This framework does not suppress pain—it transforms it.
- Anxiety becomes signal, not symptom
- Imposter syndrome becomes evidence of participation under distortion
- Error becomes fuel for clarity
This makes the system epistemically antifragile: pain is not numbed, but reused—refined into signal.
Who This Is For—and Who It Is Not for today. This framework in the form it is here is not suitable for:
- Servant leadership
- Coaching or psychotherapy
- Self-help or affirmational learning
- Motivational or trauma-processing contexts
This is not about “being your best self.”
It’s about disentangling self-conception from participation, so that judgment in the present becomes clear and accountable to reason.
Exegesis:
to draw meaning out. In Buddhism it opens sutras to reveal emptiness; in Mi-iMind it opens the present. Lived experience is read as text, information as energy, clarified only through willing-to-know iStates. Meaning arises ground-up, not imposed, even in the face of unwilling-to-know.
Participation in Present Judgment is Structural
“Judgment is the hinge of wilful positive, present, participation.”
In a time-forward human life, you are always judging in the present, including judging yourself, whether consciously or not.
You do not get to opt out. You only get to decide how you will judge if you have the skills:
Reactively, through inherited self-conceptions Or structurally, using reason as the compass for now
Accepting judgement as the hinge for determining what is positive means the deontic imperative to reason is not moral—it is structural.
If you wish to participate in professional emergent knowledge processing, reason is not optional.
Why the Inner Critic Must Be Transformed
The Inner Critic arises from hoi polloi iStates: social roles that serve to survive, belong, and perform legitimacy.
“I am a healer.” “I am a Don.” “I am a Shaman.” “I am a Banker.” “I am a Celebrity.” “I am an Influencer.”
These are all self-conceptions entangled with social validation that claim agency in My I mind.
Why Your Inner Critic Gets Confused
- The Inner Critic becomes confused because it is built from these structural instabilities:
- The Antinomy of Forgiveness
- It cannot distinguish between condemning and forgiving, because both rely on the same binding grammar.
- Result: it believes it is helping by soothing (“that’s ok too”) but is in fact reinforcing guilt.
- Feelings as Reasons
- It treats the intensity of a feeling as evidence for meaning (“I feel ashamed, therefore I failed”).
- Result: conflation of affect with inference.
- Time Bindings
- It confuses past, present, and future premises.
Example: “You failed before → therefore you will fail again.”
Result: projections that appear like inevitabilities.
Imputed/Borrowed Authority
It imports rules from religion, family, culture, or professional standards as if they were timeless truths.
Example: “Real experts never doubt.”
Result: judgment smuggled in as absolute.
Telos and Normative Conflicts
It tries to uphold contradictory “goods.”
Example: “Be honest, but don’t upset anyone.”
Result: no matter what you do, you’re wrong.
Conventions are Binding
- Politeness Masks, make speaking the truth rude
It sometimes criticizes harshly, other times politely (“that’s ok too”), but both arise from the same binding.
Result: confusion between attack and reassurance.
Linear Claims vs. Time-Forward Life
- Any linear statement (“always,” “never,” “if X then Y”) eventually meets disqualification in time.
Result: the Inner Critic is constantly disproved by lived experience, yet keeps repeating the structure.
Even well-meaning professionals perpetuate structural ignorance by defending these roles.
This includes academics who assume the will to know as given. In truth, most sincere professionals unknowingly suppress emergent knowledge—especially when it disqualifies their group-bound epistemic structure.
Why human curated AI is Used
To restructure judgment, the training begins with AI-facilitated reasoning.
This is not because AI is superior. It’s because AI can provide consistent structural disqualification of faulty reasoning—especially when feelings are used as reasons—without interpersonal entanglement.
Core Purpose: Positive Present Participation Using Process Purposes
- By aligning to process purposes, you create local systems where:
- Goal and path become one
- Adaptive understanding accelerates
