The means to power

Koan 60.6

Every being: 'action to be' means: 'intends' and thus 'tends towards' the accumulation of power: 'ability' by will of the Gospel.

Summary exposition

he central mechanism is the directive will of the fundamental ontological principle (the Gospel) that orients all beings' intention toward the accumulation of ability. A single, potent example is an entire ecosystem evolving toward greater complexity and resilience; each entity's action to be is a tendency, guided by this overarching law, to increase its collective ability to persist and flourish. The implication is that the drive for power is not a chaotic struggle but a coherent, universal tendency inherent to the conference of difference. Individual intention is thus a localized expression of a universal imperative.
