The meta-crisis is better described as a relationship crisis. If we want to improve our relationships, the question emerges who is in relationship? Depending on where I draw the boundaries of the self, I might not even be able to be in relationship with.
I like this way of framing the metacrisis - and the clarity of these onto-stories and graphics for generating reflection. I’ve used a variation of the holographic graphic:
Reality is evolution
Relation is relationship
Reality is the evolution of relationship
Crisis is an evolutionary driver
All crisis is a crisis of relationship
All crisis is resolved by the emergence of
a new order of relationship
These words by David J. Temple reminded me of your framing.

Thanks for sharing. I will check out the book "Meditation and the Mind of Man".
