BEHAVIOR

WHY WE BEHAVE THE WAY WE DO


"Each aspect of the Ethics of Unity can provide us with a higher perspective to observe our behavior in relation to our life and to our work, and also will give us a way to redirect the behavior of our family, work or group."
—Oscar Ichazo

Behavior, Why We Behave The Way We Do offers an introduction and guided instructions for you to use Oscar Ichazo's ethical enneagrams in answering specific questions, which will help you recognize aspects of behavior both personally and in your interactions with other people.

By revealing an objective set of positive and negative ethical positions that affect all human behavior, this book provides you with a broader perspective on why we behave the way we do. Its map of the Immoral Force and the Ethics of Unity includes questions to identify your positive and negative ethical behaviors while seeing clearly what ethical behaviors benefit a person and their social interactions.

The book gives a complete description of the positive and negative ethical positions with descriptions of each of the 18 enneagram positions that we all use. The book increases our personal awareness of ethics but also our view and analysis of the world's societies.

"The Ethics of Unity act as an antidote or a force to counteract the lower behavioral presentations of the Immoral Force…. By awakening this knowledge that is already in us, the Ethics of Unity will be available to us to apply in our everyday life.”
—Oscar Ichazo

This book provides us with the understanding of Ichazo's perspective on how higher and lower behaviors actually manifest and how this understanding directly influences our lives and our orientation toward the higher States of Unity. This information is presented clearly, making it an easy reference to keep in mind in our daily life, giving us the ability to recognize our behavior and the behavior of others as well.

The outcome of becoming familiar with Ichazo's teachings about the higher and lower levels of behavior will give us a direct and realistic understanding and explanation of the fundamental ground of why people behave the way they do, opening knowledge to apply to many aspects of our life for the betterment of everyone.

"The Ethics of Unity make available to us the actual energy working throughout our lives, guiding us in the right direction and reflecting a higher ethical behavior…. It is the orientation toward Unity that gives us the opportunity to embody knowledge from the point of view of an ethical understanding."
—Oscar Ichazo"

EXCERPTS
Finding Perspective
"Being able to identify your behavior or the behavior of others gives you an advantage in knowing what's going on at any given moment. Having the two clear examples of higher and lower behaviors in mind, you can apply this information on an ongoing basis. As time goes on, you will continue to deepen your understanding of the innate orientation and subsequent manifestations that make these behaviors easy to recognize, giving you knowledge to apply in your daily life."

Being Informed
"How does this give you an advantage? By clarifying the higher and lower behaviors in yourself and by identifying examples of your own behavior and that of others, a higher perspective is attained, and we are no longer uninformed about the manifestations of our own behavior and the behavior of others."

Remaining Neutral
"You might be inclined to want to change someone's Immoral Force projections about a particular situation, but it is suggested that you observe this behavior and not engage in an endless process that your attempt might provoke. By remaining neutral, you may give the person the space to reword their originally projected opinion or reaction, if that is their orientation."

"The Ethics of Unity act as an antidote or a force to counteract the lower behavioral presentations of the Immoral Force."
—Oscar Ichazo

The Process of Transformation
"The nine points of the Immoral Force are demonstrated in our life to one degree or another, and we all have higher and lower aspects of behavioral patterns. It is the orientation of Unity that gives us the opportunity to make conscious choices with the knowledge of these patterns from the point of view of recognizing both the higher and lower levels with awareness."

We Are One
"This Self is innate in all of us, and therefore there are no differences between human beings in terms of the natural Goodness promoted by our natural Ethical Self. All human beings are equal from the point of view of the Ethical Self, and this is the basis for producing a new understanding upon the ground of Unity."

The Nine Points
"All the transcendental teachings of integral philosophy inevitably become ethical propositions. In integralism ethics are considered to be not moral judgments of good and bad in the sense of abstract idealistic propositions, but an actual energy generated by the orientation toward Unity. In this sense, ethics are manifestations of the primordial energy derived from the orientation toward Unity. This force like any other process has nine cyclical points as shown in the Enneagram of the Ethics of Unity."

"Unity is the collective energy of the previous eight ethical points with the outcome of realizing your Higher Ethical Self by the experience of being unified with others in your life."

A Broader View
"By broadening our perspective we recognize that, with the force of Integral Ethics, we are all equally indispensable for the higher attainment of Unity, and our social environment becomes an invaluable field for objective actions in this direction. The Ethics of Unity make us active participants and actors rather than bit players, giving us the most formidable way to attain the highest Unity to benefit others upon a united ground in which all our human aspirations will be actualized."

Common Path
"The Arica school is an organized community of individuals on a common path and it reflects the maturity of its aliveness as a cultural manifestation because integral philosophy is founded on the principle of the similarity of all human beings and because we all participate in an innate unborn eternal principle this principle becomes the basis of the school which considers every human being as a natural or Recon and as much as we all belong to the same body and spirit of humanity one or united humanity when this unity happens its blessing can intensify to incredible magnitudes because it covers the basic demand of humanity the attainment in this life of the state of enlightenment since the most remote antiquity it has been known that humanity as such can only be truly described in terms of the presence of enlightenment or its absence."

"The fact is that a true Ethical Self exists in every human being."

Encontrando Perspectiva

"Poder identificartu comportamiento o el comportamiento de otros te da una ventaja para saber lo que está sucediendo en cualquier momento. Teniendo en mente los dos ejemplos claros de comportamientos más altos y más bajos, puedes aplicar esta información de manera continua. Con el paso del tiempo, seguirás profundizando tu comprensión de la orientación innata y las manifestaciones posteriores que hacen que estos comportamientos sean fáciles de reconocer, dándote conocimiento para aplicar en tu vida diaria."

Estar Informado
"¿Cómo te daesto una ventaja? Al aclarar los comportamientos más altos y más bajos en ti mismo y al identificar ejemplos de tu propio comportamiento y del de los demás, se alcanza una perspectiva superior, y ya no estamos desinformados sobre las manifestaciones de nuestro propio comportamiento y del comportamiento de los demás."

Mantenerse Neutral
"Podrías sentirte inclinado a querer cambiar las proyecciones de Fuerza Inmoral de alguien sobre una situación particular, pero se sugiere que observes este comportamiento y no te involucres en un proceso interminable que tu intento podría provocar. Al mantenerte neutral, puedes darle a la persona el espacio para reformular su opinión o reacción proyectada originalmente, si esa es su orientación."

"La Ética de la Unidad actúacomo un antídoto o una fuerza para contrarrestar las manifestaciones conductuales inferiores de la Fuerza Inmoral." —Oscar Ichazo

EL Proceso De Transformación
"Los nueve puntosde la Fuerza Inmoral se manifiestan en nuestra vida en mayor o menor grado, y todos poseemos aspectos superiores e inferiores en nuestros patrones de comportamiento. Es la orientación hacia la Unidad la que nos brinda la oportunidad de realizar elecciones conscientes, basándonos en el conocimiento de estos patrones y desde la perspectiva de reconocer, con plena consciencia, tanto los niveles superiores como los inferiores."
