...replace Maslow's heirarchy with... this... and keep the same doctrine. It might be actionable; an active effort exists to thwart normal development by threatening lower-levels, the response is... ?

It might be very actionable indeed. 'n much like maslow's heirarchy, I'm an improbable paradox - living at the tip (usually, #4, which is also in Maslow's version), dealing with the bottom.

This... may be a very actionable paradigm for devolving the active and deliberate attack on our chance for self-development... and the less our horizons are limited, the more power our actions will have.

Also, they translated "kamma" corectly. Just sayin'.
