Godhead

[edwschreiber at earthlink.net]

This is not the case.  Moreno did not avoid these questions about the BIG issues.  Instead, 
he wrote extensively about it.  Much is contained in the archives at the Countway Library 
and some of that is not published in Autobiography of a Genius.
 
I would alter it to suggest the the beingness of the undifferentiated experience is in the present moment,
to be found.

I agree about the godhead as the source of spontaneity. And the corollary is that the state of spontaneity is a doorway to the beingness of that undifferentiated experience. If, a BIG if, we stop intervening with the here and now.
Good conversation. To me it all comes under the heading of What Moreno Didn’t Say. Interesting that Bud (was it?) inferred the Morenos avoided these questions. I wonder why?
 
By the way, as a ruminator, I’m enjoying the slower pace of this conversation vs my previous experience of group talk as shaped by a quick fire responses.

I have been part of a 4,5 years Erasmus+ project in Sociodrama and I find it more easier if you make sociometry as a part of a larger sociodramatic exploration. To find the sociodramatic question together makes the whole process easier and less threatening. The whole setting of the sociodramatic work aims co-creation and co-responsability where the group as a whole is the protagonist and the group fines the common topic through sociometric choices. The role of the leader in a sociodrama process can be such a sociodramatic question to explore.

Moreno himself and Zerka, I imagine, ( I never asked her directly) were not willing to use it in the universe which they fostered. Many times before I split with them, I asked J.L. To let me begin the process of sociometrizing Their universe with the help of Joe Hart and Charles Loomis and he would chuckle, evade, and avoid committing.
