Or the I Ching's way?
Each trigram represents a 'way' of learning, as does each hexagram. The more recursion the more categories - SENSORY experience is specialist on top of the universal qualities in that they are sensory-free.

If we work off the di-gram levels we have identity-seeking teaching, security-seeking teaching, problem-solving teaching, sensation-seeking teaching.

The primary/highschool 'sides' of the binary sequence cover 85% of teachers and focus on identity seeking and security seeking (socialisation processes). Problem solving teaching is more tertiary and sensation seeking teaching is more Master/Apprentice (hands on etc, competitive skills development, high practical precision as compared to problem solving that is more high theory precision)

Move to trigrams and it is all blend, bond, bound, bind with qualifiers of contract/expand etc and so eight 'styles'.

Self-reference them and we jump from 8 to 64. - the fragmentation that emerges elicits 'specialist' teaching and so exposure to 'fundamentalism' etc - be it religious or secular.

Learning the IDM categories, through the IC etc, allows for grounding in the generic and then comes specialisation (and so awareness of 'other ways' as on specialises - most perspectives these days start with a specialist perspective and so are not aware of the alternatives)

If we map in the MBTI categories we find eight types of prayer etc!

Yin/Yang

Earth - Mediation

The primary/highschool 'sides' of the binary sequence cover 85% of teachers and focus on identity seeking and security seeking (socialisation processes).

The refinement of mediation


Move to trigrams and it is all blend, bond, bound, bind with qualifiers of contract/expand etc and so eight 'styles'.

Earth -Mediation - Heaven

So the Heaven is characterized by contract/expand qualifier ...

Self-reference them and we jump from 8 to 64. - the fragmentation that emerges elicits 'specialist' teaching and so exposure to 'fundamentalism' etc - be it religious or secular.

specialization ...
BTW, which hexagrams fits the profile of fundamentalism?

so I Ching is a specialist perspective of the old old times ...

and soccer players ...

Those dominated with Yang.

Thus fundamentalism in Earth is associated with 12 - the focus on fighting to parry the attacks of others on one's faith and in so doing strengthening that faith.

For others we have:

fundamentalism of mountain - 33
of water - 06
of wind - 44
of thunder - 25
of fire - 13
of lake - 10
of heaven - 11 to 01 (11, 26, 05, 09, 34, 14, 43, 01)

The 'pointedness', the competitiveness, the singlemindedness covered in all of these reflect aspects of 'fundamentalism'. - the compromise focus of 06 is in the meeting the enemy half way, no more, no less - this is a 'fundamentalist' position - give no ground, but contains a yin root in the bottom line, and so no taking of ground either.

Thus 12 neutralises, it does not REPLACE, it recognises a coexisting with others and so cannot 'kill' as such. 11 can in that it DOES focus on replacement through mediation - the exaggerated form of 11 is 01, highly singleminded, competitive, focused on refining one's skills.

The cooperative forms will be mapped to lake. As such PASSION is an intense experience that overcomes reason etc and is intense, raw, in form but lacking the 'killer' aspects of competitive forms. (in mountain, the home of passion as suffering a loss of love as compared to having as present love, so the focus is on enticement - be it through cooperative (31) or competitive (33) means).

For each hexagram we can use XOR to indicate the core 'fundamentalism' within each hexagram (the above comments cover meanings across a common trigram base). Here we find fundmentalism expressed in the 'opposite' of the hexagram. Thus XOR 01 with 01 gives us 02. 02 covers potentials, filtration etc and so the development if skills, instincts, that allow for 'immediate' response to stimuli. That is 'fundamental' in that there is no thought applied.

Thus the yangness of water is 01 XOR 29 = 30. The core, fundamental aspect of 29 (a focus on containment/control) is in imposition of an ideology. IN reverse the core aspect of 30 is 29 where an ideology acts to contain/control (or more so reflects containment/control taken to 'fundamentalist' extremes)

The fundamentalist focus of 15 is 01 XOR 15 = 10 as is 10 of 15 and so on.

If we go back and look at 12 so WITHIN it (rather than viewing it from a share-bottom-trigram perspective) we have 01 XOR 12 = 11. The fundamentalist aspect, the intense, singleminded aspect, of 12 is in mediation (11) but as an act of protection - and so the overall sense of neutralising.

The IC, being a language, is made of symbols doing double duty in that they reflect 'all there is' in a finite set where 'all there is' is potentially infinite. Thus we have to consider local context to 'ground' the hexagrams in some specialist meaning.
