The levels at a higher stage of evolution are more moral than levels below. Intellectual patterns take moral precedence over social patterns, social patterns over biological and biological patterns over inorganic. Higher qualities depend on lower qualities for survival. Thus a higher quality can only dominate a lower one in so far as it does not endanger its stability. The universe is evolving away from low quality and towards high quality.
Truth is an intellectual value pattern.
There is no single truth, only high quality and low quality truths. The self is undivided Quality, encompassing both Dynamic and static patterns. As with Quality, the self is both one and many.
