Notes
Stanislav Groff speaks of spontaneous alignment this in the context of the spontaneous establishment of what Abraham Maslow called Metamotivations.
I believe that there is a system of core values which are transpersonal, which transcend those of the existing cultures.

Mike Sosteric notes a historical case of spontaneous alignment.[2]
Offord provides several examples of folks who, after a powerful Conversion Experience, suddenly started behaving in a more Aligned fashion.
I was once one of the dirtiest, drunken, fighting old tramps you ever saw. God converted me in an instant; I never swore an oath since that day, nor knocked a man down--that is, in anger;...but what I claim is that God takes the ugly fight all out of a man when he converts him....he takes away all desire to harm any one else.[3]
