LP Psychological Framework
The LP Psychological Framework is a component of the Lightning Path Human Development Framework (LPHDF). It theoretically delineates the various elements and relational dynamics of the human psyche.

Key Statements
The Human Psyche consists of several elements, an underlying non-material core consciousness, neurological and instinctual underpinnings (algorithms/instincts/Ego Modes), and emergent generative phenomenon (emotions, cognition, Bodily Ego).
Human Consciousness is a dual consciousness. It consists of a Bodily Ego governed and limited by the evolutionary neurology and biology of the Physical Unit and a powerful and eternal Spiritual Ego which is neither limited nor significantly impacted by material reality.
The Human Psyche, its elements, structures, and function, are designed to help the Physical Unit survive, thrive, and connect.
The Human Psyche is powerful, highly adaptable, and extremely sensitive. Handled improperly (directing violence towards it, neglecting it's Seven Essential Needs, exposing it to Toxic Socialization) damages it, leading to the 5Ds of Toxic Existence.
Understanding human health, development, and potential—creating Eupsychia by nurturing full Human Potential—requires an in-depth understanding of all elements of the human psyche, what they are, how they function, and how they interact.
The primary goal of Human Development is to develop a healthy, fully actuated/fully realized Physical Unit capable of achieving a strong and persistent Connection (i.e., Perfection) between the Spiritual Ego and Bodily Ego
In order to develop a healthy Physical Unit with a strong and independent Bodily Ego, all Seven Essential Needs of the individual must be sufficiently met throughout an individual’s lifespan.
When all of the seven essential needs are sufficiently met, the individual Bodily Ego enters Growth Mode. When in growth mode, the individual devotes time and energy towards creative, humanitarian, and spiritual pursuits.
When any of the seven essential needs go unmet, the bodily ego enters Deficit Mode and incurs significant biological damage. For example, failing to meet a child’s need for nutritious food damages the neurology and physiology of the body, stunting growth and undermining development. Failing to meet the child's need for love, affection, and unconditional acceptance damages the child's ability to connect. While in Deficit Mode, the bodily ego directs energy and resources towards meeting unmet needs.
When the specific environmental need for a safe home and environment is thwarted, the bodily ego enters Defense Mode. While in defense mode, the bodily ego directs energy towards defending the body from psychological, emotional, physical, or spiritual assault.
When bodily energy is directed towards overcoming deficits or defending assault, growth mode is attenuated or deactivated, and physiological, emotional, and cognitive development Human Development suffers.
Most currently identified psychopathologies are rooted in a neglected and/or traumatized bodily ego operating chronically in deficit mode, defense mode, or both. Most current pathologies may be treated as intelligent attempts by the Physical Unit to adapt to suboptimal environmental conditions.
The goal of psychology is to heal damaged caused by chronic deficits and assaults to the bodily ego may exit deficit and defense mode and enter Growth Mode where energy and resources re directed towards healing and connection.
Notes
Implications for health, agency, and connection: Being as that the primary motivation of an individual in deficit mode is to meet unmet needs, and being that the primary motivation of an individual in defense mode is to protect itself from assault, a physical unit operating in deficit or defense mode is easy to manipulate and control. Any individual or organization that promises the satisfaction of an essential need or protection from assault may gain control over an individual. By contrast, individuals whose essential needs are sufficiently satisfied and who are not constantly directing energy towards protection are independent, creative, and very difficult to manipulate.
- Bodily Algorithms
- Pleasure Principle: The drive to seek pleasure and avoid pain.
- Attachment Algorithm: Mechanisms governing emotional bonds and attachments.
- Defense Algorithm: Algorithms designed to keep the Physical Unit] and Bodily Ego] safe.
- Needs Algorithms: Processes ensuring the fulfillment of fundamental physiological and psychological needs.
- Connection Algorithm: Mechanisms facilitating the connection between the bodily and spiritual egos.
- Reality Algorithms (reality principle): The ability to perceive and navigate the external world effectively
- Ego Modes:
- Growth: Positive development and expansion of self.
- Defense: Protective mechanisms that maintain the status quo.
- Deficit: States of lack or insufficiency.
- Repair: Mechanisms focused on healing and restoring balance.
- Emotional Mechanisms:
- Blocking Emotions/Mechanisms: Emotions that hinder or obstruct.
- Steering Emotions/Mechanisms: Emotions that guide or direct.
- Clearing Emotions/Mechanisms: Emotions that purge or cleanse.
- Signal Emotions/Mechanisms: Emotions that indicate states or conditions.
Connection: The nature and quality of connection between the spiritual and bodily ego, influenced by factors such as:
- Nature of the Body: The physical form and its evolutionary health.
- Seven Essential Needs: Fundamental needs for well-being.
- Life Experiences: Positive and negative experiences that shape development.
- Toxic Socialization: Negative societal influences leading to the 5Ds of Toxic Existence
