3	Sprial Dynamics Questionnaire		Personal Perspective	Assessment Scale

4	1	How strong is your connection to ceremonies, symbols, nature, art, family celebrations, and/or rites of passage?	Select	For each of the questions, rate yourself from 0-6, where:
5	2	Do you sometimes make a stand, raise a big stink, truly attempt to steer the group your way? To what extent?	Select	0 = no, virtually never
6	3	Do you feel that political leaders and the government in general are worthy of respect and should be followed, even if many people say they're wrong?	Select	1 = seldom, not really
7	4	Do you sometimes find yourself unable to make a decision because there are so many points of view and so many people's opinions to take into consideration?	Select	2 = sometimes, somewhat
8	5	Do you tend to get bogged down in complex analysis? Do you build castles in the air; inventing beautiful futuristic solutions, which are not pragmatic?	Select	3 = equally yes and no
9	6	To what extent do you tend to put your primary identity ahead of the world (white, black, Jew, Arab, Irishman, liberal, conservative, businessman, environmentalist, straight, gay, Christian, atheist . . . whatever it is for you)?	Select	4 = fairly often, mostly
10	7	How frequently are you the one to take command, to jump in and lead the team?	Select	5 = frequently, predominently
11	8	Do you feel that your religion is truly connected to a higher power, and that this connection sometimes overrides other considerations?	Select	6 = virtually always, definitely
12	9	How often does your anger run away with you?	Select
13	10	To what extent are you orderly, disciplined, and rule-abiding?	Select
14	11	Do you read and refer to the holy books of an organized religion, and do those books provide firm guidance for your life? To what extent would people describe you as traditional?	Select
15	12	Do you see the Earth, its inhabitants and the entire cosmos as an integrated whole, a single collective organism operating in perfect harmony?	Select
16	13	How superstitious are you (eg - cross your fingers, say a silent prayer before a golf shot or an exam)?	Select
17	14	Is the interior practice you may have built for yourself more and more important and satisfying in your life? Does it seem to lead toward a more outward, generous, inclusive attitude, and that possessions (even non-physical ones such as fame and excitement) just seem sometimes to get in the way?	Select
18	15	Do you have a strong ego based on your own perceptions and thinking? Do people experience you as strong-minded and solid, almost willful?	Select
19	16	To what extent are you sincerely inclusive of real difference in people? Gays and straights, rich and poor, black, white, brown, religious, secular, atheist, everybody . . . truly included in your world. ¬	Select
20	17	Do you believe that your spiritual existence is an end unto itself, a life to achieve and rest in?	Select
21	18	You see people who are true believers in a religion or a cause, and you might think them a little infantile, but you envy their enthusiasm. Is that like you?	Select
22	19	Have you cultivated an interior life using meditation, prayer, or some kind of regular discipline that stills the mind?	Select
23	20	How intuitive are you (eg - read a roomful of strangers, read an unfamiliar situation based on gut feeling rather than analysis)?	Select
24	21	To what extent do you truly think independently, rationally, and autonomously? Be careful here: it's easy for wishful thinking to inflate your view, or for low self-esteem to downgrade it.	Select
25	22	Do you sometimes find yourself in an emotional reaction to hierarchy?	Select
26	23	As you look around your circle of friends and associates, does it seem that you are less fearful, less stressed, less anxious than others? Do you feel more solid, more quiet, more at home in your own skin? More attuned to the simple joy of being alive and aware in every moment, and less distracted by the ups and downs of daily life?	Select
27	24	When in conversation, how often does it come back to being about you?	Select
28	25	Do you sometimes say things that are true, but perhaps inappropriate, that might alienate people you are close to? Maybe you're not trying to be a jerk, but might it seem like that to someone watching?	Select
29	26	Do you tend to get lost in your enthusiasm so much that you forget to connect to people, seeming cold and distant?	Select
30	27	Do you explore, feel and pragmatically work with others to solve large complex problems that serve humanity and the Earth?	Select
31	28	Do you sometimes focus inwardly in spiritual consciousness too long without taking earthly action?	Select
