Supra - Irrationalism

Supra irrationality or irrationalism is an emergent subject pertaining to the philosophical orientation or psychological equilibrium of individual and collective actors at the international, national, and local levels. There is a direct but inverse relationship to super rationality which is a game theory prisoner's dilemma approach. Here two supra rationality players by logic and reason will choose to cooperate exactly to the betterment of each.

Supra irrationality will give demonstratable explanations to acts that appear to be fragmented and disjointed. Here there is usually a dissymmetry of information and power and control. One actor wishes to further one's benefit usually by deception, force, and or coercion. This is also true for the punishment or degradation of another player. The concept of under the color of law is invoked. Usually there is some predetermined plan or goal that is wished to be implemented. Herein the use of the word supra is clarified. There is usually an external system that is irrational that is dictating this mode of consciousness to a subordinate dependent party. If it is an individual or group the fatalistic higher party is invented or has ceased operating and the fatalistic-dependent relationship continued to justify psychic content and activities.

The concept of Higher Structural Levels of Cognition and the Culture of Impunity has to be considered.

At all levels of a system or hierarchy the following are true.


  • In prisoner's dilemma supra irrationality is never optimal.
  • In this approach two or more players always choose defect. As in simple prisoner's dilemma the prosecutor will always use betrayal against two other players. Here is where the supra irrationality has it's decisive distinction the principle of the descending operation is wrong, immoral, or illegal.
  • In a phenomenological perspective of an individual player it may be marginal in the short run. The belief is that continued defection will yield the greatest benefit.

The direct implication here is of morality, leadership, the color of authority, and the setting especially of where one system is attempting to transform another to it's interest. The theories of deontology and consequentialism are in conflict. Supra irrationalism has a marginal advantage to occur in benefit cost ratio where an individual or minority can be sacrificed for the majority or whole. This is an opening that irrationalist actors would seek to exploit.

Conversely antinomianism or lawless in the name of God is also a probability. This will have direct impact on theories of war, genocide, and international relations. In a simple truth table if in a hierarchical set of ten elements in column p as true and b false; it is possible for a controller to engage two subordinate players in prisoner's dilemma to choose all ten b or false choices. This would invert the system. It is possible that if there were ten players one as the controller would be wishing to implicate a status quo in a hierarchy.

There is a direct implication here in eternal law with revisionist philosophy or state or police control over philosophy.

The tradition of Tibetan Buddhism is for the Dalai Lama and astrologers to ascertain the next leader from those qualified candidates wishing to reincarnate. The youth picked by the present Dalai Lama has disappeared. The Chinese government through it's astrological selection has begun picking the next Dalai Lama.

The Hare Krishna Movement in the particularity of ISKCON has experienced heavy entrapment from the police with nine of the eleven diksa gurus originally authorized haven fell.

Kirtananda Maharaj pleaded guilty to RICO related charges and served about seven years in prison while rejecting allegations in a devotee murder. Kirtananda Maharaj had lead a synchronic breakaway movement where sannyasi wore Franciscan robes and were called abbots in New Vrndavana, West Virginia. Ramesvara Maharaj was the guru in Los Angeles, California and was removed for having illicit relations with a minor. A guru war was the setting for this intervention.

This has an implication here in RICO prosecutions and claims of illegal entrapment. There is also the legal question of "handing of cases" to other officials whom do not know if something illegal has occurred. A child molester who has violated a youth will create an array of illogic as to why the youth must be murdered. The youth in many instances is the only direct witness. In lieu of this an hierarchy of extortive threats to their life, family, friends, or pets often follows.

The classic stoning or the story of The Lottery clearly illustrates the concept of supra irrationality as it attempts to transform, systematize, and institutionalize a process and structure.

The simple story of The Lottery or a Stoning provides as excellent model as to how supra irrationality attempts to organize agents and thinking in a system and controls such. Here formal fallacies of reason as the converse and reverse converse accident unfold. Number 4 picks up a stone and threatens Number 3 in that he must pick up a stone and threaten Number 2. Number 3 agrees and Number 2 is approached. Number 4 and 3 now approach Number 2 and threaten such that he must approach Number 1. Number 3's argument is that he must or Number 4 will stone him. Number 1 is approached and threatened. He attempts to stone Number 4 and is killed by Number 4, 3, and 2.

Here in a basic format we observe a circular folly of under the color of law or authority. There are also Racketeered Influenced Behaviors as intimidation of a witness, extortion, blackmail, hostaging, and murder.
