Why, and how, does living structure keep recurring in these widely different domains?

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

• Individual mechanical explanations for each property are too specific to provide a general explanation for why living structure repeatedly appears across all domains.claim0.817
  Alexander's argument that case-by-case mechanical explanations fail to address the universal recurrence of living structure
• Living structure will always rely on its connection to the same ground which underlay traditional forms of mysticism.claim0.803
  A metaphysical assertion that the ground of all things is a necessary, permanent condition for creating living structure.
• Nature manages to create structures that are members of C_living by way of structure-preserving transformations.claim0.800
• The structure we know as living structure is just that kind of structure which has unfolded smoothly and naturally, arising step by step from what exists, preserving the structure of what exists.claim0.799
  Defines living structure as the product of a truthful unfolding process that respects and preserves existing wholeness.
• Living structure is enormously susceptible to minor changes, and accuracy of detail is necessary for success.claim0.797
  Warning that the recursion of centers requires extreme precision.
• Unless we have a form language which supports the necessities of living structure, then living structure is simply out of our reach.quote0.796
  Emphasizes the necessity of a form language for achieving living structure.
• The creation of living structure cannot be done in any other way.claim0.796
• Living structure can only be created by structure-preserving transformations.claim0.796
  A strong normative claim from Book 2 recapitulated in the appendix as a verifiable and surprising conclusion.
