“ Learning to use Ping, Probe, Prompt, Permit, Perturb, and Pause was the most EES thing I ever put together. Even though today, I’m hardly an EES listener, but the tiny bit I do get, is because of this system of Dynamic Inquiry.

Fortunately for me, I’ve always been an "Intuitive" knowing person before realizing how I knew it. I just did. Sometimes it took years to explain and unravel the reasons and the scaffolding that already was in place, only to figure out that indeed, I did know it, just couldn’t tell you why.

Since, I doubt few people have this gift to any large extent, I tried to unravel the model of knowing, and how I used my own gifts to know. Dynamic Inquiry was born over a decade.

Simply, I look at several ways to "engage" someone, when I can be conscious about it. In the event I’m not, I can look at what happened through the rear view mirror of Dynamic Inquiry.

It takes quite a while to explain this method. However, I wanted to at least put it in the TPOV map of FLOW because it’s what led me to inquire about the BS nature of things. I wanted to understand why the tip of the iceberg of BS can be understood by getting the person you are working with, to engage, to reveal where they are in the process of understanding themselves and the BS Subject/Object Relationship –> how much “in” the BS, vs. “of” the BS.

Here are the 6 P’s, simply to give you an idea:

Ping, Probe, Prompt, Permit, Perturb, and Pause from less invasive to more invasive.”

Tomorrow, I will share with you, Mike’s description of each of the 6 P’s.
