Narrative.

It'd be nice to see an example of the Grand, Outer, and Inner narratives of a single sect or belief system with this explanation. You're kind of drawing examples from all over, it'd be helpful to contrast the parts of a single belief system. I think you have inner covered pretty well, and you put that video into some context, though.

When you've had your poo poo together long enough, it'd be a crying shame if you don't end up with a graduate degree in psychology or counseling or something along those lines, BTW.

Would you agree that everyone has an Inner and Outer Narrative?

Maybe, but not everyone has a SHARED inner or outer narrative that is the basis for group identity.

Or you believe that others will do the same.
