An interpretation of social and psychological development that could also be considered a theory of spiritual evolution is [[spiral dynamics]], based on the work of [[Clare W. Graves]]. Spiral Dynamics posits a series of stages through which human's cultural development progresses&nbsp;– from a survival-based hunter-gatherer stage to a magical-tribal-agrarian stage to a city-building-invading stage to a mythic-religious-empire stage to a rational-scientific-capitalist stage to a green-holistic-inclusive stage and then ascending to a second tier where all the previous stages are contemplated and integrated and a third transpersonal tier where a spiritual unity or Omega point is eventually reached, which all the other stages are struggling to embody. He feels that individuals in each of the meme-plexes/stages can ascend to the peak of consciousness&nbsp;– these being the prophets, visionaries and leaders of any region/age.
