genə-

PIE base ‘to give birth, bear, beget, produce, generate’, with derivatives referring to aspects and results of procreation and to familial and tribal groups.

Other derivatives include morphogenesis, hylogenesis, bioogenesis, noogenesis, kin, king, jaunty, pregnant, and gingerly.

[Pokorny *ĝen-1, ĝenǝ-, ĝnē-, ĝnō- 373–375. These root forms are the same as for gnō-, root of know, cognitive, noble, etc.]

generous

When we are generous, we express our Genuine Noble Nature, by being kind to our kith and kin, which is all eight billion folk on Earth. For, these seven boldened words share the same PIE base (ĝen‑, ĝenǝ‑, ĝnē‑, and ĝnō‑), distinguished as *genə- ‘to give birth’ and *gnō- ‘to know’.

genetics

Whatever genetics might or might tell us about the biological evolution of the species, this specialist discipline can tell us little about the origin and destiny of humankind, because for the past several thousand years, evolution has been more noogenetic than biogenetic.

Furthermore, while we inherit some somatic or physiological characteristics from our parents, what we learn from our teachers, parents, and peers has a far greater influence on our social behaviour patterns, on how we view the world we live in, and hence on our institutions.

Genesis

Even though none of us is ever separate from the Origin of the Universe for a moment, the etymology of genesis indicates the difficulties that humans have faced over the years to understand our origin as a species.

generalist

From the perspective of Panosophy, a generalist is someone who abstracts simplicity from the complexity of the world we live in.
