  2. The way I could describe this phenomenon that I experienced that was clear that the closest word to describe it in the English language is "Femininity".... I would say that you may be able to get a taste of it by being outside at night near a misty body of water... and feeling calm and serene in the silence. But this isn't how it feels to be a woman on a typical basis. The experience of woman-like-ness does overlap with Femininity in many ways... but there's also uniquely human things that are not specifically reflective of the Feminine. But if you're going for the direct energy of the Feminine subtle quality, I think outside at night in the silence of nature and sensing your interconnection with nature is a good way to get a taste of the Feminine polarity in a non-gender-focused way. But I have a video where I talk about qualities to integrate if you want to integrate the Feminine...
  3. Literally like a kid who just learned a new word and uses it everywhere. Embarrassing. And deeply ironic, as far as the topic of group think is concerned.
  4. @Majedif you are so interested in group think and intelligence, then you should know that a more independent, intelligent response would be addressing my argument directly and explaining what you think is wrong with it, instead of changing the topic.
  5. It's the essence of your being is it not? I'm trying to grasp what it would actually feel like to be a woman. I fail at this. But my point is what is this principle of which you speak? Is it a feeling within?
  6. @Something Funny Dude obviously spiral dynamics is group think, like there's not even a need for debate.
  7. Thank you for sharing that. The deep Feminine definitely isn't just a woman thing. It's just that, within the English language, the closest word we have to describing the phenomenon of that polarity is the word "Feminine". But it doesn't derive from human gender.... but it supersedes and informs human gender expressions. Like, when I went into that first medicine journey, I believed for most of my life that Masculinity and Femininity were only social constructs with nothing real underneath them. And I was nearly 100% certain about that. But then, when my consciousness expanded in the medicine journey, I experienced this subtle energy all around me and within me in the plants, trees, night, and myself. And the only word in the English language that fit to describe this subtle energy was "Femininity". And it was my first glimpse that there's something real and not socially constructed about the Feminine (and logically that would imply a realness about the Masculine as well). But it didn't remotely resemble any of the cultural constructs around the Feminine that I was familiar with. It had nothing to do with pink, dresses, make-up, shopping, etc. It was dark and quiet and peaceful... and full of life-potential in waiting. And it was me. And I could see what my very Masculine value-system imposed on me by the culture had disconnected me from. And years later, I recognized that other languages had better and more accurate words to describe this subtle quality. So, the closest word that I know to describe it is Yin, as in the Taoist perspective... or Shakti from a Hindu perspective. But the closest word in the English language to describe it is Femininity. But there are problems with this. And that problem is that it gets confusing for people because colloquially people believe "Femininity = woman-like-ness". And we associate the word Femininity with female gender norms and pop cultural ideas around Femininity... and ideas of what makes a woman attractive. But the Feminine supersedes human gender expressions and human gender norms. So, both men and women have this Yin/Feminine polarity within themselves. But it can be noticed that women (as a group) tend to have more Yin in their "energetic signatures" as a collective group. So, there's a lot of muddying of the waters around this topic because we use the word Femininity to describe several things at once. And when I suggest for men to integrate their Feminine side, they often believe that I'm telling them to act like a woman. But all people should integrate their Feminine side and depolarize their values-system and identity, so that one can find their natural energetic signature which is a unique blend of the Masculine and Feminine (Yang and Yin).
  8. Says the guy literally parotting Leo's last video and applying it anywhere it fits and doesn't fit. So lazy, lol. Could have at least used some older video. Like about perspectives, or relativism, or something
  9. @Princess Arabia That's some bullshit, this guy was a sexually frustrated sri lankan, who rarely sees a hot white girl, and so he took his chance. lmao. Obviously.
  10. @Something Funny Unpopular opinion : spiral dynamics is group think and low intelligence.
  11. Root cause of sexual harassment is the low level of development and intelligence. Spiral dynamics stage red.
  12. I think From Software(Dark Souls) might be one of the few left. Also, Kojima Productions come to mind
  13. Enlightened is being open to your true nature now, it's an energetic shift. Now I'm not enlightened, but this morning I was "enlightened" a couple of hours and this afternoon just a while. Enlightenment is when form becomes tenuous, like a transparent hologram, and essence manifests. Essence is neither love nor will; it is total openness, which is not "something," but you are that. You cannot define it; you could say it is the potential that contains everything without being anything, without dimension or quality, but still is total. Then form becomes non-essential, irrelevant. Experience is irrelevant; it is simply a possibility that is equivalent to any other. Simply ceaseless change on the surface and total, immutable "depth" at its core. And the most shocking is that being conscious or unconscious is also irrelevant, you open your heart to death because it's the same than life. Not to another life, to absence of consciousness. It's the same than consciousness. Then in that state, or energetic structure, this depth is everything, you are that, it's not someone, not a center, it's sat chit Ananda. Sat, what is. Chit, evident, that stands out, Ananda, the total freedom, the perfect "happiness" without stain , maybe better total absence of contraction of the unlimited Then from the human structure, that's is very deep, alive, connected, you can understand what is the structure of the movement, why it is happening, because the human structure is open to the openess then it's obvious that the openess makes inevitable the infinite unfolding of the form. But one thing is the flow and another the substance. Not in the sense of they are separate but in the sense that are two different aspects of the reality. You can't understand the essence because "understand" is form, but you can understand the form. The form is relation without end, and there is not a creator, it's inevitable because there are not limits. God is the absence of limits that is same time openness that is and infinite unfolding of change in infinite dimensions, without end. Then you see clearly that if your human form ends, you are the totality, it's not like : after I'm going to live another life. "After" only has meaning from this form. Understanding only has meaning from the human structure, really it is absolutely irrelevant, means absolutely nothing, but as a human it's absolutely fascinating. .
  14. Nice!
  15. Theres psychosomatic factors, theres prior health reasons, theres environmental reasons, theres so many reasons that the karmic reasons almost arent important. The things in ur body now , like your historic karma since birth are important because those involve your deep roots, and the roots get tangled and/or they create faults in the tree, like conflicts with others, or lack of sun, or just like, say your an axe-felled green wood tree... you are then the property of some like lumberjack, and that itself is a dilemma, like are we even free in america, who knows, but it would be nice if we could live somewhere and build things such that everyone can play a part, otherwise we are like, working on things to no end, like without a clear direction or goal. Its hard to find a heading on a ship thats like, just sailing for the sake of, but i myself like sailing, doesnt matter where really. p.s. toxin free living would be a very small change in the grand scheme, as it plays into all the others, as they are all interrelated (or in other words, its all tangled, and the tangling itself doesnt end or begin at toxins)
  16. Yes, we're definitely discussing two perspectives on the Feminine. I'm just not very interested in exploring the anthropological expressions of the Feminine, as the deep Feminine has been buried for many millennia and will not be found very much in culture and anthropology. And it doesn't help me find my own Feminine that I frequently become conscious to in my medicine journeys when the blocks temporarily fall away. The organizing structures of society (like gender roles) are Masculine-principled. And expressions of woman-like-ness are external structures of persona-expression of the symbolic conception of Femininity within a given cultural container. What I am calling the deep Feminine is more internal... and doesn't have to do with organizing principles. Culture, roles (including gender roles), external expressions, categories, and the like are in the Masculine principle. The Feminine principle is organic, un-organized, subjective, and internal. It doesn't have much to do with the layer of reality you're speaking about. It's deeply embedded in one's inner world... which is part of the reasons that the deep Feminine is more resemblant of the physical body of the women (who have their reproductive organs on the inside). But if I were having a discussion about gender roles, cultural patterns, man-like-ness, woman-like-ness, and what's empirically observable... we can certainly have a more Masculine principled conversation on that and explore it through the lens of the Masculine principle. And I'm not opposed to operating from that perspective if that's the right perspective for the job. But I find the Masculine-principled lens too detached from the direct experience of the Feminine and how I can internally and subjectively reconnect with my own repressed Femininity and how women as a collective can also walk the same internal, subjective path. You can understand all you want about what women statistically do in a culture, but that gives you no effective tools for the doing the deep excavation work necessary for finding your repressed Feminine sovereignty.
  17. That's incredible. As a man I've always had a sensitive side. Heck - I cried a few minutes ago about @Yimpa she brought me to tears because of the warmth she brings here which I've always known. And now she is making a gender transition. I guess im one of the lucky ones as a guy that can tap into the Feminine. But that only truly bloomed after my enlightenment. Prior to that I had built up a wall. To where there was no penetrating it. All of my emotions were tucked behind this wall. That's what made my enlightenment so liberating. Now I cry on a dime. That sensitivity I feel now so freely I would like your thoughts on how that plays into the deep Feminine.
  18. Welcome
  19. Give a more specific example, as you might be on to something, but its difficult to see what we're working towards without knowing the down side of absolutes, like its more efficient to say "the problem was resolved", then "the problem had x amount of issues: a, b, c, d, and then we subsequently solved them...", like what i think you were trying to say, and correct me if im wrong... is that there are relative and absolute ways to communicate, and because we dont normally communicate in a way that highlights those (or rather, we dont raise awareness in communication), then we take for granted the power of that aspect—so it might be the method itself of communicating and unearthing those areas of absolute and relative that we want to magnify... or it could be the former and not the latter still.
  20. You need to stop this idiotic reasoning. Lots of rapists are married or have gfs. Lots of flashers do it out of perversion not from sexual frustration. How is one getting their normal healthy sexual needs met by flashing. The root cause of sexual harassment is not from sexual frustration, it's from perverting thinking and a need to express this dysfunction.
  21. Isaiah 45:7 "I form the light and create darkness, I make peace and create calamity; I, the LORD, do all these things." In Hinduism gods physical form is often depicted with a dark hue. The idea is that darkness equates to depth. Like the darkness of the night, the depths of the ocean, the hidden, the mysterious. People often forget what the black part of the yin-yang represents. So it's not like good Vs bad or light Vs darkness. It's good + bad, light + darkness, without exclusive subscription to either and the only variable being love/selflessness.
  22. Yes. He's not aware of what my perspective entails. Like I said, it makes sense that he wouldn't be. He's thinking more about cultural conceptions of woman-like-ness, when I'm speaking more about the Yin polarity and what Femininity is in terms of a direct mystical experience of the subtle energy and the Feminine archetypes. But the argument on his part is moot, because his paradigm on the Feminine doesn't have any tools for me to use to reconnect with that part of myself. And this has been a nearly 2 decades-long journey I've been on where I began with his perspective and found it to be an ineffective way of thinking about things for my journey. So, to my perception, it's just the dilemma of the Dunning-Kreuger... a person who doesn't know how much they don't know. The Dunning-Kreuger knows enough about the surface-level of a topic to where they believe they're knowledgable... but they don't understand that they're operating off of a dearth of knowledge about that topic. But when encountering someone has explored the topic at a deeper level, the Dunning-Kreuger is like, "That's not how it's done!" because it doesn't match with their more surface-level knowledge. For example, when I was 5 years old, I learned that "When you subtract numbers, you take away the smaller number from the bigger number." And so, because I thought I was in the know about math, it certainly could have happened that child-me interacts with some PhD in a math-related field. And then, I correct their math because "Hey! You're not supposed to subtract bigger numbers from smaller numbers. Silly!"
  23. Interesting, I've heard similar things about it, at least that it's pretty light, social, and mood-lifting. Wasn't so great for me, it's confusing but in a lukewarm kind of way, not the total divorce from reality and journey to Wonderland characteristic of stronger stuff. It's also the most impure RC I've seen so far, Chinese lab standards leave a lot to be desired. Either the molecule itself has some weird properties, or they need to make a cleaner batch. Have you tried DMXE? It's not as widely available these days, but is the closest structurally to MXE, the disso golden standard. PCP backbone instead of PCE makes a much more significant difference than methyl vs. methoxy. DMXE is noticeably warm, gentle, and synergetic, matched perhaps only by MXiPr. Is MDMA really that long? Never lasts more than 4 hours for me. Maybe it's just genetic quirks, I also barely register the comedowns that people paint as horrible no matter how much I take, guess daily headaches have created an immunity over time.
  25. Today
  26. I do understand that. And while I do think it's important for men to integrate their Feminine side (which requires some deeper know-how beyond the cultural conception of the female-like-ness), I get that it may not be their top priority to do so. The main thing, with my conversation with the other poster is that he's focusing on the question of "What's empirically true about cultural conceptions of Femininity according to studies?" But my focus is, "What is going to be an effective subjective paradigm on Femininity that I can use (and other women can use) to reconnect with the Feminine in a word that is either unaware of or actively devalues deeper expressions of the Feminine principle?" So, my perspective is "What's effective for integrating the Feminine?" And his perspective is, "What's empirically true about woman-like-ness and female gender roles on a cultural level?" But the answer to his question doesn't give me any tools or perspectives to work with that are effective for my own ends. And to be fair, I did try his way first. I experienced the Feminine directly at age 20. And I tried to shove myself into the traditional female gender role for the first few years of my twenties. And I was with my husband at 20. And I was a mom by 22. So, I was really trying to be just a mom and wife and to carve away my previous identity. But this diminished me and didn't feel anything like what I experienced at 20... which was this deep peaceful essence pregnant with eroticism and power that existed in the night and the trees. And I had made myself very very small. Then, at around 22-23, I stumbled into reading some Feminist literature. And for a few months, I got really into that. And it unwired some more surface-level barriers to reconnecting with m Feminine. But it didn't go deep enough. Then, at 23, I was listening to Tool in my room and pacing around and was in deep contemplation. And the phrase "Masculine and Feminine principle" jumped into my mind. And I hadn't heard those phrases before. But they felt like something interesting to me. So, I went immediately to Google and typed it in. And I found this woman's blog called Matrignosis. Her name is Jean Raffa and (at the time) she was in her early 70s. And she is a Jungian enthusiast who speaks a lot about Feminine integration... and her experiences with integrating the Feminine. And as I read her blog, I felt like I was reading the work of a 70 year old version of myself. And she was wise and deeply connected to the Feminine. And the struggles she spoke of with her own polarization into the Masculine was so relatable... and I'm sure many women would find it relatable. Then, that was my first effective in-road to the path that leads the deep Feminine. Prior to that I was just looking in ineffective places... first in traditional patriarchal Femininity, which is very man-centered and Masculinity-centered. Then, I looked into Feminist perspectives, which were more helpful... but still very surface level and still very Masculinity-centered. So, finding deeper perspectives to go on the journey was necessary. It's been my main internal journey over the past 16 years.
  27. Multiple leaked emails have now shown Epstein engaging in negotiations on behalf of Israel Jeffrey Epstein Pursued Swiss Rothschild Bank to Finance Israeli Cyberweapons Empire Israeli Spy Stayed for Weeks at a Time With Jeffrey Epstein in Manhattan Jeffrey Epstein and the Mossad: How The Sex-Trafficker Helped Israel Build a Backchannel to Russia Amid Syrian Civil War However despite the mainstream US media giving massive coverage to Epstein and the political fight over releasing files related to them, these leaks have received no coverage from CNN, NYT, and MSNBC. NYT even had to publicly cut ties with Zionist Laurence Summers have other leaked emails showed him asking Epstein for dating advice. The only time it was remotely brought up was on CNN when Dana Bash, a reporter there (an ardent Zionist who previously mocked children being killed in Gaza by saying “at least they’re not being raped” and lied about the only Palestinian member of congress Rashida Tlaibs statement in an interview to accuse her of antisemitism, and refused to apologize after the person who conducted the interview said it was lying) looked visibly angered and challenged Marjorie Taylor Greene for her tweets implying Epstein was involved in Israel. Even more bizarrely, none of this has been refuted or denied. Even Netanyahu himself posted an article on Epsteins connection to Israeli politics, and he had to post a fringe socialist publication because no mainstream outlet is reporting on this.
