Memory = imagination

Working great. Is this is a joke? Without government intervention black people would still be lynched and caged.

Lol Notice how stuck your mind is on this. Don't blame your stuckness on me.

@Brahman Nice! Thanks for the write-up.

@Plip That's why when you run a scientific experiment you should only change one variable at a time. Now you have to test it again while controlling all the other variables. 5-MeO is super potent by itself. Stop mixing it with other shit.

It's got some healthy Blue in there too.

But this is always a possibility whether ones films their awakening process or not. It's just that when it isn't filmed, no one knows about it.

It's okay. You are right where you need to be. Just keep chipping away at Love.

Your ideas of Green are overly simplistic. Google is a great example of highly nerdy people being Green. Facebook employees recently protested against Zuckerberg's policies. Clearly that protest was from a Green standpoint.

Many employees at Facebook skew Green. Bay Area is pretty Green culturally.

Awakening comes in many degrees. He may have some mild, early version of it. Obviously he will need years to mature and this is his process.

Sitting with the suffering, feeling it mindfully, rather than trying to escape it, avoid it, hide it, distract from it, or numb it out. And contemplating the root of your suffering.

I remember when eBay allowed anyone to leave feedback on a user's account without even making a purchase. My account got hit with negative feedback from my competitors to steal my business. The early days of any business are the wild wild west. There are no rules until we invent them. Devils will always exploit complex systems in novel ways. That's what devils are bred to do.

Why you putting such a negative frame on it? Even if everyone is hurt that doesn't mean anything bad. It presents even more of an opportunity for you to grow yourself into a loving conscious being and to help heal others by leading by example with your love. This is FEAR! Notice that. Let it go and choose Love instead. Which means that you have the opportunity to greatly help them.

Careful with the negative stereotypes. Many hard-working Greens around.

I like Scarborough because he has a nice character arc. He used to be very Blue and then Orange and now he's starting to see the light of Green, but he's still got plenty of Orange and Blue left. His development is a microcosm of American culture's arc. The pendulum is starting to swing Green but it's not fully Green yet and it doesn't fully understand what's going on at the meta level with all the various stages, so it gets self-righteous (as Joe does above) without realizing the true complexity of issues that Facebook and Zuckerberg face. Blaming Zuckerberg for Facebook is a cute move, but it's don't really grasp the depth of problems we face. But Joe is an example of an evolved and reasonable conservative. Anyhow... I love to see all this evolution happening! We live in rapidly evolving times!

The problem is that it isn't pure. I would look for mushrooms or LSD. You live so close to Netherlands.

It is genuine FOR HIM. It's his way. Keep in mind that the process of awakening, if actually filmed, will look very different -- much more messy and incoherent -- than some interview with Eckhart Tolle or Osho 30 years after the fact. Now that we have YouTube, more and more awakening processes will be filmed in real-time. And they will not look pretty or be grounded like some enlightened master sitting on a pedestal. It's gonna look a lot more "real". By which I mean, you're going to see the ego-mind acting out and airing its delusions. That is real. That's part of the process. Especially for young and immature people.

This issue isn't about individuals. It's about complex and subtle systemic issues. Culture, collective ego, etc. This cannot be solved by telling individuals to act better.

Not for me. But people are different and lots of things are possible.

It's foolish to compare cities and rural areas because they present very different governing challenges. Governing a giant, interconnected city like Chicago is much more challenging than governing some rural country town like Midland Texas. Giants cities are highly diverse culturally. Small towns are mono-cultures. Simplistic policies may work well in Midland Texas but they will not scale at all to a city like Chicago. Taking into account complexity, diversity, and scale is crucial. Of course these are notions far beyond the heads of most right-wingers. And if you want to play the blame game, liberal cities are far economically successful than small conservative country towns. Most of American's economic power and taxes come from big diverse complex liberal cities. It's no accident that all the biggest cities are liberal. They have to be in order to handle the diversity and not rip themselves apart. This one point shows that liberalism is a more evolved version of conservativism. If Midland Texas ever reaches the population size, diversity, and complexity of Chicago, it will become as liberal as Chicago.

There is no such thing as "real" justice. There are various forms of it depending on your level of consciousness and development. Blue justice is very real and important. It is stern law and order type of justice. It's more masculine in flavor. A lot of the court and legal system is from stage Blue. Police. Military. etc. Green justice is more hippie and feminine in flavor. It's softer, more compassionate, less authoritarian, less punishing. Conservative justice vs liberal justice.

I'm not sure what they mean. People can experience Oneness in various ways. Personally I wouldn't call my awakenings explosions. Maybe if you smoke a large dose it could feel that way as it hits you like a freight train. My awakenings are usually more cerebral.

If you actually turned into a kangaroo, you'd think you've gone insane. We put such people into insane asylums.
