  1. You can't avoid the truth of the matter. What the scientist needs to realize is that all science is mediated through subjective experience and that it could not be otherwise. To skip over this point is the crux of problem. This is a giant epistemic oversight on their part. The subjectivity of science is the elephant in the room that no scientist wants to acknowledge. The very belief that science is objective is itself a subjective belief! Science is objective because one imagines it to be so.
  2. These shootings are an expected phenomena of a hyper materialistic society. As stage Orange runs its course, the limitations of Blue/Orange will become more and more apparent in the form of these kinds of ego backlashes. But this shines collective awareness on the problem, which will ultimately lead to its resolution and a transition into a stage Green society. Banning guns will not be enough to resolve this. What's necessary is to make society more fair and to provide more opportunities and social support for alienated people. It's an alienation problem. Alienated, nihilistic, depressed, angry, impoverished, poorly-socialized, and sexually frustrated people adopt radical and violent ideologies. Same as in the Middle East. As stage Orange becomes more and more excessive and unhealthy, alienation will increase, violence and radicalism will increase. When people lack a proper spiritual connection to life, they become hopeless and turn to drugs, sex, exploitation of others, and nationalist ideologies. This is why it's important to foster a sense of community and to help those who are in bad shape. Because if they are not helped, they will not simply suffer silently by themselves, they will lash out at the world. These shootings are really a cry for help. Society is failing not only the victims of these shootings, but the shooters especially. The shooters are lashing out because they don't have proper channels for getting the love they want in healthy ways. And of course Trump is pouring gasoline on this problem because he epitomizes toxic Orange while goading on Blue and demonizing Green.
  3. @Enizeo You just have to be curious about it. I don't not sure there's a mechanical method to it. If your curiosity is lacking, then it won't go anywhere. For me it's just spontaneous.
  4. You do not appreciate the historical context of 600 AD Arabia. Mohammad was not just a spiritual leader, he was also a political leader. And of course I don't think Mohammad was the most enlightened guy.
  5. The free market has proven that private health insurance is a scam. All advanced democracies except the US have public healthcare systems that work. This is just a no brainer to people who live in those countries. Medicare works great for seniors. Now just imagine that expanded to everyone.
  6. I don't do weed so my opinion on it isn't worth much.
  7. Green cities will be expensive cause people like to live there.
  8. Stage Green is all about building community. You ain't being very original. People have been saying that shit for 2000 years.
  9. @Vignesh Pagadala Name one thing which isn't highly grounded in subjectivity.
  10. VW CEO in prison now for his devilry. It takes an exceptional amount of corporate devilry for a CEO to end up in prison.
  11. If only Volkswagen cars emitted nothing
  12. Generally speaking, if mood goes up, it must come down. And since its all relative, you will perceive any drop in mood from its peak as a terrible thing. Your mind cannot evaluate absolute values of mood, only relative changes. So to jump from 50 to 100 and then back down to 50 is perceived the same as dropping from 50 to 0.
  13. @Extreme Z7 The ultimate irony is that Trump inherited $400 million from daddy and lost it all in terribly mismanaged business deals. Trump's wealth is a total con. But stage Orange doesn't care. To stage Orange, the appearance of wealth is as valid as actual wealth and it doesn't matter to stage Orange that his wealth was acquired through white collar crime and various kinds of exploitative schemes. Stage Orange just wants that golden toilet, damn the costs. To stage Orange, success = truth.
  14. That's totally predictable. Stage Orange is attracted to Trump's phony materialistic success, his phony business acumen, his phony masculinity, his vulgarity, and his giving an F.U. to stage Green. Libertarian types are attracted to that like flies to shit. I had a stage Orange coaching client about 3 years ago and he looked up to Trump as his role-model. When I asked him why, he said because Trump has a beautiful wife, the kind of trophy wife he'd like to have. This reveals the level of depth of stage Orange minds. Stage Orange does not understand the shallowness and self-defeating nature of materialism and capitalism. Stage Orange has made materialism its God. Sports cars, luxury condos, hot women, and millions of dollars are their vision of heaven.
  15. Yes, I have, but all of that takes precious time and energy that I could put towards shooting more videos, creating more courses, and writing books. I might do some of those things in the future, but it's not a high priority. The problem with meeting people in person is that it's a lot of hassle and my reach becomes very small.
  16. Not quite. Enlightenment is the recontextualization of "experience" into Being/Absolute Truth. The raw data of perception doesn't change, it just gets recontextualized, reinterpreted. So your coffee table still looks like a coffee table but it is no longer a coffee table, it is recognized to be the mind of God.
  17. Of course. That's classic stage Blue patriarchy. Woman's role is to make babies and run the kitchen.
  18. Awesome! Those are some deep insights. Proud of ya You are finally starting to understand the depth of it.
  19. No, every experience is also a state of consciousness.
