I'm no fan of polyamory. I think it's mostly delusion. I'm just saying there are serious challenges to monogamy. Not that you can't do it.

He did that long ago in his previous books: Integral Psychology and Integral Spirituality. That's such a trivial difference. - - - - - Anyway, if I find a new juicy model I will cover it. But I don't know of any right now.

No. It's beyond your choice or will. You do not have this kind of control that you imagine. You can't choose a salvia state. You can't even imagine it or think it. It's completely beyond you. That's the crazyiness of psychedelics. There's no alternative to them. You can't huff and puff and fake your way there. It's very hard to get an answer to that question. I have not gotten it.

What does he say that's new?

Ambition is just a core personality trait. In that case it doesn't have any satisfaction or end. Ambition means you want the best, the biggest, the most significant, the perfect. You want to be the best in the world at something so its own sake. Like, you want to be best and biggest bank robber in the world. Of course ambition can also be fueled by various negative problems in the psyche like not receiving enough love, feeling fundamentally inadequate or unlovable, needing endless narcissistic supply, getting high on fame or power, megalomania, needing a sense of meaning to avoid facing the meaningless of life and your own death, childhood trauma, etc. Or, you could just be driven to do the most good in the world because you want to live the best life possible. And doing the most good requires having lots of power, wealth, and influence. If you really wanted to improve the world, you would earn billions and then use it to fund philanthropic projects.

Won't he be smeared as an evil globalist banker? Isn't Canada due for a stupid populist who drinks maple syrup and wears a hockey jersey?

I plan to cover some of Wilber's work. But his stages are basically just Spiral Dynamics with different names, so there's not much to say there. I will just address morality and empathy independently, without appeals to models. I have moved away from models because they are too limiting for where we need to go. The people who create these models are not intelligent enough to understand the highest stages, with the exception of Wilber.

The notion you're looking for is AMBITION. What's required is Ambition. Which is different than having a gun to your head. But of course having a gun to your head can be highly motivating. But that motivation will die as soon as you work your way out from the gun.

It's actually very important to recognize that people have hugely different needs for variety and new experience in general. Most people are not creative nor innovative because their mind is satisfied with the same old things. Such people can work in a factory and be satified. These kind of minds tend to be conservative and closed. If I had to work in a factory, I would rather just kill myself. Some minds are built for lifelong monogamy and others aren't. This is not commonly understood. You have to understand who you are. Guys who are into pickup have super high sex drives. Freakishly high. Which is not me, btw. If you guys think I have a high sex drive you don't understand what high sex drive is. If I had their kind of sex drive I could not do my work. It's challenging for someone with a low sex drive to understand someone with a high sex drive.

I will have a comprehensive video on what creates success. Those principles are what gets you to a millionaire and beyond. It's not about the money. It's about your attitude towards work, business, and life.

No. That's not of interest to me. And anyone who needs it explained to them how to become a billionaire will never become one. To be a billionaire you have to be able to figure out very difficult problems all on your own with no one else to lead you. A billionaire is paid for his leadership, vision, and ability to solve impossible problems. No one can teach you this. Either you got this in your bones or you don't.

Yeah. It's an excellent film.

Sounds like you guys are so boring that you could be happily married to a loaf of white bread. My mistake. Never assume.

It's not ultimate truth. It's just very basic proper epistemology. It doesn't makes sense to you why I say the things I say because I have to uphold the highest epistemic standard in order to reach the highest understandings of Consciousness. You do not understand how sensitive this matter is. You think that you will understand God with your sloppy epistemology. You will reach some level of God. But not nearly the highest. I understand that and you do not. Which is why I am so strict about these matters. If you understood what your epistemology is losing you, you would understand why I am the way I am. This seems arrogant of me, but the bottom line is that I understand things which other people do not. Of course you can't know if I'm full of shit or whatever. But that doesn't change what I must do to uphold the highest epistemic standard. It is my job to set the highest epistemic standard on Earth. This will not feel kind to people. And it will not be clear to almost anyone why I am so serious about it. Because people honestly believe that they will be able to reach God through any old half-assed standard. My goal is to free your mind of every human corruption. No spiritual teacher has this goal. Do not assume that it's all the same. It's not the same. My vision for this work is nothing like any other spiritual teaching. Even if you access God through other spiritual teachings -- which of course you can -- it is not the same as what I'm trying to lead people to. And nobody understands this but me. I'm in a position where I have to create it for mankind. And there's no way for you to know if I'm full of shit or not. If you assume that all spiritual teachings lead to same place, then my actions don't make any sense.

This guy clearly has no clue what God/Love is: These Christian intellectuals are buffoons.

That's a good comparison. Trying eating the same 1 food for 30 years. Let us know how that goes.

I'm not gonna assume that any of these people knows what God is. See, if you really understood God, you wouldn't need to cling to Christianity. You'd drop it as an unnecessary limitation upon your mind. The fact that you need to defend a religion shows that you do not understand the epistemic damage it does to the mind. Just because you cite some smart intellectuals means nothing about the damage that Christianity has done to hundreds of millions of minds. Chris Langan does not have enough intelligence to understand that Trump is pure corruption. His IQ means nothing to me. It does not matter how smart any of these people appear. Says nothing at all about their grasp of Consciousness.

That's fine, but that doesn't mean anything about today's Christians realizing what God is. You mean a MAGA conspiracy theorist?

So Justin Bieber

That's actually an open question for me. I have no idea what tax complexities exist between gov departments. It's not unfathomable that some kind of taxes are paid. But it's an arcane point that shouldn't matter to policy issues any of those right-wingers care about.

I don't know what you mean by that. It's consciousness appreciating some part of itself. Intelligence is not a reaction, it's something consciousness can do. It tke intelligec t makke snse of dis sntenc. It's not clear what you mean.

You are the sole authority. I shared thousands of good sources with you. What teacher shares as many diverse sources with you as I have? Name him.

It's the same nonsense when atheists ask, Why call it God? Because when you realize it, you will scream out: It's LOVE!!!!!!!!! Go pick up a table fork. Look at it closely. That's Love.

A demon pooed on my windshield.

I'm not saying it's inevitable. Just a problem worth respecting.
