  1. Hey, ya'll, I need your help! I want to create a comprehensive list of video examples of prototypical stage Turquoise thinking. This is meant to be an educational tool for people learning about Spiral Dynamics. So towards that end, scour Youtube and find all the videos you can which exhibit stage Turquoise thinking. Try to find videos which are short and sweet. The more diversity we can display here, the better. Try to find examples from various cultures. We will create a mega-thread like this for every stage in the Spiral, from Red to Turquoise. But here, let's just focus on Turquoise. Each week I will start a new mega-thread topic for the next stage. Do not start a political debate in this thread! It is not our goal here to defend our personal political positions or to judge any stage, but simply to compile examples. Thanks for your help! I'm excited to see what kind of juicy stuff you dig up. Try to be selective with your choices. This can turn into a really cool list. Stage Turquoise Values: Consciousness Elevating mankind’s consciousness Truth Deep metaphysical insight Wisdom, the wisdom of nature Mysticism, spirituality, nonduality God, divinity Holism, integration, synthesis vs analysis Integrating all religions & science Left & right brain synthesis Honesty, transparency, authenticity Being vs knowing, doing, having Simplicity, flowing with nature Minimalist sustainable living Collaborative synergy Human wellness Healing at all levels: physical, emotional, spiritual Exploring altered states of consciousness Intuition Channeling: direct downloads from infinite intelligence Supernatural creativity Spiritual purification Awakening, transcendence, liberation Unconditional love, compassion for all Emotional mastery Presence, mindfulness Paradox Esoteric teachings Gratitude Unity Deeper & deeper levels of interconnectedness Selfless living Sacrifice self for greater consciousness Meditation, yoga, contemplation, self-inquiry Not-knowing Humility Spontaneity, playfulness, self-amusement The really big picture Stage Turquoise Examples: Sadhguru, Shunyamurti, Thomas Campbell, Yoda, David Hawkins, Ken Wilber, Shinzen Young, Deepak Chopra, Stan Grof, Osho, Mooji, Ramaji, Rupert Spira, Eckhart Tolle’s A New Earth, Yogananda, Martin Ball, Terence McKenna, Carl Jung, Sri Aurobindo, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, Ervin Laszlo, David Loy, Alan Watts, Wim Hof, Matt Kahn, Dalai Lama, Sasha Shulgin, yoga, holotropic breathwork, The Holographic Universe, Akashic Records, noosphere, opening the 3rd eye, pineal gland, out of body experiences, samadhi experiences, siddhis, paranormal abilities, clairvoyants, channels, mediums, Bashar, Aleister Crowley, Rudolf Steiner, alternative healing systems, Maya, psychedelics, 5-MeO-DMT, StarTrek: The Q, Rupert Sheldrake’s morphogenetic fields, Dean Radin’s paranormal research, Gandhi’s ideas of pluralistic harmony, Gaia, biocentrism, Monroe Institute, Esalen Institute, transpersonal psychology, Jung’s collective unconscious, quantum field theory, sacred geometry, reincarnation, opening chakras, saints, sages, mystics, prophets, etc.
  2. I don't plan to do that. The course will have its own structure and flow different from the retreat, even though similar topics will be covered.
  3. This is false. Putin annexed Crimea years before. He also passed a law annexing 4 Ukrainian provences of Luhansk, Donetsk, and others in the first week of the invasion. It is obvious he would annex all of Ukraine if only he was allowed to. He told Tucker Carslon that Ukraine was never a real sovereign state. In his mind Ukraine does not exist as anything seperate from Russia. Stop doing Putin's dirty work for him. These are shallow excuses to violate internal borders and annex territory. The correct analogy here is if the US invaded Mexico and declared Cancun the 51st US state.
  4. I will also turn that into an online course which will be much more affordable. But that will take time to create and of course the psychedelics you will have to source for yourself.
  5. I will guide you to deconstructing the most core aspects of your worldview so that you can experience various facets of God directly for yourself. It is not about pushing ideas upon you but helping you deconstruct all human constructs so the chemical is then free to show you the rest. We will deconstruct time, space, substance, external world, other, birth, death, humanity, nonduality, sanity, etc.
  6. Nothing needs opening up. Psychedelics already produce higher consciousness than enlightenment. All consciousness is absolute. All appearance is absolute. You keep misunderstanding what Consciousness is through reductionism. No. Consciousness dreams sentient beings. Your position is so silly that you don't even understand that you are more conscious than a dog. Absolutely. They are totally related.
  7. It is not that I hate the word. The word means no private property. Socialism is a very specific thing. You can't have Wall Street and call it socialism.
  8. 4chan is the primoridal ooze from which virtual life monstrosities emerge and crawl out onto land to terrorize and revolt the land-dwellers.
  9. AI stupid, it is not replacing anyone but button-pushers.
  10. She is your mind. Your mind is powerful
  11. I did attend a 2 or 3 day live training. It is certainly more substantial than the online course, but I still prefer actual Kriya yoga. My bias is for hardcore practices. I don't like wasting my time with watered down stuff. If I am going to do yoga I want the full deal, not a half-measure.
  12. No, we can call all those states capitalist, with Sweden and Norway having robust welfare systems. A capitalist state with a welfare system is not socialism. Just be accurate and call for capitalism + robust welfare system, if that's what you want. Do not call that socialism.
  13. It's totally different because the US did not annex Iraq. Putin seeks to annex Ukrainian land and end the existence of Ukraine as a nation. However bad the US is, Bush had no intention of stealing Iraqi land. That's the key difference. Iraq is a sovereign nation. Ukraine will not exist if Putin gets his way. Annexing land violates every international law and principle. If you are annexing another nation's land, that automatically makes you the bad guy. No nation at this point should be annexing anyone else's land. Russia is being held the correct standard all nations today are held to: no annexation.
  14. Of course he think Covid was a hoax. Because Covid lockdowns stopped him from gaming. It's just unconscious survival 101 followed by rationalizations. He does whatever suits his survival. Trump suits his survival because Trump is a con-artist and pickup is con-artistry. If sucking goat dick helped Owen improve his game, he would be for it. This isn't complicated.
  15. Consciousness cannot kill itself. Forms within Consciousness can disappear, but Consciousness itself always absolutely remains. If the human form disappears Absolute Consciousness in which that form appeared still remains. There is no such thing as "non-existence". There is only Existence. Existence is always present even if forms are not present. You can't kill Existence.
  16. You won't find such a list unless I make one. You could make one yourself by inspecting your own mind.
  17. Sounds like the kind of thing a guy like him would do
  18. "Offer", Lol. I offer Tai Lopez a dick on a plate.
  19. Another question that debunks this whole argument that Consciousness does not depend on anything material is Why isn't a dog as conscious as a human? Obviously you understand that a dog is nowhere as conscious as a human. You understand that, right??
  20. In the future, humane lab rat meat for all! I have a dream, where our grandchildren can eat rat burgers without an ounce of guilt.
  21. I've tried all sorts of magnesiums, never felt any one of them.
  22. Well, there is Nothingness. But since there's nothing there it passes in an instant. Only dreams have a sense of time and substance. You escape into nothingness when you sleep but you don't even feel it since there's nothing to feel.
  23. Depends on what you mean by "escape". There's really no escape, only a change of scenery. You can escape certain kinds of scenery.
  24. You might as well ask why God designed it that a chainsaw to your head will kill you. How come a chainsaw is able to kill consciousness?
