Of course, I would file that under the body system or ecological system, depending on if its micro or macro. Yeah, solar system is definitely a system.
-
Well known systems are easier to learn about for beginners since there is already alot of information about them, to my knowledge there is not much to find about "Spiritual seeking systems" unless you want to start a new sub-field.

So name one.

I like minimalism, it makes me appreciate the I have stuff more funnily enough. I havent gone hardcore minimalist yet, but I want to try someday.

I feel like his flavor is more philosophical rather than New Agey. But hes so broad that some New Agey concepts are bound to show up sometimes. -

How is this even a question. -

Youre probably split between identifying with your religious mother and your own needs. So you get a sexual need, orgasm and then "become" your mother and beat yourself up for it. I usually dont like Freud but this is a case where it sounds like your Id and Super Ego are in conflict. Work on yourself psychologically like the others have said. Is it a weakness to want to breath too? To want to eat? What makes sexual drive so special? Why is it so bad?

Dont play dumb. You know exactly what that quote means. Its a finger pointing to something, dont stare at the finger.

It takes an extreme amount of meditation to reach those states and they probably wont last. Meditation is important, dont get me wrong, but its a tool, for deeply hidden biases there are better tools. Deconstructing thought patterns helped me overcome social anxiety, so I know this works first hand.
-
Meditation has never helped me change my core beliefs, Shadow Work and Deconstruction is better for that, radical honesty and questioning of the mind.

Its circumstantial, we have to look at it case by case. Sometimes things are obviously racist and we should call that out, other times its more messy. The problem is that racism is getting more hidden and dogwhistly which narrows anti-racists focus too, what is racist today wasnt as racist 20 years ago, and thats good, we need to become more conscious, but conscious doesnt mean witchhunts, conscious means education and changing the culture, for example, how is Hollywood portraying Arabs in their movies?
-
I think racism lies on a spectrum, you can be extremely racist or you can be unconciously slightly racist, for example, sometimes if I see an Arab man on the train I will think "terrorist?" and feel a teensy bit nervous but at the same time I know its because I have been taught this by post 9/11 culture, I dont make a big story out of it, I just let myself feel it and move on with my day, I dont think its possible to eradicate your bias 100%, not in this climate, were way too underdeveloped for that. But its important to do Shadow Work on racism, if you are afraid to be racist and get triggered when someone calls you out and constantly have to put up a front of being the good guy you probably have some hidden biases you havent worked out.

Great examples, dont be afraid to post clips. I like this quote by Mandela "When I walked out of that prison I realized if I didnt let go of my anger and resentment I would still be in prison."
