  1. pretty concerning . . . . Our civilisation is highly unbalanced. The geo-politics of the next 20 years is going to get real ugly, real quick.

  3. @Apparition of Jack there are no demons here, just Creation.
  4. The above advice from @Annoynymous is gold. I'm not sure how old you are, how you are mentally or the depth of your situation. I wrote out a big thing about my fucked up situation with my mother at the moment, but I don't think it is applicable to yourself or the advice you seek so I shan't post it. But here is the end summary of my advice. What watching my father smoke and drink himself to death taught me is that some people can't be helped. Disintegration often happens much faster than imagined and some things have to simply be observed, lived with and embraced as they are. Often you can know how to help someone, you can give them a step by step, hour by hour guide of what they need to do, and help them to understand such . . and they won't do it. Doesn't mean you can't or shouldn't try to help her. But children banging their heads against the wall in an attempt to save their parents, for an ending that was always coming is a very common happening. It is good to keep mind that this isn't rare, that it is a part of cognitive development that the "newer" "more advanced" more knowledgable mindset looks back at the older and often emotionally suffers in that process. Growing pains of a sort. Often different people grow in different ways (especially different generations) and it is okay for people to seperate, either partly, or fully. I don't know you, or her, but perhaps she is fine and doesn't want nor need what you want or need? I'm not saying she does or doesn't. But it is a good question one might ask themselves if they wanted to. The first section of this lecture is a little, somewhat applicable I feel. Leo talks about a woman who doesn't fully grasp all she could be.

  6. That is a good long-term vision and plan. It takes real skill and awareness to do so mindfully and with care. Two great books: * It's not about the money - Brent Kessel * Good Business - Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
  7. All of One is Creation. God creates so it can experience. What is, experience itself, is Joy & Love. That means an ape, a human, any mammalian animal that is designed a specific way, is to be experienced as such. Biological life has no free will, everything is flowing, and if a person is in the mindset of wanting to explore ones body, to hone that and actualize its potential with mindful, conscious joy and love . . . That is One's creation. That is spirituality. Mindful, conscious exploration of One within our limited view of reality, from our sensory, relative perspective of the absolute. A Human Being Even if a person is an unconscious bodybuilder solely driven by negative motivations such as low self-esteem and a Stage Red need for domination and egoic security . . . that is One. That was designed specifically to Be. Of course evolution is moving in a certain direction, which is neurological development, psychological maturity and functional social interdependence through compassionate mutual benefit. Nonetheless, the tyranical egoic physically power hungry ape/human is One, is Love. What we need as a species that was designed to move and work cooperatively, is mindful, enlightened health education and exploration. If one wants to play football or dance solely for ones own enjoyment, that can be a mindful, spiritual practice of embodying Christ Consciousness through human form. But what if one becomes that and then proactively spread such joy through mindful, high consciousness marketing, business and teaching? Creating a ripple effect that enables humanity to flourish? Now thats a spiritual life purpose of worth I think. A beautiful example of such I'll post below. Not from a stage yellow or turquoise perspective. But still . . . a beautiful example of physical potential and value profusion. If a person has had a life experience that hasn't enabled physical flourishment, that has led them to being very cognitive and intellectual, that is also One's artistic creation and to be experienced fully in all its joy and love. I think this forum, Leo and most of his followers fall into this catagory so its great to see and share some athletic thoughts and posts. Self-Actualization is about creating mindful balance among the whole foundation of ones life I feel.
  8. @Stretch extinction rebellion is actually a stage yellow movement, at least in design This is what my initial query above was pointing at. One or two or ten people within the whole. Tier 2 of the spiral is less than 1% of the whole. I was pleasantly surprised to hear Gail was observing and probing from a "higher" perspective. Thank you for your additional comment. I shall look into Regenerative Culture as I've not heard of it before. I haven't listened to the whole Russel and Gail podcast the clip was taken from. Plan to do so when free. Since you say you're an "insider" of sorts would you be able to link me to one or two video/lecture/discussions from ERebellion or on Regenrative Culture that you value and feel cuts through the noise please? I'd appreiate such as it would save me hours of wasted time if you have them saved and on hand to share Failing that, I shall continue to browse on me own. @DrewNows Haha.

  12. Just came here to post her talking about Spiral Dynamics. She speaks as though she is working from above Stage Green as a Spiral Wizard of sorts which is very interesting. I wasn't expecting such when I clicked on the video. She has started a movement based vastly on, or at best, pushing, Green ideals and values in an attempt to move "green people" into action through the necessity of our dire situation. The question I have is do you all think she is knowingly working with what she has to work with or do you think she has assessed herself higher than her level of development and is pushing at buttons she doesn't understand from a needy egoic place of survival? You mentioned the youtube comment section. Vastly undeveloped impetuous comments from stage red, blue, orange and maybe green mindsets. Wouldn't pay it much mind. I asked the question above, which in itself is impetuous, because one can't judge her on thats short clip, nor on her stumble of an explanation and sharing of herself in such a short, on camera, live on air, segment. Nonetheless I still wonder what others think? Spiral Wizard?! or Survival Hippy!?! Wonder if she's read David Loys Ecodharma? I wonder if she has watched Leo's lectures on Love, Fear, Conscious Politics etc etc. This is the sort of Stage Green that makes up the vast amount of Extinction Rebellion.
  13. I created this set of links and shared it via reddit on the Nosurf subreddit some time back. Thought I'd share here with everyone. Content is dualistic, but truly gold nonetheless. Our society needs this content. Even this yt channel speaking at this level is beyond alot of humanity right now. Spiral Wizards could be Flowing with the Grind more
  14. @Matt23 If someone is Stage Purple in the first world they are extremely naive and very rare. They would most likely be within the third world. Such a person needs basic education and a view of functional government, politics, larger geopolitical systems. Basically, an internet connection, computer, a working skull and the education to understand what one sees. Stage Red needs the above along with education on emotions, psychology, shadow work and the like. Broadly and roughly speaking there are two kinds of Stage Red. Narcissistic Tyrants and Self-Oppressed drug addicts, alcoholics and the like. Both need help understanding themselves and the systems that they are but a small cog within which will help them become more compassionate and in the latter case, sober up, enabling them to become a functioning proficient part of the society that they are currently leeching from. One can be Stage Red solely on a financial basis. Scarcity helps promote ill mental health and neediness. Education around money and typical self help work that enables garnering of financial safety is a foundational step in ones development. If someone needs therepy and help from others and such is accessible to them, they should/could embrace it. The problem is latently developed people fear such help and often have to be coaxed into it all slowly. You're here seeking answers of your own accord so you're already on the path to understanding my friend Follow the process and be patient. It all compounds and we can all flourish faster than we first think. * Radical Honesty by Brad Blanton * Emotional Intelligence by Daniel Goleman * Seeds of Your Success by Eben Pagan (expensive course, but you'll find it somewhere if you search)
  15. Yep It is beautiful. Flow and Echo. Your Aztec Non-Duality video really helped with this. Understanding Conscious Creation on a conceptual level and then attempting to execute such from a limited sub-system, relative human perspective fills and drives me with passion and joy. Teotl's artistry is a fucking honor to flow with. There is so much self help, business, developmental psychology etc etc information currently available that one could spend the next tens years pouring oneself into it and still have juice left over to squeeze and integrate. Bald Yoga is dropping gold no one else is dropping. It would be more valuable for the whole spiral and Leo himself if he perhaps just pointed people in the direction of such content and focused on his higher teachings? It would be more valuable for the whole spiral if we Ourselves took up the torch of creation and Spiral Wizardy and became teachers to the whole by pushing out Self Actualization content. This
