@Cortex No, it's just you saying things you think.

@Arthur Oh I see, thanks for the explanation

@Cortex This is double win only for your ego, you yourself are dogmatic, there is no difference between you and the people you are blaming.

@Arthur How come monks are exceptions? They are people like us. I actually feel like you cannot really grow without increasing your consciousness first, these two go hand in hand in my opinion.

@Cortex In my opinion, it sounds like horror... Going into someone's head, just to make him fit into the croud, it's actually disgusting, people have to make progress by themselves, don't you think? The damage this could actually cause... Also, this is only one part of blue and all the stages can become ideological and self-decepted to a certain degree.

What Eckhart Tolle is describing in this video - thought being trapped in itself - basically happened to me (and many others most likely) It was mostly caused by this categorizing everything into stages... It became almost useless and also annoying after some time, be careful about that

@Hero of Time Some of the things that for example your orange side is saying sound very helpful to grasp in my opinion Don't forget, that you can be in different colours in different lines of development. For example, my education line was yellow, but my thinking line was still orange, so I had to meditate more.

@Hero of Time I see, did you think about distinguishing healthy and unhealthy orange?

@Hero of Time Why did you decide to colour the paragraphs?

@Marinus Oh I see, that sucks shit. Good luck, I hope it will make your practice more effective at least.

@Consept I actually did finish it, it's a great book I think that if you combine spiritual growth with the advice from that book, your overall enthusiasm in conversations might look more genuine. I have this entrepreneur friend, who probably reads that book everyday, he would be extremely excited like all the time, it's as if he was high, but it doesn't seem authentic... We are lucky to be able to combine these two...

@GenuinePerspectiveXC You are acting stage blue now

@Marinus Oh I see, thanks man. (should I feel sorry? I kinda don't feel any emotion coming from you + your situation is kind of two faced xD)

@GenuinePerspectiveXC Don't turn black and white thinking into beige, purple, red, blue, orange, green, yellow and turquoise thinking Human psyche is more complex than that.

@How to be wise That makes a lot more sense He is funny.

@Toby I understand what you mean, you first have to know the rules before trying to bend them in a good way, right? I've never played a musical instrument, so I don't really now what it's like to train... But can't you just learn your 1 favourite song for fun? I think you definitely can, therefore I don't really resonate with this approach to the Spiral. Discipline and precision is a healthy blue in my opinion though

No

@Toby What do you mean by that?

@Shin Love you man

@AleksM Thanks buddy!

@Consept Don't read that book to much though, there are certain people, who would just completely crush your hand when you give them a handshake and use your name in every sentence they say, you probably know what I mean

@Marinus I'm on day 10 now, having next to no cravings, I literally have to go deep into the fantasy world to feel anything, there are only positive effects, my meditation is way more effective. But when do these problems come? I mean, blue balls and pain is kind of scary, how do you deal with it, is it ok?

It hit my eyes the first time I saw him, his body language is indeed very weird, but I don't understand psychosis...

@lmfao This extraversion vs. introversion problem is interesting... Many people mistake extraversin for neediness to be around people and introversion for social anxiety, which is obviously unhealthy. I think of all people as ambiverts (can be both), because most of the time, it is about whether the other person is giving you space in the conversation and also another big aspect is whether you can actually be honest in the conversation and express yourself. In bigger groups, you cannot really express yourself that much and you have to be careful about what you say a bit more... But this doesn't apply to everyone obviously, it's just my perspective

@Ampresus Why should I be bothered by this problem of yours?
