I've discovered this channel a while back, interesting ocontent, could have been one of the users here in the past:

@Majed Pretty good share. Just reading, meditating, and exercising, and resting more leads to a more grounded and healthy conservative. Also helps to unplug from Tik Tok and other similar social media, and only use social media with clear intent and design to improve you life, 1% at a time.

@aurum I think you need to make one more distinction: Online political variants vs IRL political variants. Very key difference is that the online progressive left lack common sense, and are so stuck in tier one thinking, and so stuck in their bubble they actually cannot empathize nor understand correctly their oppositional ideology.

@aurum , @Arcangelo , @Gesundheit2 and @StarStruck , Fascism is just basically you having an idea of fascia, which the name of the system of tendons and ligaments mostly around your body and musculature. They are also integral to how your body moves to begin with, and a crucial part, besides the muscle system and nervous system, in generating tension via FLEXING. This also involves a field of science, and scientists who are obsessed with facia are also called Fascists, and some of the old school body builders, Bruce Lee, Rocky Marciano, some of the most gifted men in strength and a few in speed and explosive movement, were the first pioneers, the first Fascists to engage with the FLEXING in the mirror, and maximizing the GENETIC POTENTIAL OF TENDONS AND MUSCLE, naturally, prior to steroid use. Just ask @Carl-Richard if you don't believe me, the human body is AMAZING. Of course, not the other Fascism, that one sucks, but the FLEXING Fascism is important for fitness and athletics!

@vindicated erudite I think the political climate of your country is shifting. Brexit seemed like a bad idea, but it's predicted that the UK, despite the economic hardships brought on by the Corona V, and the Russia/Ukraine conflict and the grain shortage, if they get trade deals from other foreign countries, they can manage, and even save enough money and taxes compared to the EU. In fact before Brexit the UK was having some cuts and debts to EU, and not getting more out of the trade deal. They also really don't like the pound changing to Euros because that gives the EU more leverage to control the UK's political interests by threatening economic sanctions. Well, very hard to impose economic sanctions when there's two types of currencies.

@StarStruck What if I don't want a short term relationship?

@Gesundheit2 I'm fine if me calling him a Zen devil makes me a Zen devil as I'm not perfect in my insights and my spiritual development and paranormal/supernatural stuff. I'm calling him that because he's mistaken in assuming Buddhism and Neo Advaita are above infinite. NOPE.

@Matthew85 That still doesn't justify him spewing conflations between @Leo Gura's spiritual teachings with Buddhism and Advaita. He's also mixing up other western ideas with eastern concepts. By me calling him a Zen Devil, if you don't know what that means check out Leo's video on Zen devils, he mentions them in his spirituality videos and the ten Ox herding pictures. Also, by me calling Frank Yang a Zen Devil, I'm referring to him, again, conflating Leo Gura insights as if they're below traditional Enlightenment when that clearly not the case, the infinite insights from psychedelics are way more in magnitude and depth deeper and broader than any mainstream means. JUST NO. Typical Neo Advaita madness.

@How to be wise That could be an interesting possibility for sure.

@Hardkill That's exciting, maybe the Republicans or even Trump can take advantage of that scenario.

@Jacob Morres Yeah, just going from number and statistics in the past, most will likely not vote for Marianne Williamson that much, if already 50% of the population voted for Trump, and the rest voted for Biden. Very little vote for progressives. We need a progressive Trump character if we want to see many more votes for a progressive, but they can't play that game without undermining their ideology as well. Tough spot.

@How to be wise So true, if you're too left leaning you won't be popular in the mainstream.

@martins name But, at least for most, when they know you're practicing ACIM they think you got something to hide, or are guilty of something, or is a pervert needing forgiveness for some addiction, or something else. Of course, when some of those people look into ACIM and Marianne Williamson they'll be a bit more understanding but majority don't know ACIM and are operating from narratives told of her by their political media outlet which can be biased and distorts what actually is the truth.

@Gesundheit2 After watching the video, I intuitively felt that this Frank Yang guy, is quite frankly a ZEN DEVIL.

@caesar13 Gym is interesting. If you look at the history, and think holistically based on the stages of development, cognitive and moral development, personality types and traits, states of being, life experiences and other lines of development in various areas of life, and ideological indoctrination most people go through that informs their entire worldview, then the development of fitness, athleticism and gyms becomes more interesting. For example, one point most western gyms lacked complex resistance machines, dumbbells, fancy rope bands, and other pieces of equipment with progression in mind. It used to mostly be barbells, and weighted plates, which dictated the types of workouts possible, which are mainly compound exercises, some gyms had racks with bars to do maybe body weight exercises like pull ups and their variations. This limit to technological development, with the tool sets (barbells, weighted plates, racks) informed the incentive to value certain types of fitness routine, which made old school versions of powerlifting, strongman and body building possible and valuable by the technological epoch of that time. Then, with the invention of steroids, and enough capitalism, came the fitness industry that capitalized on artificial supplements and diet, and advertising their additional equipment because look at the other body builders using steroids, and the muscular results, which then created more incentive to pursue that type of fitness program, and soon it became less popular to keep on doing old school types of fitness programs in favor for faster, newer results, which has it's own knock on effects to various areas of life going forward. Personally, I don't go as much as I've figured out my own fitness training, but gym is useful if you have specific goals and targets for your physical training routine. Also, if you are the type with procrastination/laziness issues, or other negative emotions/states/thinking, then the gym environment can be used and leveraged by you to commit to your training.

@axiom I don't want to get into a syntax/semantics argument, so I'll say that, IF I CAN HOLD AND PLACE SINGULAR FOCUS ON AN OBJECT/THOUGHT AT WILL, THEN IT'S POSSIBLE. Maybe very few in the entire world can because of how social media/ Tik Tok corroded focusing ability nowadays, but I can, I've been doing concentration exercises with Crysty and meditating and we both can. Maybe you can't, or have a lower skill development? It does take time, but it's possible to hold a thought for longer times.

@UnbornTao Amazing share. I just have a few questions for you. Is it okay to compare yourself to those who are lower, equal or greater in skill than yourself, not out of resentment? Like consciously comparing yourself instead of unconsciously doing it? Also, if we did apply this, do some of us run the risk of burnout/over working, workaholic? What if the chosen field we dedicate and commit to, we find out roughly half way that actually we wanted this specific area instead?

@mr_engineer Are you going to share your link for that feedback?

@martins name If Marianne Williamson is stage Turquoise, why did she practice A Course In Miracles? What is she trying to forgive and confess in her past? Makes her look suspect and not like a saint or angel. Maybe she was naughty, and wants to confess and be free of her sins or something?

@martins name I don't think Marianne Williamson is stage Turquoise, I think she's a little bit of stage yellow, then good chunk of stage green and orange, some stage blue and very few values below. I think you mostly can't skip past stage yellow into stage turquoise man. I think you're conflating your chakra systems experiences with Spiral Dynamics stages of development. If you think Ken Wilbur is wrong, despite being majority stage yellow and green, with some spiritual development, why?

@Osaid That's what I really love about consciousness, how it's 'sticky' when it encounters some perspectives that are somehow very interesting. It's like juggling or multi tasking but in a mind, it's like if you're in a swimming pool and you had to make and maintain a whirlpool at both sides.

@Gesundheit2 Similarly to me, if I come across an interesting video, I watch it mostly till it's finished, think it over, and maybe share. Although I rarely share with anyone Actualized.org or any self help videos, I hoard them to myself until I rally trust the other person with this information. Sometimes, when I watch a movie, I partly think and become the characters, or one of them, in my life. What happened to your green tag? Stepped down from moderating? Did you put a good word in about me?

@martins name Okay, name a few in Leo's list that doesn't embody stage turquoise. What Ken's meaning, is contained within integral theory, in the book. Do you have the book?

@Emerald Fair enough, I am not familiar with Mariam Webster, so I used an analogy that made sense to me to compare her to. If she can make it to the generals, maybe. I've learned my lesson with the political drama for the past 6 years, so I'm skeptical and remain centrist and not hoping for too much if she win or if Biden remains in office. Maybe Obama may make a return or not if Biden can't. Last resort, Donald Trump announces his run or president once again, maybe riles up all the political parties to get in gear too.

@martins name I think you could be misinterpreting @Leo Gura 's take of stage Turquoise. He never had stated explicitly that stage turquoise was spiritual development, but was a very high value system for a person and group to reach, and instead implied a very high spiritual development. I also don't think that's what Ken Wilbur meant.
