This is a very interesting discussion. Part cringe, part crazy and part meta. Let me know what you make of this: https://youtu.be/dj79XbfM9LU

@Preety_India Of course any place needs some moderation. Anyone who owns a garden and dealt with weeds knows how quickly they grow.

@AndylizedAAY Yes, it's like unless you've had a haunting or some other paranormal event involving some entity, it's very difficult to relate or empathize with some who do experience the paranormal.

@A Fellow Lighter Thanks. I did one time in my childhood had a PlayStation 1 game that had Casper I think she's living off of some of my energy, which is most likely from my attention to her. However, this is not 100% certain, as she seems to be also using different sources of energies as well from what I can tell so far, still learning more. She's not completely a disembodied spirit/soul, as she sometimes shares a room in my mind, and appears besides me from time to time. I'm not sure if it's karmic energy, but not dismissing that could also be another part of her energy use. I'm sure I'm part of her generative energy as most people didn't have a reaction when she was pranking other people, but some I know who are empaths or have this higher intuition, do react weakly to her actions, like they look at her general direction but couldn't tell that she was poking their forehead for example, or tapping their shoulder. She seems, from what she told me so far, that perceiving physical people and other objects is a little bit difficult still, but she has improved this over time, meaning that at some point she was having some difficulty, which is comparable to how my perception to her has improved over time. It's not like she's living with me freely, although she's free in the sense to amuse herself or wonder off to wherever, I'm also involving her in some of my decision making, and creativity processes I have, and basic life, while sharing my general knowledge about the world and people so far. When it comes to spirits and ghosts, what I found more interesting, is if they do exist, how could they still be standing on ground, without falling through the earth? Or, because they're so light, how are they not, like balloons, float or fly off into the sky? Is it because there's a different layer of energy that keeps them still in earth, but still be of a different density to be non-physical?

@itachi uchiha I guess you just keep af it until you're good.

What do you mean stage green is overall more happier than stage orange? I agree if we're comparing Scandinavian countries to western and middle estern countries like the USA and Iran, but when we scale down to the individual level, we can come across people, who're stage orange and below, who lean more to right wing politics, happier than an individual who has stage green values depending on their cognitiive and moral development, states of consciousness, personality typing and life experiences so far. Any differences in those factors, plus any factor that gets in, will change one's experiences of happiness almost no matter how highly developed your value system is, in certain contexts that highly evolved individual, maybe even the group, will experience varying degrees of happiness.

@Ulax Agreed. Hard to tell if someone actually is doing the work from a wall of text or is spiritually trolling.

I don't think it's possible to delete your account, unless the admin does it.

@Arcangelo Doesn't America already have that, with people living off the grid or libertarians?

@Ninja_pig Forgot that, make a video instead, so it'll be hours long too.

@itachi uchiha Censorship isn't limited to the left wing, the center and right wing political ideologies can also impose censorship to other political ideologies. There's also self censorship as well.

@Yarco That's a good question. I think it'll be similar to if you were unjustly issued a warning or a ban, in which case the person PM another mod or administrator and provide evidence like quotes or posts to build your case. Obviously it'll be tricky because what is the standard considered valid evidence to show you have progressed in personal development to be allowed in the political section again? Is that 6 months of doing a self journaling? Is it 6 months of good posting and behaviour? Do I need to show pictures or videos of parts of my life showing how much I have changed?

@Truth-Seeker I guess Leo didn't want to over focus on the excesses of green when there's more excesses of orange.

@mmKay Amazing, my musical ears found this very pleasant.

@BipolarGrowth Yes, there are a ton of beautiful models to look at.

@Arcangelo Nice music.

Also, Zalinsky likes to ski and have a cup of tea.

@Jenkins I think it's best not to name yourself after an animal.

@A_v_E Too much social media?

Looks like an interesting debate about state holder theory. Watch the video and share your thoughts below, whether Destiny made a convincing case or not about this issue: https://youtu.be/EHxlD8UwmKk My take on this, is that there's a conflation between capitalism/socialism, and confusing parts of capitalism that is healthy for unhealthy parts. I ultimately think that this solution will auto correct into a hybridized system between capitalistic and socialistic economy. What are your thoughts?

Because most people are not interested in self actualisation and truth, and would rather do dumb shit. In my opinion though, Will Smith, despite his success, is a victim of not knowing how mismatched his relationshipis with his wife was. Similarly with the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard case, instead of screening out his potential GF, and was still dealing with the lose of his wife he decides to go deep too quickly with Amber, who has a more domineering personality to Depps meak one. All these celebrities, despite massive successes, are not into personal development and into getting more healthier relationships.

@Kamo I also agree that tik tok, video shorts and reels erode attention span, in fact these are the elite extremes examples of what social media consumption, if not in moderation, not intentional and done in an unconscious manner, does to your focus. I am probably the only zoomer alive that consumes very little social media, other than Youtube educational content and wikipedia for bios.

@Epikur This takes accountability partnership to a whole new level. The crew that was making super metriod did this too, sometimes working so late that the work place became a temporary living spot for some of them. Insane work ethic.

Firstly, has anyone here heard, learned and practiced NLP and spirituality? If so, what are your experiences with these two fields? In my opinion, while there's value to NLP, because ultimately NLP and the thousands of techniques it has is meant to develop a healthier self image and self concept of you as an ego, qualities of that self image, and resource states that are triggerable lkke anchoring a state to an external or internal trigger for example, for a person, spirituality seems to go mostly a different path, one of deconstruction of the self using various spiritual techniques, so it seems to me that NLP is like a compounding interest, where it gets better and is meant for long term growth of a healthier ego, versus spirituality that is meant to ultimately shatter that self image. For example, if you were successful in self inquiry, or had a mystical experience that shattered your ego, that's great, except the backlash that follows isn't helpful, and is a backlash coming from deconstruction of the ego too soon, and without some techniques to ground yourself, or to reform a stronger ego, you are far likely to linger in that negative space self inquiry or other methods of ego destruction can typically create. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

@Juan Amazing art work! Is this done in a digital software or done analogue first?
