With Blue it's actually interesting. Blue people are heavily attached to being 'good people'. So, they will be very sensitive to your potential disapproval and their behavior will be very nice and kind. This can come across as empathy, when actually this is a reaction to their fear of disapproval. They will tend to prioritize being a good person above being an individual, i.e. they will prioritize their moralistic ideology above expressing themselves authentically. The empathy is not real empathy, they don't even know themselves individually! This is true for all humans. Having emotions though doesn't mean you are empathetic. For example, Orange people have emotions but their rationalism takes away from their ability to be empathetic, in fact their materialistic ideology doesn't believe in empathy! That is true. The transition from Red to Blue is interesting, in that you manipulate the emotional reactivity of Red to indoctrinate kids. The reason your programming works is emotional reactivity, but you're programming them to be able to prioritize an ideology above their emotions when deciding how to act! The reason it doesn't work for sociopaths isn't that they don't have emotions (they do), it's that they don't have that ability to suppress their emotions. 'Normal people' are also emotionally reactive, but they're able to suppress it so that we can collectively survive in relative safety. Sociopaths also tend to be emotionally reactive, but they can't suppress their emotions, which makes them dangerous. Maybe it is. It's still done out of an attachment to what they've been indoctrinated with though. The selfish attachment to selflessness! I don't believe you can become completely ego-less as a human being. You can realize that the ego is an illusion, but being ego-less is still an idealization for you. Conscious people try their best to come close though.

The ones who really care and empathize are Green people, not Blue people. Blue people have been indoctrinated to sacrifice for something bigger and they blindly follow it and defend it. It actually isn't humanly possible to be selfless. Now you can realize that you have no self, that you're not human. But that doesn't happen at Blue!

@Girzo If Trump were using this forum, he'd say 'Leo's a really great guy, he has an incredible forum, awesome people in there, giving me all this attention. Vote for me 2020!!'

I'm sure the top answer will be 'He's hilariously funny' or 'His memes were the best!' I agree. I'm not American, I didn't vote.

@iceprincess Ikr!! Then these same people will demonize mass shooters when a mass shooting occurs. Mass shootings occur for similar reasons, because of the shadows of society.

What you're saying totally makes sense. I want to add though that this can change. Being at Turquoise doesn't mean that you'll necessarily be a bleeding-heart SJW. You can channel your inner ruthlessness when it comes to arresting people AND be mindful that the guy you're arresting is you. I'm not saying this is easy or realistic in the near future. But it is something to aspire towards as a society.

Make it a free speech platform that doesn't have the censorship problem. A lot of people will thank you for it!

Good question. It is an entire field of study. It's called being a spiritual teacher. This is what spiritual teachers master. Observe spiritual teachers who are very good at communication, who have good vocabulary. Some very good examples are Leo and Teal Swan. Because they are able to dis-identify with their own ideology (which you can do at Yellow and above), they can interact with someone who is identified with that specific ideology. They are very good at communicating with people identified with different ideological positions. They can do this by getting really deep into their perspective and interacting with that ideological perspective. I myself am very passionate about learning this. Human beings don't know how to really communicate with each other. It will take some really serious commitment on your side to really master this. This is the focus of my life currently. It will be incredibly valuable in all aspects of my life. I'm planning to write a book that has an effect of directly interacting with the reader. I'll be able to do this because I'm learning this! A few good questions to ask yourself when they act ignorant: 'What are they missing?' 'Is this person open-minded or closed-minded to what I'm saying?' 'If they're closed-minded, why are they closed-minded? What are they defending? What are they prioritizing above the truth? What exactly are they identified with?' Be sure to do this only once you've recognized that the person you're interacting with is a part of yourself, that you aren't separate from them. Otherwise, you will fall into the trap of 'trying to fix them' and some sort of moral, intellectual superiority. None of this is true, you are not superior to anyone if you're more conscious than them. It just means that you see stuff that they don't see. Albeit this can make your perspective more valuable than theirs, even if you aren't morally/intellectually superior to them. Of course, @Leo Gura's inputs would be valuable to me too.

Teal Swan making a brave, courageous statement on Black-out Tuesday: This is unbelievably bold given how much she has at stake. Much respect to her!

Good for you. Most people in the world would envy you as they're struggling to figure out what to do with their time in lockdown. They don't really want to solve the problems at hand. They actually want to be activists and protesters, which involves upholding and pushing your progressive ideology, assuming that you're right and everyone else is full of shit. They're newbies in the business of creating change and solving systemic, social issues. I mean they've just woken up to the reality that social injustices exist. They've just been disillusioned with the government, which they've been brainwashed to believe should be fairly upholding the law. This is an issue of both sides not understanding each other's mental contexts. This is more important for you to do, as you're more conscious than them. It's the responsibility of the side that's more conscious to initiate building the bridge between themselves and the unconscious folks. They're under the illusion that we should be equal, or that equality is a good thing. It's like earlier they believed that we are equal and that we're in a fair, free market at Orange. Then you get to Green and you realize that you had certain advantages or 'privileges' over them which is why you succeeded and they failed. Which means, it was never a fair competition to begin with. You guilt yourself into thinking that your privileges are unfair and that is a bad thing. When you develop higher, however, you start to see that unfairness is part of the game and that there is an over-arching sense of fairness to the working of Universal Intelligence. HTH

@John Iverson What he meant it that it doesn't take a special person to follow the beaten path and be a pilot because everyone else they know is doing that, or their culture fed them with the idea that 'Being a pilot is cool'. If you do it like that, you will get mired in the system and you will completely lose touch with your authentic self. Maybe you don't really want to be a pilot/engineer/scientist/doctor, but you went for it because of indoctrination. Now it is perfectly fine if you authentically have a dream of becoming a pilot. You can go for it and be an authentic fit in the system you're entering, in which case you won't lose yourself in the system.

I think the English is fine. She did indeed mean 'You chose to be born as a Black person beforehand, in the non-physical realm'. New-Agers say this, even Leo would agree. Infinite Will means that you choose everything. I think what she's saying makes sense. But she said it at an inopportune moment. Our culture currently doesn't believe that they are responsible for everything that happens in their life. So, when you tell them to take responsibility, Stage Green people will call it 'victim-blaming' and they'll shoot the messenger. Her mistake was to not see this and understand the ramifications of it. What she didn't see was that collectively, our collective consciousness is one in which we play zero-sum games to create social change. We don't care about taking responsibility for anyone and everyone, rather we care about seeing the change we want and that's it. We don't particularly care about how our change could negatively impact someone else. If I were in her place, I'd do a generic BLM post, or I'd not say anything about this. You're just playing with fire if you directly call out collective shadows.

Aww man! I was curious about it. I was hoping to maybe clear up the communication gap that was happening between you and other people.

This is a serious question. I've never understood the rationale behind protesting. How does it work? What do people hope to achieve by protesting for or against anything? Say some crime happens. It could be a sexual assault case by a powerful man leveraging his power. It could also be the George Floyd thing. Everyone loses their minds and starts protesting! Why exactly is everyone doing that?

@The observer How do you define love?

Also the way the media is trying to paint it is absurd. The media is trying it's damnedest to paint it as a positive movement of 'showing solidarity for Black people', doing the 'Black lives matter' thing. There's looting, riots, burning police cars, etc. I mean, how much can you delude yourself as the media?! This is a new high in the media's self-delusion. Like damn, being Leftist is literally all that matters to them! Do they not think that Antifa will take advantage of this? Are they that willing to play dirty against the Right?

I'm starting to feel scared for our world tbh. If one White cop killing a Black guy on camera can induce such a huge outcry and reaction, there's tons of more skeletons in the closet which will come out one by one. How many more protests will we see? What will the collective do to the systems we currently have? Shit is getting really ugly in the US. The reaction is nation-wide. I'm starting to feel scared for the safety of Americans tbh. Are you guys safe in there? Or is the reaction getting out of hand? What will happen to the supply chains for your essential services?

Yeah but what bargaining power do you have as a protester? Why should anyone listen to you? You're just out on the streets potentially breaking the law. I'm having trouble understanding the 'importance and significance' of protests as you call them.

When I look at a protest, I get the feeling that they don't really understand how the system works, or the complications of making it work. Do they do their homework before getting on the streets, or is it just emotional reactivity? This is a pretty serious topic as real people's lives are on the line if it turns violent. I can understand why a politician would get scared of protests. However, would the politician make good decisions when they're scared? Why is it necessary to put pressure on politicians in such a crude manner? Do you even know what you're asking for? As a protesting rally, what bargaining power do you have? Who is to decide whether what you're saying makes sense or not? Why should politicians even pay attention to you, if your solutions may not be the best?

Communication of what? Is it a resistance to 'evil'? It generally happens when some crime happens. What do these people expect? Do they expect to live in a perfectly safe society? Do they really think that if the police/government did its work perfectly that we would have a crime-free society? Do we still believe this collectively? Generally, from what I've seen, the protesters don't have respect for due process. This turns out to be hypocritical on the part of protesters, in that they sabotage the working of their own government when they're asking for better government!

Having a prison system that teaches people to be present with their emotions. A lot of prisoners have no ability to suppress their emotions, which gets in their way in their transition from Red to Blue. A lot of them just can't move to Blue. Blue requires that you prioritize following an ideology above reacting to your emotions. This requires that you suppress your emotions, but some of them aren't capable of that. They need systems of mental health facilities that teach them how to live a life of peace and alignment even if they can't suppress their emotions. This would mean teaching them to be present with their emotions as opposed to suppressing them. If you can't suppress your emotions and you can't be present with them, you'll inevitably end up reacting to them. This is how their Stage Red mind works - 'I feel like killing someone, I kill someone'. It's not that we don't feel like killing people from time to time, it's just that we have an ideology that says 'Killing is bad' that's stopping us from doing that. Now some of us are exceptional in that we understand that morality is relative and that those emotions of anger and hatred need to be understood. But that's not the norm. I don't think teaching them morality will work. If anything, that creates more criminals as it externalizes and demonizes 'evil'. This is exactly what's happening in jails today. There's another danger with doing that: A lot of people underestimate an ability Stage Red people have - fake morality. They won't really have a morality integrated into their psyche, but they want to appear as good people. So, because they're emotionally reactive, their morality will depend on their emotional reaction. This will enable them to change their morality at a drop of a hat, to suit their emotional reaction. They will go through a process in which they have an emotional reaction, they're acting unconsciously according to that emotional reaction, so they will identify with which-ever ideology suits their best interests in that situation. This is how sociopathy works. This is exactly what Trump does. This enables them to pull off manipulative shit that deceives everyone else who is moral. The normal person will think that their morality is real, when in fact it is fake and it can change depending on their emotional reaction.

I'd like to have Leo's opinion on this (as he's interacted with lots of people on Non-duality/religion) : At what Spiral Stage does literalism start to become untenable? I think that it is only at Tier 2, i.e. Stage Yellow does this become possible. The reason is as follows: At the transition from Green to Yellow, you start to develop the ability to sit with two opposing ideological perspectives without getting attached to either one. This creates a sensation of cognitive dissonance which you're able to hold. This is where you really start to see that your interpretations of something are actually different from their interpretations of it. So you stop getting attached to the 'literal interpretation' of it. Now your focus starts to go on resolving paradoxes, filling semantic gaps and having clear communication between ideological perspectives. This, I'd assume, is a part of becoming a 'Spiral Wizard'. My question is not only for Leo, all of you can chime in.

If you see that the perpetrator is a part of yourself, you will see the actual reasons for actions that seem outwardly monstrous. These reasons often times reveal the vulnerability of the perpetrator. This helps us to stop demonizing them and get a handle on how we're responsible for those crimes/abuse.

This is a nice long-term benefit. However, I feel that we need to be able to get along as separate countries first if we're having border disputes. If we talk about uniting India and Pakistan today, both sides will feel outraged like you're taking away their identity and rightly so. Pakistan has been trying to colonize India since the beginning of time. We need to be secure in our identities as countries first, especially Pakistan. A country secure in its identity would never try to colonize another country. Both countries need to be nationalistic first, but in a co-operative manner. Once we're able to actually resolve these issues and get along as separate countries and really be in love with each other in fact, then we can think about unification. (Using a marriage analogy lol) Overall, I'm fully on board with you when you give the benefits of integration of countries. That would be some seriously awesome progress for humanity if we were to actualize it!

Very important videos.
