Very expected, This channel is definitely not for everybody, the people who are really interested in the content discussed here are stage yellowish-green and above.

Trump is trying hard to provoke a 3rd world war clearly. I'm not sure, but I heard somewhere that in the constitution's laws if the country is in war, the president will not change during war, and thus he will remain president for another round. if this is true, it shouldn't be surprising to have trump forcing himself as a president for another round.

Hello, I have been contemplating this topic for the last few years: Future of Business, economy and making living, Where is it going really? and these are my main points and questions: We are overpopulated, markets are oversaturated, what will happen to the business as the population grows? The wages are getting lower as we go along. immigrants, cheap labor, internet freelancers from poor countries are seeking opportunities in higher developed countries which makes competition much difficult for people living in more developed countries. (not belittling any nation, just stating facts that the world is changing so how we are gonna make it together) Your craft no matter how good you are at it, someone somewhere on this planet is doing it cheaper or even better than you. Competitions are getting ugly, massive corporates are getting larger, medium-sized corporates are getting smaller, smaller ones either perish very quickly or last under the mercy of investors, charity, and crowdfunding. working at online freelance platforms are getting worse, freelancers fee percentages are getting smaller year by year, and the competition between freelancers is becoming unbearable. Ideas are getting cheaper, you think your idea is creative and unique? well, someone else you never heard of came up with a similar idea, let's hope that you copyrighted it first! As creative ideas are becoming similar due to overpopulation and strong global connectivity, what will happen to copyrights? is an education certificate will and still be necessary? can a master degree save someone from poverty? As A.I is growing, and it's taking most of the jobs in the world, what will happen to those people? Singularity, a matter of time and it's coming, what will happen to humans who need jobs to earn living? With all the factors around, the worst economic collapse is highly probable soon, how will an average human being survive financially? Most of the population of the world are stage blue and below, how does this impact the economy? and if the population became green and above, how will this change the economy? What will be the currency of the future? will people still believe in paper money? cryptocurrency? other forms of trading energies? If the whole world is in debt, could debts, Credit cards, and loans be "The currency" for some time? is that okay? What survival/business skills a human being will need to survive the future? I'm not being pessimistic nor optimistic, and I'm not making conclusions, these are merely key points that I think is worth highlighting, I'm sure I missed many more. I would love to hear Leo's views on this topic, I also appreciate we can share resources, books, videos that talks about this topic. Thanks.

Simply, If Leo's content doesn't ring someone's bell, it's because they are not ready for it, or because they already passed that level (which is rare). and if they really passed that level, they wouldn't be moaning about anyone on social media. What I see, is Actualized.org discusses mostly Stage Yellow and late Yellow/early Turquize, and maybe some Late Green people as well. there are of course some blue and orange, but they have some little "Yellow" in their guts, that's why they keep following. That's why I think Yellow is a quality, not a stage. Leo's teaching opens you to question itself, he never said to take any of his teachings for granted, even if the teaching was barking up a wrong tree, just going through 2 hours video about a deep topic provokes some serious contemplation about the topic afterward, which may lead you to other conclusions/realizations.

This is a good question, It cannot be answered with a small post, I need to explain and define some essential matters first. I think you need first to tell the deferences between conditional love, and non-conditional love. Most of the romantic love we know and inherited from our parents and society is conditional love, you love somebody because she's hot, cute, rich, you like the way she smiles, she likes your money, you both are from rich families, or you have something in common in a survival level. There is nothing right or wrong about conditional love, it's an essential experience to be lived at some stage in your life, whether it lasted or not, it's just usually when the conditions between you go away, then this love will go away and may also turn into hatred, (Like simply if she turns ugly as she ages, or you become poor so she leaves you, or one of you has developed bad habits, smell, food, betrayal, or your interests changes.. etc), usually, conditional relationships don't respect space for development, space for healing, if such relationships remain, it remains as a duty for both, due to the marriage contract in between, or because of kids, or that reason that made you love each other has faded away,........... or because you both didn't meet someone better yet . as Non-conditional love, It's not determined by condition, you consciously conduct a non-selfish relationship with somebody despite look, sexiness, money, position, and all conditions, because you both know you both can understand and support each other, stand for each other, guide and correctly each other, or do something amazing to the world with each other. I personally see the most important thing to find in true non-conditional love is that nobody is possessing the other, no over attachment, no jealousy, and you both give each other's space when you need to, and even if you break up, no one is emotionally over-hurt or damaged, you both are extremely honest about your intentions and don't hide secrets from each other, at the same time, you both respect each other's needs, and you have each other backs regardless of conditions in between, can that girl you met understand this? can you be open with her at that level? You may not pursue that relationship and develop it to romantic levels because you feel untempted, she/or he is probably not your best cup of coffee on the survival level, he/she is not (hot) or (rich) o (entertaining) enough to fulfill some of your screaming survival needs, she/or he is probably the person you are friend zoning right now, you don't sleep together but you enjoy hanging out together, share stories, drink together, and tell your secrets to each other.. unconditional love is more like friendship than romantic love but it can be grown consciously and turned into a healthy romantic love! It's too rare to find both Conditional and Non-Conditional love in your life, it's not impossible though. many times that what you think is non-conditional love when that woman is (hot and cute - or has that smile), is actually a conditional love hiding underneath many layers of egoic excuses that makes you both think this is unconditional! Now, what do you really want from a girl/ or a girl want from a guy? to answer your question, You need to look at the conditions in between, if it's only conditions are what's attracting you together, then it's a compulsive unconditional love, I am not saying "Avoid", but assuming you are here in Actualized.Org, which is one of the most powerful self-development/awakening resources you can ever find online, You may think twice before going through a conditional relationship! and when you know exactly the differences between conditional and non-conditional love, you are now responsible for seeking any of them! this will impact your Karma based on your intentions. So would you like to go through the experience consciously and learn? Please don't abuse that relationship, most of the ladies throughout the past till our current generation are still over-emotional and conditioned to seek a serious conditional relationship, they are not looking for an opportunity to learn and then to be dumped out. they dream to find a caring boyfriend who will fulfill her basic needs and then become their future responsible husband and raise a nice small family, so please be conscious and responsible. But also, what many girls (and guys) are willingly wanting to have some sex fun or enjoy some intimate moments and cuddling, and you are willingly want to have the same! So you may be asking, is it wrong to have some emotional and.or sexual fun? Now what I'm going to say next may be controversial and strange to most cultures, so don't take it for granted or make conclusions, but think consciously about it. We live in the 21th century, for the first time, this is the age of condoms, magic pills, and there are many newer and upcoming methods to control birth, today family breeds are not a social restriction to many as it was before, sex and romance doesn't have that amount of medical and social consequences as it used to before, and for that sexuality shouldn't be a taboo anymore, we are the generation that can finally use sex for fun, and only fun! if you both are conscious enough to have some fun?, no one is using the other and put false promises?, and living responsibly in a society and atmosphere where you don't get punished or executed for having sex without marriage, there is nothing wrong with having sex, if you are conscious, sexuality can be fun, and not just that but also a Karma free activity! that, of course, doesn't mean to become a slut, asshole or a sex addict, and hide under the excuse of having fun. so please again be responsible. I might be wrong about all this because I myself still learning life, but I am encouraging you to think beyond the norms. regarding that girl that you are interested in, try to see, is she interested in a serious relationship? then evaluate whether this relationship is conditional or not, if you want to proceed with conditional love, you need to be ready for drama (which many of us still enjoy). the day you have children with somebody, you just signed a divine responsibility to raise them whether you still love their mother or not, the day you have children you need to put raising them on top of your life purpose, in fact raising children should become your life purpose. If that feelings towards that girl are unconditional love, you need to see how strongly you both are capable to understand each other, pursue a meaningful life purpose together, and how willing are you to also break from each other peacefully if that was for the best interest for your souls. You need to make your own sense and take responsibility, who you want to have a relationship with, so you want a relationship in the first place, or do you just want to have fun?

Yes, this is intersting and challenging to research, Leo may not be there yet, most of it would be speculations rather than speaking from experience, and there is also Stage Teal which comes after. I didn't research or read anything about them, but I guess the second half of "The Ox Herding stages of enlightenment" may be relative to stage Coral and Teal.

Most of the people we hate to deal with the most are stage red mentality, they can exist even in highly civilized countries as Bullies, thieves, criminals, mafias, or it can be just some hungry and angry worker, employee or some corrupted taxi driver, or corrupted Policeman/Military solider etc which many of us deal with them almost every day, and if we are not careful enough when dealing with them, they can get angry at you, beat you, bully you, rip you, rape you, or even murder you. It would be interesting to see a video discussing how to deal with these people. How to speak to them, How to negotiate with them, Have business done with them if we need to What motivates them and what triggers them, How to help them evolve if we can, How to survive in stage red society if someone is unlucky enough to end up there like (prisons, war zones, political revolutions/authority fall, Syria, Yemen, Africa, Far Cry/Gotham City like environments) I think this is a very interesting topic, and very practical to the challenges many of us face everyday in life. Thanks,

Every Spiral Dynamics stage can be intellectual I believe, as for stage blue, they usually read for the intent of re-confirming their beliefs, and take biases to cherry pick what he wants to believe from any book, And this guy is a Muslim cleric and his job is to invite people to Islam, and as he seems to be very good at it, he must have read tons of books includes science and philosophy with a biased intent to understand the people he's trying to convert. This guy if you check the titles of his other videos, is very blue, and maybe disgusting to many of us. However, let's not attach Stage blue strictly to religion, There are many Muslims who are orange, green, yellow, and turquoise, there are even red and purple of course. it's just each stage in SD in Muslims has a different focus, different motives, different understandings to islam, and different stickiness to the label "Islam" Red Muslims can be Isis, terrorist groups, criminals, notorious individuals, and bullies. Orange Muslims can be the best doctors, engineers, developers, businessmen, yet the focus of material life tops their focus on religion. Green Muslims are loving, accept others openly, care for the environment, health, and stand for human rights, open to other non-religious spiritual teachings, and re-translated God scriptures as a more of a love message than a fear-based message. Yellow Muslims, many of them are entrepreneurs, artists, inventors, etc.. they could be spiritual in their own ways, but they wear Islam as one mask to cope in the society and help to bridge them. Turquize, they are either walking around us every day like normal people or maybe we hear about them in living in far mountains I assume.

There are more great videos than I can remember, but first thing popped up in my mind: - Spiral Dynamics series - The Ox herding stages of awakening - Ego Backlash

Hi All How can we change how we feel about things? how can we make less pleasant experiences/tasks more joyful or even addictive? From another perspective, how can we change or shift our Qualia to make things fun? I aim from this question is to learn ways to find joy in everything, find fun in small and boring tasks, enjoy sticking to long-term plans, and accept pain and hard times and the things that we cannot change in our lives. I have my reasons to believe that Qualia is a key if not (the key) to happiness and depression or even the case of being careless! Hope to hear your thoughts, techniques, substances, yoga, magic potions (lol) or anything! Thanks in advance

Enlightenment is an inner realization, not a belief, and I don't think it can be proved externally or by science, unfortunately, we needed to give this state a name so we can explain the unexplainable to each others, many people took the word so seriously and made a belief out of it and now they are chasing something that doesn't exist, that's why they see no results. Enlightened people are so normal people just like anybody else, but most of them just manage to successfully tame their behavior, that's how they seem nice and wiser to others, but nicer and wiser are not necessary attributes for enlightenment.

I didn't mean 'Enlightenment' by my use of 'Awakening' here, I had a couple of short enlightenment experiences in my life but I'm not enlightened yet, but I cannot deny the radical change happening in how I see everything, more clarity in why everything around me, many things are falling in place and starting to make sense along with a big AHAAA! , awakening is Present Tense verb, it can be a slow process, I had these symptoms since about two years ago, and I still don't deem myself enlightened but I know for sure I'm going somewhere, I still do have a skeptical mind, otherwise, I wouldn't be opening this topic, which I originally opened in an attempt to help share our 'Beginners' experiences regarding this

I would like to share the physical symptoms I had a year and a half ago during the period I had total shift in my consciousness and realization. I'm sharing this because I was somehow confused when these symptoms first happen, but let please not fall into the illusion of having these symptoms if you haven't encountered any, we all naturally has a tendency to imagine when we read about any symptoms. just be conscious about what you read here and be honest with yourself about what you feel. Some of my symptoms are referred from Stewart Wilde Audio book (Journey Beyond Enlightenment), Adyashanti talks, and few websites/articles here and there, and I was able to refer to it within my personal experience. Please don't exactly believe what I'm writing here, keep in mind that some of these symptoms can be serious physical illness or deficiencies. This DOESN'T mean not to check the doctor! 1 - Twitches all over the body, Especially around the lower leg, At first I thought I might be having signs of ALS or Parkinson disease, I went to check several doctors, and they diagnosed it as stress.. that was nearly one and a half years ago, well if there was anything serious I think I should be on a wheel chair by now. 2 - Subtle numbness/tingling all over, it feels like little stars dancing around my body, especially around in my head and skull, although accompanied with comfort, they did not feel like serious illness or damage. I asked two doctors, one asked me if I took any drugs, I said no, later on they both diagnosed it as stress, although I was so far from being stressed (at least I think). 3 - Energetic electric shocks while trying to sleep: Sleeping patterns totally been messed up, I don’t feel that I need to sleep whenever I want to sleep, there is some energy that keeps waking me up each time I try to sleep. I couldn’t force myself to sleep, I was more energetic for doing something I have been wishing to do during my day, when I talked to a doctor, he stated these were not seizures, but stress, he asked me, “you look like an ambitious guy, but are you really doing what you really love during your day?” I couldn’t disagree. 4 – Transparent shiny colorful noise all over my vision: Accompanied with relief and bliss whenever I shift my attention to them, it’s a flickering transparent overlay layer that feels like coming from somewhere behind my eyes. And sometimes they take geometrical shapes if I focus in some ways, I had these since I was an innocent kid, but they faded away as I grew up, and now they are coming back even stronger along with my gradual awakening, I never knew if these are eye glitches or spiritual receptivity, I’m just aware that they become stronger in days where I feel relaxed, humble, surrendered, and I’m not so identified as the Mind or the Body. 5 – Clicking Sound around my head and neck: It could be nothing but some internal gas vesting or body liquids pumping , I'm noticing I'm have lots of these lately and this grabbed my attention because Stewart Wilde mentioned it in his -good but a little fairy talish- audio book (Journey beyond Enlightenment), and he described it as a Floppy Disk formatting noise, he said it’s divine information receptivity! I don’t want to believe, but I wanted to leave it open for speculation. 6 – Strong Sense of Distinction A strong sense of contrast between the physical happening and inner timeless silence, and a sense that what is happening here is way different that what is happening there. One feels like I’m in a 3D software, and the other is, just a realized nothingness, they are completely two different realms. the contrast becomes stronger when I walk, visit new places or do exciting physical actions with some inner attention. Again please don’t take these for granted, I think everybody’s experience is different, Stewart Wilde (and also Adyashanti) talked about many other symptoms that I did not experience myself. Now Tell us about your experiences, and what do you think!

True, knowing is pure nondogmatic intelligence, it doesn't even has a language. just pure processing.

Egoic love is so different than Spiritual love, spiritual people have no excessive attachment to each others. there may be some strong non-conditional emotions shared between them, they are just emotions and sexual instincts, spiritual people realize that emotions and sexual instincts just comes and goes as a natural state of all human beings, and they are so honest to admit that to each others. a romantic spiritual love within my understanding (and I deem as perfect) is made of deep and honest understanding between the couple, they have no problem to joyfully accept that they don't no longer has feelings. no cheating, no lies, no sneaking around, it's up to them next if they want to continue living to together to support each others, or to break up, they will remain in a default sense of compassion, but no excessive attachment. no heart-breaking and drama.
