Very necessary if you want to be fully whole and not dysfunctional.
Don't forget that many of those Buddhist monks are dysfunctional people regardless of how enlightened they are.
Awakening requires a lot of processing of your internal emotional baggage. The more baggage you have, the more you'll have to process to reach ultimate peace.
Working out your emotional baggage is one of the most useful things you can do in life.
It is a mistake to suppress emotional and psychological stuff by deciding to just bull your way through to enlightenment. You can bull your way through to enlightenment (maybe), but you will have a lot of inner work to do afterwards. The macho Zen approach is not that effective for most people. Most people need a softer, more emotional, more holistic approach.

Yes, I know that feeling.
I know this feeling too.
Maybe after the virus passes.

To be more helpful to you, women generally have less problems with being incels simply because women are more social creatures. These days it's all too easy for a man to lock himself in his mancave and spend most of his time online or playing video games. You just can't get laid that way. If you invested as much time into being social as you did into playing video games or hanging around online, you'd get laid way more.
The #1 biggest thing you can do to increase your sex is to be social.
It's that simple. But it requires you make structural changes to your way of life. Which of course no one wants to do.
Try it. Make a goal to talk to 10 new people every day for 90 days. You'll be amazed at the opportunities that come your way. Not just sex but jobs, ideas, friendships, etc. Being social takes effort for many people, especially guys and introverts.
If you're an introverted guy who spends all his time online, you will basically never get laid. So change that.

Hey, ya'll, I need your help!
I want to create a comprehensive list of video examples of prototypical stage Turquoise thinking.
This is meant to be an educational tool for people learning about Spiral Dynamics.
So towards that end, scour Youtube and find all the videos you can which exhibit stage Turquoise thinking. Try to find videos which are short and sweet. The more diversity we can display here, the better. Try to find examples from various cultures.
We will create a mega-thread like this for every stage in the Spiral, from Red to Turquoise. But here, let's just focus on Turquoise. Each week I will start a new mega-thread topic for the next stage.
Do not start a political debate in this thread! It is not our goal here to defend our personal political positions or to judge any stage, but simply to compile examples.
Thanks for your help! I'm excited to see what kind of juicy stuff you dig up. Try to be selective with your choices.
This can turn into a really cool list.
