It looks to me that in this case, the wife is in green, and the husband is in orange. Imo, they both have to leave each other alone and transcend in healthy ways. Yes, both, not just the wife. Why? Because the wife is too needy for her husband's "affection," and the husband is too into himself. He gets annoyed just because his wife wants affection from him, and he goes out and tells his "orange" co-workers about it in an unconscious way. And, all of them start to gossip and joke about women to stroke their egos for entertainment to feel better. It's not really anyone's business to talk about someone's relationship in that manner. It's just wasting time. Deep down, the couple is very much unaware that they want to look like this: Lots of couples end in breakup/divorce because they're stuck. They are unaware that they have to transcend a relationship all in all. In turquoise/coral, there is only you and no such thing as a relationship. You are always single no matter how you cut the cake. What do you do to transcend relationship? Find a life purpose and commit yourself to that. Use it as a vehicle to transcend many things. To transcend a relationship, you'll have to know how to detach from it. No, you don't have to breakup or divorce. It's like this song. (I was going to put it in the turquoise thread, but it's too emotional. So, I put it in green.) Lyrics: ??Close to me you're like my father. Close to me you're like my mother. Close to me you're like my sister. Close to me you're like my brother. ?? No, I'm not talking about incest, like Leo joked at me in another thread. I'm talking about, eventually, the couple will live like monks one day. Monks are detached from each other. You are also detached from your family, eventually. It's also in a Kensho awakening too. You are completely detached from yourself when you become God and go back to your ego. Except now, you have to apply the absolute truth to the relative truth. Everything in the absolute applies in the relative, esp detachment. This is a big part of the absolute. -

Well, I wouldn't use two different languages as an example--too simple. I would use a good friend as an example. Suppose, I haven't seen my friend in 5-10 years. All of a sudden, we decided to see each other. So, he flies over to see me. We had to catch up because we only chatted on Facebook from time to time. I noticed that I don't talk on the phone with good friends. Life is too short to take it slow. (That's why I love this song!) So, he flies over to see me. I ask him, "what's new?" And, when he replies, I have to listen to him as objectively and carefully as possible. Once, he got into a relationship that I knew would not work out, but I can't tell him this. It's not my business. I can't go and write his story for him. He was so "in love" (infatuated) with him. I knew it wouldn't work because my friend is the one with broader, grounded perspectives. His bf only wants things done in certain ways and don't understand that there are other ways--different love languages that he has not transended. So, this is a complicated and nuanced type of situation. Anyway, I applaud my friend for trying his best to work out this relationship. He didn't call it quits, unlike his bf. He should've picked someone who immigrated and lived in two very different countries (at least) for years, like himself. This to me is a different ballgame than picking someone local who hangs onto only a handful of perspectives from his own backyard and comfort zone, and not being aware of it. -

I think this is one of the most important points of a LP. You can't tell ppl. You have to show them--whatever it is. Otherwise, it'll turn out like this. They have to come to their own conclusions about themselves. You can't hold someone's hand forever and tell them what to do. It doesn't work that way. It will help if your life purpose has different levels. It will help if it starts at a basic level (of Maslow's). Do you go to the grocery store? Of course you do. A grocery store is at a basic level that anyone understands. It doesn't repel ppl. However, most grocery stores don't go down the rabbit hole. -

Excellent point. Powerful, persuasive speeches led to WWII as well as MLK's speech that led to more rights for minorities. Reminds me of this quote, "the pen is mightier than the sword." It's so easy for an ego to fall prey to some unconscious info on the internet and react to it in unconscious ways without going down the rabbit hole. It's so much easier to go out and behave in unconscious ways as a result. Ask yourself, "what is the best way for you to do your part to raise ppl's consciousness?" Yes, your life purpose is nuanced and powerful if you transform it that way. It has impact everywhere, including this topic. You can't really tell ppl what they can and cannot do, if your info is in tier 2. You don't know them. So, you can't tell ppl how to use their strengths, if they're even aware of their strengths. It's not monkey see and monkey do. Negatives (news and info) are easy to sell for the short term, just like a bag of potato chips. -
Ok... I noticed that in the second clip, the dance is taking place in India, not Myanmar (Burma). Look at the background. Those are not pagodas from Myanmar. Those are temples from India.

I can't find my favorite classic / traditional Burmese songs. One of them is a funny one that goes like, "Arr luu na ma bay ne." It could translate into potato, or the real translation is, "Don't bullshit." Now, a lot of them are love songs or hip hop Burmese songs coming from the "younger generation."

"Learn why it is best to keep your personal life personal." -online counselor (I agree with this quote, especially for non-duality. You would have to say it tactfully to anyone you meet. Why would the other person with no experience understand? They will just understand it as another story but not capable of relating to you. So, the results: judging, gossipping, rumors, projections, wrong advices that will get you in big trouble later if you follow them, etc. Show a simple persona first before going down the rabbit hole with anyone.) -

@remember Trauma? Hmmm...ok. ? Well, the following isn't about you. I'm addressing this thread, and in general. You know what triggers trauma? When you say one thing, and the other person doesn't see it for what it is, or the question of, "would you clarify?" have never been asked. Then this negative seed turns into something big and blown up in the end. You have to keep the conversation simple with most ppl. Non-duality is definitely out of the question. Another thing I see that triggers others is, judging others without even knowing them. Trump is good at this, for he's not patient enough to find out about other ppl's journeys in a radically open-minded way. He's goal oriented, not journey oriented. He won't listen. He's only looking for quick fix results. But, most ppl don't do the opposite to Trump anyway. They are similar to Trump. They just look at others on the surface level. When you walk into a rated R movie at the theaters, do you automatically label ppl watching the movie at stage orange or below? Why bother? You don't know them. Don't waste your time obsessing over them. Maybe a few of them are above you? If you want to change ppl, work on a profound life purpose. It gives others a choice whether or not to go along with you. Oh yeah, and I'm talking about a profound life purpose, not some stage orange car company or Trump's casinos. So, it's a choice not manipulation. I could understand how Cheetos and all these junk foods could make you a "zombie." After all, sugars, salts, and preservatives are addictive. Even unconscious video games. Hey, what about fad diets? Even being vegan can be a fad diet. But, a profound life purpose? Nope. It's just the complete opposite. If you don't understand, then you haven't attempted to do it, or you went off on a tangent. -

"What people do is, they hold on to the good at the cost of the great. (29:40)" -Leo @Leo GuraVery powerful quote, Leo! Reminds me of this movie: Too bad he couldn't have it his way in the end--if you watch the whole movie. This is just a movie. In real life, it doesn't have to be exactly like this. Thank goodness! When she found out...here. -

No he can't. He even taught his eldest son, Donald Trump Jr. not to trust him when he was little. "No one is to be trusted," is his motto. Look how petty he is here: This is a good giveaway of who he is, but since the general public is also orange, Trump is seen as tough. -

@remember really? Thanks. I disagree. I need to do a lot better. -

@remember well, it's just a quote. I don't identify with any countries. But, since I live in the US, I might as well do my best here. -

"Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country." -JFK Trump and Bernie would look at this quote differently. Bernie would probably try to make it easier for a lot more ppl to reach it. Well, what I said was a lot more than just career or personal agenda. Just because they're green, doesn't mean they're not stuck in green. A person will have to learn how to deal with such a person when socializing. -

Trump is social to a certain extent. He's more social than most ppl. Where do you meet someone like Trump? One of the places: networking. You'll have to become an early stage startup first with nice business cards and dress nicely when you step into that arena. Then, you talk about your early stage startup and where you're at, how to be self-employed, and how you got organic growth. Someone like Trump will know what I'm talking about. This is part of being social. You cannot just go and talk about your awakening. No one would want to hear it, not even those who have it. There is always a comparison when you just say it out like that. First, ppl need to know who you are when you introduce yourself. (Eg. "Hello, my name is Toyota.") Like I said in this thread, everyone knows what is a Toyota. Ppl in general (and probably by nature) don't want you to take them down your rabbit hole. They want a choice in life. You could shed a light on them, but it might be the wrong light. And, they're right. We're all different. They need to find their own light, not your light. When you convert your startup into a life purpose and express your awakening there, it gives your audience and others more of a choice to think about it. It has to be done tactfully so that it doesn't sound like you're converting them into a religion/cult. Trump messed up because, if you've been following him, his main objective is to be the next trillionaire and always be in the spotlight. That's his attitude. That doesn't qualify him for president. Now, he's forced to think of others. He's not self-made. His father was well-to-do. If he started off poor and became a startup, it's more likely that he won't have such a big ego. -

Good for you. I hope Trump's show watches you. I had no problems watching Donald Trump's Apprentice Show (series). I don't have any weird phobias toward any movies, shows, or whatever I watch. If you do, not sure what to say. Go seek help. This is one of the reasons why I did not vote for him. I see him stepping on everyone all the time and having fun while getting richer. Meanwhile, other ppl's reputations get damaged on his show by back stabbing each other. Trump gets the advantage of looking tough and cocky while he says, "You're fired!" Trump loves creating such environments. His presidency is like this too. -

In fact, maybe Trump has PTSD from military school. I heard he does have a military background, but maybe he forgot to integrate it properly. He has the discipline but not beyond that. -

If you like to watch the movie, Die Hard, go ahead. If you love war movies, go ahead. My favorite war movie is, Seven Samurai. The hero in the end does not get attached and become unconscious. He (or she) doesn't get PTSD, or learns to rid of it by becoming empowered, or whatever way or method.
