good video but it would have been better if he looked more into the mental health issues angle than gun owenership

I'd put him at yellow

I consider myself a global citizen. However there are some points I would like to talk about. Leo put in his post, "today, thanks to technology, each year, mankind is becoming more and more interconnected as one global community. This trend is inevitable and irreversible. But much of the world's population is running on the age-old nationalist operating system, thus resisting global integration. It's a matter of identity. Global integration requires relinquishing one's old, limited national identity — which feels threatening and uncomfortable for many people." How can you just push all countries aside with their rich traditions, identity, language, culture etc. Surely one of the beauties is to have these rich diverse differences? I think you can have pride in your countries history, achievements etc without demonising other countries or having a superiority complex. I lived in China for 7 years and it is true that you can bond a lot easier with people closer to your own culture. I found it alot easier bonding with Europeans than Chinese due to big cultural differences. I would also say I bonded more with my own countries people than Europeans. I also feel that a homogenous group of people have the right to be ruled by themselves, does that make them nationalistic? Contrary to this post I am a globalist but these are the points I would like to add as to why nationalism isn't all bad.

great respnse thanks for clearing it up for me -

I love seeing his development up the spiral too. I think if he did this interview again now as e has moved more into stage yellow he wouldn't have attacked them as much. If you see him in his more recent podcasts he has gotten much gentler like a true yogi.

this is hardest I have ever laughed out of any youtube video

Yea you can also learn from his spirituality and conscious politics. In fact I'd love to see you on his podcast Leo, everyone seems to want you on Joe Rogan but I think you 2 would have a great conversation i think you two are on a similar trajectory apart from the psychedelics part.

I agree i've learnt a lot too just from watching Russell Brand interactions.

Trappers in Russia considered the happiest people in the world who live disconnected living off the land - making their own houses, canoes, and other essentials to survive

It's my favourite game of all time. VR missions is just perfect. If you are into studying mastery, what Hideo Kojima achieved with this game really defines it. -

I'd like to share this as I thought it was a beautiful talk

This is a very nice Left vs Right debate where Russell handles Candace very skilfully. -
Ive been following Mooji for the last month and i feel he has some of the most direct teachings. He seriously cuts through all the bullshit of the mind and i really feel in my body and completely present while listening to his teachings. He doesn't address any of the growing up ideas like Leo or Ken Wilber and just sees it all as mind play that can be transcended. He really directs the person towards The Self with every word he says and its making me question whether growing up is that important when you can leave all the psychological worries behind by following a spiritual master like this.

Mine would be - mindfulness in daily life of victim mentality and judging others, contemplation, radical open mindedness (enjoying seeing the world from multiple perspectives) spiral dynamics and kriya yoga.

I find these questions useful to help me know if i am on the right path or not: Does it bring you closer to people or isolate you? Does it bring you closer to inner peace or make you feel more stressed? Does it make you more conscious and aware or a distraction from that? Does it make you feel more compassionate and loving or more self absorbed?

This guy falls into pretty much every trap Leo points out in the history of his content. -

this is the funniest thing ive ever seen -
Yea I remember that being good. I remember getting triggered when my friend told me what I SHOULD do tho. That was a downside of it in my early development.
