I don't know if you were here when it happened, but Leo has publicly addressed Beck's criticism on the forum, removed his video (or it got taken down) and changed his stance somewhat. I also don't see why you feel the need to disagree with the developers of the model. Ken Wilber is also in line with Beck on this issue (see his video on "Waking up ≠ Growing up"). The fact is that Turquoise is not inherently mystical, as mysticism has existed for many thousands of years, and Turquoise necessitates Yellow, and Yellow didn't exist before 50-70 years ago. Turquoise is the evolution of Yellow to a more collectively oriented focus. Again, that said, I think discovering and adopting mysticism becomes more likely once you approach Tier 2.

Intuition works at a subtle level of feeling and mind activity, and frequent thoughts, worries and fears will inhibit this ability.

The more you empty your mind, the more sensitive it becomes.

@Michael Jackson This is not another dogpiling thread. Keep it to "mods/admins in general".

And humans survive.

Peace and madness, conscientiousness and openness, fear and love.

?

How is slavery bad if you don't care about survival?

In that case, you're just allowing someone to rule somebody else's (your) survival. How is that moral?

Do it again

Karma is not morality. It's physics. Morality is about survival.

Do you think this varies based on if the mods in question had actively applied for their position or if they were merely approached and given the offer?

Just try it for a week.

Patriarchy. Take a look at BATGAP's videos. It's pretty 50/50. https://www.youtube.com/c/Batgap

Afterwards when you're done being delusional

Bro seriously, go the middle way: go for 3 days between faps and I'll promise you that the sensitivity will return AND your brain fog will lift. I've been on both extremes before, and I choose the middle way every time.

Leo has been criticized by Don Beck in the past for misunderstanding Turquoise and conflating it with mysticism (Ken Wilber's contributions to SDi also confirms this), which is what I think is happening here when he is describing the limitations of Yellow. That said, I don't think mysticism is necessarily unrelated to SD development, and I've tried to explain this here:

Just wait 3-4 days between faps.

Meaning + Being ?

It depends on how the concept is viewed. You could actually argue it's a lesson in construct awareness ("self-deception happens at the level of words"), which Blue isn't fully able to articulate but is still able to experience the benefits of by adopting it dogmatically. Instead of judging its value based on elaborate syllogisms, they instead point to its constancy throughout history as words of wisdom. So Blue realizes its value through other means than the higher stages, but the concept itself may be immensely valuable in ways that only the higher stages can articulate. Said more generally, one of Blue's most powerful technologies (the power of tradition) contains a profound wisdom which can be meaningfully explicated using say a mature systems view at Yellow+, but even then might not be fully given justice.

Was Anders Behring Breivik a Christian terrorist?

Everyone has had their vegan smack cam moment... except for Destiny

I just can't stop laughing at Destiny's "OMG, IT'S THE THING!" 2:00

Hahaha I first thought that video had to be heavily cherry picked, but oh man it's even worse than I thought:
