@Sevi May God have mercy on your orange soul! REPENT. 

Ahahah! NO! I'm gonna transcend this stage deservedly.. (Ahahah!! do you see the ambition?!!.. My burning desire! Ahahah) and also while the context of the competition in this case includes Leo.. well no way I'm giving up? stakes are too high you know

 

P.S I cannot believe myself that I'm doing this in the yellow stage thread:) ( but see, there is this a bit of a self-awareness happening here does it count?? :)) )

Sigh.. Ok whatever. I was gonna reply @Key Elements anyways..

 

I was gonna say that in most of the cases the stages are already about where the consciousness level is rather than how the situation looks or free from the manifestations in display.

As if, take the example of committing suicide. If you look at the same act from turquoise stage it is a complete different story versus where everything turns into offense whenever what guru says is completely misunderstood because of the mismatch of the consciousness levels of the related parties. History is full of examples of what the enlightened beings are through while trying to awaken the society.

One thing though, it's your choice to go for it or not. Belle's cousin went for it. She had the choice not to. Her family isn't dysfunctional and forcing her, so it is possible to get a good one through that method. If her family was dysfunctional, then I would "sigh."

I have met a girl in real life, who asked for an arranged marriage from her mom and dad because she got along with them very well. Her mom was surprised that she wanted that. Her reason is because her parents had more experience in life and relationships. So far, she's been married for 10 yrs with two kids. Her husband isn't dogmatic. Her case isn't unique. 

(All in all, you're free to have your own opinions on this.)

@Key Elements oh! No no.. My 'sigh' was for my own joke which was in my previous post, I was making fun of myself.. Nothing related to what you've said, I'm sorry for the confusion..

Actually I was agreeing with you, and also I highly respect some of the principles blue stage brings; it's the wisdom of dharma. An arranged marriage can perfectly be a consciously chosen option. In most of the cases if we look at the stage blue societies, they are healthier than lost broken individuals' gatherings, since they have the natural tendency to value community; the point is all about our capability of producing the delicate organic balance between the individualistic major need for freedom and the vital urge for belonging and safety. 

Sorry again for the misunderstanding!

Buddhism is actually kind of yellow even though it's a religion.

@Leo Gura What about Martin Luther King? I thought he would’ve been a stage yellow guy.

He seems more Blue/Green to me. I don't know that much about him though.

@Karlos Totally forgot about Ben Smythe! Definitely a great example of Yellow, possibly moving into Turquoise (I think he's had some sort of awakening, not sure though).

Some people here seem to be confusing yellow with turquoise, and sometimes even first-tier levels.

That said, I am still integrating yellow, and it's really hard to find a single video-example of yellow, since it's such a diverse and multifaceted way of thinking. 

I really like the way David Foster Wallace goes meta and used to have the knowledge that he was not "the voice in his head".

Here is one great video:

@Leo Gura Would Ouspensky and Gurjeff be classified as deep Yellow?

[Leo Gura]

@Etherial Cat I would put Marcus Aurelius at Blue.

You have to understand that stages Green, Yellow, Turquoise basically did not exist 200+ years ago. At least that's according to the Spiral Dynamics model.

People from 2000 years ago lived in a radically different reality and culture. They were not like us today minus smartphones and cars.
