@Bernardo Carleial Pretty incredible! I think about this all the time when I'm grocery shopping. I also love contemplating the logistics and systems thinking that goes into building a skyscraper. Simply astonishing and yet all easily explainable if broken down into small enough pieces

You're welcome my friend!

I'm glad you liked!??

I found that channel just recently , but I love the way by which he covers the logistics and the infrastructure of many activities and places in our lives!???

@Leo Gurahey leo, do you still think Obama is stage yellow or is he more green/orange? I have been watching some interviews of him and he's kind of hard to pin down.

He is hard to pin down.

I think his cognition itself might be Yellow. But in practice his public policies were more Orange/Green. I think he's a very nuanced and systemic thinker. But he may not be that great at playing politics and twisting nipples to get things passed. These are different skill sets.

The smartest and wisest people are not necessarily good politicians. I would be a horrible politician.

So would Einstein.

Einstein was offered to be the first Prime Minister of Israel. He declined.

Zubin seems pretty Yellow, talks about Non-duality, self-deception, taking science to the next level, etc etc.

The first president. Yes, that's true.

[Leo Gura]

Yeah, Zubin is a good example of Yellow.

This vMEME YELLOW/turquoise book is one of the most beautiful books I've ever read in my life.

"Why Materialism is Baloney" by Bernardo Kastrup provides a new metaphysical and ontological foundation with regard to consciousness, by the lenses of his analytical Idealism,  that mind is not subjective by matter, like the brain or an "outside world", but rather that brain and matter are experienced by the (Big)mind, and translated in our psyches through our egos.

Whatever I'll write here wouldn't do justice to describe how eye open this book was for me, it really gave me a new perception upon life and reality.

I'll leave you with one excerpt from the book:??

"The direct experience of freewill, however, remains ambiguous: before you make the choice it is not there; and then the very next experience seems to be already that of having made the choice. The experience of making the choice seems lost in a kind of vanishing in-between limbo, too elusive and slippery to catch at work.
It is as though freewill were outside time, only its effects insinuating themselves into time.

I contend that freewill proper is the primary cause of all movements of (Big)mind;
the freewill of the one subject of all existence. Freewill can never be experienced directly: it is the driving force behind all experience and, thus,never an experience itself. But we can infer its existence from the retroactive sense of free choice that we have immediately after making a decision.
This sense of free choice is, so to speak, the ‘echo’ of the primary cause reverberating within our psychic structures.

This may sound like a copout. But if the word has any meaning at all, freewill must not have any explanation, otherwise it wouldn’t be free."

This is a very good and unbiased video on the Venezuelan Crisis(which is quite rare...).

Incredible explanation of how telepathy is a "visual language" in the first 15 minutes. Psychedelics increase the awareness of changes in face, body, emotions and context (visual aspects of communication) to such an extent that telepathy (communication without deliberate signalling) is possible. In other words, the increased ability to empathize (to "feel the other") melts the interpersonal boundaries into a shared experience. It's not so much an ethereal transmission of thoughts as a synchronous cognitive construction caused by the increased fidelity of stimuli/perception and similar dictionary units (hence why friends and relatives are better at telepathy than strangers -- and empathy for that matter).

Very very similar to "Life Goes In Phases" but more broad, you can apply to alot of things. 

Very interesting to use this to think about the future of the US.

A very short paper on how to change systems using the 12 Leverage Points, by Donella Meadows. Very interesting stuff if you are interested in social change. Notice how different it is from the Green protest/revolution values.
