Spiral Wizards, what stage would you put this guy on?

[okulele]

There are more extensive videos about him on youtube. In his Vice documentary he says he is experiencing deep peace that he loves more than anything and would give up food and water for this peace. He seems quite awake? What stage would you put him on, since he is quite a special case?

He could be Purple and do that, so it doesn't really say much about his stage in the spiral. They aren't really related.

It is very possible that he might not fit the Spiral Dynamics model.

The Big Stage.

the island stage.

What's making him want to stay there?

[Hellspeed]

Too thin and malnourished, he looks like a slave.

He was probably tired of wage slavery.

Yeah, as I understand it, turquoise engages in society quite a bit.

Yep, that's what I think. He is quite a freak of the spiral!

He said he came for a bit and loved it so much that he stayed.

A slave to whom?

@okulele Spiral dynamic theory is based on social “memes”. How social systems condition individuals and evolution of conscious within inter-connected individuals and society. It’s as if we are all neurotransmitters to each other. 

Removing an individual from society and placing them in an island for 29 years isn’t really within tge parameters of SD and it would be difficult to evaluate such an individual.

Do you guys not realize what this whole concept of spiral dynamics is doing to you?

Labels, steps to achieve, ego, judgement of others, judgement of ourselves, judgement, expectations, stagnation with progress, disconnection from others, self serving mechanism for validation/invalidation, not simply being in the moment, duality... if we put too much emphasis on it.

They may have had something additional and/or different in mind when mentioned, but there are problems if you're not aware of how it can reinforce the ego.

I agree it’s really annoying
