You dont want to die, you want to live better. Suicide is when you want to get away from uncomfortable feelings like depression and anxiety, the egos fantasy is that in death it will find relief, why not find relief here in life, change the feelings in your body and you will not want to die. Source: Was suicidal on and off for 10 years.

SD is about values, can you see the value of multiple perspectives, of integrating lower stages, of being radically open-minded? Then youre on the way to Yellow, you dont have to have high IQ, average is fine.

Great movie that shows the limits of Orange in the beginning of the 20th century. Also shows a historical transition from Blue to Orange and the conflicts that arise.

Thats a great idea! I definitely become more social when I have warmed up so to speak, I will have classes in uni before the date so maybe I can chat with some people there. Thanks for the tip!

I've been in a relationship before for 3 years but that didnt start with a date and we kind of knew eachother already, anyways I digress. I found a girl on a dating app and were going to get some coffee this week, I have never been on a real date before so I'm very nervous. Talking to someone on here I think could be helpful, what should I do to calm my nerves? What happens if I get in an akward silence? How do I end the date when I feel like we've gotten to know eachother and should meet again? Etc.

1 •You realize that ignorance is mostly cultural ...and that people have always lived in egoic bubbles constrained by time and place 2 •You put events into context 3 •You realize how privileged you are Peacetime, healthcare, laws, education, medicine, technology 4 •You learn funny stories Marat was a French revolutionary who had to spend his days in a bathtub because of a skin condition, in this bathtub he wrote polemics against the monarchy which influenced the revolution. 5 •You realize development is very geographical China is surrounded by the Gobi Desert, Himalayas and the Pacific Ocean and so was isolated from other nations for hundreds of years, which helped its development. 6 •You become less racist/nationalist (because you realize everyone contributed to our modern world) Did you know civilization was started by modern day Iranians, Indians, Egyptians and Chinese? 3000 years before Europeans came on the scene? Have you heard of The Golden Age Of Islam? Do you know who Zheng He is? Mansa Musa? Did you know Chinese invented gunpowder? 7 •You learn from past mistakes 8 •You understand how long it takes to build a country that lasts It took Europe 1500 years of conflict to become united. (Although Europe is not a country, you get the point) 9 •You become better at envisioning the future ...because you realize we will never peak, so many things have not been invented yet 10 •You realize everything is impermanent Empires rise and empires fall, glory fades. 11 •You become better at geography ...and perhaps you fall in love with the planet and its diversity of cultures and people 12 •You see the unity and division over time http://geacron.com/home-en/ 13 •It makes you want to explore the world 14 •You get shocked and inspired by the bravery of historical people Columbus exploring the ocean, Livingstone trekking through the African jungle, Gandhi almost starving to death for his countries freedom 15 •You realize there is no simple solution to building societies and countries, you become a more nuanced thinker 16 •You realize countries are just a concept and dont really exist 17 •You realize morality is relative to historical era 18 Our education system is way too limited in its scope of history ...why arent we learning about Asia? Middle-East? Mayans? Incas? Sumerians? Ancient Persia? Islam? 19 •You become a pacifist! 5000 years of bloodshed, cant we just talk it out this time?

Sometimes it feels like he just lashes out.
