You are all things at all times. You are incarnated as all living being simultaneously. There is nowhere to go because you already are everywhere and nowhere.
THIS. IS. ETERNITY!

He's critical of Green from above. And he's mostly talking about Green as it crops up in academia.
I think the thing he's overlooking is that our national politics is nowhere near as advanced as academia politics.
So while it makes sense to criticize Green academia from above, this creates confusion if people try to apply this more broadly to our national discourse. The national discourse is so regressive that it's got miles to go before it reaches solid Green. By over focusing on criticism of Green Ken might inadvertently play right into the hands of the status quo and the right-wing.
It's important to not draw a false equivalency between stuff like Fox News and excesses of academia. Whatever criticism academia deserves, stuff like Fox News deserves x10 more.

This is good.
But also, some girls need Words of Affection. Read the book: The 5 Love Languages. Learn to do Words of Affection because this is the top love language for many girls.

Its full power really shines on a week-long retreat.
Kinda tedious though.

Where does the now exist? Where does the universe exist? Where does anything exist?
No where

@Identity Problematic people exist on all sides, but not in equal proportion.
Racism and reverse-racism are not equivalent. Likewise with feminism and toxic masculinity.
Be careful with false equivalency. It's a very popular form of self-deception these days.

Yeah, you're terrified of genuine love. Selfishness & fear has prevented you.
Hehe, enlightenment and love are identical.
What you've truly longed for is a return to your true identity: as God
Right now you are a devil. As a devil you suffer from the disconnection from God's Love. But you don't know how to stop being a devil. You're too scared to surrender your devilry. So you're caught in bind. On the one hand you want God and Love, on the other hand you cannot stand giving up your devilry.

In other words, her and every other girl on the planet. LOL
She's insecure that you'll leave her so she wants pretty stories about why she's special and why you'll never leave her.
Of course don't tell her any of this, or she'll get upset. She doesn't want truth, she wants a fantasy. That's mostly what relationships are: mutually constructed fantasies of two people trying desperately to use one another to meet each others needs while desperately denying that this is what they're doing.
Women don't like being complimented on their looks because they know that looks fade and there's always someone better looking around. They want to be complimented on unique personality traits.
You gotta get more creative with your compliments.
"I really like your pussy" is not a good compliment to a girl. Find unique things about her to compliment. Maybe even some of her flaws.

It's unlikely that they would get schizophrenia, multiple-personality disorder, or OCD because those all tend to be dysfunctions of the ego mind. To become enlightened in the first place the person would have to heal and transcend those dysfunctions.
Alzheimer's is possible. It's basically just going to lower cognitive ability & memory.
As you age you will lose some cognitive ability and memory no matter what. It's just a matter of degree. The peak for cognitive ability is about age 30. It's down hill from there.

Put starkly, a "bad" thing is a thing which kills you. But once you're dead, how can anything be bad? If you cannot be harmed, bad cannot exist for you.
Now the trick is becoming conscious that nothing can harm you. If you manage to crack that nut, you'll only see Goodness.
God is that which cannot be harmed.
How can a gun shoot itself? A gun can only shoot that which is not itself. If it turns out that there is nothing other to it, it cannot be harmed.

A special attachment is formed which feels irreplaceable, yet it is replaceable and there's nothing objectively more special about one person than another.
It's the same as love for one's children. Your children seem special, but honestly, they are no more special than any hungry kid off the street. If you were truthful you'd admit it.
The ego creates this massive bias for the purposes of its survival. It's the epitome of selfishness.
You need to lie to yourself that your children are special, otherwise there'd be no compelling reason to protect them from annihilation.

Generally speaking no. Additional work is required.

Universal Law #1
“You exist…you always have and you always will. You are eternal.”
In other words, your fundamental nature is that of existence (rather than that of non-existence). You are a part of existence, therefore you are eternal, just like everything else. Existence is eternal, and since you exist, you are eternal as well!
Understanding this Universal law, I’ve found, is quite relieving. There is no need to fear your death or the idea of your non-existence, as you are eternal. It never ends, you keep on going and you keep on expanding.
So, if things aren’t going the way you’d “like” for them to, it’s ok! You have an eternity to figure everything out. Enjoy the ride!
 
Universal Law #2
“Everything is here and now.”
We are experiencing our consciousness through a created filter of time and space. However, this filter is simply a creation of ours that allows us to experience expansion in a linear fashion.
In “reality” everything exists in one place (here) and at one time (now). In addition, you only ever exist in this here and now moment.
Understanding this Universal law has been helpful to me, as it has helped me focus on the only thing that matters: NOW (without getting too caught up in what “was” or what “will be”).
Now is the only place you will ever be, and now is where 100% of your power is. Focus your attention here and now.
 
Universal Law #3
“The One is the All and the All is the One.”
Many people believe they are separate from the whole of the Universe. The entire Universe, it seems at times, is a bunch of stuff outside of “me.”
Other people, other worlds, god, spirits, etc, under this definition, feel like they are “outside” of us.
However, you ARE the entirety of existence functioning as YOU. I am the entirety of existence functioning as ME.
Understanding this Universal law has helped me in understanding that everyone I meet (here and beyond) is just ME from a different perspective. You are the me having the “you” experience, and I am the you having the “me” experience.
This is useful because it helps you understand that everyone is in this with you. We are all of the same thing, we all work together, we all need each other and rely on each other.
This fundamental law has made a massive improvement on the way I relate to other people, and to the divine.
 
Universal Law #4
“What you put out is what you get back.”
As a teacher of the Law of Attraction, I suppose you could say my predominant focus is Universal Law #4.
You are creating simply by getting back what you are putting out. If you are sad, reality matches you with “sad” scenarios and phenomenon in your reality. If you are happy, reality matches you with a “happy” reality.
Additionally, if you spend 90% of your time thinking about and focusing on your business, your business will take up approximately 90% of your life. If instead, you spend 90% of your time focused on your family, family will take up the bulk of your reality.
Further, if you judge others, they will judge you back. If you love others, they will love you back.
Call it karma, the Law of Attraction or Universal Law #4, there is no escaping the fact that what you put out is what you get back.
 
Universal Law #5
“Everything changes except for the first four…”
This final law describes the ever-changing nature of reality. No matter what we do, we are incapable of stopping change. 
Different faces, different places, different events, beliefs and ideas. Reality is constantly in flux and it is constantly expanding.
What we knew 50 years ago in many ways is highly irrelevant and inaccurate compared to what we understand today. Old information and technology is continuously revamped, improved and replaced.
Understanding this Universal law has been helpful to me, as it has helped me detach more from the idea of things needing to be constant or stable. It’s helped me move forward when things have changed, where in years past I would cling to what was.
If everything changes, and change is inevitable, you might as well go with the flow and enjoy the journey.
Just know that even though everything will change, the first four laws will remain constant no matter where you leap to next. In this way, you always have a map and you will always know what to do, no matter where the journey may lead you!

@How to be wise It's complicated and nuanced.
Take a look at Osho. He was obsessed with materialistic luxury even though he was supposedly very enlightened.
Take a look a Zen monks during WWII. They supported fascism and Japanese nationalism, even though they were supposedly enlightened.
Being awake does not mean you have an advanced mind or an advanced value system.

I don't waste my money. Someone else in my position would live much more lavishly than I do.
I could go buy a Lamborghini in cash tomorrow. But the thought doesn't even cross my mind because it's such a childish desire.

@How to be wise Strictly speaking Spiral Dynamics is tracking values development. Not necessarily moral development or spiritual development.
Many stage Blue yogis have an ethnocentric worldview. They could be very partial to Indian culture, holding it as superior to all other cultures. Even Sadhguru seems to not be immune to this trap to some degree.
Oddly enough, you can be conscious of Universal Love but still be a racist or misogynist. Childhood attitudes tend to run deep and enlightenment will not necessarily transform them automatically.

It's a mistake to try to map that to Spiral Dynamics. That's not what Spiral Dynamics tracks.
Many Indian yogis are Blue even though they could be enlightened or have amazing siddhis.
Many Japanese Zen masters are Blue too. Western Zen masters tend to be Green+

@gar-4-field Not wrong. Go enjoy some sex.
Will it fulfill you? Will it solve any existential problems? No.
But ignoring it would create its own set of problems.
Don't guilt yourself for wanting a girlfriend. Totally normal.

That's an illusion. You'll see.
She is precisely replaceable. Not only that, but you WILL replace her.
But for a short while you'll suffer. Because that's the nature of irrational attachment. Notice that when you put something up on a pedestal in your mind, you create your own suffering.
The whole key to dating women is: Don't get attached to her AT ALL until at least you sleep with her. Any attachment you create before that will only create needless suffering and usually ends up ensuring you never sleep with her.
All romantic love is pure illusion. It's as illusory as jerking off to a celebrity in your mind. Only here you're using a real person to jerk off into -- which allows you to fool yourself into thinking it is real. Nope. Still pure fantasy.

Las Vegas is a great city. Everything you need with none of the smog and traffic. And good weather most of the year except summer. Close to many national parks. Zero state income tax. The city itself is quite liberal.

Most drugs are illegal because parents are terrified of their kids doing heroin, crack, cocaine, & meth. And to be fair, this is a legitimate concern. These drugs can be extremely destructive. I have an extended relative in Russia who's a life long heroin addict. He's spent a few years in prison and still does heroin. It's ruined his whole life and he's a huge drag on his family because he cannot maintain a job.
Psychedelics got lumped in with all that.
The issue of heroin, crack, cocaine, & meth is tricky. How should we regulate such drugs? Do we allow them to be sold at the pharmacy? Do we ban them, creating a black market? It's bad either way. Ideally we raise the quality of our society such that people never want to do those hard drugs. But that's going to take centuries of growth. In the meantime it will be a problem either way.
People who get hooked on hard drugs usually don't have much of a life and little hope for a good future. They lack a positive life purpose to work towards. Society needs to provide people with more opportunities for success.
One thing is clear though, psychedelics need to be legalized and actually put to use for helping those hooked on heroin, crack, cocaine, & meth. That's a no-brainer. It's proven to work.

Get your blood work done. Check your thyroid and hormones. Many people have thyroid or hormone imbalances. Low energy is often associated with under-active thyroid.
Of course cleaning up your diet is very important. If you eat shit you will feel like shit. Stop eating all wheat products and all junk food. Carb heavy foods make you extra sleepy.
You should also do a urine test for heavy metal toxicity. Heavy metals like mercury and lead cause all sorts of energy problems. There are detox protocols for detoxing heavy metals if you have them.

If we injected snake venom into your veins, you'd also lose some control.
Physiology is more fundamental than your ego-mind.
More fundamentally, the whole notion of "control" is deeply dualistic and delusional.
If there exists only one thing in the universe: the universe itself, who controls it? Who controls the universe?

Everything you're aware of is the Absolute.
You have yet to realize that formlessness and form are identical.

Kriya Yoga
Psychedelics
Those are the two most powerful techniques I know of.
And also week-long solo retreats.
