Not really about enlightenment, but let's say spiritually refreshing. I love this band, and I know there are some out there who can see the same beauty and talent I see:

Why do you think girls are not attracted to you? Do you think this is because you're ugly, unfunny, too short, what?

Look them in the eye and say "what the fuck, are you really this childish? Grow up." And keep doing whatever you were doing as if you didn't care what you just said or what they might think about it. They might go quiet for a second. If somebody responds to it, and is anything less than apologizing, literally just don't acknowledge their words or presence at all. Don't even look at them, don't start arguing. Just keep playing the cards. Act like nothing happened.

https://www.actualized.org/insights/absolute-love Just wanted to share this here so that more people find it. Well done Leo, that was great. I had a funny feeling when I read it. It is such a direct and clear communication. I can feel something in me resisting it. Yet, I know it's the truth.

This is so stupid I can't believe it. Also, they fucked up green & yellow in this picture and it's driving me crazy:

At some point, you can't really deny anymore that these people also deserve love and goodness. Of course. Yet, we can't let people break the rules, since the rules make it possible for us to survive and create the good life. It doesn't really make sense to punish anyone. "You're bad because you broke the rules I believe in. You deserve a punishment." That's just silly. But we also can't let these people keep doing these things. So, what's the solution? How can we love, yet restrict freedom at the same time? What's the right balance here? Obviously there is no right answers. But I'd like to hear what you think.

What do you desire most in life? What do you want?

So I got a job as a journalist in a small local media association. I have no education in media or anything like that. The association decided to start a small group of young adults to basically just give us a chance to see what it's like to work in media. We can write articles, do short documentaries, even radio... Pretty much anything we want to do. We are also free to choose basically whatever subjects we want to work on, but our "boss" is a Vice / Vox fan, so that's the direction he is leading the project (and it's fucking awesome). So... I've got a voice! I have pretty much everything I need to spread my message. My question for you guys is: do you have any interesting subjects you think would be needed in the world today? Any advice for work like this? Our audience is not specific, but I'm pretty sure it's going to be mostly other young adults. Some subjects I've been planning on: - Role of drugs in art and creative expression - Generation Z politicians and their views - How to understand the culture war better (spiral dynamics) - Why are conspiracy theories so popular today etc. A few of these I've talked about with the boss and he seems to be on board. Some of them would probably be in a basic article form, some in column form. As you see, I have a lot of freedom in what & how to do it. In fact, almost too much freedom! I don't know what to do with it! Help!

Well yes, I understand and I agree that obviously we should not let people do anything they want. But as I understand the term "punish", it basically means a revenge. To put it simply: I dont think anyone deserves a punishment.

We are already doing that in Finland. Our goal is to be carbon neutral in 2035. Try to broaden your vision a little bit. Europe, our homecountries, are pretty much the most evolved places in this world. In a sense, we are the leading edge of societal and cultural evolution. Here's the deal: what else should we be doing than our best? Do you see any greater vision for us than this? We have the resources, the education, the expertise on ecology, biology, physics, sociology, economy, politics and a lot more. We could show others how it's done. What else should we be doing with our time? Watching Netflix on our 4K screens eating pizza? Is that the true potential of europe? Look at the younger generations. Many already see that 4K Netflix and a cool car ain't what gives you the good life. They are looking for a greater meaning and vision. Yes, some go for fascism and other regressive ideologies, but we can offer them something better. We gotta unite more, perhaps even push for federal europe. We can deal with this together. I cannot imagine a greater, more beautiful vision for my nation than to unite and take on this challenge along with you guys, and others. I want nothing less for Finland than to melt in love for humanity, with you. That I think, is our true potential. And I bet it's the same for Germany too.

Oh my God. Just as I was reading this, I looked at the clock on the upper corner of this screen as a joke, kinda had this funny feeling. 2:22 This is so crazy. I've been constantly seeing number 2 everywhere for a couple of years now. Been wondering what it means. I guess this is it.

lol

More like tired of what I used to think was spirituality. Thoughts and beliefs about the ego, awakening, states of consciousness, stages of development, self-deception, survival, psychedelics, duality, oneness... These feel so limiting. At least the way I see them, it's such a burden. I'm starting to get sick of it. Obviously I've been doing something "wrong". These are great tools! You never see a human being, life and society the same. But life is here and now. I wanna live it. The map is not the territory! I've been opening up lately like never before. Something has changed. I see how much was based on simple emotional troubles. And as you let go, the more truth shines. Can't really express what I want to say. It's like the first rays of sun after a long dark cloudy night. I bet some of you understand. I'm just fucking done with it. I don't wanna be "spiritual". I don't wanna be "awake" or "highly conscious" or "selfless". I just wanna live. I wanna go see the mountains and beautiful trees and have a few laughs and tears with friends. That's the stuff.

No gain in pain. There is no 'spiritual evolution'. There is no goal for God & creation somewhere. If there was a goal, an ultimate end result, why wouldn't it already be the case? I'm telling you, it is. What a weird theory. Why are you holding and advocating for such a limiting and doleful belief? No wonder you find it hard to swallow. Try eating something better.

@Consilience You too been doing better after taking it?! What's in this stuff??

I took the first dose a few months ago. I've since been more connected than ever before. It is the rigid beliefs and thoughts that are "cutting you off" from the love/light.

@Heinrich Faust Yes, I've noticed the same thing. For me, it seems like these types are not really yet solid Green. They have some Green ideals, but they are in a sense quite childish and not really thought through. It's like they confuse Green ideals with Turquoise. I often see that they use certain Green perspectives just to hold onto their beliefs. It is very common to hear "This is my truth. You got your own truth, and we are equal." They don't really think that deeply, they just say it when they feel threatened. That's one of the dysfunctional characteristics of stage Green in general, but in my experience it's most apparent in new-age circles. They often mask themselves as selfless, spiritual, holistic, conscious etc. Yet, you often see quite rigid beliefs about morality, individuality, freedom, democracy etc. They are not yet done with Blue & Orange. I often get a feeling that these new-age types are in fact more dysfunctional and imbalanced than they would like others to see. They might be hiding certain problems behind their beliefs. But not all of them! Some new-agers are truly solid and healthy Green. I love 'em. They are often far less political and rigid with their beliefs.

I recently saw a TikTok video from a dude who was discharged from the US military for refusing the vaccine. Think about it. This guys job was to be ready to kill & die for his country in battle, but refused to take a vaccine against a pandemic which has already killed more americans than the first & second world war, Vietnam war, 9/11 and Iraq war combined.

A bit off-topic, but I assume you mean MAGA/Conservatives with the "radicalizing"? What is it like? Is there violence? Organized groups? What does it look like? I'm asking this because it is very different to hear from someone actually seeing it happen rather than just read it from the news and social media.

In Finland, we got Kristallipuolue (Crystal Party ) Pretty much the basic new-age-qanon-evil media-stuff: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_Party

❤️❤️❤️

Yes, I see the same thing. It's often too clinical here. I'd like more emotion and playfulness. A little bit of fairie magic:

Jeez. Always the "masculine jerks get all the girls" thing. This is not true. I know this for a fact. I've had many intimate relationships. All of them has been what you may call "quality women". I am not a jerk, an asshole, or even very masculine. In fact, my appearance is quite feminine. Yeah, sure the super masculine & good-looking social wizards gets more sex. Yet, there are women for others too. You don't need to be drowning in supermodel pussy. Here's what actually gets you laid: - Confidence - Meeting actual people - Social skills and some intuition - Feeling good about yourself - Good hygiene That's it. The problem today, is that many young men are not checking those boxes.

You are holding narrow, or lower perspectives. The 'higher' a perspective is, the wider it is, the more truth, well-being, love and unconditionality it "holds". The 'lower' a perspective is, the narrower it is, the more falsehood, fear, stress, and conditions it "holds". The smaller the hole is, the less light/love gets through.

Is there any perspective you can find that makes you see more unity, more healing, more love in this world?
