Yeah, but notice how you create an attatchment to not having an attatchment to exellence. You want to overcome the need, but whats wrong with needing it? What does you needing excellence tell you about yourself? What does it create? Really contemplate these 3 questions. From what you have told us, it almost seems like you're running away from the same thing that you run away from when you chase excellence. What do you think about that? @SLuxy

Notice how the need to let go of the desire to be excellent is an attempt to be excellent. What's wrong with being excellent? Ask yourself that. The answer might surprise you.

It might be that your mind is more dynamic and that you should try to work with it instead of against it. This video changed my life. It made me realize that there are multiple roads to success and that one should choose an approach based on one's personality and personal strengths.. not based on how it is expected. Also, if you're learning something new and you're not super gifted in it, you may experience it to be more taxing and may not be able to do it for such a long time in the beginning. I for example couldn't study math for more than 30 min at a time in the beginning, but as I learned more I could practice longer periods becuase it becomes more effortless and you get in the flow. Lastly.. Meditation. It helps a lot.

@flyingguitarist I am an INFP actually! Have you done the big five factor test? I think it would give you a lot of insight. If you for example score high on disagreeblesness that in itself gives you a pretty good indicator that you probably are a thinker and not a feeler type. I would personally love to see your score on the big five to see how that relates to your top 10 values so if you have that and are willing to, feel free to share!

Some context. Ralph Smart promotes anti vax conspiracy theorys and that the government puts chips in your body via vaccines. I was therefor surprised that Sadhguru decided to be interviewed by him, yet I at the same time get it. It's super counterintuitive and ingenious move. The interview itself is great but where the real lesson in epistemology comes in is in the comment section. It's hilarious, yet at the same time frightening to read how some people can get it so backwards.?

Bahahaahha

No. Sadhguru gave a hint that politicians are not evil monsters but that was about it.

Yeah, it's almost like their own stage orange shadow which is money and selfishness is projected outwards so they come to belive that other people want control, power and money when it instead is they themselves that want it but deny it. The anti vax hipsters is like a 180 degree reaction against what is not " meaningful" which to them Is the 3D world but then at the same time hold beliefs that everything that is meaningful is power, money ect.. cause that's what they are focused on. They think that it is them, the enlightened wokesterz who don't care about power VS shallow Sociey.. yet they are the one who focuses on what the ego wants. It's facinating!

@flyingguitarist I see, so you hoped that you by asking this question would gain insight about your personality type based on how people would analyze your cognitive functions by the information of your top strengths? And yeah, I agree - but notice how in the case of your strength it can be very easy to see that you definitely is introverted, intuitive and thinking and even judging. Is it super reliable, hell no! Especially not scientifically but it can give you some hints as to what you can look to investigate more in - sometimes! For fun, try it with my values. Can you guess my MBTI? 1: Truth 2: Self actualization 3: Understanding 4: Freedom 5: Conciousness 6: Self expression 7: Love 8: Excellence 9: Connection 10: Exploration

First of, thank you for sharing. You seem to have a lot of self awarness and insight. It's very inspiring to see. Secondly, What do you think about feminine men and masculine woman? I mean preform is equal to conform for you. What about those people that don't fit your own ideas about how one should be? Do you look up to those people or down on them?

Which personality type do you hate the most?@PepperBlossoms

Parts work is one of them I think. Also, stop trying to love yourself, try to understand yourself instead. Love is a consequence, not something you actively do.

If you cant stand other's personality, you can't stand your own. My guess is the different parts of yourself with different personalities fight and separate from eachother, which basically means that all your differnt parts hate eachother. It is a self hate from the different aspects of yourself that then is projected outwards.

Yeah of course lol. I wanted to see how bad or good my guesses could be based on just going with intuition. What is your personality type?

Well you gotta be I becuase of your strength of introspection and N because vision and art and shit, T becuase of courage and J becuase you have a strength in self control. ( but you could be P aswell so I'm not sure about the last one, you could also be a INTP. Pm me if I'm right or not@flyingguitarist

INTJ

I remember when he said something a long the line of " I have not the slightest interest in investigsting what the new UFO phenomenon is" That statement itself tells us that he is not a serious scientist. He is not interested in truth at all, all he wants to do is ego trip on his science and ideology. He should try comedy instead

I love the spiral dynamics topic. When you have something, throw the link up here. This sounds awsome.

I share direct insights that give people hope through wisdom.

My best advice is to introspect in the different parts of your psyche and how you can learn the parts to work together.

It's the love that you think denied you, but that you denied yourself - in yourself.

I´m going to stop talking for 14 days to rest my voice. To summarize one could say that I did what you shouldn´t do. I Screamed a lot and then tried to sing after my voice was gone. My voice is now raspy and to hopefully let it recover I´m going to stop using it for 2 weeks. I´ll try to post my thoughts about this experience ( being silent for 14 days) when it´s done but in the meantime, I would love to hear what you guys think about the spiritual practice of shutting the fuck up and being quiet. Do you know any traditions were not talking for a long period of time is a spiritual practice? Does something like this exist?

Thats so cool!!

https://youtube.com/shorts/m3ymUOYl99s?feature=share He mentioned it briefly. This is getting so exciting.. psychedelics might be the gateway drug for humanity's awakening. It's atleast, our best shot...

No I haven't. Should I?
