This is not a place for babysitting. Self-responsibility is something everyone should aim for. Read the forum guidelines for more info.

Science models reality as an attempt to describe it's "hows". To understand what reality is, you cannot rely on science. You need to understand that the search for Truth does not discredit science. Science has its place. You just need to be aware of the limits and the goals of science.

@Nivsch Do you want to dive deeper into Yellow? Then you gotta go meta. What's the grounding truth of any ideology? Is it possible to hold an absolutely true point of view?

Because the goal of the spiral dynamics model is to make people interested in integrating yellow and beyond. Keep in mind that the spiral dynamics framework itself is from the yellow stage. People from green and below will just adhere to their same sets of ideologies because they feel threatened by models that place them as "not the truth keepers".

Yes, a virtuous man can have those for a greater good (without harming anyone). I didn't say that spiritual purification excludes material success. I said that those are not the goal of spiritual purification. You can achieve material success due to other forms of seeking.

Should also create an account on a random MMORPG and play 24/7 to move up stages. See, you should not try to tell people what they should be interested in. Thirst for personal development is something that comes from within or from "accidental" events in Life. You can't just tell someone that likes football that football is bad. For the same reason, you can't just tell someone that doesn't like football that football is good. Well, technically you can tell them. It just won't work.

You can simply leave that group. Also, how can't you be interested in <insert random subject>?! You should be interested in <insert random subject>!

@theking00 What would you expect to be a trustworthy answer? In the end, it doesn't matter if I tell you "yes" or "no".

Focus on dropping your old mental patterns and changing yourself for the better. Pick some practical path like the yogic yamas and niyamas or the buddhist eightfold path. You don't need to reinvent the wheel. The wheel will reinvent you. Ask yourself "Why is this item important?", "Why shouldn't I lie?", "What is wisdom?" etc. Go beyond the mainstream ways of thinking.

Most people live in lower levels of consciousness. Learn to think by yourself. Don't be a believer. Be a challenger.

Short answer: yes. Somewhat longer answer: repressed emotions do cause diseases.

@sakevx Start by taking lonely walks.

You have no idea what you're talking about. Spiritual work will never satisfy the ego. It's quite the opposite! The undisciplined mind will find all sorts of reasons to protect itself and attach to any amount of beliefs. Honestly, I feel quite sad for you if you think that what happens to that guy is unfair. As if it were desirable! Pfff The path of spiritual purification is though. It won't give you pussy, fame, money or power. It's the path to become a virtuous human being. If you're not willing to forget who you think you are, this is the best moment to run.

You can't become what you already are. You can only experience and realize True Nature.

Not necessarily. And this is also a poor topic. Are you really that scared to accept your feminine side and let go of these alpha, beta, gamma, zeta concepts?

@Joshe Intellectual understanding is just a baby step. Developing the state of mind to appreciate Truth is the real thing.

@Anton_Pierre Let go of samadhi and embrace duality. It's is a miracle. Be honest with yourself. You don't seem like a person who wants to live like a monk.

@themovement In my experience, hypergamy was a pattern of the undisciplined mind, just like pornography, masturbation and alcoholism. Now that I am aware of True Nature, such sources of unfulfillment do not scratch me. It's been 4 years and getting better, more peaceful and joyful everyday.

Exactly that.

@StephenK Listen more. Say less. For real, try it.

I'm on the third season. It's indeed amazing.

There are some high level animes. I highly recommend Violet Evergarden as it offers a profound look at human emotions.

Expand your means of communication. Be water, adapt to your audience. Know your product and the product of rival companies. Be transparent. Understand the needs of your clients. Creating artificial needs in an ugly thing, imo. Always strive to work with high quality products. Change companies if needed.

Wow! Amazing content!

Where do you come from and how do you come to be?
