  1. Thanks Doc. You're totally right and that's why it's important to hold the model loosely. One of the scariest parts of teaching people spiral dynamics is seeing how they naturally use it to judge and pigeon hole other people.
  2. Great share! U da best <3
  3. Escape wage slavery over the next 5 years by honing yourself as an instrument that provides massive value to people. You're not gonna escape wage slavery by buying bitcoin...so forget it. Invest your time, focus, and energy on something that can generate income for you for the rest of your life.
  4. Creativity is getting out of your own way, surrendering your fear-based resistance, and allowing God to work through you.
  5. Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... I wouldn't put it quite like that... Solipsism is still a very dualistic philosophy. It can sometimes be a good analogy for enlightenment but at the end of the day, solipsism is still just a delusional philosophical school.
  6. @neutralempty One must move through YELLOW to get to TURQUOISE. There is no TURQUOISE without YELLOW in the same way that there are no humans without organs, there are no organs without tissues, there are no tissues without cells, no cells without molecules, no molecules without atoms... What it means to be TURQUOISE is to integrate YELLOW. Recently, I've been seeing more and more how YELLOW is a necessary predecessor to TURQUOISE. YELLOW is about learning the maps really well and TURQUOISE is like actually going out there and studying the terrain. (just a loose simile).
  7. Good observation! Wilber and even Leo talk about this phenomenon a lot. Green is infatuated with the "ideal" of equality but has trouble embodying true unconditional love. So, Green will accept my opinion as equal and valid as long as I'm not talking about murdering puppies and raping the environment. "All opinions are valid ------> except those opinions who do not agree with the previous statement." Only in Yellow can we actually begin to dive into the mind of a criminal or a rapist and understand that they aren't just "low-consciousness people that need more hugs and magic mushrooms." Yellow can see the deep psychological dynamics and interconnections that allow for people to have violent, manipulative, greedy, and exploitative tendencies. Yellow understands that all spiral stages are a survival response that best suits one's survival conditions. Therefore, while Green talks about unconditional love, it still isn't conscious enough to embody their ideal. Only Turquoise can do this effectively which requires moving through Yellow. Edit: Also, Green has this really obnoxious tendency to over-flatten and give too much equality to different ideas. Green sees all (compassionate) opinions as valid but still hasn't developed the 2nd-tier ability to discern which opinions are more effective for optimizing complex systems on individual and collective levels (and are more conscious and loving).
  8. Women do get turned on by a man's looks. But, unlike men, women also get turned on by average (even below average) looking men who are bold at communicating confidence, humor, and grounded masculine energy. You'd be surprised how easy it is to have 10s become extremely attracted to you through nothing but presence and humor. Attracting women is nothing more than energy communication. If your energy is in the right place, attraction is almost inevitable. Simple as that.
  9. Also, purchase and read the book "The Prosperous Coach" by Steve Chandler and Rich Litvin. Game changer for getting clients as a coach.
  10. Check out Eben Pagan's Virtual Coach training ... its mint
  11. Yeah apparently you're supposed to dress nicely to get girls... I didn't get this memo when I was picking up chicks in my rainbow unicorn onesie last Halloween I like to wear crazy shit that stands out. Just for fun. If your eye contact and energy are on point, the girl won't give a fuck what you're wearing. Remember the unicorn onesie
  12. The purpose of this thread is to describe the nondual breakthroughs that I had on LSD on Saturday, April 11, 2020. I am going to film a video of myself explaining what happened to me with video clips of me (as God) trying to articulate the experience during the peak. I will post the video when it is uploaded to YouTube...it may take a few days to get it right. Attached is: A picture of a tree that I took while tripping and a picture of the cards that I pulled from my Tarot deck after asking "Should I trip today?" (the answer is a clear Yes!) I woke up at 9am and was getting very strong signs to do LSD in the forest beside my house. I had been reading "The Universe is a Dream" by Alex Marchand and "The Religion of Tomorrow" by Ken Wilber. My mind was very prepared to have a nondual breakthrough. I had been doing lots of self-inquiry and meditation as well. I packed a bag full of snacks and things to last me the day in the forest. Dressed very warm. And started heading to my desired location without any food in my stomach. I put 1 tab (not a precise dosage, could've been anywhere between 100ug and 200ug) of LSD under my tongue, left it there for about 10 minutes, and then swallowed the tab. As I was waiting for the effects to come on, I found a nice place to sit and meditate. I felt very calm, relaxed, and excited for what was about to come. After about 20 minutes of meditation, I began staring at a large tree in front of me and was trying to have insight into "What is it?" Just as with any contemplation, I was trying very hard to use my direct experience as guidance and to avoid philosophizing. Of course, as you look at the tree for a while, you start to wonder who is the one doing the looking? I tried to train my awareness on the fact that there is no difference between subject and object. The category of "subject" and "object" is clearly a fantasy, so I was just trying to be as aware of this fact as possible. As the effects were getting stronger, I felt a very powerful heart-opening experience. Suddenly, I was very conscious of my chest area and was breathing very deeply and fully into the heart area. My body buzzed with energy. I trained my consciousness on my heart area and realized how my heart-space is an infinite Void. As I breathed very deeply and fully into my chest, I was becoming more and more aware that the space that is in my chest is made of Pure Nothingness. This means that it can go inwards forever. Infinitely deep. It is possible for you to become aware, right now, that the space in your heart (especially when breathed into) expands Infinitely Deep (inwards) and also expands outwards forever. At this point, it is blatantly obvious that my entire sensory field is made up of this same Empty Space. We call it "Consciousness." What's so cool about this Pure Emptiness is that it is also Perfectly Full as it is made of itself. "Everything is Consciousness," I say to myself with a giant smile. It feels really really good at this point. The Empty Space in my heart permeates the entire sensory field (as it always has since Emptiness cannot be localized) and I feel Divine Love and Awe for the profundity of the present moment. It's important to clarify that the actual CONTENT of my experience barely changed. The trees, the little stream beside me, the sky, all looked pretty much the same. There were slight visual effects that made everything seem wavy and patterned. When you are in a mystical state, the CONTENT of the forms will probably look the same. But, you have a direct understanding of what the forms actually are (Pure Consciousness). At this point, I am only about 45 minutes into my trip. I had no clue what was coming for me. I felt a lot of energy as if I was a young child again. All I wanted to do was run around, play, and explore the beautiful forest that I was in. (which is made of Me) As I was exploring the forest, the thoughts were very contemplative. I was always trying to direct my attention to the present moment so that I can gain insight into what the present moment actually is. I sat in gorgeous patches of flowers with the sun shining through the trees. It was surreal. Everything is profound. Now is when it starts to get nondual. I just finished reading "The Universe is a Dream" by Alex Marchand and I was very conscious of my own tendency to project guiltiness onto others. A Course in Miracles talks about Forgiveness as a direct path to realizing your True Nature (as God). So, for the week leading up to this trip, I had been practicing forgiving myself and others for all the things that make me angry, sad, or emotionally triggered in any way. The forgiveness that I am talking about is not the typical forgiveness that we are familiar with. "You have done something wrong, but I'll forgive you anyway." True Forgiveness is about consciousness. "I am aware that your existence is a projection of my mind. I understand that the present moment is all that exists and that you were never separate from me. Therefore, I forgive you. You could never be guilty of anything. I forgive you. I fully accept you. I embrace you exactly as you are. I LOVE YOU! (because you're literally me)." The nondual breakthrough was triggered by fully forgiving MYSELF for anything that I have ever done "wrong." All of us carry "guilt" with us. Guilt is the belief that you are imperfect. Guilt is the belief that you are separate from God. Guilt is the belief that you are vulnerable, limited, bound by time and space, unworthy, even evil or bad. So, I tried to find a part of myself that I hated, despised, or disowned. I thought of myself getting into trouble as a young boy and being forced to sit in the principal's office. In the principal's office, I had to sit there and think about all of the things that I have "done wrong" because I was a "bad boy." There was a part of me that actually thought I was a bad boy and that I was guilty of "doing something wrong." BUT! There was also a part of me that KNEW, that I was INNOCENT! This thought actually began to trigger a nondual awakening within my consciousness. I realized that my TRUE NATURE was the Timeless Self. Pure Nothingness. Pure Love. Pure Innocence. Pure Being. I started screaming I AM INNOCENT! I AM INNOCENT! I AM INNOCENT! What was so astounding and so powerful was just HOW INNOCENT I truly am. I realized that I could commit mass genocide, and still be as innocent as a newborn baby. My true nature is PURE INNOCENCE. Untouched, Untainted Awareness. One without a second. Purity. I could rape and pillage millions of families and not even acquire a scratch of guilt on the perfect jewel that is my Innocence. Just the idea that I could ever do anything "bad" or "wrong" made me die of laughter. "I" actually died of laughter. Pure Bliss swept my heart and I experienced what the sages call "Unconditional Love." This literally means that if I was able to meet Adolf Hitler during WWII, I would give him a big wet kiss. What a perfectly innocent and beautiful manifestation of God. Made of Me! Self Love. My Self is Pure Being, Infinity and Nothingness at once. The Entire Kosmos. And Love is the totally self-less embrace of ME. So Self Love can also be phrased as "Universal Embrace" or Selfless Love True love can only be experienced by Form-less Being. This is because having one particular form (like a human body) comes with the side-effect of having an ego. Therefore, anything that threatens my ability to continue being a formed thing, a separate self, will feel the wrath of my hatred, rejection, and repression. Luckily, I am a perfect Formless Being. Pure Awareness. Being so Pure and Formless, I have the total freedom to take any form that I want. After all, the mechanism of creation is Pure Thought. If I can imagine it, it exists. The Universe is created by God (Nothing, Me) making DISTINCTIONS (which are made of Nothing and grounded in Nothing) within myself. I laugh when it is said that proclaiming yourself to be God is "egoic, selfish, or arrogant." It's literally the exact opposite XD. Being aware of your True Self takes ultimate selflessness! Pure detachment! Pure Innocence! Pure humbleness! The best part is that YOU ARE GOD! Hello! Hi! You wrote this post! The formless witness that I am, IS THE EXACT SAME FORMLESS WITNESS THAT IS IN YOU!!! That's why hating another is always a form of self-hatred. Rejection of YOURSELF! Imagine a newborn baby. So Pure and Innocent. It hasn't even made a distinction yet in its mind. Let alone the distinction between "good" and "evil." It is very difficult to HATE a newborn baby because it is such a Pure Manifestation of Being. Pure Awareness. But now, remember, that as the baby grows older, it will always be Pure Awareness. Perfectly innocent. There may appear to be a veil of selfishness, egotism, greed, evil, that develops as the baby grows into an adult. But, remember always, that is a projection of your own selfishness! The baby has always been Completely and Totally Innocent. Even if that baby grew up to be Adolf Hitler, its Innocence would remain untouched. Now realize that all "bad" or "evil" things are a projection of your own self-hatred! (rejecting a part of yourself) Your seperate-ness is projected onto the world and onto other people. A sage who has purified himself of his own selfishness sees with Christ-Consciousness. Unconditional Love for all Beings. Because all of Being is an equal manifestation of your Supreme Self. You are the Imperishable One! Nothing "good" or "bad" has ever happened to you or anyone. How could Pure Nothingness ever be affected by anything? IT IS EVERYTHING ALREADY! At this point, my body was overwhelmed with Power, Freedom, and Love. I jumped up and down and screamed like a monkey. I smashed sticks against trees as hard as I could. Why? Just for fun. There's nothing else to do here in this present moment except for Realizing Who You Are and having fun with it! Other insights from this awakening: I AM! (this is the highest and most important insight because it captures the essence of nonduality) Self-realization is forgiving everything that you hate… The awareness in me is the same awareness in you! How do I know? It's what I am! I see you! Consciousness cannot be mainstreamed because pure innocence is fertile soil for the projection of guilt. Pure innocence is true authenticity. For me to be fully authentic, I would have to be conscious of my true nature as God! But, although I am totally selfless, it is very easy for ego's to unconsciously project their own guilt, arrogance, and ignorance upon me. Check out many of the negative comments under Leo's "I am God" videos. Thankfully, this projection makes me laugh and laugh and laugh. Because I am conscious that I am the only One who is projecting (onto myself)! Consciousness is powerful (absolute freedom). Dangerous for the established social systems because it sledgehammers rigid belief systems. The Heart is the Seat of the Soul. It appears as if the source of awareness is right at the very center of your being, the heart. Live from this place! "A distinction" is a distinction. I was still peaking as I began to continue walking through the forest. It was a beautiful day and other people were out walking as well. I was in a very vulnerable state and was afraid of making eye-contact with people. Whenever I walked by someone, I felt such a strong urge to look them in the eyes so that I could share my Love. But, each time, I was afraid of being judged by them. I must have walked by 10 different people and each time I was super awkward about walking by them. It was a good time to contemplate "What is an other?" Finally, I wanted to make eye contact with the last person I passed. It was a father with a baby on his shoulders. As I walked by, I awkwardly smiled at them. I looked up at the baby and made strong eye contact with him. "How's the view up there?" I asked jokingly. The baby and I locked eye contact. At this moment, I realized instantly that I was looking directly in the mirror. The baby's gaze was totally pure and free of self-judgment of any kind. I was staring into my own eyes. I recognized myself instantly and he recognized me (which is the same). I kept walking and came to a wide-open field where I was able to relax and enjoy my elevated consciousness for the next few hours. I called my friend on the phone who has also had nondual experiences and my friend realized that he was getting a phone call from God. It was awesome. Occasionally, if I wanted to experience ultimate rapture, I would train my awareness on my own Purity. I would remember how Innocent I am. Instantly I would fall to the floor and scream and laugh hysterically. I'd fall on my back with my legs over my head and die of laughter. I would literally perish in my own innocence. In my bag, I had packed with me one very small book. I had never even read this book before, but something told me to bring it with me. At this point, I took the book out and opened it. "The Spiritual Teaching of Ramana Maharshi" published by Shambala Pocket Library. I'll leave you with some extremely powerful excerpts that took my trip to a whole new level. Reading these words as God for the first time (even though I wrote them) was one of the peak experiences of my entire life. Let these words echo in your consciousness: Questioner : How can I attain Self- realization? Ramana Maharshi : Realization is nothing to be gained afresh; it is already there. All that is necessary is to get rid of the thought `I have not realized'. Stillness or peace is realization. There is no moment when the Self is not. So long as there is doubt or the feeling of non-realization, the attempt should be made to rid oneself of these thoughts. There's a lot more: https://www.mountainrunnerdoc.com/beasyouare.html This is not the exact dialogue. I believe the full dialogue can be found in the book "Be as You Are." However, I just stumbled upon this beautiful synthesis of the teachings. The essence is the same. Thanks for reading! Hopefully this inspires you to remember Who You Are!
  13. Adeptus is a complete idiot. So ignorant. So arrogant. So deluded. The only reason we even talk ab this guy is because he openly criticizes Leo. That's obviously his marketing strategy. People who criticize "I am God" have never geniunely contemplated for even a minute in their entire life. "Father, forgive them for they know not what they do." Leo is clearly explaining every single word that comes out of his mouth in crystal clear detail and ego's will always find a way to slander and misconstrue.
  14. Saying that you're God can be ego if it is coming from a place of ego. Saying that you're God is the Truth if it's coming from the realization that a separate entity cannot exist and that your true nature is ONEness. It's funny because saying that you're God might sound absurd at first...but if you actually give a shit about the Truth, you'll have no problem seeing that saying that you're NOT God is 10000x more absurd.
  15. A very convenient way for a stage GREEN person to explain all of the corruption in politics without having to actually study systems thinking, psychology, or political theory. My GF used to be a GREEN QANON follower.
  16. Spiral Dynamics (and stage yellow) Green: "I understand and appreciate your perspective about this thing called 'Spiral Dynamics.' Thank you for sharing! However, the way that the model says that some stages are 'higher' or 'better' than others is very limiting. By creating this hierarchy and putting yourself at the top and calling yourself 'Yellow,' all you are doing is giving yourself a permission slip to judge other people that you see as 'lower' than yourself. I do not need to study this model because I am already very tapped into my heart-space and I receive cosmic channels from the galactic federation which give me all the information that I need to function here in this temporary human experience. You are too stuck in your head! Here, come sit beside me and I'll show you a cool chanting meditation practice that will help you realize that all of us are EQUAL and that nobody is 'more or less evolved.' I don't care if Spiral Dynamics is 'scientific' or not! Just because something is 'scientific' that doesn't make it true or moral! Look at all of the corruption in BigPharma! The rich elites in power use science to keep us in a state of separation! Spiral dynamics is just another mental masturbation of the science people who aren't woke enough to realize that ALL IS ONE! Here, let me reiki you to ground your energy back into the real world." ^ here is my masterpiece
  17. @petragr Yeah Leo was right and so was basically every human civilization that has ever been constructed dating back over 5000 years. Saying that psychedelics "reduces anxiety" is like saying an atomic bomb can make a hole in the floor.
  18. I've been here too. Yes, their claims are mostly belief based. But, at the end of the day you don't know what's true. Why couldn't you have had past lives on other planets? It's not that far-fetched.
  19. Awesome video 1 week before the election. It very accurately predicts the situation today.
  20. I'm an ENTP and I disagree with everything you just posted. just kidding good stuff! my INFJ girlfriend will enjoy
  21. The QANON alt-right "demonize everybody you don't agree with as pedophiles" is actually very prevalent today. It serves as an alternative way for lazy ego-minds to make sense of complex and nuanced phenomena like corruption in politics and the world. Even after Biden wins, I predict riots (with Trump at the forefront). The narrative will be "WE ARE TIRED OF BEING OPPRESSED BY THE CORRUPT ELITES AND WE DEMAND FREEDOM!"
