Throughout the day we are forced to participate in groups (meetings, church, school, families, work)
but not everyone knows how to function within a group.
Here are some helpful guidelines to spot if your “group” is supporting healthy mutuality.

For the infra red through orange levels of first tier evolvement….this might be funny.

Almost all ancient practices seem to be obsessed with the notion of immortality through esoteric ritual.
The Initiated ones (special) were processed via a hierarchy of procedures like a conveyor belt to heaven.
The lower level non-initiates were not permitted to access the secret codes.
If a higher level initiate observed a potential candidate, they would connect with the lower pre-initiate.
At a prescribed/approved time the pre-initiate would be invited to a prep/screening room for further evaluation.
Kind of like your modern waiting room at the doctor’s office.
Ever wonder why you had to sit there and wait even though you had a scheduled “appointment”?…
stay tuned…this is a work in progress.
The esoteric masters through ritual vowed to be keepers of secrets.
Modern science is shining a light into these dark places of hidden superstitions, bad science and ridiculous efforts.
Keeping peasants peasants is not contributing to the overall improvement of our chances of survival on this planet.
SO, I ask you all reading this…if you know someone locked in a peasant mind set, you have some quick tools at your disposal to help tip the imbalance.
Lets assume they can read.
There are many informative reading sources free and on the internet and in the libraries and homes of enlightening co-evolutionaries.
Aging from one point of view appears to be an increasing experience of imbalance.
But from another viewpoint it is an expression of existence.
Without an extensive interview, it is not wise to judge an aging body as a gauge of a persons level of development.
(All action/inaction is an attempt to restore homeostasis)
example: in chinese 5 element theory/(life cycle) philosophy..imbalances of Yin and Yang stresses the organs.
earth/spleen,
metal/lungs,
water/kidneys,
wood/liver,
fire/heart.
Governing channel controls yang organs: lungs, spleen, heart, kidneys, liver, circulation-sex. Tissues.
Functional channel controls yin organs: colon, stomach, small intestine, bladder, triple warmer, gall bladder. Blood.
The channel connector (acts like a switch) is the tip of the tongue with the palate of the mouth.
When properly practiced, a person can learn to charge themselves up or down.
This may be where the art of kissing developed. (an attempt at restoring homeostasis)
However, overuse (Abuse) of the 5 senses leads to degradation and energy loss.
When viewed through the lens of AQAL however, each perceived moment can be an opportunity to integrate (expand and include)
Without cultivating mindfulness meditation, it’s pretty much impossible to perceive the awareness of a moment arising.
So all developmental asset lists SHOULD include a meditation practice or a contemplative spiritual practice.
Timothy Ferriss author of 4 hour work week/body/chef….includes info about substituting wasted efforts of sleeping with periodic 20 minute naps which could be upgraded to 20 min meditation for the aspirant.
anyone actually seen winter yet?
are they tinkering with the weather?
The leading edge integral evolutionaries have created a clearer path for those interested in evolving more efficiently across all domains of human potential.
Vertical cross training.
Pick a practice from each level and nurture all of your being.
example: healthy physical body practices, healthy emotional body practices, healthy mind practices, healthy spirit practices, healthy soul practices.

IN case this pic is not clear, that machine is a leaf blower.
Ferriss scale of order of universes goes from sublime, ridiculous all the way to divine.
Here’s me being deliberately ridiculous.
