interesting. I'd say a life form that does not categorize could not exist... it would not be "alive". To be alive is to simplify a whole universe down to the part you find relevant to your survival... it must involve categorization therefore, to discriminate between the relevant factors taken into account and those ignored because they are believed irrelevant. Ultimately, nothing is completely irrelevant.
And not to take the light off of myself. I know I am flawed. Filled with fallacious thinking, personal neurosis, projections, etcetera. I make an effort to be aware of my shortcomings.
I know the way I went about this was not the best. Perhaps, I should make a more formal video challenge where I really get my hands dirty, instead of the halfassed incomplete thinking that I'm prone too.
All in all, I sincerely appreciate what you're doing. And I hope to advance the dialog as well
Hey man, i'm sorry.. I didn't for it to get so personal.. You know I like your videos. I've complemented you on them many times. I resonate with them very well. You're the closest thing I have to actually talking to ken himself here on youtube..
So I ask, please don't take this the wrong way. I'm really not trying call you out for no reason. I just have mixed feelings for the whole integral world in general. Which in nothing new really, there are plenty of integral critics.
The people that like the ideas that I'm sharing (which are not mine, i don't think any idea is 'mine') as well as the way im sharing them, well this is something they resonate because they have access to it already.
They see likable ideas or traits that are partially theirs, how else could they recognize them? The same goes for the unlikeable.
So if you don't like that I might use a catch phrase or mannerism from x person, there is something in you that isn't owning up to that part of yourself
I'm also saying I 'know' non dual, for the same reason.
Its like Ive visited a far off place like China, and return and try my best to describe this place using limited words, and you get a bad taste in your mouth.
What can I do? I'll probably just need to leave you be with your passive aggressive remarks and criticisms.
I only have x amount of energy and I'm not in the convincing department.
Your begging the question, because the more videos of yours I watch the more this strengthens my opinions about you.
I understand you have a bad taste in your mouth with my confidence revolving around enlightenment. Understand I am not claiming to be a fully enlightened, thats like saying "im fully educated"
What the hell does that even mean?
But I am saying I know oneness because Ive been there and visit 'it' quite often via meditation or contemplation.
i think I vaguely understand what you are saying, that we need to be familiar with concepts before we define their usefulness or purpose (is that right).. If that's the case, than I agree. It's like we are creating this new comlpicated languange almost.. My problem is the enormity of it all, whic breeds a feeling that most of it is futile
I rather be blessed then enlightened, but im happy with both.

the expansion is already much better explained via my videos. Grab some popcorn!

yes, we are creating a new language for heavily lifting in ideas as never seen before in the mainstream
