LEVELS (Basic Version)

Summary

Скрипт видео рассматривает уровни мышления, которые влияют на поведение и развитие человека. Основой модели является работа исследователей, таких как Жан Пиаже и Абрахам Маслоу. Автор делит уровни на пять основных, каждый из которых представлен с примерами и объяснениями. Также рассматриваются проблемы, связанные с более высокими уровнями мышления, включая отсутствие объективности и относительность морали. Видео призвано помочь зрителям разобраться в собственных уровнях мышления и способах их развития.

Takeaways

• 🧠 Уровни мышления - это теоретическая концепция, которая помогает объяснить поведение и взгляды людей.
• 📊 В видео используется диаграмма, представляющая модель сознания с четырьмя квадрантами, уровнями, линиями, состояниями и типами.
• 👶 Каждый человек начинает с низкого уровня психического развития и может достигнуть различных стадий в зависимости от окружения, выборов и генетики.
• 🌐 Квадранты представляют разные способы восприятия реальности: ум, мозг, культура и общество.
• 🚀 Люди развивают способность мыслить на более высоких уровнях, используя каждый день более низкие уровни, например, при физических потребностях.
• 🌟 Уровни развития не ограничиваются географией; современное общество чаще всего находится на высоких уровнях, где доминирует глобальное мышление.
• 💡 Высший уровень не всегда означает лучшую или более эффективную личность, а означает более широкий кругозор и осведомленность.
• 🌱 Различные уровни сознания связаны с различными моделями развития, такими как теория иерархии потребностей Маслова.
• 🛡️ Уровень развития влияет на способность человека видеть сложность и взаимосвязь проблем, что может помочь в решении сложных задач.
• 🌐 Уровень пятый вводит объективное наблюдение и понимание культуры от внешнего наблюдателя, что способствует глобальному мышлению.
• 🤔 Уровень шестой осознает роль субъекта в наблюдении и понимает, что различные субъекты могут иметь разные восприятия объективности.
• 🔄 Второй уровень сознания (уровни семь и выше) предполагает гармонизацию и включение всех предыдущих уровней, что позволяет различным системам существовать в гармонии.

Q & A

Что такое уровни мышления, о которых говорится в видео?

Уровни мышления - это стадии психологического развития, изучаемые многими исследователями. Они описывают способы, которыми мы воспринимаем и реагируют на мир вокруг нас на разных этапах жизненного пути.

Какие известные модели развития упоминаются в видео?

В видео упоминаются модели развития, основанные на работах Джеана Пиаже и Абрахама Масло, известных своей иерархией потребностей.

Какие четыре кваранта в модели сознания упоминаются в видео?

В видео упоминаются четыре кваранта: ум, мозг, культура и общество, которые представляют различные способы рассмотрения реальности.

Чем отличается уровень 'survive' от других уровней?

Уровень 'survive' - это базовый, моментальный уровень, связанный с немедленными потребностями, такими как еда и сон, без учета чувств и потребностей других людей.

Какие вещи подразумеваются под уровнем 'connect'?

Уровень 'connect' связан с пониманием, что у других людей тоже есть умы и потребности, и что наши действия могут влиять на них и на то, как они нас воспринимают.

Что такое уровень 'control' и как он проявляется в современном обществе?

Уровень 'control' связан с осознанием сложных социальных связей и способностью управлять своими ситуациями и влиять на окружающих, что часто встречается в современном обществе, например, в мафии, спортивных командах и армии.

Какие характеристики отличают уровень 'belong'?

Уровень 'belong' характеризуется стремлением вписаться в группу, сфокусированным на взаимопонимании и социальных нормах, что было характерно для средневековых империй и национальных государств.

Что такое 'Дипломат' и как он связан с уровнем 'belong'?

'Дипломат' - это название вступления на уровень 'belong', связанное с акцентом на приемлемом поведении и социальных нормах, которые помогают преодолевать проблемы предыдущих уровней.

Какие проблемы могут возникнуть на уровне 'individualist'?

На уровне 'individualist', или индивидуалистском уровне, возникают проблемы с отсутствием четких критериев 'правильного' и 'неправильного', что может привести к отсутствию целостности и направленности в жизни.

Чем отличается 'Глобальное мышление' от предыдущих уровней?

Глобальное мышление начинается с уровня, на котором понимается, что у каждого человека есть своя точка зрения, и что нет абсолютного 'правильного' или 'неправильного', а существует множество подходов, которые могут работать в разных культурах и общественных контекстах.

Что означает уровень 'harmonize' на диаграмме уровней?

Уровень 'harmonize' связан с пониманием, что каждая точка зрения развивается с течением времени, и что важно найти место для каждого, где они могут гармонично сосуществовать с другими.

Какие новые возможности открываются на уровне 'construct aware'?

На уровне 'construct aware' открывается возможность свидения и самопознания, когда человек начинает наблюдать за своими мыслями и поведением, понимая, как они формируются и развиваются в реальном времени.

Что такое уровень 'complete' и как он связан с самопознанием?

Уровень 'complete' связан с тем, что человек начинает осознавать, что его реакции и поведение могут быть проявлениям его истории и культуры, и что он может контролировать свои реакции, чтобы принимать более осознанные решения.

Какие проблемы могут возникнуть на уровне 'postmodern'?

На уровне 'postmodern' могут возникать проблемы с отсутствием фиксированных значений и норм, что может привести к релтивизму и тому, что каждый может делать то, что хочет, из-за отсутствия четкого понимания 'хорошого' и 'плохого'.

🤔 Уровни мышления: теория и юмор

В видео представлены различные уровни психологического развития, исследованные учеными, такими как Джан Пиаже и Абрахам Масло. Автор использует диаграмму, включающую четверти, уровни, линии, состояния и типы, чтобы объяснить поведение людей. Основное внимание уделяется уровню мышления, который развивается с опытом, и приводятся примеры, как люди взаимодействуют с окружающим миром на разных уровнях. Также упоминается спонсорское видео от Atlas VPN, предлагающее VPN-сервисы для доступа к контенту со всего мира.

05:01

🧠 Квадранты и различные уровни сознания

Автор обсуждает четыре квадранта: мозг, культура, общество и индивидуальное сознание. Он подчеркивает, что различные уровни мышления включают в себя способность думать на более высоких уровнях, но также использовать младшие уровни каждый день. Рассматриваются примеры поведения на уровнях 'выживания', 'соединения', 'контроля' и 'принадлежности', каждый из которых характеризуется своими особенностями и способами взаимодействия с окружающим миром.

10:01

🌐 Глобальное мышление и индивидуализм

В этом параграфе автор вводит концепцию глобального мышления, начинающегося с понимания, что каждый человек имеет свою точку зрения, основанную на его культуре и жизненном опыте. Обсуждается, как люди на разных уровнях развития могут оценивать поведение друг друга и как это влияет на формирование собственного понимания морали и этических норм. Также затрагивается тема индивидуализма и отсутствия абсолютных норм 'права' и 'неправа'.

15:02

👥 Взаимодействие на уровнях сознания

Автор продолжает анализировать, как люди взаимодействуют друг с другом на разных уровнях сознания, от первоначального уровня 'существования' до более высоких уровней, где они начинают понимать сложность отношений и влияние культуры на поведение. Рассматривается пример взаимодействия девушки и мужчины, демонстрирующий, как на разном уровне сознания они могут интерпретировать и реагировать на одни и те же события по-разному.

20:03

🔄 Развитие сознания и самопознание

В этом параграфе автор рассматривает процесс развития сознания от простого выживания до уровня 'гармонизации', где люди начинают понимать, что их уникальное видение мира было сформировано временем и опытом. Обсуждается влияние культуры, общества и личных выборов на развитие индивидуума, а также вводится понятие 'конструктивное сознание', когда человек осознает, что он сам строит свое сознание в реальном времени.

25:03

🔍 Внутрисознательный анализ и саморегуляция

Автор описывает процесс самоанализа и саморегуляции на различных уровнях развития, демонстрируя, как человек может осознавать и контролировать свои реакции на различные события. Упоминается важность понимания источников своих чувств и мыслей для того, чтобы стать более осознанным и эффективным в сложных ситуациях жизни, включая глобальную политику и межличностные отношения.

🛑 Саморазвитие и самопонимание

В заключительном параграфе автор делится своими мыслями о саморазвитии и самопонимании, предоставляя примеры того, как можно анализировать свои страхи и опасения, чтобы разрешить их. Он подчеркивает значимость процесса внутреннего размышления и рефлексии для того, чтобы двигаться вперед и достичь более высокого уровня самосознания и развития.

Keywords

💡уровни мышления

Уровни мышления в видео представлены как этапы психологического развития, исследованные многими учеными. Они связаны с способностью человека мыслить на более высоких уровнях, по мере получения опыта. В видео это объясняется с помощью диаграмм и примеров, демонстрирующих различные уровни, от базовых потребностей до глобального мышления.

💡сознательность

В контексте видео сознательность рассматривается как модель, включающая квадранты, уровни, линии, состояния и типы. Это понимание включает способность мыслить на различных уровнях и осознавать собственное мышление и поведение, что является основой для развития на более высоких уровнях.

💡кварталы

Кварталы в видео представляют собой различные способы восприятия реальности, включая ум, мозг, культуру и общество. Они демонстрируют, что развитие происходит в этих сферах одновременно, поскольку ум - это мозг, а культура - это множество умов, а общество - это действия этих умов.

💡мотивация

В видео мотивация связывается с различными уровнями мышления, от базовых потребностей на уровне выживания до стремления к гармонии и пониманию на более высоких уровнях. Мотивация определяет, какие действия человек будет предпринимать на каждом этапе своего развития.

💡морозное чувство

В видео морозное чувство используется в контексте уровня взаимосвязи, где люди начинают осознавать, что их действия могут влиять на чувства и мнения других. Это включает в себя примеры, когда люди реагируют на поведение других, учитывая их собственные потребности и желания.

💡контроль

Уровень контроля в видео описывает стадию, когда люди осознают сложную сеть социальных отношений и начинают использовать эту информацию для влияния и контроля над своими ситуациями, что часто проявляется в современном обществе в виде манипуляций и стремления к власти.

💡принадлежность

Уровень принадлежности связан с мотивацией вписаться в общество и следовать общим правилам. В видео это понимание демонстрируется через примеры, когда люди начинают понимать, что их поведение оценивается другими, и они стремятся соответствовать этим ожиданиям для социальной принадлежности.

💡объективное наблюдение

Объективное наблюдение представляет собой уровень, на котором люди начинают анализировать и сравнивать различные точки зрения, включая свои собственные и чужие. В видео это понятие используется для иллюстрации способности людей понимать, что их собственное понимание может быть ограничено, и что им нужно рассматривать другие культуры и системы ценностей.

💡субъективность

Субъективность в видео подчеркивает, что каждый человек имеет уникальное личное восприятие, которое нельзя объективно измерить. Это отражает уровень, на котором люди осознают, что их собственное видение мира может отличаться от того, что имеют другие, и что нет абсолютной истины.

💡гармонизация

Уровень гармонизации в видео описывает способность людей понимать и включать различные уровни мышления, чтобы достичь согласованности и баланса. Это включает в себя понимание, что различные системы и идеи могут существовать вместе, и что важно найти место для каждого в общей системе.

💡самоконтроль

Самоконтроль в контексте видео связан с уровнем самопознания, когда люди осознают, что их реакции и поведение могут быть результатом собственной истории и культуры. Они могут контролировать свои реакции, вместо того чтобы просто реагировать на стимулы без размышления, что дает им большую власть в общении и решении проблем.

Highlights

The video discusses levels of thinking and their theoretical significance.

It introduces a model of consciousness with quadrants, levels, lines, states, and types.

The video provides an interpretation of psychological development stages.

Jean Piaget and Abraham Maslow's theories are referenced as foundational.

Quadrants represent different perspectives on reality: mind, brain, culture, and society.

The development of thinking levels is gradual and influenced by various factors.

Levels of thinking are not hierarchical but rather a spectrum of cognitive abilities.

Higher levels of thinking do not necessarily equate to moral superiority.

The video humorously includes misspelled vegetables to engage the audience.

Sponsorship by Atlas VPN is mentioned, highlighting the importance of online privacy.

The video explains the concept of 'second person perspective' at level four.

Level five introduces the idea of objective observation and global thinking.

Level six acknowledges the role of the perceiver and the subjectivity of truth.

The video addresses the challenges of moral relativism at higher levels of thinking.

Second tier consciousness is introduced starting at level seven.

Level eight involves witnessing oneself change over time and being construct aware.

Level nine represents a state of constant observation and self-awareness.

The video concludes with advice on self-reflection to advance one's level of thinking.

Transcripts

so what the hell is this all about this

video is about levels of thinking it is

theoretical which is fascinating and it

also has colorful jokes I use this

diagram a lot in my videos because it

helps explain some of the wild things

that people say and do it's based on the

work of several researchers I'm trying

to make it easier to read for a wider

audience this is my interpretation of a

model of Consciousness that I studied it

includes quadrants levels lines States

and types today I'm talking about levels

I want to make a big long video explain

in each level in detail but for now I'm

just going to do this short version to

get it out of the way and get the ball

rolling but before we get started here

are some misspelled vegetables because

I'm told that it helps if I'm cute

here's a cactus so these levels are

stages of psychological development they

have been studied by numerous

researchers some of the most famous

models come from Jean P here's a

snapshot of his work and Abraham maslo

who had the hierarchy of needs everybody

is born down here and nearly everybody

gets up to at least this stage by

adulthood there are many factors that

determine how you will develop and when

including your surroundings your choices

your culture and the Brain you were born

with these are the quadrants they are

different ways of looking at reality in

this case this would be your mind your

brain your culture and your Society they

all happen at the same time because the

mind is the brain and culture is a lot

of minds and Society is what those Minds

do I should also say that people are

never really in a level you just slowly

develop the ability to think at higher

levels as you gain experience but we all

use the lower levels every day when you

have to use the bathroom for example

that's a level one process it's not a

complex style of thought it's just a

feeling or an urge so some people make

it up to higher stages and some people

never do most people on Earth spend most

of their time in these four stages and

this one is only very common in

modernized places and it's the first

stage where you can adopt a world-

centered level of understanding which

means understanding how people think the

way they do based on where they're from

before that level there are right and

wrong ways ways of thinking so you would

either be doing it right or you're not

and then they would say you're either

doing it right or you're not after that

it's more like well maybe I would think

that way if I was from there or maybe I

would be more like you if I lived your

life that's where Global thinking begins

speaking of global thinking this is my

first sponsored video it's brought to

you by Atlas VPN which allows you to

access all the stuff you like from all

over the globe it feels illegal but it's

not with Atlas VPN you can just go sorry

I'm totally in America right now it's

like a tiny little Embassy atas has the

best VPN deal on the market with a Black

Friday price cut it is $1.70 a month

with 6 months extra for free which also

feels illegal and is not check the video

description for the link Atlas VPN makes

you Anonymous which is a big deal for me

I do not need people knowing whose order

this is give me the regular price please

Atlas also stops ads in malware it

blocks malicious links ads in trackers

and it notifies you when someone tries

to steal your data you want to keep your

data right I do you want better deals on

shopping and subscriptions you want to

cover unlimited devices you want to hide

from the Illuminati get the Black Friday

price cut $1.70 a month 6 months extra

for free 30-day money back guarantee

protect your privacy other benefits

ridiculously low price click the link in

the video description below limited time

offer I hope it's also a limited time

that we stay in these lower levels of

thinking let's talk about what they are

and how they work and how to move on

before I get started I should say that

higher uh does not always mean better

some people watch my videos where I talk

about my mistakes and they say oh you

think you're at a high level you sound

like a jerk but higher doesn't mean

better person it means more aware so

here's the lower level of awareness

seeing things and then as you go higher

in the levels of awareness it becomes

much more complex you're seeing people

seeing people seeing almost into

infinity and so when I make mistakes in

here I usually know exactly why they're

happening I usually can say things like

I choose women who probably will not

stick around why because I don't think I

can support them anyway well why does

that matter well usually most of them

want a higher level of support that I

can provide and why does that matter

well it doesn't feel good when they

leave because I can't support them okay

well why do those feelings matter can

you change it some other way can you get

a better job or something well I tried

to do that I'm doing the best that I can

is there some way that you can change

the way you try to get money from the

world well I've already done everything

I can here and this kind of gets fuzzy

so why am I spending time with the wrong

woman comes back to this experience that

I've had over and over and over again

and I haven't been able to fix it's the

ability to see through what's going on

your mind and also to see through

similar levels of complexity in what's

going on in the world around you so it's

not about being good it's about getting

it moving up in the levels does not

always make you more effective in fact

this level is famous for making people

into hippies this is the point in

development where you begin to

understand that everyone has their own

way of seeing things and so who's to say

what we should and should not do this is

an illustration of an interaction from

each level this girl is getting

validation from a guy that she's not

interested in so she knows how to get

the validation and then she stands back

and she can plan how to give less to get

even more and then she looks at that and

asks well is that the right thing to do

not really but am I going to do it

anyway in this circumstance because I

think it would be better overall so

that's in order wanting something

knowing how to get it from someone

knowing how to control the interaction

knowing whether that's right or wrong

according to the rules that you live by

and then becoming the author of your own

sense of right and wrong and then when

you take another step back to this

hippie level it's like well who is

anyone to judge my choices my choices

are right for me and so there isn't

really such a thing as right and wrong

it's just what works for me that's why

they call that level the individualist

different people go through the levels

differently and when I went through this

one it really stressed me out I felt

like like I couldn't get my feet on the

ground I saw so many different ways of

seeing the world so many different

philosophies so many different life

choices and I didn't know how to pick

one and if I can't pick one then I can't

get anywhere so I would say I don't know

what to do and people would say just

pick something and I would say how do I

know what to pick and they would go pick

something you like and I would go how do

I know what I like so I really like to

plan things out I like certainty but at

this level you you realize that you're

never going to know what happens until

you try it so it goes what I see what

you see what works for for me what works

for us and then hey look those people

have a different thing that works for

them that's level five when you can say

okay I'm like this cuz I'm from here and

you're like that cuz you're from there

and then at level six it's like well

where I'm from is really just myself

everybody is just from their self and so

how can one self have an idea that's

better than any other self whereas at an

earlier level you might be able to say

something like well my dad was an

accountant and so I'm an accountant

that's just what we do and you don't

have have to deal with any of this

uncertainty so higher is more complex

but complex is not always good the way I

explain it is that you can have a really

good shoe or a really bad car and I

think what I have is a sinking cruise

ship so if hire is not always better

then why should we grow well because

higher is usually better if everyone was

at these lower levels we would not be

able to have grocery stores and

electricity we have a complex world and

it requires complex thinking and some

problems cannot be solved at the level

they came from everybody watching this

is going to have a different fingerprint

of development that means that your

different lines or capacities or the

ways that you use your intelligence are

all going to be developed to different

levels it's possible to be very lopsided

for example you could have your

cognitive line all the way up at 9 but

your moral line all the way down at 3

you could also be higher up than another

person overall but they're still way

better than you at a particular thing

for example this could be somebody who

really understands history and politics

to a high degree but has low empathy and

this would be someone who kind of gets

it but is great with people so as I go

through them one by one try to remember

where you went through them and what

that felt like and where you think you

are now okay level one I call this

survive because it's just basic moment

to moment what do I need do I need food

do I need sleep it's just my own

feelings and there's no such thing as

someone else's mind if we were living in

this level we would be in small survival

bands and we would not be thinking much

about each other's thoughts we would be

doing what we must in order to survive

level two I called connect because now

you can think about what is in someone

else's mind what does this person want

or need primitive people at this level

will sometimes do rain dances or throw

virgins in a volcano I'm not sure if

that's real but it's the kind of thing

you'd expect to see because at level two

you're realizing okay I have a mind and

I need things and other people have

minds and they need things so maybe it's

not raining because we haven't pleased

someone in the sky maybe the volcano is

angry because it wants something and

what do I want virgins so level two is

all about what I do affects what other

people think about me and what they do

for me basically like this if we were

living at level two we would be in small

tribal groups and we would be focused on

Safety and Security and maintaining

functional habits and dependable

practices just dayto Day level three I

called control this level is still very

popular in modern society so at level

one I have a mind with feelings and

needs and at level two I know that other

people have Minds with feelings and

needs and sometimes maybe I think a

volcano does too and at level three now

I know that other people are aware that

other people are aware that they have

feelings and needs so I know that these

people have a relationship to each other

the same way that I have a relationship

to this and to this and to this and to

this now I know he has a relationship to

her so instead of just direct

connections this creates social

situations here is a woman seeing man

bad on her phone and then she sees the

man in her life and goes oh wait a

minute if man bad then maybe that man

bad and then at level three you would

step back and say well what do I do

about this situation why is why is he

being bad and what can I do about this

relationship if we were living at this

level we would be living in something

like the Roman Empire Mythic feudal and

exploitative Empire you see this level a

lot in things like the Mafia and in

sports teams firemen police military so

even though these levels two and three

involve thinking about thinking it's

mostly just for the purpose of getting

what you want and having power over

others level four I called belong

because the primary drive is to fit in

and that drive is motivated by what they

call second person perspective so again

at level one you have your own feelings

urges and needs at level two you see

those of others and you can react to

them but it's still all about what those

feelings mean to you and at level three

you understand that you're in a complex

Social Web of relationships and you can

react to those relationships and exert

control over your situation and at level

four that's when you realize everyone is

in their own situation that's where we

get the classic folk wisdom of don't

judge somebody until you've walked a

mile in his shoes you are in this

situation over here but imagine if you

were him in this situation over here

maybe would have done what he did too

that doesn't come online until you get

the second person perspective at level

four when level four was brand new it

was basically medieval Empires it says

Mythic Empires here nation states

basically large groups of people that

lived by a set of rules that they shared

as opposed to the do what you want

mentality of level three level four

focuses on good versus evil the entry to

that level is called the Diplomat

because of the way that they focus on

acceptable behavior and social Norms

that's their way of getting over the

problems from the previous stage you can

tell when second person perspective is

coming online in children cuz they start

looking in the mirror more they start to

realize oh I have other people looking

at me the way that I look at other

people and I have feelings about them

they're looking at me and having

feelings about me so I better be up to

their expectations level four is the

beginning of what we traditionally refer

to as morality here again is the woman

seeing man bad on her phone and then she

feels like well maybe this man is bad

because my phone said so she's

projecting that onto him having a a

negative experience and then deciding

what to do about it I'm going to break

up with this guy he must be bad because

I felt like it was true when I saw it on

my phone and then out here she takes a

step back and looks at herself as if she

is a second person which is why they

call it second person perspective and

thinks is that the right thing to do

this is the first point where it becomes

obvious that Consciousness is important

because a lot of people see things on

their phones or on TV and it gives them

a feeling and then they see that feeling

coming from others and then they do

something about that relationship so

they might begin treating somebody

poorly because they saw something on

their phone that made them feel like

well if that's happening here it must be

happening here too and it's not until

you slow down enough to get to level

four that you can take a step back and

ask yourself is this a valuable process

the way that level four typically

functions is through Conformity and

agreement I believe this is the wrong

way to behave

I believe this is the wrong way to

behave agreeing on what's right and

wrong and creating a set of rules and

following them can solve some of these

earlier problems but also there are an

infinite number of ways to decide what

is right and wrong you can have this set

of rules over here or this set of rules

over here and that's where level five

comes in level five introduces objective

observation as a value basically okay

you guys think a BC is right and you

guys think XYZ is right well let's

figure out which one is better and in

order to do that you have to take

another step back into a third person

perspective so again the first three

levels are all about me and then level

four is if I was another person in my

culture how would I view my behavior and

then level five is another step back if

I was an alien or a stranger how would I

view my culture this also enables you to

view other cultures and sets of social

norms that's why it's Global it's the

first time that you can go oh I get why

they're like that because they're from

somewhere else level five has only

really been around for a few hundred

years and it is basically where we get

science and the assembly line and other

forms of modern

conveniences level six is where things

get really fun you might remember how it

went for me level five is into objective

observation but level six recognizes the

role of the perceiver a different

perceiver is going to equal a different

perception that brings in the fourth

person perspective so down at one you

have me and my needs the way I relate to

others and the way I get my way in my

social situation and then you take a

step back what does my behavior look to

others around me and what rules do we

make about that and then another step

back what would our set of rules look

like to a different group of people and

then level six you step back again and

well the way that you are looking is

going to determine what it looks like so

when when you look here you'll see one

thing and when you look here you'll see

another thing and when you look here

you'll see a third thing because of who

you are and where you came from so there

isn't really any way to objectively

observe not being able to objectively

observe can feel weird level six is very

new there were a few philosophers

talking at that level in the 1800s but

it didn't really show up in mainstream

Society until 1960s America so because

the way that you're looking determines

what you're going to see that means

there are multiple perspectives that

that are valid because we all have a

unique personal subjective reality

that's not observable to others

basically how do I know that the red

that I see is the same as the red that

you see maybe my red is your green from

the fourth person perspective there's no

way to know level six is a really good

example of why higher development is not

always necessarily better it is a very

high degree of moral development

recognizing the validity of everyone's

perspective but let's say for example

that there's a problem going on down

here let's say that this guy did

something that is considered morally

wrong in this culture but wait a minute

he says that's how we do it where I'm

from so when level six goes crazy they

start saying things like we can't make

this guy follow these rules just because

he's here he has these rules where he's

from and and who are you to judge which

set of rules is better we should

recognize everybody's unique perspective

and that can and often does give people

the idea I guess I can just do whatever

I want because who are you to judge

that's why we have problems like this

and yeah some of these people are

unfortunate and that's sad but some of

them are just doing whatever they want

and we now have laws that don't

distinguish between them because who are

you to judge so at this point there is

this white break in the chart and that's

because we are moving up to second tier

Consciousness and what that means is

that level seven is the first level that

and understand and include all the

previous ones at level six they still

insist that they're correct and no one

else is for example at level four you

might have a Christian church and a

Muslim Mosque next door arguing over who

has the true Faith but at level six we

can all get along we just need more

understanding when that's not what

either of those groups wants so even if

level six says that they're about

equality they're saying we all need to

be equal even if we don't want to and

it's not until Level seven that we

understand how to actually give each

previous level what it wants to have so

that they can live in harmony at level 7

this fourth person perspective gets

expanded through time which creates

awareness of the self as a history of

your own experience at level six

everyone has their own View and so who's

to say who's right and who's wrong but

at level seven you take yet another step

back and you realize that that unique

view didn't come from nowhere it

developed over time and everybody else

is developing over time so at level six

because we are all the same everybody

belongs wherever but at level seven

since we know we all change over time

people belong where they fit the best so

for example does this Behavior fit here

if not then it has to go where it

belongs and if it does then we can all

learn something new from it that's why I

called it harmonize because it's no

longer about radical in inclusiveness

it's about recognizing interrelated

systems and how they are either

synergistic or clashing radical

relativism and radical inclusiveness

they sound nice but they do create a lot

of clashing people who are at level s

tend to naturally recognize development

without studying this chart or any of

the stuff it came from and it's pretty

fun to see I asked one of my life

coaching clients a question and he said

well a little while ago I would have

answered it like this and before then I

would have answered it like that and

maybe a few years ago I would have

answered it like this but now and so he

told me all about his development

through the levels as his answer to the

question as far as I know there is not

yet any large collection of people at

level s you can find a lot of these

people in San Francisco and you can find

a lot of these people in New York and

you can find a lot of these people in

Alabama and so on so let me know if you

think that you're up at this level I'm

trying to build a Time Army so we can

all get together and work on all this

from up here and I'm not really sure if

these numbers are accurate I get more

confident the lower it goes but I know I

enjoy meeting them because their ability

to naturally balance and synergize

things and put everything where it

belongs means that uh they're going to

be instrumental in solving a lot of the

problems caused by the previous levels

the levels get more difficult to explain

the higher they go you may have noticed

there's a lot of words here and level

eight is pretty rare I don't meet a lot

of people who are stably at it and even

when I do don't think they spend a lot

of their time there so level eight

appears when you take another step back

from this and we are now witnessing

ourselves change over time in the moment

as you behave as you think and feel new

parts of you emerge from The Ether

that's what it means to be construct

aware it means that you're watching your

own mind construct itself as you go so

at level eight you can see all these

different parts of yourself kind of

coming out to play for for example you

could look at an image of a dut or a dut

sitting on a plate and you can go hm I'm

feeling many things right now I'm

feeling hunger for the doughnut cuz it's

good but I'm also feeling a sense of

guilt from one time that I ate a whole

box of donuts that were not meant for me

and then somebody gave me social

punishment and shame for that and I also

got a stomach ache cuz I ate too many

I'm recalling that memory as I look at

this and it's influencing what I want to

do so now that I'm aware of all that

going on in me do I want to listen to it

or not do I want to be the kind of

person who just has a donut anyway cuz

I'm an adult and I can do what I want

and it might sound silly when you're

talking about Donuts but imagine that

this is something like global politics

or even an interpersonal relationship

like yeah I saw this on my phone and it

gave me a feeling and I'm aware of where

that feeling is in myself and I'm aware

that I'm projecting it onto this person

and I'm aware of my impulse for what I

should do about it and I'm aware of what

my culture says I should to do about it

and then all of that is wrapped up in

objective observation and the story of

who I am and how I got here over time

and how I'm viewing the event because of

my personal history do you see how that

gives you a lot more power to change

your behavior in situations like this

imagine if more people could see

something and then see their own

reaction to it instead of just reacting

and then know where that reaction comes

from in terms of their history and their

culture think how much more power that

would give us not to just react in the

moment that's why you should be thinking

about thinking anyway level 9 is very

hard to describe I do think that I spend

some time up at this level and the way

that it feels to me is like all I'm

doing ever is watching and wishing and

that's all I've ever been doing at these

first three levels you are the main

character and at level four you

understand everyone is their own main

character and then you understand that

everyone's watching a different show

because everyone is a different show and

that show is constantly evolving and

changing over time and at level eight

you're just watching the show happen

you're not even identified with being

the show anymore you're just watching

yourself be so when my mind is up here

it's like okay I'm I'm seeing myself

seeing my history and where I came from

and what I'm like and what I do which is

made of all this stuff all the memories

and habits from the lower levels I'm I'm

watching myself observing my emergence

over time interacting with the present

moment I know where I'm from and what

that has made me like and I know what's

happening now and I'm watching them come

together and I'm I'm looking at myself

looking at that and so what how you do

the looking is what's important at this

level it's like what are you looking at

I I think you need to be looking at at

this part right now I think you need to

be looking at this function in your life

maybe you're you're looking from here

when you should be looking from here so

it's like what I'm watching is watching

itself and again here you would be

watching your personal needs and here

you would be watching the reactions of

others and here you would be watching

your situation that you're in and here

you would be watching what others expect

from you and here you would be watching

observable reality and here you'd be

watching where you're from to know how

you interpret things and here you'd be

watching what are all your habits and

pieces of you put together and how are

they interpreting your reality and here

you'd be watching those habits and

pieces coming together in the moment and

sometimes being surprised by what they

do and then here I feel a responsibility

for knowing where to watch those things

if that makes any sense sense so yeah

that's this chart and how it works the

levels part of it anyway the rest of it

I'll get into another time and if you

want to move up the levels the best way

to do that is just sit with your

thoughts and think about them and figure

out where they come from here's another

example of what that looks like so

sometimes I worry that my little

scribbly drawings are kind of

embarrassing to show to 200,000 people

so why am I feeling the embarrassment

well I guess I'm worried that it's going

to have some kind of a negative impact

on me what kind of negative impact would

it have well I guess maybe people would

not like my Channel or might say some

bad things about me because I don't have

more

sophisticated graphic processes well why

would it be so bad if that happened well

then I might lose out on opportunities

that I could otherwise have if I had

better looking Graphics well how do you

know you would lose out on those

opportunities hm that's a good question

because so far I've been doing pretty

good with my scribbly whatever this is

so then if you don't have any evidence

that you're going to lose out on

opportunities because you're doing this

then what's wrong with it okay I guess

problem solved I can do this for now and

that's why I called this level

complete all right I hope you enjoyed

this presentation on levels I will do

another one that's going to be really

excruciatingly long at some point but

I'll make it fun and um uh video's done

you can close you can go away if you

want I'm just going to ramble for a

minute I'm going to do a longer thing on

levels somewhere down the road very soon

I'm going to do self maximize it's going

to be about how to make yourself the

best possible partner so people like you

and then want to keep you I'm going to

be talking about itemized delusion I'm

going to break people up into groups and

talk about the general delusions that

they have um about themselves and the

dating Market I'm going to talk about

the not people Zone oh I'm going to be

um arguing with mac and Murphy soon
