Addressing The Spiritual Superiority Complex with Joel Rafidi & Yerasimos Stilianessis

On the landscape of awakening, we've noticed a polarity between the black-pilled & the blissed out new agers.. I'm personally not a fan of generalizing or compartmentalizations, but for the sake of simplicity, that's what's been observed, and to which contain varying degrees of course, and it's not all that static since people have plenty of potential to change & evolve. The point I (Derek) was also trhing to get across regrding the spiritual new age notions of 5D, is also to note that moree times than not, 4D isn't mentioned, as if it's conveniently bypassed, which I also see as people's personal bypassing of certain inner work neccessary to even get close to innerstanding that level of conscious awareness.. I'm not saying that assuming I got it all figured out at all, it's a simple stark observation of things that aren't serving people as well as they think.

If you didn't understand the references to the (FUNL) Freedom Under Natural Law conference, all four of us participated in the event over a year ago, which Leslie not only gave a powerful presentation, but had a significant hand in organizing & hosting it all.

Here's the text I was inspired by Yerasimos that prompted this conversation:

In my 20 years involved in personal development, I've often observed that some (not all of course) individuals who identify as "spiritual" tend to believe they are more evolved than they actually are. This belief can stem from an over-reliance on spiritual principles as a way to avoid or bypass deeper psychological work.
From my perspective, these individuals often use spiritual concepts to mask a dysregulated nervous system and a limited understanding of both intrapersonal and interpersonal psychology, leading to a disconnect between their perceived and actual level of growth. It's important to recognize that true personal development requires integrating spiritual insights with a solid foundation in psychological and emotional well-being.
I encourage you to reflect on your own journey…Are you truly integrating your spiritual beliefs with deep inner work, or are there areas where you might be bypassing essential elements for your continued growth?
