Top 10 signs of Integral Junkies
Ok, I'm bored here at work, so to lighten things up.....
Top ten signs of an integral junkie:
10. Still thinking about how your scalp would look shaved.
9. Your last two postmodern friends left you yesterday shouting that they would not take being called "lower lefties" anymore
8. Watching traffic lights switch from green to red makes instills you with a deep sense of meaning.(ah yes... the MGM is real)
7. People find you increasingly scary since when given directions you always ask "will those work in my worldspace as well?"
6. Your amber relatives are planning to rescue you from this evil sect led by a bald incarnation of Satan
5. Any first-tier person correctly calling you on your shit will be met by a fake smile and an ice cold "you're simply not on my level of consciousness"
4. Your most sacred belongings are your I-I pen, I-I magnet and Integral Spirituality. In no particular order since you cannot bear ranking absolute truths holarchically.
3. Eagerly waiting for an I-I dating service so you can get yourself a hot piece of integral ass
2. Desperately needing nr 3 seeing as how you insist on always wearing something turquoise nowadays
1. Never mind about the dating service, you are already seeing someone from the forum!

Re: Top 10 signs of Integral Junkies
And the number zero most visible sign you are an integral junkie?
0. Composing integral junkie top ten lists while at work.

Re: Top 10 signs of Integral Junkies
Don't we need a negative top 10, just for the sake of balance?

Re: Top 10 signs of Integral Junkies
Looks like I'm just as guilty of being spiral junky monkey.
Unexpected side-effect of having a shaved head and a girlfriend with same: when you run your hands over your own head, it reminds you of her.
Just sayin'.

Re: Top 10 signs of Integral Junkies
I admit it. I've tried to imagine what I would look like bald.
It took me a few days to recover from the image...
May the boundless knowledge that time presents and space allows illuminate the native perspectives of your original face.

Re: Top 10 signs of Integral Junkies
I admit it, I haven't ever imagined what I'd look like bald.
Liz suits it, Sinead O'Connor looked awesome. I don't have the bone structure of either!
I may be last person left standing with hair in this forum.......that won't change my mind either!

I'll be standing there with you then, girlfriend. I feel like my head is just too small to shave it bald, and that I would end up looking somewhat like the image below... Hair just kind of helps to balance things out a bit, you know?
I'm even starting to think about wigs ...

Re: Top 10 signs of Integral Junkies
You have your reasons for keeping your hair,Tiki. And I have mine:
If I were bald my ears and nose would look even larger. They already dwarf my eyes and, out of simple perversity and plain cussednesss, are growing faster than ever. Maybe I should cultivate wisdom at this point in my life.
I no longer seek justice, only mercy.

And now back to our regularly scheduled thread.
Just enough enlightenment for this time around, please.

Re: Top 10 signs of Integral Junkies
I normally wear a flattop, but I mentioned to my wife one day that I was wondering what I would look like if I shaved my head.....She dared me to do it.
Shortly thereafter, I emerged with very little hair (I cut it down to 1/8").
For me, I don't really care what I look like. It's easier to keep....basically just a get up and go type deal. Every few weeks, I shave it down again. LOL.

Re: Top 10 signs of Integral Junkies
Nobody, but NOBODY cuts my hair. Ever again!! (past life trauma). At least that's my excuse.
As for Integral junkiedom, I owe what's left of my sanity to this early warning post by Yotam Schachter. It confirmed my ominous forebodings of what will become of those who get sucked into the Wilberian map-making maelstrom.
yschachter - August 7, 2024:
I fucking hate that I can't go through any kind of conversation with any depth at all without always already breaking it down into quadrants, levels, lines, states, and types. I hate that I can't read a book without wondering what meme it's written from and addressed to. I hate that I can't sit on my yoga mat for ten minutes without wondering whether this was a subtle, causal, or nondual experience. I hate that as soon as I get anywhere interesting in my contemplative expeditions, I hear Ken Wilber's fucking voice in my head telling me what I'm experiencing and pulling me out of it. I hate that as soon as I feel anything non-dual, I think the word non-dual, or I AMness, or whatever the fuck, and start thinking about it instead of being it and I lose fucking touch. AND I FUCKING HATE that when I tell myself to stop thinking about all of this crap and just be in the moment, the voice that thinks in all of that crap steps forward and congratulates me and tells me how good it is, according to the framework, that I'm disregarding the framework.
** Link**
Btw. where is Yotam? He hasn't written anything lately. I want more Yotam. Gimme my yschachter fix. Please Ken, let his nimble fingers do that AQAL posty thing again! I miss him so, bwaahoohaa. O Yotam, Yotam, thou art sorely missed.

Re: Top 10 signs of Integral Junkies
The last 10 posts in this thread, including one of mine, have had zip to do with the "Top Ten Signs of Integral Junkies." Who started this spamming!
I'm not serious, but more evidence of integral junkiedom would actually be on thread. But the way we have wandered astray may be the 11th sign of the malady. What are we avoiding, people?
MarkD
Or would that be off-topic too?
Just enough enlightenment for this time around, please.
