🧵 I try not to talk too much about crypto here, because it's a contentious topic inside the intersecting venn diagram of communities I take part in, but it's a pretty dang important topic.

To my crypto-maxi mutuals: Look I get that this is literally as big a deal as web 1.0 & web 2.0 were, in terms of the future impact on technology, society, consciousness, etc...

But what many of you don't seem to appreciate is that the foundation of our ecology is rotting out from under us in real-time and DLTs aren't going to save us. Neither will Elon, Technolojesus, conscious capitalists, or anyone else. We have to be our own saviors.

Finders who can’t help seekers become finders, are missing the bigger bigger picture.

This is the top of the mountain curse. From way up there it seems like everyone should get this. This is a conflation of universal and the personal, and all it’s serving is the “enlightened ego.” Enjoy the fall, my friends...

And sadly, most people suffering from this curse aren’t even at the top of the mountain, they just think they are...

If we ONLY have a way of describing what the offenders of racial injustice look like, how can we possible hope to align ourselves with the forces of liberation?

Positive identities are necessary for positive change. They serve as transitional self-structures that we can co-inhabit.

The success of Meta-Organizations will be determined almost exclusively by their choice of governance practices. 1️⃣

Shared governance is what connects disparate organizations, that may have different purposes themselves, but want to connect in a meta-purpose together. 2️⃣

I expect simple consensus-based meta-orgs to fail horribly at growing and connecting nodal organizations in shared purpose. The "blob", as Michel Bauwens puts it, doesn't move quickly or integrate relevant data easily at scale. 3️⃣

The #1 most common question I receive as a meditation teacher is: “How do I know I’m on the right track?” 1️⃣

When I first was starting out as a meditation teacher I answered this question by helping people recognize and move through the traditional state-stages of the early Buddhist meditative path (ex. The 16 stages of the progress of insight, the 4 paths, the 8 jhanas, etc.) 2️⃣

I quickly realized this was a sub-optimal way of teaching because: 1) Not everyone can easily move through the traditional state-stages and have success with this approach. 3️⃣

1: I am utterly convinced that one of the most challenging complex emotions that we have got to come to grips with as contemporary practitioners (inside & out) is cynicism.

2/ For those of us who are self-identified skeptics (🖐🏼) it’s the thinnest and finest line toward being cynical. I confused & conflated the two for years.

3/ Skepticism is a state of mind in which we tend to question assumptions, pre-established authorities, and conventions.
