Any other references to what you're referring other than a very long video? I don't know this Actualized.org group at all or the person talking, and clicking on

Any other references to what you're referring other than a very long video? I don't know this Actualized.org group at all or the person talking, and clicking on the forum lead to even more confusion.

Yes, sorry, that was a pretty lazy post :) The most exciting thing about Stage Yellow is that it's the first stage of Tier 2, which means beings at this stage can see that there are levels before it. More details[1] What is the essence of the Yellow value system? Core Values: Systemic, integral, emergent Paradigm: Synergy “ I am learning.” World View: The world is a complex, self-organizing, natural system that requires integral solutions. Life Motto: “I manifest myself, but not at the cost of others.” Life Theme: Effective action to support the whole. Life Philosophy: I am searching for freedom and embrace (integral) space and complexity. What is the origin of the Yellow value system? Period: 50 years ago Geographical Location: The Western World Founders: Systems thinking and holists such as, for example, Einstein, Bohm, Wilber and Graves. In reaction to: At a given point, the Green value system may cause frustration because complex problems that humanity is confronted with cannot solely be solved by consensus and a people-focused way of thinking and living. Moreover, the Green group process takes a lot of time and energy, which can be used in more useful ways. The need to take oneself and the world to the next level causes people to break out of the group and to offer their unique contribution to the world in a complete independent and free way. This is done by combining different existing ideas, theories and models and distilling new connections from them. The world is now seen as an integral whole, in which the value of all value systems is acknowledged. However, some values and manifestations are more suitable and appropriate than others. There’s a freedom from fear, from nature, from the boss, and from others, as one simply does what one needs to do. There’s a new consciousness emerging, which sees life just as life, and that life is an integral part of a big and vast universe in which humans just play a small role. How do you recognize the presence of Yellow? Yellow is recognized by the large amount of ideas, connections and complexity that it introduces. Yellow’s starting point is an overarching vision about a system (on an individual, group, organizational, national, planetary and/or cosmic level) and then determines what the system needs to grow and blossom. In order to do so, Yellow will pass by personal and purely human-orientated interests. Yellow is also characterized by an enormous drive and focus (Yellow knows exactly in which direction it wants to move). Yellow has the ability to look far into the future and, at the same time, keep things close at home and integrate the past. Yellow often has visionary and revolutionary ideas about the future. How do you recognize the absence of Yellow? There is a lack of focus from a broader perspective. There is no overview or vision about the future. The skill to look at a problem from different angles is lacking. People are “afraid” of chaos and turbulence. Energy does not “flow” and structures and processes exist primarily to keep things as they are. There is not a lot of vision and the issues of the day take up all the energy. What are the general characteristics of the Yellow value system? * Overarching view of living systems * View life as a chaotic organism in which change is a constant and in which insecurity is an acceptable way of living * Integrative structures and evolutionary streams * The need to develop natural living environments that support human evolution in a step-by-step and phased way * Integration of head, heart and gut feeling * Focused on both process and content * Moves freely in different value systems * Change is a constant: it’s emergent and about long-term thinking * “Acupunctural interventions”; small actions with a big impact * Personal freedom without harming others or nature * Thinks and acts from an inner-directed core Sayings * We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them * Imagination is more important than knowledge * There are no facts, only interpretations * Wisdom is knowing what you do not know * Good wine needs no bush * Do right and fear no one * Turn your hand to anything * The darkest hour is before the dawn * If someone strikes gold, everyone will know [1] http://spiraldynamicsintegral.nl/en/yellow/ http://spiraldynamicsintegral.nl/en/yellow/
