“When a child grows up, how much of who they become was always in them, and how much did the world around them write?”
Trust ranks through the site stewards' curated lens.
I remember this result but I don’t remember where this comes from either. In my head this is a developmental insight, eg: orange aims for success (in order to get happiness) green aims for happiness (in order to get meaning) teal aims for meaning (in order to get… "more contact... Where and under what historical conditions did new developmental stages first emerge?
Where and under what historical conditions did new developmental stages first emerge? And, more speculatively, where might development be heading once what is currently a late stage becomes widespread — and what, if anything, can philosophical and spiritual traditions tell us... As an integral enthusiast, I think this is such a broad overview of integral theory that’s its actually not that helpful; furthermore GPT managed to downsample to green by emphasizing diversity and inclusivity, rather than "inclusion" as part of transcend and include, or "no one... Sci fi futures, developmental futures
A future I love includes some of these; what do you guys see? Everyone is wealthy AF. Used to be only the uber-wealthy had private drivers, now upper-middle income city dwellers all have a private driver on demand (uber/lyft).... - lightseeker...

yeah i appreciate the invitation; I’m not entirely sure-sometimes I use the heuristic that if i’m seeing the world through the developmental lens at all I’m probably looking through the teal lens, but that seems too simplistic: sometimes I’m using the developmental lens to... This is also almost universally the opinion of developmental theorists. There’s disagreement about how to relate it all, but the standard wilberian take is that there are a few lines of intelligence that develop relatively independently.... - laymanpascal...
From a developmental perspective onr of the most interesting questions is how early and how safely can children be taught to not believe content. Without losing sincere engagement, we also need to acknowledge that images, videos,.voices, identities of people sending messages,... I think similarly about states - philosophers notice this all along that the possibility for hedonistic satisfaction of all needs could halt growth; at the same time high lifing standards provide the foundation for growth.... - Philip...

GPT5's quick take (prompt: how might 'aspiration' appear at different levels in a developmental maturity model, particularly regarding active/passive dynamics)?... Fra I'm a bit of an integral apologist so I'm focusing on the integral bits of your post. but first thanks for the beautiful things you've said about having compassion for ourselves, and the challenge of doing deep emotional work....
