Summary Points on Growing Up Levels
Ken Wilber describes this development as a Spiral, Ladder, and Nest. Below is a summary, which aligns with Mahamati Prannath's Tartam Vani, the Eight Oceanic Qualitites of the Supreme Being and The Chakras in the human body - the subtle energy centers:
- Level 1 — Infrared / Survival
Motivation: food, safety, rest, body
Challenge: desire, fear, addiction
Purpose: balance—"enough is sufficient."
Practice: food becomes conscious, not desire. - Level 2 — Magenta / Tribal Belonging
Motivation: family, group, identity
Challenge: superstition, tribal superiority
Spiritual insight: "I am not alone; I am connected." - Level 3 — Red / Power and Control
Motivation: dominance, ego, desire
Challenge: anger, violence, insecurity
Lesson: "I cannot control all—I must control myself." - Level 4 — Amber / Order, Religion, Rules
Positive: discipline, morality, tradition
Shadow: rigidity, religious superiority
God is still perceived externally. - Level 5 — Orange / Logic and Science
Traits: reasoning, education, progress
Shadow: individualism, materialism
Question: "Why should I believe? Where is the evidence?" - Level 6 — Green / Compassion and Equality
Traits: sensitivity, inclusiveness
Shadow: over-sensitivity, fear of judgment
Love becomes social, but experience is still partial. - Level 7 — Teal / Integral Consciousness
Insight: all levels are necessary; none is wrong or superior
Growth is about letting go of ego, not winning
Shift: "I" → "We" → "All is me" - Level 8 — Turquoise / Universal Consciousness
Realization: I am nature, I am the cosmos, love, sound, emptiness—all is me
Experience transcends verbal understanding.
Distinctions of pleasure and renunciation dissolve; doer and deed, seeker and sought, merge
Taratam Vani describes:
Nit let prem sukh ars me, jano aaj liya naya bhog.
Yon hak det jo ham ko, nit naye prem sanjog.।।13।।
Love is always new—this is the realm of Nondual consciousness
