Yeah, i think it's something like this. Similar to how you cannot go into another person consciousness (I can't see what my friend in Europe is looking at right now) that has a strong firewall that doesn't get fucked with

I'd be curious to know how many people are capable of actually changing their personality structure, the personality after all is nothing solid or material, it's conceptual

Do you guys sometimes feel like these personality tests and such kinda put you in a box? Like if you believe you are INTP or whatever (someone introvorted) that you can't excel in something like social skills?

Thank you for the support <3 San Marcos! So cool, I went to UT Austin so we would visit there sometimes, beautiful nature

Ah, you're in Pipe Creek? Yes, Ive done about 6 weeks in person working with Ralston, i've also interviewed him on my channel. He's one of my top teachers in life, him and Sahajananda are my 2 main teachers.

I also want to say LordFall has great points too, just because our inherint worth isn't tied to things like success with women, money, etc, those are still important aspects of life tied to your self esteem and stability and ability to kick ass and create things in life and are essential. Also, they 100% don't fall on your lap, you as a man have to take massive action to become skilled in those domains. It's cool to see people on the forum take off the masks and hiding behind the screens and actually have a "face to face" discussion. Props.

It's crazy how he just totally mastered the world of material pursuits and money then just gave it all away before pursuing consciousness, inspiring.

Definitely

Its an interesting discussion. I have to side more with Yeti Neti, it's essential to have a base of contentment and wholeness and most value metrics are relative. A Stage Green women will find value in things that a Stage Orange woman cannot even see. You want to align with where you thrive and your value is seen, not neccesarily create it based on the values of a certain culture. So many people (men) value money and status because that is what their culture and the women in it value, it's not neccesarily their authentic values. So they dedicate decades of time and energy to essentially fit in. Value is not defined by the abundance you bring others, because that hinges your value on others way of perceiving value. Not to say it's not badass to master something in life and crush it if you can, simply for the love of the sport, but happiness should never hinge on extrenalities.

links dont work

i always wondering about this, as i've read the book too, it's a beautiful book, but i found this a strange ending because it creates God as a dual being, something outside of him, makes me question if it was more mind because God is not a person or being you can perceive like that.

Damn, thank you for posting... I hadn't see this. 3 hour master class let's get it. I feel like Brendan is holding the torch for Ralston's work. I

MILFs too

Great for socializing and having some routine/stability, also having a solid degree out of college helped me land a job which let me basically retire at 28. I think people underestimate the importance of university, it's seems to be a trendy thing now to say it's unneccesary, but the reality of the situation is it is still important and good for you. Also, you are surronded by hot chicks

It's childish, ultimately it's an immature way of relating to God. Which is why it is Stage Purple Age 0-5 for most humans, it's that level of development. If this is your cup of tea, go follow Aubrey Marcus and his Jesus-Alien guests.

Why do Siddhis impress us? Because they go above and beyond normal reality. But normal reality is the magic. Imagine that there used to be absolutely nothing, then this reality appeared from that, how is that not enough? Now, we get greedy and want things that defy that, like levitation, mind reading, future telling, etc.

i'd be cautious around this Siddhis stuff too, seems like something Aubrey Marcus would be interested in. Again, like we said previously, it's just this desire for things to go above and beyond the magic that they already are. Like wanting to see a Yogi float rather than just being amazed he is breathing

bingo, it's like people want something extra on the cake which is already a pure miracle, pure magic, and much wiser than our stupid manifestation goals. Not to say people shouldn't go after mastery and creating what they want in life, but don't be deluded about it

This reminds me of all that ridiculous "manifestation" stuff. People are so biased there and think that just sitting around "vibrating with money" is going to make it appear. It's just ego desires with a spritual cloak. Yes, everything is consciousness, but it's not stupid. God is not stupid enough to just let you sit there and imagine everything you want, then again, i do think there is some small room for the mystical and magic, like syncronicites and things, but they are far more rare than people think. But i do think there are instances where "god gets involved" but it's not how people think and it's best not to hinge upon or try to manipulate that domain. Like someone here said, give it a go, do your magick and manifestations for a month or 6 and see how far it actually gets you.

For sure, I'd agree with that. The only thing i'd push back on is for most guys is not that easy to learn attraction skills. There seems to be a ton of practice needed and then once they hit a certain "breaking point" its like they've unlicked attraction and it works for most women (because most women are pretty similar in what they find attractive). But yeah, if that's all you obsess about and work on while ignoring essential relationship aspects or just being a peice of shit (like Todd V or other pick up guys) then you will be terrible in relationship. It's not like figuring out attraction somehow unlocks a deep and fulfilling relationship. It is powerful to understand though, lots of women leave relationships or cheat because the guy doesn't understand atttraction

Most guys are completely run by their sexual energy, they have no control over it. A sexual urge comes, and it's straight to the Hub, like a mouse pushing a button for a hit of dopamine. I mean just look at this forum, the majority of you can't even fathom not touching your dicks for a week lol. I do think there can be a healthy relationship to porn, but it's like having a healthy relationship to your monthly cocaine night. I think most guys are addicted and don't know it.

Learning how to talk to woman and attract them while also maintaining integrity is probably one of the most powerful personal development routines, it teaches you so much

It also comes from self esteem, self esteem is a core pillar of confidence, and if you wank it to only fans all day i would imagine that hurts your self respect. It would for me at least. It would make me less powerful when talking to real women the next day. I feel weird watching another man have sex with a woman im attracted to, there is something kinda fucked up about it, i don't think it's natural

To each his own. I've found semen retention and sexual cultivation to be one of the most powerful practices i can implement as a man. And it's not like if i jerk off all confidence dissapears, it's more the principle of it. I just don't do that. If it's making you feel desperate/excessively horny/wired you are likely not sublimating the energy. Practices like yoga or chi gong or such can help with this, most people don't know about this essential second part of the nofap equation.

Definitely. I actually cut out the wifi in my house and live in bali so there's no "using data" i have found this to be absolutely pivotal to my levels of focus and drive. I have success with the feminine in one form or another almost every time i leave my house, no joke, it's actually quite astounding. I only have internet connection at cafes where i usually just write for my youtube channel so all scrolling, porn, texting, internet surfing has been replaced with reading, yoga, music and rest, so when i do go out the "dopamine hit" of putting myself out there and meeting women is almost second nature and done with little hesitation. Couple that with not allowing myself to nut unless it's with an actual woman and it's all supercharged
