I don’t think you’re ever truly 100% not “needy” on some level you DO need women, for many valid reasons. If you truly didn’t need them you wouldn’t even look at them, they’d be as significant as a styrofoam cup on the ground. Even the biggest players and ladies men on earth still need Women, if women disappeared they’d be massively depressed. So there’s power in owning that, YES they are amazing beautiful mysterious majestic creatures. They light us up, they bring feminine energy, sexiness, and fun that balance a masculine man out. Acknowledge the balance. Don’t try to be this stoic “I Don’t care” kinda guy. That’s a great way to guarantee you will go home alone every night. I promise you women will not run up to you begging you to fuck them because you’re cool “I don’t care” guy in the corner. Go out and try it, see how much sex you don’t have. But yeah, if you are clingy and putting too much pressure and projection into her she will feel it and coil away. The best attitude is to be interested but chill about it. Like “yes I’m interested, you are cute, but this isn’t life or death, if you reject me I’ll be fine there’s plenty more” The only way you can get there is through experience and skill. So keep going. Enjoy the ride. You’re doing nothing wrong. Way to go on kissing a hot goddess.

Yeah , i'm sure my view of it was skewed a bit, I just drove through on a Sunday so all the party crowd was leaving and it so dystopian. But i'm sure it's got nice parts and is chill in other ways

I once drove through Vegas, that was all i needed to see. It was one of the most Anti-Truth/God/Love places I have ever seen. It would def make me jadded and burnt out,

Hey man, I just wanted to say I really resonate with your post and everything you are saying here. I grew up in the US, Southern California and Texas. SoCal was dope but Texas was awful. Anyway, I went to college there and the second I graduated i got a job that let me travel remote (before it was mainstream, like 2017) This let me go to Colombia, Mexico, Bali, Brazil, Europe and I quickly learned that I had been a square peg trying to fit myself into a round hole my whole life. I always felt America was so tense, cold, and hyper competitve, and also just so indiviualistic with little care on community, connection or depth. I have been pursuing self actualization and consciousness for around a decade now and I spent about 8 years outside the US. For whatever reason this summer i had the "Call" to come back to America and see how it is. So i got an apartment in a city and have been living here for like 8 weeks now. Man.... It's tough to live here. I'm not going to say it's all bad, there are positives, and this is a nuanced thing, but for the cost of living for the value is totally not worth it. I've also found it really tough to meet people, everyone is just kind of on their own pace and even in yoga events, ecstatic dance, etc people just come- do the event- and leave. The ability to connect here is lost, it feels like people have lost that skill, the individualism of American culture has backfired massively. Without drugs, or alcohol most people just can't dive deep or be themselves. I went out to some clubs and bars to try and socialize or have fun, it was so soul draining. So much performance and everyone is high and drunk as fuck. I've partied in other countries, yet in other countries it feels more like a celebration of life (Like in Brazil) but in the US it's like a numbing/escape. Luckily I have only 1 month left here and i can't wait to leave. Im either going to move to Mexico or Brazil, likely Brazil it has more than everything I'd ever want. This was such a clarifying trip to me. I don't belong here, it's unconsious, and not very warm, it's tense, everyone is obsessed with politics. The dating scene is awful, the women here are mostly out of touch with their femininity for the large part- i couldn't hook up with them if i wanted to, so i've just been going into celibacy and semen retention practices here, which has been super potent. Idk, I just look around the city and get this huge "childish" vibe. Like everyone is living their little clay life, eating their avocado toast, walking their dogs, and living for the weekend, no one seems to be pursuing mastery of any sort and it's just coffee to scrolling to booze to porn to video games. My roomate is a good example of this, dude sits on his phone for 8-9 hours a day scrolling tik tok, then goes out to drink and fuck a random chick, his poor dog barely gets taken care of and i have to help it because i don't want it to suffer. One of the most challenging things about self actualizing and development is that it gets lonely. You no longer care about what the masses care about, you see it as a waste of time, energy, and an opening to karma you don't want. I simply can't connect on these values and interests and i don't drink or do drugs so that cuts out a good portion of bonding activities. Anyway, I think choosing to leave is a good call and you won't drown in debt either. There are much better places to live than America where you can find strong community and aligned vibes. This is just my take, so i hope people don't get butthurt and start flinging shit at me because my perspective makes them insecure about their own decisions.

Hey guys, this was my first time really trying to tackle this monster of a topic. I know it's not perfect but I hope I got the point across and people watching can at least catch a wiff of how influential their mind is on the reality they experience. For all my Stage Yellow/ Construct-Aware homies - lmk what you think!

Thinking you need Ms to live a spiritual life is incorrect. It’s not wrong or bad and if you can do it more power to you, but it can be a huge sidetrack and distraction. Making millions typically requires a lot of time and energy

Wise

I feel the same. The sad, unbiased truth is Israel and America are being like the axis right now. They are being evil. Genocide, aggression, criminal, breaking intl law. So I can’t really defend us in this scenario. I’m even considering leaving the US. I’m frankly shocked we helped Israel and how asleep the whole world seems about it. This isn’t about nukes it’s about power, regime change and ethnic cleansing.

the whole thing is absolute bullshit- netanyahu is a criminal and he is full of shit and somehow trump was spineless enough to join him. It's all a geo-political grab, he's been saying iran has nukes for decades- trump is just his little bitch i guess

criminals, both of them

God damnit

So… Contemplate it? maybe you have a different definition of what contemplation is- in my perspective it’s simply holding onto a question or curiosity and marinating in it until an insight occurs. Ie, “What is a cup?” Not thinking about it, but simply gazing upon a cup until the truth of its nature is revealed.

This again 🙄 This forum has no concept of feminine spirituality and how deep and embodied it is. I was contemplating today how we (most men on the path) spend hours sitting and meditating, trying to “get it” trying to control, while the feminine just lays in the grass and flows with what is- who truly is wiser?

Karma is a funny thing

He should just be single

I kinda get this- also relationships require a ton of time and energy, and it’s something you have to manage- it’s not ideal for a contemplative lifestyle.

Yes, not too well, but I know he has some powerful talks on manifestation and semen retention Exactly. It's definitely a trip, and explains why self-bias is so powerful Thank you Thanks for the feedback! I watched that series a while back but could revisit it, that was years ago Regarding the constructive creation, that's a great point, and honestly something I am still figuring out too. The wirings for reality to be THIS way are so deep that I think first we have to recognize we are DOING it, but then yes, create what you'd like from there, that takes serious consciousness work. Yeah, I tried to make it experiential through the examples but the truth is people have to spend those hours contemplating this stuff themselves. True, but I feel that there is a very strong "firewall" on the "individual" bubbles to where my bubble stays very consistently as mine, for example- i have never seen out of anyone elses' eyes.

Why do you feel this was all lost due to the relationship? Do you feel like you’ve settled? Does she challenge you to grow? Does she inspire you to pursue life purpose and be better? Im genuinely curious as I faced something similar earlier this year and decided the only way to get my full fire and “mojo” back was to end things and just be single.

I would agree with this. @Lyubov It sounds like you’re just maturing and stepping into a more stable life path. Learn to love it and change the perspective to going deep rather than spreading wide. It’s a maturity and there can be satisfaction in just rolling out stability, solid habits, deepening your relationship, etc. It’s likely the transition that feels weird bc a part of you is dying, and you’re being nostalgic about the old you

Aubrey Marcus is coming to my city for the psychedelic conference, I was considering going to his event, but I decided not to. Why give money and be a follower to someone with a delusional ego like this? Just gives him more validation. Also it gives psychedelics a bad name when you have an advocate who overdoes it and then rambles about crazy nonsensical shit like The God of Isis telling him to impregnate 2 women. I wonder if the turnout is smaller after all this or how the vibe will be there

For sure. No hate on being average- I guess he never really promotes himself as creating a profound life, it’s more just let getting through with as little suffering possible

It’s funny. I open this right after a disagreement with my brother, we are currently living together for a little bit but I plan to leave soon (2 weeks) One thing with family is they are the closest people yet distance and autonomy is a must. I love my family more than anything, but living with them or depending on them in anyway sounds like hell

Deleting old post. Done putting energy into this.
