How so? Isn't that a contradiction? You say you feel more clean when you don't fap and you are more connected to your emotions. That's a step in the right direction. As you don't feel numbed down almost drugged from masturbating. And then you say your life didn't change much . For me I consider that a hugh change .

@Knowledge Hoarder good .so a mixture of contradicting feelings . Do you feel better and more stable in emotion now than when you used to fap a lot ? Any changes towards the better?

Will do it. You can participate if you like.

we all know after you nut one out you just lose it for a while. But not too long lol. You should recover within two days max. Also if you are not a horny teenager anymore you really shouldn't be yanking your Johnson anymore . your testosterone just stabilize and you are not horny anymore unless you purposely arouse yourself. Just save it for your girl. Also avoid pornograhy completely I don't need to tell ya that and don't bullshit my ass and say it's harmless. Also make sure you eat like a horse if you fap frequently to recover the lost energy. Or just don't fap at all if you are weak.

Grandson :"Grandpa, Grandpa. I'm all confused." Grandpa: (groan) "Yes, what is it?" Grandson: "In today's class we analyzed the flight of an arrow with snapshots. Now the arrow moves in flight towards its target, but those snapshots don't show any movement which is a paradox. And I know none of those snapshots will show any movement no matter how many snapshots are taken. And if you say that all you need to do is measure the time between snapshots, that will mean there are gaps between snapshots and there are no movements in those gaps. Grandpa, grandpa I'm so confused." Grandpa: "Why don't you ask your teacher these questions? That's what he gets paid for." Can you help Grandpa out of this jam?

The guilt has justifications . In Hinduism they believe there is a limited amount of Chi (sexual energy) in your system. Once you ejaculate you lose this vital energy. And it can't be replaced by eating food or charging up your battery so to speak. Now i understand that you never run out of semen ..your testicle produces millions of spern cells every day . But the point is that the lost semen cannot be replaced. Its a new spern cells .what was lost will remain lost and there is no coming back

People are different . I admit that . For me personally I feel like a flimsy piece of shit after fapping. It takes you very very high but then very very down . By all means..you do you..iif you don't experience any side effects from it then go ahead and do it as much as you want. But for Me..I always get negative feelings after fapping. So you do you. And I do me .we are different.

Even though we haven't been born with a reason to exist, other than the fact that our parents and ancestors generally wished to further their genetic line, we can, on the other hand, each give our own life meaning by establishing our own personal reasons to make our lives meaningful or purposeful. The problem many seem to have with that is that you want there to be some grander reason for your existence, something beyond you, some transcendent reason, something that brings us in someway at least fractionally closer to godlike creatures rather than merely being the highest evolved animal on this planet where we live. After the human species conjured up Gods to worship, it was the next logical step that we would then imagine that we have some distinct connect with those Gods or that God, and less of a connection with the natural world from which we came. This effort to place some extra meaning or significance to our existence is simply an effort to inch us more closer to the God side of a line that has godliness at one end and the natural world at the other.

Maybe start with getting clear about why do you need a partner. I would start from there. In my opinion that's the obstacle and you should accept your unfortunate luck with women and build a happy and successful life regardless of whether you have a girlfriend or not . Of course, finding a person with whom you love and are happy to share your life and projects can be an ideal formula to grow as humans, but if that is not happening, you should not pause any aspect of your life, be unhappy or feel miserable. It is a mistake to think that you need another human being as a gateway to your happiness. You can achieve happiness even without having a partner. Do not get obsessed in the search for a partner and forget to realise that happiness is at your fingertips, in yourself and in everything around you.

I wasn’t asking why you think you will never get married or have a girlfriend . I was asking why do you think you need one in the first place? Why are you obsessed with women? What are you going to gain from a romantic relationship? Have you tired questioning that assumption? Are you open to the possibility that you can be 100% happy and satisfied with your life without a partner?

The realization that life has no meaning can also be the most liberating experience you can have. You can decide yourself what you want to do with your life. Seeing everyone you meet and everything you do as an endless stream of opportunities makes life incredibly rewarding.

Try viagra Just kidding lol For real tho..I only know how to spice up sex for a guy .we can take erection pills. We can eat spicy food .we can do kegel exercises. Also when a girl is talking dirty that also turns me on . Look up online for ways to achieve deeper orgasms for females .I'm sure using sex toys can help .

Why ?

@Loba damn .that scene.looks like a horrific movie .

Also pls add a brief storyline to the movie if you could. .don't just share the name of the movie.

We exist because one evolutionary path led to us, led to the existence of what we call ourselves: humans/Homo sapiens sapiens. That's the simplest and most direct answer. Anything more would have to deal with the mechanisms of evolution or more specifically the elements/details of the evolutionary path that resulted with humans coming into existence. But then, is that really a philosophical question, or is it an evolutionary science question? "Why do we exist?" is not a philosophical question!

Are we that sure that we exist, life comes from nothing as I see it, and letting the world come out from nothing is reasonably impossible and that makes us the same, impossible to exist or impossible to understand why we exist and then the reason to exist falls with that, as reachable knowledge. And if we exist so is that because we can do the impossible, and that is s a believe it a meaning in it self, if I can do the impossible then everything is possible when nothing is impossible instead of nothing is possible. And that may be the meaning of all, everything is possible!

I'm halfway through it and I'm very entertained. Thanks Leo. Keep up the good work ?

It get interesting when he started speaking about insanity and understanding his teaching. Leo's teachings are clear as the sun..the only question is do you have the balls to watch it?

Pretty heavy stuff. Thanks for sharing

@LastThursday always appreciate your mind However, The paradox still stands because the gaps still remain between the snapshots. You would need to take an infinity of snapshots to eliminate those gaps between snapshots which is impossible to do in this scenario. So we have a situation of movement and nonmovement in this scenario, a paradox. maybe I should explain why I titled this thread " time and movement paradox" instead of "A movement paradox." Well time is a good eyecatcher and it is intricately tied up with movement. You should compare this thread with Zeno's paradoxes, i.e. the one about the arrow (the significant difference is that in Zeno's day, there were no cameras to take snapshots). Could the problem be overcomed by simply using a video recorder, with a continuous filming motion. The premise is logically sound, gaps in time are excepted between frames due the nature of snapshots, without a point of reference, the theory of relativity specifically states the moving objects will appear motionless.

There is a great deal of discussion about the meaning of life as if that word "meaning" signifies something everybody understands. I can be useful to many people in different ways. I can be useful to a hamburger joint if I eat their hamburgers and I can be useful to a squirrel if I give it a peanut but does that satisfy my meaning in life? No matter how useful I prove to all sorts of creatures is my main purpose in being alive to serve squirrels? If not, then what determines my usefulness?

A message to myself.. .... Humility is the first step beyond nihilism. Ask yourself WHY you're asking this question in the first place. Ask yourself what you mean by "exist" and what "meaning" is? After that it may be useful to think about what you imagine a good and bad future could be for you. Decide whether you want a good future or and bad future and then decide if you're willing to suffer and strive toward the good or simply lie back and surrender all responsibility. You were born. You are here now. Go explore. Go find out what other people are out there, what other opinions people have, how far you can push yourself. Discover your limits and you'll discover "meaning".

I might come up with questions after I finish watching it . Let us guys know your thoughts on it.
