Easier to understand people, sure. But it turns into a game of acting where I pretend to relate with their worldview. Otherwise they sense the nonchalantness from me.

I just read the blogpost and yes, I agree with others here. Makes one think: what is the point of a normal human being (everyone in the audience) to consume / study this? Even if they do, they just close off and become defensive, which will definitely not lead anywhere good. Finally, you can come across very arrogant ’Mr. Above Everyone Else’, which is not good either for the same reasons. Every year I am more and more convinced this is a work you don’t intentionally go out to spread and teach others. If they want to learn, they come to you. As you said, this is too hardcore. I suggest toning the disclaimer down. I understand why you think it is so important, but at the same time, you are setting quite the impossible frame to begin with. As someone with a personality type where its core thrive is social harmony, and an absolute natural at it, and who has struggled their whole life to spread these more hardcore stuff to others.. you gotta be more subtle with it. If you want others to learn that is, which I assume is your goal, otherwise what’s the point? It’s a subtle skill to go into someone’s world and jujutsu them to open up to the possibility of something completely outside their paradigm. This is very different to having people intentionally entering your world to learn from you, where you can then be much more direct (Youtube), and even then you have to hold back (Solipsism video).

Viking. Someone needs to ask AI to give those faces a viking hat

@Leo Gura Who reached out to whom in this endeavor? It would be very interesting to hear that they reached out to you. @Natasha Tori Maru Great wisdom from you on this thread.

@Alexop You said it brother.

You are correct. Women are also many times horny and need it satisfied, even tho they are not in a place to look for a deeper relationship. That being said, I might be looking at this through the lenses of a being a bigger person myself. My intuition says that men have a bigger responsibility overall in leading our society, and especially in this context, as we use women for sex far more than the other way around. Men are the leaders. We should be leading our females and humanity to a better place. But this is all from an idealistic place. The reality is that most people are selfish and unconscious as fuck, and incapable of leading anyone anywhere good.

I used to have ton of FWBs and casual relationships. Mostly to feed my ego. Come to think of it, I had a huge hippie free love phase. Now the concept has become so foreign to me. Treating a person as just a sexual release use, wow. If I don’t like the person enough to treat them with intimacy and care, then I’ll just find one that I like enough. I wonder how much damage we cause the women by leading them into casual relationships.

This is extremely interesting.

I don’t think this thread is going anywhere good.

Are you an ENFJ lol. Some years ago I had a deep realization, that I might have been so deep into spirituality and into spreading it from so early on, because I wanted to spread social harmony, as that is the main drive for my type. And spirituality at its highest and most ideal place, is the ultimate Social Harmony. But as years go by, and I still thrive to go deeper in Truth seeking, despite it directly affecting my mission for social harmony negatively — since most peole are too unconscious to be taking in real Truth and Spiritiuality, and in fact, despises it.

Yes, of course. My feet are one of the core to my dancing. It’s called footwork in the scene.

As a dancer of 20 years and incredible control of their body, I’m reading this thread like: 👀

Closing the year, I want this thread to be a safe place for you to share your true feelings, and to for example, share what you are currently struggling with the most? What is making you sad? Hopeless? Is there something you are truly proud of and happy about? Maybe something you achieved this year? Let us try to find more clarity and peace going into the new year.

@Spiritual Warrior Great share. Glad to have another dancer here as well. How old are you, since you still plan on competing?

If humanity didn’t evolve, we would still be throwing spears at each other. The reality is that humans today show much higher degree of empathy than thousands of years ago. We will evolve, it just takes enormous amount of time, which is why it is so valuable. It’s not a bug, it’s a feature.

Thank you. Much love to you brother ❤️

But then he wouldnt be so popular anymore

Very good!

I know right? This is why you ought to be very careful of spiritual teachers, and people in general who have reached awakenings but haven’t done the human work.

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing. I might write my own later, altho I kinda already did in the thread I started the other day. There is definitely a big hole in the market for Healthy Pickup. Even in a community like this, you see it lacking. When I first joined this community, I expected there to be mostly people who had mastered pickup, transformed it into a healthy version, and finally even transcended it. I was shocked to find out the truth. That being said, how many really resonate with a healthy version of pickup, since as you said: people who get into it tend to be more mentally broken people. Normal, healthy men look for dating oppostunities via other means.

Simpliticity is sitting on your ass, meditating 10 hours a day for a week.

@Hello1 We do much more serious work here. Really, what Eckhart Tolle teaches in a way cannot even be described as spiritual work. It’s children’s game. It’s pure fantasy.

Eckhart Tolle’s teaching is very soft and beginner friendly. There is a reason he is so famous and appeals to a wide range of audience.

When I was in my early twenties, I loved listening to Sadhguru. Nowadays I cant stand him, nor most spiritual teachers. Honestly nowadays my own mind, and my own silence are so much more enjoyable and interesting.

Lol, I just realized this was supposed to go to the Conformity thread. Heh
