I think we shoul DM or chat or maybe talk. I do have relevant topics for you. The only difference is that I am a virgin. I have the same tendencies. Periodically i get to transform more and more of that desire to what I want. It has to do with alot of things. Also in this particular field - you have to find what really works for you. But the reason I would like to chat e.c.t. is to hear your story. If you want to be a high-achiever creatively, I think you need to look into this issue to get more time in your day to gather exponentially more possibility to be a really expressive and well rounded artist. Also this can come from other things like loneliness, confusion, not being artistic e.c.t.

How many?

Guys, guys, please stop... or I will call my daddy.

Life seems different and the facts of truths about life, objectively and subjectively, usually are different if not much different ot r the opposite from what it seems. For example, what healthy food is, and what people around you say healthy food is, see if they are healthy and trough self-inquiry and struggle you will start to know, or at least go in that direction. This is true for pretty much everything - what is reality, what is the most important thing for you to know in your life, what is possible, how much should you believe your current beliefs about life, how good can you get at certain life's skill. Nothing is set in stone and definetly what it seems to you currently or what others tell you. They might aswell have no idea, but they love to project that they know, most of this come from insecurity about themselves.

Well, lazy people are dangerous for a dude who wants to be active and active people are danger for lazy people's laziness. Both get challenged. Don't bother, do your thing. Let that pain lead to transformation and Self-acceptence. Over time you will develop more and more self-trust, when you act and see your models working.

Well, whatever Leo pulled of, that must be next level mental chess right there.

I would turn to @Emerald for more details.

Well, I have one or two examples that go aginst it. In games like Dota 2 or Starcraft 2 where the meta is constantly evolving and in Dota 2 especially, the playstyle is so versatile and there are so many strategies, so that some very high level players do come up with a really out of the box strategy and win tournaments. Alot of starcraft cheese comes to mind, proxy nexus in enemies base and stuff like that. Some Dota 2 strats come to mind for example Topsons diffusal gyrocopter, satanic weaver, carry aghanim's wisp, and alot of very intetesting pro level hero drafts, item choices and very subtle cheesy strats I have never seen before. These games with patches, there the rules somewhat changes, except the main goal, which people do forget and lose alot of games to that. But to think outside of the box, you gotta ha mve a gaming practice routinewhere you sit alone in a lobby and look for holes in the meta e.c.t.

Yes, but if I showed you the teacher, you might aswell tought he is a scammer. But there is and I am practicing it.

@Zigzag Idiot I wholeheartedly agree with you. I think the main goal is to not take your own tantrums and others tantrums seriously, because there is no reference point of you. And if you entertain the emotions related to complaining they will deepen and if you cultivate gratefulness then that will deepen. From all the other ways of looking at it, even pratically, when my sleep is disrupted night after night, I don't really complain and if I do it's not genuine. I see tremendous worthiness in my life. How much I can contribute despite everything. And what is there to complain about? You will take however many births you want, you will surely experience everything you want, again with the reference point problem, because we are not remembering the past lives e.c.t. But even if you feel complete, your complaint is for others. Enlightened beings are pretty disagreeable if you start digging. If you just look what kind of sheninigans George Gurdjeff pulled on his disciples. Sometimes you have to tell a criminal that he is a criminal or an idiot that he is an idiot, but yes, complaining can fall of very quickly and victim mentality is the problem #1 in our entire existence perhaps.

Sadhguru has told alot of info about breath on youtube, particularly on his sadhguru exclusive. If you want to inquire about the breath, alot of yogis and monks generally are the way to go. A bhuddist monk also has alot knowledge about the breath, shinzen young comes to mind.

May I add to this. I would say that objectifying is a masculine tendency that is unfortunatly expressed too much in men and women. It is usually about, well I have this, what do you have? If you are a young male you should be having this and this by 25, or I will not value you. Alot of older generation has this, conservatives especially. They will not accept you for who you are and want to be. You have to do what they were doing and have what they were having and even then, you will not be accepted as an equal.

It is quite incredible how consistently and with how much tought and effort you try to dismantle such posts.

Hey, hope I relieved you! Thanks for your feedback, it really means much to me. IMO, you shouldn't quit guitar or leave metal influence out of your playing. Or stop doing something because it seemed frustratinf at that time. I am acctually try to solve that exact problem by looking at it from various angles. How should my lifestyle be, to make such music, what are most efficient ways of doing it when I am with the instrument, what can you do without the instrument. How to keep consistency from the very basics, stabilizing how you feel or the amount of say you have in how you feel so you can choose more often. What are the best things to resolve to do creative work and how to. I will do series in my journal of making all of that as efficient as I can. Stay cool, keep calm!

I had soreness too when I vaccinated against mite encephalitis, I think that is very normal.

@Preety_India well i am sorry to sound a bit harsh, but: - the worse the situation gets, the less rules people will follow; - the more the need to work, just to survive, the less rules people will follow; - with poverty, overpopulation and limited healthcare resources, meaning different antibiotics for different fungi, this can potentially go out of hand really fast, taking in the fact that it may uncontrollably spread, meaning there is another curve to flatten and some fungi can become resistent to antibiotics that are used in the treatments for patients currently; - and if people die and they are thrown in ganga, animals eat those fungi infected bodies and then people eat those animals, because they have nothing to eat will contract the fungus, because of high dose of fungi and supposedly lower immunity, covid also being the direct reason; Countries around the equator are really screwed in my opinion. But a covid vaccine can possibly eliminate all of this, though there is no 100% guarantee, however the fungi infections rise to those, who are sick, freshly treated with covid and have their health already compromised due to diabetes e.c.t. This is what I meant with that prase, unfortunately.

If you are in india, please please please do, ASAP. There is also white fungus and other kind of fungus infections happening there. I think people will die like flies over there. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-57027829.amp https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/world/2021/may/21/mucormycosis-black-fungus-disease-linked-covid-spreads-india

Yep, but I do underestand, really. Keep visioning it in great detail and see that it provides such peace and timeless feeling. Life celebrates you when you make it as you want. It is your birthright to wish and get something, unless it is dangerous for you. Also, I think you can adress the low-paying job things with different strategy. I think you can send your work application and get interviews left and right, even if they don't have any wanted signs, i think better job is pretty much an assignment away. Sure alot of jobs have different pros and cons but what I would do/am doing is to just bounce around to see what options are there. You probably can smoothly between jobs, no need to quit right away. AND if you do take spiritual development "all the way" seriously, your main concern wouldn't be your circumstances, because for THAT, everything can be a stepping stone, then your practices and desire for the truth is important.

@Preety_India thanks for your answer. Well, at least I feel, ethics is an axiom that came from morality which came from law, at least in my underestanding. Ethics may involve an element of empathy. But at the end of the day, it's all about the reception of the loss or break, betrayal e.c.t. while ethics is a flexible pool of notions about how one should act, the pain for whatever reason is pretty solid. I don't think a binary answer is not applicable to this question, if it can be answered at all, and what an answer can explain (both yes or no to this question in particular)?

I am having the same question.

I wanted to express the whole situation in one small sentence: "You can't spell sex without an Ex." Do you really think he will not ask for it, try to turn you on or "she will give in if i play good for a certain period of time."

But they say Buddha has mystical powers, there is videos on that by chinese practicing buddists. I very vividly remember a buddist monk mentioned a navel center when he gave us instructions on mantra/visualisation technique to unclutch from the breath.

From what I have heard and my experience i can say that a glimpse of enlightenment is not necessarily correlated with feeling your energies rising to saharsrar, and I don't think there are alot of people who can direct their energies at will. Also I have heard, when SUCH a thing happens, if you don't know or don't want to hold on to the body, you will leave the body, and you will be in such an ecstasy for no reason. And if you are practicing a lifestyle that is for liberation, whatever the sadhana is, you will feel energies in your sahasrara, or around that region. That is my daily experience and it is largely unconscious. If I force it, it may hurt. But if I do it right, for certain period of time, then i think that will be my mahasamadhi, where you leave the body trough sahasrara. I recommend warching sadhgurus videos about his wife's mahasamadhi. It is more practical to say/think that a part of you is permanent, rather than trying to cognize that one can/will center his energies permanently on sahasrara. You cognizing you as permanent will itself lift your energies up.

Yes. Praise can be more dangerous than blame and ridicule. It can make you arrogant. It can derail you from what you want to achieve e.c.t., make you relapse and be lazy, seek more of it or run into too much pleasure, procrastination. And we all know what an echo chamber is and that if you do something to be validated, you will burn out. But i think it's about the reception, i wouldn't mind giving praise to somebody whom I want to, regardless of my hypocrisy, @Derek White pointed out.

Just look at Owen, he has mastered some aspect of the social aspects in life. He is magnetic, extremely charismatic, knows how to "hang out" so that maximum number of people have a good time and probably knows how to say no, how to retreat. It's not just about dating that this works. Words can make somebody ruin your life, right words can cause your life, de-escalate conflict. Attract right kind of people. Socialy speaking, you are worth that what and how you are expressing. The streets got something for you. Either it can take everything from you and gice what you want. Have to be careful, sometimes it punishes your greed, somtimes your non-expression. If you were hostile to everybody, immagine how TERRIBLE your life would be, you would be on the street, because you can't properly relate to anybody, and on top of that, somebody would kill you for the smallest of things. So presenting yourself and enabling your self-expression is whats pick up seemingly can do, besides getting you laid, at least that's what tyler radiates.
