Well, it's a bummer to hear. It's always there for you to explore it, if you find yourself curious. Never felt worse from doing it you know.

Have you ever done something with deities like Saraswati for example? I meditate on it or listen to music with it, there is definitely and definitively something there when it comes to creativity, inspiration and things happening our of sheer luck.

Ok, good point, I guess.

Hmmm.... Is it genetics? Is it some other substance, conducive environemnt, karma or merits of the past lives. I wouldn’t bet everything on genetics.

I underestand. Sorry if it seemed like I am attacking you personally. I am just being a creative idiot and ranting about what I see we are lacking. Anyhow. I would really suggest Fiverr for this person.

I am not sure this forum is the place for it. You can suggest them to use Fiverr etc. You know, there is a bigger problem I see regarding teaching beginners new instruments. It's a big market for beginners, but very little market, guidance and possibilities for people who want to become a pro on the instrument. If only goverment would give rooms for renting as a rehearsal spaces in my area, that is million times better than having a music teacher.

Thanks for a reminder to find that artsy chick I always wanted to have a bigger art project, preferably musical project with. BTW I discovered that I could just pitch shift all my tracks in a DAW project a 4th down and it sounds amazing, it sounds like I have a proper baritone guitar!!!

In a philosophical sense am not very post-modernist savy, although I might be propagating it and strongly believing in it, but I do like the art that it makes.

And 5 part series

I think the opposite. It will scale well, and give you very good examples and techniques. You will be surprised.

@joeyi99 the solution is complicated, yet practical and achievable. You need to tackle it from different ways. Some of it I can't help you with like pickup, going for it, meeting people, I am not good in this area. But! A part of shadow work, limiting beliefs, deep acceptance and reflection about the nature of death and yes, being alone and dying alone is something I would look into as it helps to build massive inner game when it comes to setting proper expectations. Of course, experience with the opposite sex also gives some of the necessary foundation. Good luck.

I do not do any single spiritual practice every day, because I sometimes skip my practices.

I haven't got any for 28 years 8) and I don't really care to be honest. The desire comes and it goes and the most time of the day I spend without wanting it. I am starting to think my talents lie in other things than that.

Diplomat, PR, public relations, press secretary, journalist sometimes can too

There are many practical ones, but the most important are the subjective ones. The subjective/epistemical ones can be a life and death question at some point in your life whether you have that underestanding or experience to even enjoy basic things in life or just not commit suicide in my opinion.

If you are asking to me I will say no, just because you have doubt. If you genuinely want to, no problem, go ahead. Just before you do, know what you need to do to sustain the relationship. It will not hinder your personal growth in general (if you use the time to reflect), but your personal growth will go in different direction than your current model.

Yes, I strongly believe you can solve some of your basic problems like eating, fitness and even spiritual satisfaction and fulfillment on some of your deepest desires. There is a big difference in the quality of life than to live my life as is. Which is not terrible, but if the possibility is there, why not use it.

That doesn't guarantee better survival. Your spouse can get terminally sick or get disabled. Your spouse can divorce you. Your spouse can spend all your money. Your spouse can plot to harm you. Your spouse can lose their income. Your spouse can become depressed, defeated, lazy. Your spouse could become abusive so it's hard to bear them mentally. Children make survival harder btw and all of those attributes applicable to spouse are applicable to your children. However you do get it easier I guess when people share responsibilities, but it also gets quite limiting. You can good at survival, get bored or depressed because that's merely not enough for you and you can divorce them or become restless and lose everything in life. I think it's the wrong reason to get together.

The Daliban has raided your blog @Leo Gura

He is pretty intellectually open and honest, so I think it can go very well.

I just say a few things. Sorry if I offended you. That is my opinion on Ralph Smart. And that I am very grateful to have and listen to a shiva as a human being in my life, even trough the internet. Yes, Ralph Smart also helped me on the way, but people I shall not name right now, including Sadhguru have brought value and tools to my life I couldn't have dreamed of. To my very dear people in my life I would recommend them, however, I can't discuss this with people. I will be labeled as I am in some cult or I am crazy or I am religious fanatic. Also I don't want to associate with the people who follow these people blindly. While whatever works, their actions is what repel me and they can start to push me to follow with them. But these people. Have provided me so much of depth in my life. I can't believe still I have this gift in my life. No matter what happens. And I was seeking it. I was listening to whomever I can find, I was seeking pretty intense at some points of my life. I was trying to reach it. I almost went to India. But I found what I needed to find. Now I just have to live well and take care of my body and keep practicing the teachings these people continuously provide. Knowing what a Guru can bring, Ralph just doesn't have it. I can feel it lacking in him nor his actions or words show it. Gurus make you feel blissfull for no reason. Even without saying anything. Just look at a picture of Ramana Maharishi for 5 minutes. It is there. It will always be. Now, our society is what it is. The courageous will look silly for the truth. The mediocre will act silly to hide from the truth. The truth is not just what the guru says, but the truth is that which is true on it's own. Whatever it is, either you are aligned with it or not determines whether another lifetime has been wasted or some conscious evolution has really happened. The difference is night and day and you can't miss it.
