Nice Zen devil joke ! ?????????

Can't bust a nut

I won 't take your illusory advice into account ?

Call those guys, ASAP !!!

I didn't know Actualized.org turned into an internet tabloid. Good to know ?

All criticisms are untenable ? The video, Watch it

That's what happens every week on this forum ?

Practice practice practice ... You will suck at it at first, but that's the only way. If you couple this with lots of meditation and shadow work, and genuine acceptance, it will go waaaaay more smoothly.

You only have the shallow attraction on your side, watch again the video about what women really want. Hint: It's not money, status, loyalty, financial security or looks despite what they say. Most women don't know consciously what attract them, so you can't take their words about this. You can attract a woman on the short term with this if you have the other 5 points to a minimum, But you'll never keep her very long if you don't excel at at least 2/3 of the points that really push their buttons. Watch the video again. And don't fear to learn about the subject, you're just going to stay stuck. Yes you may not have to feel the pain to look directly at your flaws, but if you don't you'll always suffer like you do now, and worse and worse with time.

How much self deception there is, even when you genuinely try to ne honest with yourself, so much layers of deceptions. How long you can be stuck on concept land or experience chasing land, for some peoole it takes decades even their whole life to stop doing this. Easily in the top 3 reasons not to awaken. How simple it is, basically just being conscious, and it's not a doing past a certain point, you can't do being ?

Oh yes, You do, ???

Yes that's something I pondered for quite some time too. What if the «watcher» is still the mind, just a really subtle and more peaceful part of it watching everything else. I don't think we can answer this question before an awakening, imo it's just arrogance to say otherwise.

That's not an answer ?

Nonono, this is not about abstaining from sex, it's just about abstaining from loosing semen = energy. You can ejaculate inside, it's not that difficult, just read and apply the exercices found in «The multi orgasmic man». Maybe I should redone the post by explaining the difference between traditional Nofap and NoNut (=semen retention). The difference is that in the rirst one you abstain from porn because it fucks up your psychee on different level, In NoNut you preserve semen to be more productive and feel more energetic, but you can still have sex if you learn how to do it this way. You guys would want that ?

Good one ???

When you're lost in concept land, you don't know you're bullshitting yourself. You truly think you got it and do the work. ?

Realize that right now you don't truly understand or know 99.99999% of the thing you think you know about your life/states/country/world/science/whatever ... It's all hearsay or projections of the mind. So good luck conceptualizing infinity with the mind ???

Sure you can. No need though, life will throw enough challenges at you, Don't worry about that ???

They all said there is nothing to do and/or confirmed what you said.? We're fucked ??

Surrendering is not what the ego make it out to be. Surrendering is non psychological reaction to something unpleasant to your body/mind. It's not about suppressing desire, it's about accepting the situation if you can't do anything about it. In your exemple, if you're cold and can use something not to be, the logical course of action is to accept that you are cold, then seek for something to not be cold, and if you can't, accept that too. You would just experience a perception, neither good or bad. It works the same way for mental suffering, sadness or whatever «negative» emotion is just a perception too. Surrendering doesn't change anything, there is just no added mental resistance, suffering. Even, let's say, having your arm chopped off can be surrendered to, and you would not suffer from the pain, you would just experience the physical pain. That's what happens when people get tortured, the torturer knows that at some point his victim will stop suffering and will never give any info after that.

What about seeing this is a «dream» and that I am everything ?

That's what I was thinking actually. I only have the illusion that I'm doing anything am I ?

Stop to identify with thoughts, And start to identify to the thing which sees them. There is no need to calm the mind if you don't think you're it, you will just stop paying attention and silence will come when it comes. As long as there is a desire for a quiet mind, that is still a thought judging other thoughts, that will never work.
