Hello from Russia

It's hard for me to imagine society structure without most of the population being dogmatic\ideological

Read about monks from mountain Hiei. There is a book in Leo's booklist about them. They pretty much do marathons for enlightenment, it's kinda exactly what you're seeking

Especially in situations when you're faced with uncertainty, have limited information and get pressured from external\internal sources

This is amazing

I still did some kind of Hatha yoga in my Vipassana retreat to stretch my body, they were fine with it I highly suggest to sneak up a journal and a pen! You'll probably have some great insights\epiphanies you'll want to write down. Probably take a few pens, not only one. I broke my pen in my retreat so I had to sneak\steal a public pen everytime I wanted to write something. I felt like I'm on some kind of stealth mission each time . But it was fun

If you mean physical touch\going for a kiss by "making a move" - of course do that instead of "asking"

Context ^ Very beautiful concept. But how do you do it properly? I find when I try this principle too much I become more rigid and have a feeling as though I act from moralistic perspective. As though I HAVE to act like this. And not even that, what is it really if not surpressing your emotions for some future gain? You have to let go of your desire to cum inside her and use a condom in that moment. But in the moment you really want to do it! You end up surpressing your desire. And I found when you do it too often the neurosis starts to build up. Because you're not expressing yourself enough. You suppress your desires for the sake of doing "the right thing". And it actually works, you usually gain huge benefit or avoiding trouble doing that. But it's very taxing on your psyche and I really feel it . I get this "stage orange" overburn feeling when I do this too often. Can someone advice on how to apply this technique properly without "burning out" emotionally from it? I am trying to become more relaxed\care-free in general, but this thing stands on my way as I also want to integrate good "orange" things in me to be able to generate more results in my life. I'm probably ignorant on some components on how emotions really work and not doing it 'correctly". Please, share your experience how you apply this or similar "moralistic" techniques and balance it out with emotional "saneness"

@aurum Good point, thank you

@Aimblack I didn't see how Leo enumerated how he was wrong about anything in his blog, can you elaborate?

Tbh there is nothing special about stage yellow pickup. You'd rather spend your time imagining what stage turquoise pickup is, and what stage turquoise relationship is. This is really golden and worth pursuing. You can get some ideas from David Deida and "spiritual" sex books (tantric sex, dao sex, jing-jeng, etc)

Super nice post

Notice how you attach a negative meaning to meaninglessness and how all meaning is fictional, negative meaning included

Although i'm in a relationship with a girl right now who has good chunks of yellow in her I don't think it's that necessary to neurotically try to find such girl on purpose in your age. Any green girl would suffice and be of great value

Real pickup looks natural and is not recognized as pickup. I actually have a quote for ya - "Pickup is like plastic surgery, you only see it when it's bad" What worked for me is I started to escalate only with girls I really like so that I can authentically say "I like you" to them and really mean it with all my heart. They sense this authenticity off of you and it's really attractive as they want the guy who truly wants them, not the guy who is fake. I don't really consider myself a PUA, for me it is about seeing the girl you really like\want and taking a proactive action to get her

I usually read on my 13' inch laptop I bought specifically for reading. I love PDF's and use Foxit PDF software to read everything, it's very convenient

Funny thing, I thought you're too obssessed with being greedy with your semen (you mentioned in one topic you didn't want to cum for one girl) but now I'm starting to share your perspective

I think you're pretty cool. I enjoy reading your posts on no-fap and semen retention

This is great, Thanks! Do you know any good software for this?

Pleasant to read. Let us know how it all went with the girl

Title. Seeking new ideas and inspiration Also would be cool to hear how did you start and what were the first steps you took. Btw, if someone is looking for online assistant for his business to delegate certain tasks (client support, ads, social media management or anything else) - feel free to DM me

That's a tough dilemma for me aswell. I found when I don't fap for too long then it' becomes harder for me to ejaculate with woman.

I think it should be decent, but imo there are more advanced teachers\material with good spiritual background. Spirituality and self-development go hand in hand as consciousness work is the single best thing to transform your psyche. I'd advice checking Peter Ralston's "spiritual" trilogy (Book of now knowing, Pursuing consciousness and 3rd book). Especially I recommend "Pursuing consciousness", it's all about personal transformation based on enlightenment theory. Tbh as I read more of his books I see how much this guy influenced Leo and his content. A pretty big chunk of best Leo's content is based on Peter Ralston's teachings. He teaches you how to contemplate properly, how to unwire the Self and all concepts you have, what emotions are, what concepts are, etc., tons of good stuff, highly recommend. Of course a lot of this stuff Leo already talked about in his videos, but these books are a bit better structured and you go straight to the source with them. And if you're interested in pickup side - check The natural lifestyle on youtube. Here is a bunch of guys who are using meditation and nondual teachings as primary tool for bettering your dating life. And they usually have pretty intense spiritual backgrounds

@Max_V How do you react do dairy?
