  1. Past hour
  2. I don't think like this.
  3. exactly that . What’s your point? I will flip the script on you for you . Riddle me this : for your entire have quenched your thirst through drinking water. How do you know that next time you drink it won’t just quench you? just to be clear ..obviously this world seems to follow static rules. But what keeps those laws constant ? Please contemplate seriously .
  4. Why?
  5. @Someone here Yep I largely agree with your summary. Causality appears inferred to me
  6. Of course you are right. I like the topic of the self, then if there is the opportunity of talking about it I will do because thinking about the topic is a pleasure for me, but at the end it's a nonsensical argument
  7. So basically you're saying that causation necessitates language and thought? Or even awareness?
  8. Descartes famously argued that animals were machines who didn't have sentience and an inner life. Therefore they couldn't feel pain and suffering. Which helped then proponents of cartesianism torture animals. However when i first heard this story i was contemplating how could this be true. However finally after a while, i awoken today and realized life is a dream. And just like in a dream, others aren't real, hence both humans, and animals are fictions within this dream, within God's mind.
  9. Drink a glass of water. What is that experience?
  10. @Joseph Maynor I explained it to the best of my ability. That’s simply it . In the physical world an event follows and event following an event . The idea of causation isn’t in actuality . It’s in your head .
  11. My requirements for beauty and hotness changed all the time. As I got more and more results with girls in my youth, I constantly remember realizing ”that one girl 6 months ago wasn’t hot at all, what was I thinking”. Also, simply maturity has changed my taste for looks. The more I mature, the more I like natural beauty, elegant, and classy. But I also like artsy and different looking girls, as long as it’s done with taste, and not gone overboard. So yes, my taste definitely has changed a lot throughout the years.
  12. I respect this, but what you are doing is concluding what you or someone else goes thru when they drink a glass of water. This is ridiculous on some level.
  13. Yes it’s a huge philosophical conundrum. Simply put with an example: you are thirsty . So you drink a glass of water . Then you feel hydrated and refreshed. You then conclude the quenching of thirst happens because you drank the water. what ACTUALLY happened in physical reality is drinking the water followed by the feeling of satisfaction. Now ..”quenching of thirst was created by drinking “ . This statement is NOT found in the physical world . It’s a mental abstraction. What you have in the actual world is thirst +drinking + quenching. An event following another event . “Causation “ is NOT found in the world . It’s a mental interpretation.
  14. @LordFall I hate having to qualify myself but fuck it, seems like your inquiry is sincere so lets talk about it. Bro, I have 10 years of pickup experience. That includes social circle, cold approach and online dating. I don't know my exact body count, but it's definitely up there, and I've attracted GORGEOUS women of all kinds of archetypes (ice queens, local mini instagram celebrities, goth baddies, submissives, etc, of all ages and ethnicities). I could pull at least one new girl home a week if I cared to do so. And when I used to actively do social circle game, I wasnt attracting people who were interested in business or some other common interest. No. My entire social circle revolved around ME. I was the leader and everyone just wanted to spend time with me because I was providing the most value emotionally, confidence-wise, validation-wise, etc. I understand attraction VERY VERY well and I've gone through every phase in the journey -- such as the technical stage, the strategic stage, the hunting stage, the farming stage, the natural stage, the letting go stage etc. When I say the things that I say, I'm saying them from an experienced perspective. Im not some dude thats just sitting in this forum theorizing this stuff with you guys. The reason it took me so many years to quit PUA was because I was out here fucking, consistently, hot girls on a weekly/monthly basis and letting that type of dopamine source go was not an easy task. In fact, it would have been very easy if I wasn't getting anywhere with it. I'm not discrediting your strategies, dude. You misunderstand me. Clearly they work. But what I am saying is that your current journey isn't leading you towards optimizing your strategies and your approach further. The journey is leading you towards realizing that all this work is fucking pointless, all the optimizing is pointless, the strategies are pointless because what you're pursuing is actually yourself THROUGH the women and until you skip the middle man, you'll never be fully fulfilled nor at your most powerful. It's very common that when I go out, girls are constantly staring at me, or giving me signals to approach, or inviting me to hang out with them, or escalating on me because they can feel it in their bones that I dont give a single fuck. The hottest woman I ever dated was a Croatian/Dutch beauty that had celebrities pursuing her, yet I had her in my single bed, in a 9 square meter room, begging me to have sex with her while I wanted to continue watching the Venom movie on my laptop. This is the kind of power that you get as a man when you stop caring and you let this shit go. You become irresistable because your true natural state as a man is STRENGTH. The only thing robbing you of that is your neediness and lack of self connection. When you truly embody this, setting boundaries is easy, being charismatic is easy, leading is easy, expressing yourself sexually is easy, everything just flows. Once you get in touch with WHY you're truly doing what you're doing and you learn how to give that to yourself, the performance finally ends and everything you ever wanted starts to come to you in abundance. @LordFall will just do what he does and the right women and men will just naturally be there. No strategy, no optimization, no work needed. Just pure screening. The mindfuck aspect of this is that when you truly reach this level, you dont even care about girls anymore. But you might not be there yet and that's okay. I doubt I would be where Im at if I didnt go through the journey first.
  15. Haha, I knew it!!! Magic a million from behind my ear.

  24. Please don’t troll him. He is sharing something that feels genuine to him in the moment. Obviously some kind of flicker switch or insight dawned on him and he thinks he grasped something beyond the mundane stuff you suggest. This is the spirituality and awakening section.. if you’re after ”fucking hot woman “ is essentially thinking with your dick . There is a section for this. What OP is expressing is what Leo repeats day and night regarding what the highest degree of awakening is. Btw when I say “thinking with your dick” I’m not disrespecting you..it’s just I notice you are obsessed with dating and with your lay count . By all means pursue your authentic desires shamelessly..just don’t expect different human beings in different phases of lives share the same priorities as you.
