Lack of abundance and Incompleteness for sure. If you have done spiritual practice and you have experienced bliss, and temporary completeness, the thought of chasing girls and attraction is non-existent in those moments.

Mark Manson wrote that practicing vulnerability (vulnerability: intentionally making your desires and intentions been known) is the gateway to being non-needy. I mean I think we can all agree that this is true, ofc practicing vulnerability will help us be more indifferent to people rejecting us. This is lowkey rejection therapy. but does this truly cure neediness? Like Leo says that you should actively create abundance in your life, then you will naturally be less needy and your abundance will grow even further due to non-neediness. Like I’m having several experiences..and am seriously trying to look through the lense of truth..what’s really true here? Please leave your opinions for discussion.

I figured it out. The part of the spoon or fork that bends is cast in Gallium which has a melting point of 85.5 degrees. Notice for instance the bright concentrated light where the fork tines bend. Gallium can be easily obtained on Amazon. So, all you would need to do is make an impression of a fork in clay. Cut the tines off and replace the missing material with molten Gallium. Then do your magic trick under a bright concentrated heat source such as a high intensity spotlight. He could even have an electric heater going under the table. Notice when he puts the spoon down it continues to bend? -

Usually when I meditate I get some creative or useful insights that are not necessarily spiritual in nature. For example songs, some problem you've been working in your life, understanding of a concept. What do you guys do? Do you ignore them and continue to meditate as normal, do you write those insights? Granted, some of these insights get in your mind and if you don't take note of them they are gone forever(like a insightful dream you will never remember) . This is part of the let go proccess right? -- even if good ideas come to you you let them go away. -

Ok, if you need that stance to maintain your narrative, then don't change it. When you are attached to an identity, it's very unbalancing being without those structures. Im sorry if it seems that I tried to put them in doubt. -

Yes you are going through the nihilism phase realizing of those insights . it’s temporary . You can look at the same truths in two different ways. An example would be the realization that you are 100% NOT responsible for anything in your life …..you can look at this as a depressing fact or liberating fact . as we get older we start feeling cooked because we gain more life experience and maturity. We start growing sick of certain things in life . The phase of losing mojo for life is over here. If you have your daily food and shelter and hopefully good health then really what is missing ? What are you expecting from life ? -
Perhaps this too is deceit. Ive got to dig deeper.

Got it, thanks.

Roses are a cheap trick. We all know that one. Get your swallow a special flower.

It would appear as if there is no way out. Not a single hidden lever or hatch.

The deceit is quite literally inescapable. It arises both within my mind & without into the rest of the world. It is a feedback system where the deception reinforces itself both ways. Exactly everything is laced with deceit.

Embodied agency, starts with embodied Imagination. 15 minutes at least of training per day (-will be teaching more deeply when 21st april drop on Project Meaning lands) Embodied imagination is like a ladder basicly. If u can imagine a scene u can start recruiting contact, texture, sensation. If u can imagine sensation u can generate feeling tone, and if that feeling tone holds together long enough it starts acting like a strategic mirror, where the imagined enviroment doesnt just sit there but reflects back a possible self, posture, orientation, appraisal pattern, action-readiness etc. Now you can start imagining purpose built mirrors that serve the sole purpose of generating the consciousness outcome,s aka emotions, that u want And when u get enuf practice then emotion if thats the exampl2 can be generated way more reliably, not by trying to force emotion first, but by staging it thru scene + bodily sense + texture + meaning. Then higher agency becomes trainable. Bc imagination isnt just “seeing stuff” anymore, its regulating state, identity, behaviour, maybe even consciousness structure. Best entry points is high familiarity memory primers, childhood homes, parents car seats, beaches, rooms, objects, body positions, bc 1 recalled sensation tends too recruit others and rebuild a whole embodied world around it. So the movement is image > sensation > feeling > strategic mirror > emotion > agency. Meaning imagination isnt just fantasy its a self simulation system, emotional generator, and developmental tool for deliberate self construction. This is free will made practical, while at the same time having to admit that youre creating a simulation in every moment, youre just not consciius of it.... yet.

@UnbornTao yed depression is a broad term but understand it in this context. I'm talking about that nihilistic feeling from being striped from conditioned external systems of meaning and value. you become misunderstood, judged, lonely, can't fit in, and lost and see life as one giant meaningless absurd existance. you know, the stereotypical saying of "ignorance is a blessing" and "awareness hell" there's this lame ass quote by Fyodor Dostoevsky that goes: "the more you understand the world, the more you destroy yourself. that's why fools are happy and intelligent people live in loneliness"

Maybe. But set that aside. I wasn't asking for a plausible, rational explanation or answer. Look into the existence of the depression. It's also possible that you're talking about more than one thing. I'd suggest you get even clearer on what things you're actually referring to. It sounds like you're using depression as a very broad category encompassing other feeling-states. Regarding depression, for example, how does it relate to time? In relation to what time period does it exist? Now, past, future? What are its components? Again, something to explore experientially. And by the way, it seems to me that we tend to conflate identifying something in our experience - labeling it, giving it a name, having a fixed conception around that experience - with being aware of what it is, its nature. I'd be wary of this confusion we often fall into.

Amazing book.

Wow what a beautiful voice and man. Some where over the rainbow we will meet again my Angel.

loss of direction, meaning and clarity. and identity uncertainty. too much uncertainty without clear direction. (there are exceptions, like loss of loved ones, struggle with survival, physiological stuff like you said...)

Fellow INFP here. Thank you for making this thread as I've thought about making one for years. I hate to break it to ya, but I think we have it the hardest out of all the personality types. You're partiallty right that mass-approaching is stupid in the sense that it doesn't promote connection. That strategy is pure numbers game. At times it can produce success if you remain detached enough and have a lot of fun. Of the hundreds of approaches I've done, it's only worked a few times. Most of the time I'd just get disgusted being in loud clubs talking to rude, judgemental, desentitized, drunk people. That's why I became more interested in day-game. The framework you are searching for is a bit of a unicorn. The way I'm approaching it is I've been stripping out and keeping some of the useful RSD tactics, while discarding all the toxic stuff. Then combining that with doing shadow work. Which means letting go / somatic therapy to become more relaxed in my authentic self. I actually haven't done a lot of approaching in the past couple years. And honestly my results -- or the amount of satisfaction I'm getting romantically -- has been about the same. I thnk it comes down to TONS of experimentation. Not just with game, but most of all with WHO YOU ARE. - Are you on purpose in life? Does you mission make you feel like a badass? - Do you love where you are living? Does it give you the thrills? - Do you have cool hobbies to bring girls into? Having these different universes to share with girls and getting excited about them is what helps me. I highly recommend reading this book. Best book out there on seduction. Especially as an INFP!

@Natasha Tori Maru yeah, but it's more like a skill than a mindset. it is play for extroverts because they're naturals. and True, Leo has done it and also his videos around game and relationships are king.
