  4. Status-Seeking Is A Mental Virus

    Rafael Thundercat replied to CARDOZZO's topic in Personal Development -- [Main]

    And even if all this is true, I am being reminded about what Leo Gura say in the video The Value of Truth. That if you dont be carefull you can end up in a position that your Truth Seeking get compromised. Status for me is less about how people see me and more the freedom to pursuit of Truth unapologetic from anyone
  5. You are just in the beginning, and yes leo is definitely good for beginners or inspire to path. Good luck best
  6. That mean is claimer is never there
  7. Just forget everything about hydrogen, helium, etc., and try to imagine telling a pre-modern person what a star really is. That if you were to be able to fly and travel towards that little dot in the sky, that if you were to come close to it, it would vaporise you. How alien and God-like a star is, that it's so far removed from our physical existence as meat sacks, that if you were to actually travel to it, you would end your existence as a human being. The absolute sheer power and divine posture, world-shattering capability, of a star. And how mindblowing that is, that this is the reality as far as we can glean it from our current understanding of the universe.

    Not much to do any more, but many small problems which bug me for which I havent found a solution for yet.

  9. Finished the LP course

    Jannes replied to Jannes's topic in Self-Actualization Journals

    About 20,25 pages. The spectrum is 15-20 so I have to slim down just a little.
  10. I'm still confused
  11. @Majed Wish you the best brother! Embrace everything and flow with it
  12. I was calling a girl for 2 hours, the first hour or so I was talking allot, teasing her, doing all kinds of stluff, but then I remembered something about not talking or only repeat the last word with a question mark. I felt that last hour went much better then that first hour, because she naturally started to talk and fill up the space, asking me questions and have an approval seeking tonality. So I wonder how much to talk and how much you guys talk? Sometimes I still did say stuff, but like 80% she was talking, I was talking for like 20% and just being okay with silence.
  13. The further you go, the less people you'll find to resonate with. As you already said it yourself Although, there are still people far ahead you should listen to, till you become better than them, the further you go the more horizon there is, so it's an infinite game.

  14. 2 months no porn

    @LordFall yes I felt without porn the whole sex became more enjoyable instead of only the climax or something, because it was based on connecting
  15. I’m actually done. You have shown an inability to engage in conversation without attacking people.
  16. Lol what does that mean. Seriously this forum needs an upgrade.
  17. @LordFall There you go. You just did it again. I challenged your definition of value, and instead of defending it, you diagnosed me with a “mental block,” invented a story about the marketplace invalidating me, told me to drop my ego, asked what I’m good at, and finished with your résumé. None of that establishes your claim. Forget me for a moment. Is there anything in your life you consider worth protecting even if nobody pays for it, praises it, envies it, follows it, or sleeps with you for it? A relationship, a private truth, a promise, a memory, a piece of yourself that belongs to you rather than an audience? I’m genuinely asking, because whenever another kind of value is raised, you either translate it into market outcomes or demote it to mere personal preference. Your mother example exposes the problem perfectly. You say a mother can value her child even if he offers no “value to the world.” But why does the marketplace get to represent the world while the mother and child somehow do not? The world contains both of them. You simply assumed that privately expressed human value does not count as value to the world, which is the exact conclusion you were supposed to defend. So do you actually have anything like that? If you do, explain why its value disappears the moment the market cannot measure it. If you don’t, then you haven’t discovered a universal theory of value. You have outsourced your judgment of what matters to other people’s measurable reactions. And asking what I’m good at still has no bearing on whether your definition is true. It is the same status maneuver again: place the critic beneath your metric, then use his supposed position within that metric to discredit the criticism. You still aren’t answering my point. You’re demonstrating it.

  19. @Monster Energy I don't exist, you don't see me bashing out like some people. Dog stop barking.
  20. They are currently solving humanly impossible physics and maths problems. And this is only the beginning.

  21. 2 months no porn

    LordFall replied to WonderSeeker's topic in Dating, Sexuality, Relationships, Family

    One way I've found porn damages sex is that it erodes the ability to tolerate high levels of arousal without rushing toward an immediate conclusion. I once had an orgasm with my ex-girlfriend that lasted for around 30 seconds and it was the most insane physical pleasure I've experienced but it only happened once. We tried to do a couple meditation around that time so perhaps it had something to do with it. I think tantric sexual practices have a lot of potential that most people, even amongst sexually active couples, never experience. It’s definitely something I plan to explore much deeper in the coming years.
  22. Please, keep it civil
  23. Attachment to God is upgraded name of the ego.
  24. It's pretty easy to program AI to never harm anyone.
  25. Whatever helps you sleep at night buddy
  26. No, you clearly have a mental block and are refusing to internalize the point. I said already that what other people value is their right as a free willed being. Value is mainly an economic term and is quantifiable. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Value_(economics) Your mom values you (hopefully) whether or not you offer any value to the world. The marketplace rewards you with money if you solve problems for customers. The dating market rewards you with hookups and quality partners wanting to be in your life if you are a valuable human being to be around. You also have not made a clear point as to what you value that the marketplace doesn't recognize nor made a convincing argument as to why others should also value that thing. We call this marketing. You might very well be right but right now you are arguing based on vague generalizations that I can only suppose come from your own feelings of being invalidated by the marketplace. As I've suggested, I think it'll be a worthwhile experience for you to drop the ego and simply just become skilled in a field that others generally value. What are you good at and what do you enjoy doing? I create communities and host creative events because it combines my own introverted tendencies and systemizing abilities with the real needs of the performance arts community. Creating cool events is mostly an introverted endeavor, you have to sit down and figure out what groups of people enjoy and the logistics around planning an event around it. Me figuring that out required me spending many years as a regular pickup artist just trying to brute force cold approach, then getting involved in the nightlife industry and then combining my own unique strengths with the needs of the marketplace to create a unique product that people value.
