A fool thinks wisdom is foolishness and foolishness wisdom.
Stop caring about the opinions of fools.

Part of your mistake is not trying to set up the date immediately to your house.
If you're gonna do sushi, make the sushi yourself at your place. This is would be wisest.
Think like a closer.

@Mu_ You are God. The bottom line is that your consciousness is absolute. So what you see is what you are creating.
All sense of "other" must collapse.

You gotta learn to talk endlessly. It's called "gaming a wall". Imagine that you are gaming a brick wall. Eventually she should open up. If not, something is fucked up with this girl and you shouldn't want her. Most girls know how to be effortlessly social.
A hot girl who doesn't know how to be social? This smells fishy.
Don't work too hard to get a girl talking. Move on to better girls.

Cessation is just a figment within God's Mind.
Cessation is not God-realization and it is part of the dream. "Liberation" is also just a figment within God's Mind. None of this is God-realization.
Stop listening to fools like Frank Yang. He has no idea what God is. Nor does any Buddhist. No Buddhist teacher is God-realized.
Nobody on this forum is fully God-realized.
This will all be obvious to you when you finally realize you are God.
There exists a level of consciousness so radical that no nondual teacher you know has reached it. All of these teachers are part of the dream you have spun to keep yourself asleep.

No, I would take them together.
But I don't particularly recommend it.
Sober game is where you build the most skillz.

The right combination of neurotransmitters, brain health, and neuronal interconnectedness.
Perhaps also the right kind of brainwave patterns -- which is what meditation manipulates most directly.
Of course all these things are imaginary. But just because they are imaginary does not mean you can ignore them, just like you cannot ignore a brick wall or a bullet to the head.

Not unless you are extremely serious and well-grounded.
And even then, you will start to lose your mind by the end of it.
It is dangerous.
You don't really need a month of 5-MeO to realize the things I'm saying.
I'm just talking about what's possible at the extremes here.
Personally I think that 99.99% of humans will never realize God without the proper brain chemistry.
Which is explains why 99.99% of humans are so clueless and spiritually lost.
And it also explains why even serious meditators do not have a good understanding of God or Love.
You don't need psychedelics per se. But you do need a certain brain chemistry. All serious spiritual practices alter brain chemistry. Genetics also dictates brain chemistry. It's completely obvious to me that the most spiritual people have exceptional and abnormal brain chemistry.
Spirituality is 99% brain chemistry. The rest is games humans invented to make themselves feel like they have some control.
The only reason you're not fully awake right now is because your have the wrong brain chemistry. It's that stark and simple. How you go about changing your brain chemistry is up to you. There are many ways.

I got a lap-dance from a stripper with an Om tattoo on her chest.
She was into DMT.
It was a bonding experience.

How the fuck do you know what's in that liver?
Have you ever done a liver cleanse and seen the shit that comes out of your own liver?
I can show you photos of sludge I detoxed from my liver. Entire cups full.

What's comical is thinking that God doesn't have Absolute Will.
Well, he's wrong about that of course. God is Infinite Will.
Reality is your Will, silly.
This Will I am talking about has nothing to do with ego. And since God's Will is Absolute, it cannot be changed. God's Will is Love. You cannot ever change that, nor would you ever want to. You might then say that if it's Absolute, it isn't really Will. Except it is absolutely Will.
No games or story at all. I'm simply telling you what you are.
It's not impossible at all. You can realize that reality is your will by taking some 5-MeO.
I gave you a precise scientific method for validation of my claims. You are just too lazy and scared to do it.
Your desire to change God's Will with your egoic will -- that's the ego game you are playing here.
In your egotism you have denied God omnipotence -- which is the height of absurdity.
- - - - -
Reality is Your Will.
When your realize this, you will become God-realized, and until such time you are not truly Awake.
You don't comprehend the immensity your own power.

Practically speaking, most of your lays will simply come from collecting a lot of numbers and working them like a machine.
You should aim for 5-10 numbers per night.

It's a tradeoff. Depends on your priorities.

Redpill is toxic as fuck.

We don't have a good system for training men how to be men.
Since there is no good system, toxic systems are developed like redpill, blackpill, pickup, RSD, etc.

The longer you wait the harder it will get to learn.

Not much beyond running solid game in-person.
You are not going to build investment or attraction via text or online. Text is only for setting up date logistics.
You need solid in-person game. No way around this. And even then you will only close 1 in 10 phone numbers at best.
The solution is a high volume of new leads. You cannot squeeze blood from a stone.

If you want the craziest sex imaginable, have sex on 5-MeO-MALT or 5-MeO-MIPT.

I was the serious type who didn't put with human bullshit and games.
I told you, her friends cockblocked her.
Doesn't matter how hot you are or how good your game is when friends are committed to cockblocking.
A girl is not going to go fuck a guy against all her friends. This makes her the town slut.
If cockblocks didn't exist the human population would be 20 billion right now.

Sure
No! The Truth is that you actually are everything, including the body-mind-psyche. Technically speaking the problem isn't one of identification, it's a problem of partial identification. The problem is you identify with that body/mind but not Leo's body/mind and not a kangaroo's body/mind. The problem is you're cherrypicking.
Your true identity INFINITY, which means you are every body/mind/object that is held in consciousness.
Think of a TV. The TV is every image it depicts. The problem occurs when the TV starts to identify with only certain characters on the screen, while not others.
It is actually not correct to say that the TV is none of the characters because it literally is all the characters.
No! You will see that every partial identity is you! Like how the TV can see that every character is the TV.
Actually it's more like the opposite. The ego-mind becomes a child of God.
There is zero distance between God and its children. God IS its children.
There cannot be any distance between God and its creation. GOD IS CREATION!
CREATION = GOD
This is precisely the problem and trap of Buddhism. It's like elevating the dark half of the yin-yang over the meta-Unity of the entire yin-yang.
The goal is not a negative one but a positive one: total identification.
Your identity is INFINITY.
Unity is a meta feature that includes both white and black. It's not just white, and it's certainly not just black. But notice that this meta-Unity is an identity, not a disidentity.
Reality is an Absolute Positive. It is not a neutral mid-point between positive and negative. This is a common trap.
God is Absolute Goodness. Negativity never existed!
God is Absolute Unity. God is ONENESS.
ONE!
ONE cannot have disidentity as that creates two. So by trying to disidentify you actually create division and evil!
There is no we. There is only you.
Because if you weren't playing this trick, how could anything exist? Things only exists when God imagines them.
The problem is that you take the existence of things for granted. You assume things can just exist. Well, consider the possibility that nothing can exist unless you imagine it. But if you are conscious that you imagined it, then you cannot relate to it as "real". It's just imaginary. So literally the only way God can create "reality" is by imagining that it is not imagining reality.
Ta-daaaa!
Everything here boils down the problem of How could reality be created at all? By all rights nothing should exist. To make something appear requires a feat of trickery of the highest genius. Reality is literally a magic trick you're playing on yourself. Without this trick there would be nothing. But if there exists nothing, nothing prevents the trick from being played on nobody

I don't handle stimulation well. But I trained to expand my comfort zone.
Few people are as introverted as me.
Most girls I talk to don't believe I am an introvert. That's the training and building state.
Extroversion is actually a mode you can learn to turn on within yourself.
You are more flexible than you give yourself credit for. Going out a lot also desensitizes you, making you harder. Like tempered steel. Not going out makes you soft.

Sounds nice, but this is orthogonal to consciousness.
Just because you can train yourself to endure pain does not mean you are sufficiently consciousness to comprehend the nature of reality.
Don't confuse cool spiritual tricks for consciousness. There is no substitute for pure consciousness. There is also no test you can pass to prove you are conscious. I don't care how long you can sit still or if you can stick a hot poker up your ass without blinking. That doesn't mean you are conscious of God. Be careful assuming such tests prove anything.
He could not tell you what God is if you asked him.
You can work like a rented mule for 40 years and still never realize God because your neurochemistry sucks.
If you want to do the fucking work, take some DMT.
My method is very simple and scientific.
I have not seen any more direct or scientific method than mine.
The only problem is people don't want to do it. For good reason.
It's obvious he's doesn't understand what reality is.
What happened was I became omniscient and saw through all the spiritual bullshit that is taught. And I care not at all what you think of that.
With that said, I don't have a problem with the methods Shinzen teaches. They are useful and I use them. But they are not God-realization, that's all I'm saying.
You can use his methods in addition to mine. The noting method is very powerful. But DMT is 1000x more powerful.

Of course there is.
There is such higher consciousness that your current consciousness is not even capable of imagining it.
Yes it is. Just as orgasm is an attainment. There are those who have had orgasm and those who have not. And it's obvious when a teacher has never had an orgasm. They don't even know what God is. Because they have never awoken. They are playing in some Buddhist dream while still asleep.
Shinzen is not God-realized.
There is nothing higher than realizing you are God. Everything else is lower. All Buddhist states and attainments are lower. All of Buddhism is imaginary, including the Buddha and all states like cessation. You imagined all that shit to keep yourself from realizing you are God.
God-realization is not knowledge.

It's a cool state, but realizing you are God is way cooler.
To realize you are God means you are perfectly conscious of how you create all of reality in real-time, and there exists no one but yourself.
You become completely omniscient and your Will becomes reality manifest. Physical reality is your Will. Do you realize that? No. You are not conscious of this yet.
Are you conscious that every other being is your imagination? I doubt it.
You must become so conscious that nothing exists outside your consciousness. Absolute Consciousness. Total transparency into the structure and nature of reality. You must become so conscious that you gain telepathic connection with every conscious being you imagined, recognizing their minds as held within your One Mind.

Maybe it's possible for some genetic freaks. But not normal people, and not even serious Buddhist teachers like Shinzen and others I have talked to.
For example, Daniel Ingram does not know what God is. Why not? Are you gonna out-meditate Daniel Ingram or Shinzen? Hahaha
God-realization requires a very specific hyper-interconmected state of consciousness which I have not seen meditation producing much. Meditation is not really designed for that. It is designed to still the mind, which is not enough to realize God. God-realization requires an infinite comprehension of reality, not merely a stillness. This level of comprehension is basically impossible for a human mind to acheive without some special chemistry.
Funny enough, the problem is chemical. The bottom line is your neurotransmitters suck. Insufficient neuronal interconnections.
