Someone here

You guys are goofing around a lot ..even Leo as well . Get serious about my question please . The quality of this forum has dropped significantly since the day I joined.

@Emotionalmosquito what exactly, precisely, actually etc..stopping you from having sex in this life instead of offloading it to the afterlife? You can literally just get a job ..make some cash..travel around the globe..go to a house of prostitution and fuck bitches. Dude .use common sense .

@Javfly33 you're not alone . There ain't nobody nowhere that really knows anything about anything. We're all full of shit .

@Princess Arabia I deleted the philosophy videos because they are super cringe . But this is a video of me doing playback singing 🎶

In general..share the top limiting beliefs that prevent you from "getting what you want from Life ". By "limiting beliefs" I mean excuses of course...because I gotta tell ya the truth ..I've been maturing exponentially in the last year ..understanding how life really works in "the real world " and how shit gets done . Life is difficult no matter how ya slice it . Nobody is ever satisfied by his job ..from the workers in factories to the CEOs in their air conditioned office . Everyday we have to struggle to even make ends meet . But some of us here (and probably that's the reason why we are here) want to rise above mediocrity and Self-Actualize ...we want the best job..the best life purpose..the right values in life ..the best way to spend our free time ..girlfriends or boyfriends ..health and well being and ultimately awakening..etc .. So as I said ..these thing are NEVER easy once you start getting serious about them .at first you will be shocked because you will think :"fuck! This is so impossible to achieve..it's never gonna work ..I'm never gonna improve.. etc ". So..I want you guys (if possible) to share with me a brief quick summary of your journey in this work up to now and what exactly are the limiting beliefs/excuses/Obstacles that hold you back the most and how do you plan to deal with them . Thanks.

@Rishabh R 🤣

I resonate with this . Thanks Ivan .the problem is that my career isn't aligned with my life purpose. I want to become a philosophy student but I'm a business and marketing student. I tired to start a YT channel and become as successful and famous as Leo but no views on my videos and I'm just a nobody that no one wants to listen to . That's what sources my continous philosophical masturbation on this forum. I use it as an outlet for my passion aboout philosophical questions .

Thanks for sharing . Actually I share a similar thingy..I was bullied in school a lot ..and I was a loser in studying heady nerdy subjects like math and physics and always get low grades . This is still wounding me till this day . I believe that I'm simply nobody . I'm not worthy of the best most awesome and abundant life possible. So ...would you like to discuss how to overcome and unbrainwash ourselves from this ? Well I would like to have it the easy way .snap a finger and get all the money and the bitches...but haven't you realized yet that life is simply not easy ?

it is fair to say that God must love people like hitler..mass shooters..terrorists, racists etc..that's what spiritualists call unconditional love . So I don't get it. To me its just a word game . To mix the positive emotion we experience as humans which is called "love " and to stretch it out to include everything. If god is all good and loving ..he must be all evil and hateful.

@Pox it exists .but in hentai and anime porn . Quite disgusting.

@StarStruck I'm also halfway agree with you and halfway disagree. Porn has pros and cons .and which one weighs more ? Depends on the person. So I have to admit in the end that its relative. Not nice to assume this without evidence.

@Princess Arabia look my dear..I don't want a lecture from you ..dont overblow yourself that much .. honestly I could care less about this whole topic ..to me I have a wink or two every once in a while to some porn and then get cleaned up and go about my day . But ... Go take a look at Nofap forums and how its filled with hundreds and thousands of young guys unable to get it up with a real girl because they have rewired their brain to be responsive to porn rather than real sex . Porn is a serious despic to humanity. If you don't agree then go grab em water and straight to bed !

It's simple..we all know that porn is bad but it feels good . Feels good is understood. Why "bad "? Because its SUPER addictive. It can easily get you hooked and makes you unable to leave your fucking dick alone . The shit is literally Endless(..which in itself is one of the most challenging existential questions that I'm thinking of lol.

The people who ramble the most about how porn is harmful and are obsessed with this topic are usually the ones who are addicted to it . Get over it already. We are in 21st century. Adults industry is normal and we are entering the AI era with VR and AI porn ..so it's only gonna get worse ..so brace yourself .

Great answer. That's my Leo 😂. Fantastic episode by the way . Also you seem to smile more and you seem happy and in a good mood . Grateful for you brother . I have only one point .. what you are saying is likr if I'm playing chess I must take risks because I can't be certain of all the possible movements of my opponent..so is life like that? I'm rather shocked and disappointed..that life is not certain makes me uncomfortable. Another question is How much evidence does it take for you to say that you know something? (e.g. "I know the sky is blue" or "I know the sky is not blue.") ..is direct experience always accurate? I mean we can be deceived by a mirage in the desert .that's one example .

Great Post thanks . So your advice basically boils down to choosing Stoicism instead of hedonism?

No need to apologise. Im not at a point in my life that im capable of surrendering all my desires. I'm still young and fit .I Have a million and one dreams to achieve. Crawling up in a cave isn't jiving with me at this point . 😂 yes how do you know ? Yesterday I watched porn 12 hours . Huge trap . Needs work ngl .but I'm a horny idiot . My dick has taken control over my brain . Not understanding this part .

@James123 yes I'm attached to these things (just not "drugs "). What is the best way towards maturity..detachment..and unconditional love ? I assume you agree with me on the not knowing part .

False . Whether you eat salad or McDonald's for dinner requires thought . Which assumes that there is someone here thinking and making decisions. My problem goes much deeper than this..if we assume that only this moment exist..how can I trust in long-term benefits of working hard on improving myself? Also I want to clarify what I mean by not knowing..I obviously know how to eat ..Wear..move ..work etc ....bur I don't know what existence is .I don't know why I'm human being on earth. I just am here . This stuff just exists. For apparently no reason.

Great ! When will the videos be released though?

He is good but I think he is a bit overrated. I have listened to him in the past ..but he provokes your skeptical mind and makes you think a lot ..opens your mind to new perspective without giving you direct answers . Also his pace is slow ..he speaks very slowly..I always have to speed up his videos to 1.5X to not get bored lol. Jim Newman is the shit and its very clear how influenced you are by him .but keep in mind that that is just one perspective to look at the world .there are other perspectives. So don’t fall into this trap of aimlessly mumblimg "there is no you ..no time ..no nothing lol". I do . And I'm familiar with his nonteaching. That's correct. There are hundreds of spiritual schools and methods to meditation etc ..but to Me it simply boils down to sitting down in a quiet place and remaining silent. You can't silence thoughts ..you can only watch them or disidentify with them . The more you try to force yourself to stop thinking and just be present and empty-headed the more you mind will run rampant. Its counterintuitive in that sense . How so ? Are you familiar with Maslow’s Pyramid ? It says you should get your material life together first before you can raise your own priorities to consciousness and enlightenment. So far all I'm doing on this forum is mentally masturbating lol. I want the "real deal ". A true mystical experience. Thanks 🙏

Let's start a journal. Lots of shit I'm into recently. Just wanted to organise them in strategic way . Cosmos instead of chaos.

Albert Camus said that there is only one philosophical question that should be asked ..and that is "should we kill ourselves or not ?" The guy was a nihilist (or existentialist)..and a pessimistic person. I don't share this view and disagree with him on that . But today I wanna discuss with you guys the most important philosophical question in my point of view ...and that is "why does pain exist ?". That's it. To be honest..I don't give a shit about Truth..I only care about my happiness and well being ..and so if I'm God and I created this world ..and if I wasn't a fucking idiot I would not create pain at all . Some people say there is end to suffering but not to pain . They argue that pain is inevitable..while suffering is optional . I call that BS and cop-out. We experience pain. And as Arthur Schopenhauer said "life is oscillating between boredom and pain ". Pleasure is so fleeting . The older you live you become more aware that the vast majority of life is ugly.. brute ..tough ..painful..etc. So..why pain when a woman give birth to a child ? Why do we have to experience "hunger attacks " 3 times at least every fucking day to stop the continuing pain of hunger ? Why we get injured? Why we experience tooth ache? Why hell is part of absolute infinity ? That's my question that i want to hear an answer to from enlightened folks here ..why isn't reality 100% pleasure? This god (which is me ) is so stooooopid to create pain when his all-powerful ass is capable of creating endless heaven.

What I seek is the end of seeking . Simple example : if you are hungry you seek food to end the seeking aka hunger . You get the idea. In our spiritual quest for enlightenment or liberation..if what we seek is the end of seeking ..how can you seek the end of seeking? .. Isn't that seeking to end seeking ..which is (again )seeking ?

@Princess Arabia hi . I just figured instead of posting a thread every other day on the forums and annoy people that i just express my thougts here . But they (my thoughts) are going to be different . I will avoid all philosophy and spiritual stuff . Just focusing on handling the basics of my life . By eliminating bad habits (like over-using this forum as mental masturbation as an example) and cultivating positive habits . And these two will include stuff like: Quitting the forum for few months Quitting smoking . Quitting jerking off (but not porn ). Fitness (I have some ugly belly fat and want to lift weight and get ripped . Law of attraction. Making new friends (especially a new girlfriend. Improving myself as a man. Meditation. If you have any advice please go ahead .you are a smart lady .
