@Never_give_up There are tradeoffs in personality types. Sages and mystics tend to be ascetic and virgins. Just because sex isn't their focus. Their focus is consciousness and spirituality. On the other hand, sex addicts tend to be Godless, immoral, selfish and materialistic. I think religion gives a good balance for the ordinary man when it comes to sex. Which is to do it in the bound of marriage with a person you're committed to. Traditional marriage works for most people. I don't know about your situation, but I would say if you want sex with someone, you should be cultivating friendships with people and then naturally someone you appreciate will be interested in having sex with you. If you're like me however, friendships isn't your thing, for you understand that the path to wisdom is inwards, and that ultimately friendship is a waste. You could die a virgin and be happy. Pornography is also a good artform, that could help you on a daily basis satisfy your urges. The problem with sex is the focus and effort it takes to get it, for example if you're doing pick up, being social, or cultivating friendships, it takes way too much effort. If you aren't that interested in sex, it isn't worth it, in my opinion. Ultimately, it's flexible and up to you to decide which path you want to go down. Don't treat it like an obligation, whether to be a virgin, or to have sex. For wisdom lies in context awareness.

@Sugarcoat What you wrote is immaturity, it doesn't see clearly what's going on. Even the idea that others have their own bubbles is inside your mind, and need to be looked at for what it is. Once that is done, a recontextualization will happen, where you realize they are fictional characters within a meaningless pointless dream. That's it. That's reality. When i say a dream i literraly mean it. It's not a metaphor or to be cute. When you dream at night and then you wake up, boom others are gone, because you were dreaming them up in the first place. There's only you that's still there, their bubbles never existed, even though in your dream you believed they had bubbles. That's what spiritual awakening is like: a recontextualization of what's going on, as a pointless meaningless dream, where others do not exist outside your own mind.

@Sugarcoat Because i literally mean it's a dream. The people in your dreams are fictional characters, they do not exist on their own outside your dream. You are dreaming them up.

@Ziran No what you become directly conscious of is that that is an assumption.

@Ziran No because you're assuming others helped, when the reality is that it is a shift in dreams, and you can become directly conscious of that.

@Ziran you never lacked consciousness. You just shifted in dreams. Others telling you you lacked consciousness is part of the new dream, don't you see ?

@Ziran what really happens is a shift in dreams. The dream as you know it ceases then it rebegin from another perspective, you could call it a new dream. You're imagining or dreaming others in both dreams.

@Ziran Think of it like this: the people who are gonna help you, are fictional characters just like in a video game. They don't have subjective experiences or real inner lives or bubbles of their own.

@Sugarcoat Life literally feels like a dream, i'm not kidding. It's like it changed my entire life. Although some existential depression comes with it for i feel a bit disillusioned from the illusion of other. It take an enormous deal of maturity and wisdom to live experiencing life as a dream, and knowing you're the only one in existence. Life feels pointless and meaningless, i think i finally reached the unitive stage of ego development.

They made everyone succeed without official exams due to the war. Fuck it, i finally finished high school. The reason it took me so long is because i had severe ocd and bipolar disorder type 1. But jesus christ, i finally got it, finally finished the high school diploma, Jesus Christ. Finally some good luck in my life

@Sugarcoat I do it for entertainment. I know you guys are fictional characters within the dream.

At the root of the culture war in the west is : we see the world through a story. The left says that hence wants to say that gender or sex isn't biological but a story (a social construct) hence we can rewrite the story, or rather retell the story, and hence transgenderism. The right also believes we see the world through a story. Howveer the right understand that the story of western civilization (christianity) is the bedrock of civilization and rewriting it willy nilly will cause the collapse of western civilization. Hence they see transgenderism for example as decadent.

@Leo Gura what do you think?

@enchanted The issue is that they aren't people of earth, they're God hallucinating being someone on earth.

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.
