Yeah, the most intermediate helpful was doing something like yoga namaskar, sambhavi mahamudra and naddi shuddi daily, since it takes about 20-30 minutes to complete. That gives good lubrication. There are other things I can share privately. The problem is that different things will help at different times. Burnout happens due to lack of bliss and sense of overall health it think. If you manage to nail that, then I think you can change any other area of your life more or less sensibly.

It doesn't matter. This my last lifetime.

Yes, people will have AI chat bots for their entertainment, planning and self-reflection device.

I think you will not get as low as Sadhguru numbers. You really need a lot of things cleaned up in your lifestyle to do that.

If you can't or don't want to put the effort into getting laid, spiritual practice has helped me to the point that I think wether having sex is even worth it. With spiritual practice I mean some form of yoga, tantra, dharana, dhyana paired with vegetarian lifestyle. Dude I quit jerking off like 6 months ago and some aspects of my life really have improved. I care MUCH less about my social value and seeking validation. I will of course sometimes wander in that, however it's not affecting me as much.

Yes, you are right. Unlike the gear youtubers and top musicians trying to sell you Abasi guitar, Horizon Devices distortion and GGD drum vst and bunch of other crap. It's their business that they convince you to buy from them. That's how they do music while you buy their gear and not manage to do music.

Peer pressure is everywhere. Everywhere. To the point it can kill you (and me) if you are in a wrong place and time. Peer pressure and resisting it makes me question what is real freedom. It's scary.

We are in a time where your mental health is very very valuable to you and it will be more with the AI. Besides, you are in a sea of people who are not mentally well and can't or won't guide you because they are not competent enough or "it's not their problem", but every unwell person on this earth really is your and everyone else's problem because it will affect your well-being. And especially when you are becoming a parent, you should have some serious self-reflection under your belt otherwise if you can't cope, do you trust that your children will or the significant other will cope? I feel i am not even qualified yet for that. I don't want to do all of that damage (and I mean that not all was not necessary, but most mental turmoil) I received growing up to another human being. My mother once replied me "somehow you will manage to take care of your children". I understand what this somehow means, and I can't imagine how bad it was for other people.

Hey man, wishing the strength! I am on vacation and I have a lot I would like to do musically. The only problem really what I had was computer games. I have spent a lot of time in there. Even now sometimes I can spent 12 hours without eating to script a warcraft III custom map, but somehow I have to teak breaks or cheese doing music and I only somehow do it while being frustrated. And all of the work I have done in the past 3 years is to get in place to do music. I can't forget that. Music is what I want to do, otherwise I am just always coping after a working day. And about judgemental people. I have a few neighbohrs who judge me for not having what they have or not doing anything. I don't want to have children for example. Somehow their brain just freezes and they can't self reflect, but end up projecting to others. Well, at least I have ability to self-reflect and you have too! It maybe not seem like it but it's all you need to live a wonderful life. You have ability for self-alignment. Otherwise you will be like those judgemental people where it's their routine and entertainment to care and expose whatever gossip to you like a hyena. They have the brain rot not you. You have the ability to enjoy life without anything acctually. Meanwhile they have all these things they supposedly wanted (somebody else told that they should have it) and yet they are sitting and thinking about me who doesn't have it. Strange, isn't it, what does freedom mean then. The most popular insult they will give is that you are idiot/stupid. And my response is why is it bad to be an idiot or stupid? It's not illegal and it's not even. Ad, because you are self-honest. They are just high on ideology which makes them guilty in the entirety of their life. Sorry for my pep talk. Good luck!

Yeah, it was my tranquilizer for a long time to cope with what was happening at the time. BUT! It promotes pretty intense levels of creativity and problem solving, especially in creating games with good mechanics, good stories and way of telling them. There are still good games versus bad games. The problem is they are a coping mechanism. But so is making kids, running a business or whatever the most "purposeful" thing you can think of in the realm of doing and having. It's just that some delusions seem to be better than others or just more popular and accepted in society? Huh...

Up to you, it's just pros and cons at the end of the day. I assume You can embrace and master either, but it requires different approaches and skills.

I would vote for Biden because of the principles of his campaign. Trump just points fingers at somebody else, makes impossible claims and blatantly lies. -
From some my neighbors I hear gossip and passive aggressive abuse which is literally hate. I am not talking about anything less, that I don't care about. I live in quite conservative country. If you don't strive for what they strive like family etc. you get a lot of "what are you doing" and "why are you doing nothing" that "you are just not grown up", tell me, just curious, is that not hate?
-
Yeah, I plan to do that. Completely on my own. Will see how it goes. I get hate for that though for some reason.

When you do sadhana, you are increasing the speed at which you digest your karma. Life starts happening quicker and the things you would normally change after 10 years you will change in one. The Negative is that you will go trough a lot a lust and it's acctually hard to pinpoint how to deal with it. There are techniques for sure, one example is to keep doing sadhana which stimulates your vishuddi, anja or sahasrara chakra. Then your lust doesn't just build up and get trapped and find expression in the ways you have known before but to experience distance between you and the body so that you are energetic, yet lighter and in restful awareness so that you don't feel you have to go into some lust to feel some moments of bliss. In reality this rarely goes perfectly, so some abstinence and struggle is needed as our society is largely built on exploiting your needs and pleasures. -

No. Leo has modeled and implemented principles in his life that allow him to see the truth at the level he does. -

Let's acctually think about it: The idea of the ownership of the other Have you heard conservative people using this as an insult that they can and will fuck your wife or that other dudes probably fuck your wife or whatever. I think they associate that being one of the worst things happening to them because of their masculine identity that it's an insult to them if they fail in this area. Emotions and Expectations Sex creates emotional connection and your mind starts to identify and associate with other people much more intensely. We are unable to manage (due to lack of self discovery) our emotions to a large extent and this could be the catalyst to be even more fantasy, pleasure driven life where of course you will make blunders. Lack of understanding about human sexuality due to repression and exploitation of the human sexuality People don't talk about it. Isn't it interesting? Maybe some progressives do, but how much backlash they are getting is also very interesting. Same as being gay, people will endlessly criticize those people and will never accept them, but the reason is literally invisible! How about that, hahaha. Addiction Well, trying to solve life's existential problems trough the same action. It has not worked and will never work. One is easier I think managing one relationship is much more inclusive and if you communicate well, you will probably be sexually satisfied. To manage multiple people is ALWAYS harder because they have to cross communicate and naturally their own negativities and assumptions will be a part of that, which will needs constant clarification. Function of sex Is to do it once to create children, just keep that in mind whoever you do it with, if at all. You are doing it for sport or entertainment, that is something else... nothing wrong with it, or is it? Up to you to discover... Now rubbing it off with someone else's wife is nothing that wrong technically, but it's pretty unwise to do since you will not be able to deal with the emotional drawbacks and the people around you definitely won't be able to process it. I think I takes intelligence to be a successfully cuck ironically. If you can manage that I think it's amazing, but in reality it never really happens. Whatever you do, do your sadhana first.

Somewhere around 6 months on no-relapse. Bootsts your meditation gains. Gives confidence to change your life. Feel less dependant on women and relationships. Planning on never doing it again.
-
The solution is 20 years of some form of kriya yoga, dhyana or tantra based meditation practice, practiced regularly.

Dangerous assumption as we are yet to know our potential while being heavily repressed ideologically and financially. Though you are more likely to fail, yes.

Go spend some time outdoors everyday. Don't jerk off. Do something creative that you enjoy doing. Meditate to the extent you are able to. Do some physical activities. Connect to some people that you can talk with from time to time. Spend time accepting that they can't accept you for who you are. Don't be to overly suspicious of them also. There is a possibility that they are reflecting also and what they think might not be what you think they think.
