Post #11: Getting serious For the first 3 years of my journey I've been mostly quiet on this forum and shying away from conscious people in general, but this is no longer the case. As you may have noticed I've been posting a lot recently, that's because I've gotten serious about this work. I'm done fooling around. This is where the rubber meets the road. I try to limit myself to about 10 posts a day to ensure the quality of my posts, and to avoid spending all day on the forum. Watch me transform first myself.

I'm not calling the apple sour. I'm also not saying they can't be useful and that you shouldn't practice them, you absolutely should IMO. All I'm saying is they "shouldn't" be the goal in and of themselves. The goal is Liberation and they can indeed aid in that endeavor like you pointed out. -
There's probably all kind of hacks you could find, but the bottom line is that as long as you're ejaculating you're depleting your essence. Therefore the only way to perserve you essence is to abstain from ejaculation (semen retention) and instead rely on non-ejaculatory orgasms, which Johnathan also teaches. Easier said than done, I know. Alternatively you could practice periods semen retention with ejaculatory sex in between, which is what I've been practicing. PS: Semen retention doesn't mean no sex!

I'd agree, your posts are of very high quality. I also find myself asking why I do it, when I put a decent amount effort into my posts, and most of the time I don't even receive an answer, let alone thanks. But then I remind myself that at the end of the day I'm doing it for myself; The more I "teach", i.e. spend time at the top of the learning pyramid, the more my understanding of the subject in question increases. I suspect that this is also the prime motive for most teachers -
Check out Johnathan White @SexualKungFu on YouTube (if you haven't already). He talks about full-body, and probably also, multiple orgasms. There's also mystical dimensions to this, which is what I've been primarily interested in. The reason you feel drained (if you're ejaculating) is because you're depleting your vital essence (jing).

Egoic development and level of consciousness determines the level of corruption, not the level of strictness. Hippie culture is kind of loose with it, but they have high integrity.

Exactly what the word implies, to break the jail of your mind. Everything. Not just as in the motivational anything's-possible sense. Literally ANYTING is possible. "But that can't be". That's your jail. It's just that we've imagined ourselves to limited for so long that it seems impossible, but ironically and paradoxically impossibility itself is the only impossibility. -
From my blog post #3: "Here's a list of eerily peculiar and relatable emotions i didn't even know had a name: https://thoughtcatalog.com/brianna-wiest/2016/02/40-words-for-emotions-youve-felt-but-couldnt-explain/ [...]" One thing I've noticed recently is just how implicit some emotions/thoughts are. Some are very obvious and take the shape of intrapersonal communication, but some are so subtle that they aren't even expressed trough words, i.e. they're more formless. They're like little jolts of implicit understanding. I can then through conscious effort explicate these emotions, but the process is tedious, crude at first and they're never actually fully explicated.

Post #10: Do you mind? Reality is Mind, but it doesn't mind, do you?

Thanks for nothing -
Survival, i.e. desire for a specific outcome (outcome dependence). If you're only happy under (very) specific conditions, you can't by definition be happy all the time (under all conditions).

They're are cool and everything, but they can be a distraction. What's the point of having magical powers if you're still in chains? Theurgy (high magic) "should" be your bread and butter. Thaumaturgy (low magic) "should" be the icing on the cake; a bonus. -
Inception replied to LoneWonderer's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Obviously I haven't, otherwise i couldn't be communicating with you. I'm not disagreeing with the fact that death is conceptual. All I'm saying is that ego takes illusion for reality, which means that from the illusory egoic perspective, death, just like suffering, is as real as it gets. -
Inception replied to r0ckyreed's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
I'd say i know two things for certain: That Consciousness exists, or more accurately Consciousness equals Existence. It's self-evident. It's not something i have to think about. Trying to prove it would be absurd, prove it to who? That i don't really know anything else, everything else i claim to know is really belief. -

I'd guess it depends on how ready the person is to let go, although everyone willingly undergoing euthanasia is ready to let go to some degree. For the normie the ego would probably fight tooth and nail to resist it's own demise until it no longer can, which would probably feel like a huge burden have been lifted off One's shoulders. I'd guess the whole experience would be very lucid. I guess losing Your ego is not something that can go unnoticed, since the difference between you and no-you is night and day. I.e. it would probably be an intense internal battle. Like the whole spiritual path which can take a lifetime condensed into a couple of minutes. Although then it would be weird that they don't show external signs of this, maybe because their body is somehow paralyzed? Not from the human perspective. -
Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), spiral dynamics (SD), enneagram and attachment styles to name a few. If you wanna get mystical with it there's stuff like the classical zodiac and Human Design.

You're struggling, but that's not a problem. It's a struggle. It's the hardest thing to do, but then again it's also the only thing to do. That's literally why we're here anyways. The point of our existence and the meaning of life. Ta-da! It's not about having pity, but compassion. Sure the world may be cruel and people will judge you, but that doesn't make love irrelevant, precisely the opposite; it makes it crucial. Sure loving yourself does include acknowledging your limits (what we might call weaknesses), but so what? We're all limited. Sure you can get hurt despite how you feel about yourself, so why not love yourself? It won't make it worse. You're doing good, keep going.

Sure, it's called omnism: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omnism. Not only is it good and ok, it's also true. It's a holistic worldview that incorporates and is able to make sense of all religions as individual expressions of Truth, and therefore is at peace with itself and others. -
Post #9: Deconstruction At this rate I'll deconstruct the entire universe before i get a girlfriend.

The point of this work is not to change the world, but to change yourself, which might change the world, but the whole point is that i wouldn't matter.

True, ultimately it's all Perfect...

Your heart may be closed for fear of being hurt, which could be due to the fact that you've been hurt in the past. Also, you may have a fearful avoidant attachment style. In which case you "should" open your heart, easier said than done though. Here's some things to try: Open your heart chakra (Anahata). You might have a lot of energy stuck there. Find someone to be vulnerable to and open yourself up to. Deal with trauma e.g. with a therapist. Find something you find beautiful and contemplate that feeling.
-
The same way I'd deal with any other suffering; becoming more conscious. Also, I'd use it as motivation to go do the things I want so I'll have less regrets about the past in the future.

Blog post #8: Reality is wild You'll never tame Reality. It will never submit to your silly ideas of how it should behave. Again and again it will break down you assumptions. Truth won't accommodate your fantasies, rather you most accommodate it, however outlandish it may seem. Notice how people say: "But that doesn't make sense!", as though that's the primary concern. It doesn't matter what you think! If it's true then it's true!!! That's the only think that matters, not whether or not it makes sense. The problem is that you have a bias towards sense, which limits the amount of truth you can handle. Instead you "should" be biased towards Truth, which would limit how much sense you'd make. Sense "shouldn't" be the limiting factor, Truth should, which isn't limited at all; The unlimited limiting factor. What is sense anyways? Does sense even make sense? “To demand ‘sense’ is the hallmark of nonsense.” - Ayn Rand "The Universe is under no obligation to make sense to you." - Neil deGrasse Tyson
