  1. The most practical one is how to make the girl squirt. This is the 2nd most practical
  2. Beauty is relative => fundamentally false Stop clinging to false beliefs
  3. Scribd is a very good subscribption based service, you pay like 10$ bucks per month and get access to like 80% of books in the booklist, many of them have audiobooks
  4. I didn't believe too until I experienced orgasmic electrical activation throughout the whole spinal cord on vipassana retreat during strong determination sitting . It was blissful as fuck. I believe I was experiencing some kind of a kundalini awakening. Energy was just flowing everywhere. There is definetely something
  5. Yeah, keep going . It's okay to daydream a lot in the beginning of your meditation career, don't get depressed over it! Just refocus your attention on technique back again once you notice yourself daydreaming, I wish you all the best.
  6. I double that . Also the guide how to find quality Wi-Fi or other type of internet connection in any city would be cool
  7. Yeah, I agree, a quick guide would be super helpful. Stevens book is complicated as fuck. And Gamana's book in the contrary doesn't explain theory nearly enough
  8. Yeah, that is personally why I don't think about committing suicide seriously. You may kill yourself but then there is a possibility that you will simply just start over again with all the bullshit that comes with it. At least in this life we already figured something out and now we have the tools to do something. Who knows if you'll be able to find these tools in your next life.
  9. Title. Let's share the best methods&techniques you have for the benefit of all. As for me: I usually set goals\plans for each day\week in advance and also for long term - 1 month\quarter\year\10 years For long term goals I prefer to split everything by different facets of my life - Finance, Spirituality, Relationships, Fitness\Health, Life purpose, Self-mastery. I also have a special tab for my reading pursuits and for habits (Do you track them?). I usually write what things I want to accomplish in each area and make plans how I will do so. I also like to do random weekly challenges which is fun. For each day I tried to structure my day strictly but I was always failing miserably because some unpredictable shit was always coming up and ruining everything. So now I just try to set what I want to do in general. As for medium I used to write everything in physical notebook but then I moved to onenote\trello. Now I'm thinking about some excel cloud solution. If you have some good material on goal setting techniques besides Leo's videos - feel free to share. Especially if they talk about how to use software to do it more efficiently.

  11. HOW TO BE ATTRACTIVE TO WOMEN Women as well as men want everything in their partner, they want the full package. But one thing is to want something and another thing is what they can get. It's also useless to ask a woman what she wants in a man cause they usually don't even know it themselves and don't really look deep into science behind them. However, there are some fundamentals principles\assets that are known to attract women more than anything else, they are dealbreakers: 1) Confidense - if you don't have confidense as a man you're pretty much worthless to woman. A woman won't date a man who has lower confidense than her, this is just isn't gonna be a match. Being grounded 2) Emotional stimulation - women are emotional creatures, they want emotional stimulation. Humor, laughing, smiling is very important. Adopting playful attitude is key 3) Detachment - women want men to be detached from them (even though they will probably tell otherwise). Having strong sense of life purpose and direction in life. They are not attracted to woman being a center of life paradygm. They don't want "needy" guys. They will dump needy guys in a second. 4) Edginess\adventuress - they like guys to be adventurous. She wants a sense of newness. Guy needs to be interesting and a little bit dangerous. She wants something excited. She wants a man who is out there and does stuff in the world. She wants a man who challenges them. 5) Amazing sex - even though they don't admit it because of our culturing conditioning, women really love sex. Not so important, althought she would like it and it is what traditionally was considered as key elements: 1)Good looks 2)Financial security 3)Social status 4)Loyalty
  12. How I Do Research & Develop Big Picture Understanding Notes Part 1 Principles of research and developing a big picture understanding of reality: ⁃ Principle I: Anything is possible. ▪ The first position that every human being is in when they come into this life is that we don’t know what is true. We don’t know what is true! This means you also don’t know what’s possible to be true, and what’s possible to be false. You don’t know which principles you will use to assess what’s true and what’s false. That’s how deeply you don’t know. You cannot rely on the knowledge or information that other human beings have sort of mined for you, and supplied to you in books because how do you assess which books are correct? Which are not? The reality is, you don’t, and to admit that is very important. ⁃ Principle II: Every position, no matter what position or perspective you take on reality, has hidden assumptions behind it. ▪ In a sense, the assumptions define the position or they define the perspective. To even have a perspective requires hidden assumptions that are very hard to root out and become aware of, almost like axioms or premises which defines the paradigm or the perspective from which they look at the world, and that shapes everything, because that is the first step: making assumptions. And when you make incorrect assumptions, you’re reasoning stands on a rotten foundation. ⁃ Principle III: All perspectives are partial. ▪ No matter what perspective you adopt, on no matter what position, it will only be partial, a partial truth. This is why studying many different perspectives is important, as well as being impartial to the perspectives themselves. ⁃ Principle IV: A model is not reality. ▪ Thinking about reality is not reality. The map is not the territory. ⁃ Principle V: The same phenomena can be explained by different webs of beliefs. ▪ Your web beliefs, which is the entire collection of all the beliefs you have about everything that is true or false in the world, is like a representation of reality, and that it is under-constrained, which means that we have a few number of hardcore facts about reality, and you have a giant web of beliefs that you build, which is only loosely connected to the facts, which means that you can build different kinds of web of beliefs to explain exactly the same phenomena. Which explains why we have this diversity of perspectives and options and ideologies around the world. ⁃ Principle VI: Foundationalism is false. ▪ Foundationalism: Principle that you can take some theory you have about reality and that you can ground it all down into one fundamental truth that is indubitable. ⁃ Principle VII: Rationality is far too limited to use as your only tool to explore reality and to understand reality. ▪ Reality goes far beyond rationality. Rationality itself is a subset of this larger superset which is reality. A subset cannot encompass a superset. You have to be open to the Principle that maybe the universe can’t be rationalize in principle, and that your attempts to do so leaves a lot unexplained. ⁃ Principle VIII: Paradox is good. ▪ When you encounter paradox in your research, in your attempts to understand the world, that’s a good thing, and not something to run away from but to be embraced. You have to be open to the Principle that reality might be paradoxical at its core. Also, paradox might be the fallout that you get when you try to rationalize all of reality. ⁃ Principle IX: Direct experience is the truest thing we got. ▪ If you stick to that you’re going to avoid a lot of traps. If however you go with only different authority figures, that’s going to be very problematic. Or if you go with only your own reasoning abilities, that’s even potentially more dangerous, because your mind is a very tricky thing. Do not now discount expert authorities, and your own reason, and your own intuitions, because those are* important factors, but the truest* thing is direct experience. ⁃ Principle X: There’s a huge spectrum of possible direct experiences. ▪ Huge. Way larger than you ever imagined possible. What you think of as reality, and all the experiences you’ve had in your whole life, that is a tiny little sliver of all the vast possible and weird experiences that are possible to have in this world. Seeking out new experiences becomes hugely important if you accept the axiom that direct experience is one of the truest things you have in this inquiry. ⁃ Principle XI: The practical level still matters. ▪ It’s very easy to get lost in just arm chair philosophy and just theorizing stuff. But it’s important to keep in mind that the reason why we’re doing this is so that we can move forward and that we can be more effective in our lives, so that we can be more happier, so we can master our emotions, so we can be more successful in the things we want to accomplish. So if this entire investigation is not helping you to do that, then you’re losing yourself in theory and in academic disputes that are really not relevant to you living the kind of life that you want to live. So in this entire investigation, one easy way to see if you’re doing it right is that your life should be improving gradually over time, in the long run. Not in the short run, but in the long run your life should be improving, because in the short run you might discover some things in this investigation that kind of freak you out, destabilize you, so that’s okay. That’s the practical level. ⁃ Principle XII: The best position to take is no position at all. ▪ To not desire a position, to not have anything to defend, that’s really when you know you are doing good epistemology. ⁃ Principle XIII: Seek understanding rather than truth. ▪ Be interested in the looser project of developing understanding. Understanding is like you see how all the parts are moving and why they’re moving the way they’re moving. And you’re looking at the situation from a bird’s eye view, rather than being a crusader stuck on the ground level fighting for some specific position. ⁃ Principle XIV: Seek holism in whatever you are studying or investigating. ▪ And this is as opposed to what a lot of academics do which is become hyper specialized and get lost in the academic minutiae of some argument or debate, nitpick everything and study the hell out of some little tiny element which has nothing to do with how you’re living your life, it has no bearing on your relationships, your ability to improve your happiness levels, your emotional mastery, or your overall sense of consciousness, it has nothing to do with that, it’s just some little minute academic thing that maybe you can write a paper on and get it published in some research journal… To not get lost in that academic minutiae is very important. And that just means to have the desire to really integrate everything. The goal is not to understand your little field, the goal is to understand all of life, which encompasses every field that there is. Of course some fields you’re going to be more interested in than others, but overall you’re trying to understand what the hell is going on in life and how should I be living my life, these are really important questions. ⁃ Principle XV: Argumentation and debate and justification are tools of the ego, and they do not serve truth finding. ▪ If your objective is to find truth, and your objective is to understand, then you have to let go of argumentation, debate, and justification. Stop doing these things. They are holding you back, they’re sucking you into ego, they’re sucking you into this paradigm of defending some kind of position. And the more you defend a position, the more stuck you become.
  13. HOW TO STUDY NOTES — THE KEYS TO ACING SCHOOL & COLLEGE: —Studying is a skill and is something acquired and developed through practice. —Approach studying with a growth mindset: you’re inherently just as good as anyone else, and what it all boils down to is practice, practice, practice, repetition, repetition, repetition. —You CAN learn. —It’s not about the grades. Stop focusing on the grades. —Put all extrinsic motivations off to the side. Stop thinking about it. —The important question is: why are you trying to become a great student? Answer: You want to become a great student, you want to learn how to study, because it is a critical life skill that literally is going to setup your entire life. —This will be the difference between being happy, and miserable. This will be the difference between being rich and poor. This will be the difference between being neurotic and calm. Literally every area of your life that you want to have success in, or be happy in, will require study. —This is not something that just happens spontaneously. —Studying is about understanding life. Life is so fascinating. I want to understand it. This is one of the most important missions as a human being living here, as a life form, this goes really deep for me, is learning how the universe works. I’m observing it with my senses and dissecting and analyzing it with my mind. This is the foundation of all study. —This is how every effective studier, every effective scientist, mathematician, approaches this problem. They don’t just sit down and study stuff. They’re genuinely curious and interested, and fascinated by the mysteries of the universe. Because this is a mysterious and amazing thing. —THE KEY MINDSET #1 THAT YOU REALLY NEED TO BECOME AN EFFECTIVE STUDENT is to get in touch with the fact that life is deeply fascinating. I don’t care what you’re studying. Get in touch with the fact that you’re interested in ALL of it. —One of the secrets to school is, of course, try to pick the stuff that you’re really fascinated about, and if there is stuff you are not fascinated about, you have to trick yourself in your brain, and say: what could I find fascinating about this? What could be interesting about this? Why is this important? Maybe I haven’t opened my mind to this subject yet? —You CAN find satisfaction in learning almost about anything. —Focus a lot of your discretionary time on actually studying the stuff you find fascinating, outside of the stuff you find fascinating for school. —The secret to learning and to all studying is learning equals repetition. It’s just repetition. That’s all it is. There is little smarts that are actually required for learning. It’s really dumb. Learning is just repetition. Brute force repetition: Again, again, again, again, and again. Your brain is going to learn it NO MATTER WHAT, even if you’re the worst student. —Study is not about memorization. What is important is the deep connections you build unconsciously. What’s happening is you’re immersed in the field of study, repeating things again, again, again, and again, and your mind just can’t help build those inner connections for you, and that process is actually really enjoyable. —You have to enjoy the study. If you don’t enjoy it, you’re not going to be a good student. —It’s so important to convince yourself to enjoy a lot of the studying you do: be very intrinsically motivated. —Combined with the principle of repetition, you can literally program anything into your mind, it’s just so dumb, it’s so simple the way it works. There’s nothing fancy behind it. No magic behind it. Then you have all the tools you need to learn anything. At that point it becomes a matter of DISCIPLINE and PRACTICE. PROCEDURE TO ACHIEVE AMAZING RESULTS AND BECOME A HIGHLY EFFECTIVE STUDENT: 1.) Create a quiet place, free of distractions, where you can study effectively. 2.) Schedule your time. Build your schedule around studying. Have an exact set time during the day when you start to study (i.e., 6pm). Study Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, take Friday night off, take Saturday off, and study Sunday. 3.) Get comfortable and slow yourself down in order to study effectively. You can’t rush the studying process. Use brute-force: A lot of the issues that you deal with as a student, the things that you can’t understand, just brute-force them through repetition, and this repetition can take time. Also, you need to be patient with yourself, sometimes you’re not going to understand the problem right off the bat. Mull it over, mull it over, and that means sometimes it takes you longer, but that’s worth it, if you calm yourself down, get comfortable, slow yourself down and open yourself to absorbing this information. This is where the love comes in. If you don’t love it, and what you’re doing is kind of rush studying through stuff just to learn it, like cramming for an exam, that’s just horrible. That’s horrible. Because you’re like a dog jumping though hoops. Don’t do that. Instead what you want to think about is this: this subject matter is really fascinating, let me study it more, let me learn more. You have to get really curious. Instead of thinking: okay how do I get this done faster, so I have more time to watch TV or play video games. No. You sit down and you say, oh this is a fascinating thing here that I’m studying about life, this is so much more rewarding, and has so much more value than watching TV or playing a video game. Connect inside to your own original motivations. 4.) When you read a book, you have to read it for understanding and excellence rather than trivial memorization of facts. The key is understanding. Get insights onto how the subject works. Studying is about understanding stuff, rather than memorizing, or using some trick or technique. Value excellence in the way you study. It should be important to you to understand something accurately. Don’t be a person who half-understands reality. 5.) Taking notes are really important. If you’re in class, learn to be a great notetaker. If you’re reading a book, learn to take notes. Develop a habit of taking notes. Start to enjoy taking notes. Keep a repository of your notes. Value the process of recording your insights, for yourself. That’s really important. 6.) Self-testing: THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT IF YOU WANT TO ACE TESTS. This is going back to that idea of repetition, repetition, and repetition. Go through the material you studied, and test yourself (i.e., practice questions at the end of a section in the textbook). Check your answer if it’s correct. This process takes time and slows you down, but it’s worth it. Keep testing yourself until you can produce a successful, quick, smooth, and silky recall. This is critical for memory, and learning occurs when what you do is a successful recall. This is very important. THIS IDEA RIGHT HERE WILL LITERALLY MAKE OR BREAK YOUR ENTIRE STUDYING CAREER. RECALL. 7.) If you’re not a good student now, you’re not just going to be a great student after this video. It takes time for you to build momentum, over the course of the days, weeks, months, and years. After a couple years or PRACTICE and DISCIPLINE, all of these techniques will integrate into your mind until it becomes so easy, that it’ll feel like you’re coasting through, really easy to study at that point, because you’ve built up that momentum, you’ve built up positive habits. This process of building up positive habits is not an easy process. It’s a little bit painful, and it will require discipline from you, but this is going to be an important skill that you’re learning because you’ll be able to apply this discipline and these habits that you learn now in high-school and college, and apply it to the rest of your life. The whole point of high-school and college is to setup the foundation to carry that studying through to the rest of your life. And remember why you’re doing all this in the long run. You’re doing all this in the long run because you really care about understanding reality, and all the cool things this will allow you to do in the future. It will allow you to design whatever life you want. Learning how reality works is one of the higher consciousness values of life. It’s one of the greatest fulfillments and joys you can find in life. A long term, smooth and mellow excitement. Develop a love for that in high-school and college. Have a vision for why you’re studying so hard. Keep the ultimate vision in mind. Never lose sight of that. That’s really important. POINTS: —If you’re studying really hard, you have to rest and sleep properly. —Schedule your time properly, and you won’t need any “all-nighter’s.” Take naps almost everyday. Sleep your full 8-10 hours. —No cramming. Cramming is ridiculous and stupid. Cramming is all about being a slave, and jumping through hoops for somebody else. —Give yourself more time to enjoy studying. —The pain of avoiding study is much worse than the studying itself. There’s nothing really painful about studying. Studying is enjoyable. —If you adopt all these principles, mindsets, and some of these techniques, you’re going to be able to get a 4.0 GPA and maybe even beyond. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING HOWEVER, IS YOU’LL BE ABLE TO TRANSLATE ALL THIS AMAZING WISDOM YOU LEARNED IN SCHOOL INTO YOUR ADULT LIFE.
  14. I'm not enlightened but from my experience the less ego you have - the more grounded, calm, tranquil and happy you become. Can't even imagine what complete egolessness could feel like in terms of feelings. I think it is worth it.
  15. Yeah, good video on Shadow work would also be very helpful, noone talks about how to do that properly
  16. The book of not knowing (Peter Ralston) And also, if you're into sports and exercising: Zen body (Peter Ralston) Will revolutionize your body awareness Eckhart tolle's book is super good too
  17. In the past I used to always multitask and listen to audiobooks\podcasts\lectures whenever I could. While in the gym, on the road or even while working some manual job and it helped me to consume a shitload of content. Not all of this content was the highest quality (spiritually-wise) but it led me to where I am right now. Recently as I develop my consciousness I noticed how these audiobooks are making me lose touch with reality when I listen to them. They make me think and analyse the content of the book and I'm starting to get lost in its concepts, I'm not here in the NOW anymore. In a sence they make me go unconscious. Unless it is some kind of a metaphysical type of book that makes me deeply explore the realty of the present moment, for example, some Peter Ralston's book, or Echkart Tolle's, or some good Leo's video. But I can't listen to metaphysical books 24\7, I also need to read something on business, on marketing, on craft that I do, on science, history, politics and many other things. And it feels really like a trade-off. I stopped listening to books in the gym and when doing other sports because otherwise It's hard for me to experience this perfect mind-body connection that is so essential in those activities. I would compare any physical activity without this connection to shallow sex. We all agree in general that sex is a pretty pleasant thing to do but shallow sex vs really good intimate sex is just night and day. Same with exercising. We all agree that exercising is very beneficial for us in general, even while doing it unconsciously but man... It's just night and day. Same thing with music. I used to listen to music a lot, now it often times feels like a distraction. Now when I do listen music, I prefer to listen to something like this: It gives me these nice relaxation wibes, unlike most of the pop\rock\rap songs we have nowadays. They are all mostly about stimulation. Don't get me wrong, sometimes it's nice to be stimulated by a nice song, to really "feel" into it but I find it pretty unhealthy to listen to this type of music 24\7 as many teenagers I see do and as I did when I was a little bit younger (I'm 20 now). Same thing with phones but It's a whole another story. So what do you guys think about all that above? Do you experience the same stuff with audio content and if so what do you do about it?
  18. Yeah, I got the same wibe, but I think it is important and it is NEEDED. He uses different words and different angles everytime. For me last 2 videos were very on point, they were like "reminders" and very motivational. However If I'd get to choose next video I think it would be cool to mix all recent stuff with some materialistic minutia video. Some insights about business\money would be very helpful. Rewatching some episodes about money mindsets right now and damn, it is so golden.
  19. It seems like a perfect introductory video to link to rationalist-minded friends, good shit, thank you as always!
  20. My journey started from this ^ video a year ago
  21. So, i've been doing quite a lot of consciousness work recently (Meditation, yoga, self-inquiry, mindfulness throughout the day) and I feel a lot of sexual energy in me, my libido skyrockets. The question is how do I not waste it? How to transcend it and use it in a most beneficial ways? Masturbation lowers it, and when I spend it on masturbation (I don't currently have a gf), even though I have one of the most intense orgasms I ever had, I feel like i'm wasting it on some silly activity. I think I'd feel about not very intimate sex the same way if I had it. I've heard Leo talk about using sexual energy to fuel your work. But how do I do it properly? Especially if my work is intellectual (Right now I am reading and studying a lot + doing computer programming).
  22. I bought laptop specifically for reading\journaling. I just prefer pc software over tablet software. I love PDF and read 99% of the time in PDF (specifically because of Foxit PDF, it is a great software). And don't love epub\mobi\kindle formats because it is incovinient as fuck to read usually. If you know good software for these formats - let me know
  23. Why do you want to abandon acting?
