>>219107Dude ,
>>219101 here.
You mentioning the succubus threw me off, i just had one visit me last night in my dreams! It was really insane. I even saw Ishtar, completely with wings and tits out address me. I felt the pull to her, but i overcame the desire. And then she became red, overflowing with blood. The rest of the dream was me fighting a gauntlet of monsters, it was like dark souls (wtf) I'm kinda curious what i'll dream next. And props to your awakening, i want to become stronger too in this strange journey ;)

>>219144I got tired of reading that halfway through so I used AI to condense that word salad into the important bits:
1. The brain's reward system is linked to various impulses and habits.
2. The method involves depriving yourself of all pleasurable activities for 7 days, including:
- No entertainment (video games, music, TV, internet)
- No phone or social media
- No masturbation
- No contact with people you like
- Minimal personal items in your room
3. During this period:
- Eat a high-protein diet
- Only engage in reading, lifting weights, and possibly meditation
- Avoid idleness and daydreaming[
4. After 7 days, gradually reintroduce positive habits first.
5. The goal is to "reset" the brain's reward system, allowing you to build new, healthier habits and improve self-control.
The author claims this method drastically improved their discipline, focus, and overall well-being

I don't lile these "self discipline" people, I tend to look down on them because all they want is to see others follow their path and think their advices are god's words, like : DUDE I found THE thing that will make you alpha male TRUST ME!!
but anyway,nevermind Im just being grumpy
No.219156
>>219155I dislike them because they tend to not be very bright and have a one-size-fits-all mindset. They think the more they hype themselves up and the harder they bash their head against the door, the faster it will open. In reality, before you act, you need a plan, some kind of insight into the problem… I don't know, I just never managed to accomplish anything by just screaming SELF-DISCIPLINE!!!!!!! and hoping shit goes well. It was always a slow and patient process, nothing happening for a long time before it becomes clear. If the process is painful, it's usually the wrong approach.
I guess behind the fantasy of self-discipline is the idea that you could achieve whatever you want, as long as you suffer through some required amount of pain. It really doesn't work that way, it's always more complicated, and your hard work is usually just one small piece of a bigger puzzle, mainly everything aligning in the environment so that your efforts actually have an effect. The idea that you're the only obstacle in your path is a convenient fantasy, unfortunately. And when you feel the resistance towards work, that's the world itself pushing back, not your own lack of will.

Also kinda nice to see my former brothers of the rotten path posting here. They have a point but i found decay boring and full of suffering. The path of retention is also hard but it's never boring.

>>219265no, it's true. astral bitches coming for your mana, i mean. i've seen many cases around. also that shirtless kid who'd explain weird physics in front of a whiteboard. he was also visited by a female entity of this kind when he was at the depths of his psychosis very close to enlightenment. but he embraced her, and look where that took him.
may god protect me from such astral succs, because from the physical ones my hygiene already does.

To be sufficient for oneself, and consequently to have no need of society, without at the same time being unsociable, i.e. without flying from it, is something bordering on the sublime; as is any dispensing with wants. On the other hand, to fly from men from misanthropy, because we bear ill-will to them, or from anthropophoby (shyness), because we fear them as foes, is partly hateful, partly contemptibleHe also wrote that the idea of the moral law is the personality itself ( the idea of HUMANITY regarded intellectually ) and that man viewed as a person is the homo noumenon.

>>219289Racist is a broad term. He didn't use the individual variation as a quality analogous to freedom explicitly to justify colonialism. You can be racist and oppose colonialism. Freedom ( empirically-psychological, positive, negative freedom ) is a mere idea without reality, everything that ethically preserves is equally justified for idealists. I will free only if I will autonomously. You may find all that stuff in a philosphical dictionary, plus any Kantians should be present here on a cel board, i guess. It is Nietzsche who said In the Gay Science do not talk to me about the categorical imperative the persistency of your moral judgment might still be just a proof of personal wretchedness or impersonality. I respect Kant but it's plainly cucked to equate self-discipline with morality, just see how sanctimoniously normalfaggish the guy in the pic sounds. I could try to morally justify racism firstly by pointing to the spontaneity of evolutionary processes and trying to show the apriority of logical laws in the organisation of the genus as F. A. Lange did ( Kant himself called the practical reason a naturally acquired faculty which amounts to saying that there would be no faculty of reason without the evolution of the upright posture and the development of the brain etc. all qualities of the higher race ) and then historically but I still cannot give a truly moral account of my other worldviews such as celibacy and antinatalism.

Anyone attract the most negative asshole guys on SR? Almost got into fights on the way to work and on my job. It's like the darkness finds you and wants to fuck with you. I never believed in the devil, or the evil powers but damn i'm starting to. It's like something wants you to get off the path. When you are sinning, the devil/demiurge leaves you alone. When you try to be better, it's gonna fuck with you . Maybe it's all in my head, but damn what a trip. Still have insane dreams, visited shadow world of my old house with my family members (really painful), one succubus even said to stop simping. When does it stop?

>>219437I'm not racist, I just wish I was never born. The idea of radical evil is subhumanity. Now evil is either sensuality as original sin (sex) or reason (pronatalism), the two roots of knowledge. I'd be a completely delusional schizo if I introduced a racial hierarchy of biological volcels into my hypothetical kingdom of ends. I hope you understand, Kant is a sort of critical pantheist, the idea that we must think of the absolute on the analogy of human relationships. Cognition depends on a feeling and the feeling of respect for the law is the feeling of humanity. Schopenhauer objectifies the will, that is, the feeling, equating it with the thing-in-itself and claims that he can feel it in concreto (»the psychic energy«, libido) and we have voluntarism/vitalism/physico-theology. But any vitalistic hierarchy is senseless.
