it gets boring after a while.
I've been gradually adding monk-like practices to my routines. I suck shit when I try to do everything at once and just wind up regressing and binging shit (junk food, vidya, porn, etc) if I do too much. Every 30 days I add or remove something to the list. On Monday, I'll be getting of IST, and then in May I'll stop all streaming shit (currently just stopped youtube).
I did a similar approach last year in cleaning up my diet. Now the worst things I tend to eat are sandwich bread and plain Cheerios.
I've been trying mongmaxxing for the past 20 years, so far so good
Frick monkmaxxing this is one of the best pair of breasts I've ever seen
looks like he's literally rubbing his stiffy through his dress
Me on the left throwing away all my sacrifice and training and keys to enlightenment and breaking samsara for a nice tit stare while the chad on the right is unaffected by cleavage because he knows they are just part of the eight worldly winds. Why would she wear that to a temple?!
You can experience nice breasts and then return to your practices, Anon. Letting go of your attachment to them is a success in and of itself. Being a monk doesn't mean being a gay.
So as a rough assessment this looks Thai and basically most Thai monks are ex-crims and not exactly wholesome types, find it funny how dumb tourists think like it's some spiritual thing when really it's more them fricking up in life and agreeing to be in the monastery rather than spend the rest of their lives in jail.
Also agree with the other anon about those breasts, absolutely tremendous,
how come they dont rape
Westerners like to romanticize anything foreign so they have an unrealistic understanding of Buddhist monks. It’s how Chogyam Trungpa was able to successfully operate while being an alcoholic who sexually assaulted his followers (incidentally I do recommend his writings especially the well known Shambhala : the sacred path of the warrior). Buddhism gets an extra free pass for some reason because they can’t fathom buddhists being charlatans and hypocrites like in any other religion and when faced with the truth they’ll just say he’s a crazy zen Buddhist.
The idea of monkhood resonates with ISTners because it allows them to pretend that their inceldom, lack of socializing and overall failing in the game of life is actually a totally purposeful and heckin cool rejection of the superficial trappings of the material world. Of course the idea of being a monk is the middle way not simply being an abject loser who uses a misunderstanding of religions and cultures to transmogrify their weaknesses into apparent strengths and a sense of superiority. Sour grapes defense mechanism in other words, obvious to all but themselves. But if they had this kind of critical thinking and introspection they wouldn’t be in their position would they kek
so basically incelmaxxing but pretending its by choice?
Incels aren’t real, it’s just a mindset. Even Chris Chan got a prostitute to sleep with him and other lolcow types like Boogie and Wingsofredemption have had gfs/wives.
Chris smashed that tight Barbussy every which way
What ever happened to fungus girl
I can’t imagine the level of depravity that would cause someone to think like this? So much a slave to your base desires you can’t imagine someone having the strength to willingly let them go. You’re beyond saving.
You're using custom definitions and begging the question and basically made an empty comment, devoid of genuine meaning. You can imagine; you do it all the time when you LARP as a monk. Nobody wants to be "saved" by you
NTA, but… Get a load of this, this guy’s entire existence is defined by other people! Just look at you, trying to save others from themselves on the internet, when you haven’t even saved yourself yet. Ah, to be a young hypocrite…
I never said I would save you, you can only save yourself, but you have lost so much the thread and could not conceive what that would even look like.
That’s like saying castrating yourself to avoid pain caused by sexual bonds is reasonable and even noble.
Running away from the world and telling yourself you are above everything while simultaneously relying on charity to survive (ie people doing all the work so you don’t have to) is despicable and cowardly behavior.
You guys might want to read The Teachings of Buddha. He did explain that isolating yourself like a monk doesn't mean you're conquered desire, you're just avoiding it. He doesn't say everyone should be a monk, he explains it's okay to enjoy worldly desires but not let them consume you or become addicted. So not all desire is bad, but when there is too much desire it leads to suffering.
When I was a teen I read extensively on Theravada and Mahayana then Vajrayana Buddhism, I’m not ignorant. My point was that
is wrong in their thinking and they are conflating inceldom with some noble middle way which is totally wrong and just painting toxic behavior as ideal.
I hate women. that's all
He’s not even a monk, he’s a tourist too, he just wrapped a towel around himself when he saw she trusted the monks
Not really "monk mode" but I spent 2 months living in a tent inna woods in Arizona and New Mexico last fall
Just reading and practicing russian mostly
Id go into the local town to buy food, shower, and go to the gym still a few times a week
tbh I dont recommend
By the end of it I was more depressed and spastic than ever
Should've practiced a better language lol
Lol maybe, honestly Im just a huge fanboy for 19th century russian lit and thought it would be cool to read in the original russian
But im not smart enough to learn languages fast so after months I can hardly stutter through asking for directions or ordering food
thanks 🙂
That was my experience with homelessness too made me more angry and crazy than before
Utterly based anon. Godspeed
I've lived most of my life isolated
Honestly, going monk mode has made me more connected to the world. I'm much more engaged with social interactions because I use an old laptop that can't run games just for internet access, I use a stand alone gps for driving around, and I have a flip phone so I have no reason to endlessly scroll social media. I have more far friends that I see more often now simply because I have nothing to distract me from not interacting with the world. Everything is just easier when you purposefully remove everything that makes it complicated. Most people commend me for living like this, and ask me for help implementing parts of it themselves.
The first thing you need to do is semen retention as it kills testosterone and sexual desire. This is the first step of monk celibacy.
>I get my evidence from reddit
I've been doing nofap a long time and my sexual desire is the same if not more intense
you are doing it wrong,
semen retention with no wet dreams ever, no edging, no looking at naked women, no sex with women.
31 year old volcel.
Rejected 10 coworkers because I don't beleieve in sex unless I intend t make a kid and spend the rest of my life with that person.
I still like ogling at females though. I've been trying to stop doing it online. At least I stopped cooming.
Nah you just don’t have experience and are so crippled by this and a lack of self confidence that you simply couldn’t go through the act even if someone threw themselves on you. You tell yourself you’re just looking for the right woman but after 31 years you still haven’t found anyone worthy of your attention which is why you haven’t been on so much as a date.
It's easy to see this is some vapid american-type prostitute larping in front of a shrine as "I'm so spiritual" to post on her instagram. Everything about her body language shows she's uncomfortable, probably hoping they won't kick her out or that her mask won't slip enough to be visible to normies. Those lads know very well what kind of abomination they're looking at.
I can tell shes annoying by her mouth alone
Lmao you are so fricking dumb, she is too vapid to feel self conscious and those moronic uneducated orphans in bed sheets are only thinking about those breasts
The irony and hypocrisy of your post is astounding kid, you understand nothing of this world
You have to be 18 to post here.
remember homies, buddha didnt tell you to be a dumbass monk who sits all day "meditating". he didnt tell you to "not have any desires" either. its normal to desire things as an animal. what he said is "dont cling on your desires". now what does that mean? that means its okay to desire some thick b***hes but its not okay to chase b***hes all the time while losing your money and your time. it also means grinding and getting better and better while not being an egoist. i can give many more examples. since these magnificent thoughts (remember, not a religion) originated in shithole called india, all the potential of this great philosophy got wasted right after buddha's death. also if buddha saw these dyel monks of today he would laugh at them.
In Buddhism its said that women are incapable of reaching enlightenment. Also, yes, if you're not some weak homosexual that needs to drink/smoke, then you'll find something else to do that's more productive and rewarding.
