Masturbating will decrease your drive for women, making it less likely for you to find a girlfriend, since you will be less motivated. You should make it a habit to masturbate only a few times per week or less if possible and preferably only to fantasy. This is my conclusion after 10 years pondering...

Nice You're welcome, friend

You could also watch "Peaceful Warrior". This movie is about sports and spirituality. Most of the gymnasts in the movie only compete because they want recognition from others - their motives are clearly egoic. But it's possible to compete without ego, which one of the gymnasts learn. The movie is re...

This is from Tao Te Ching :) The best athlete wants his opponent at his best. The best general enters the mind of his enemy. The best businessman serves the communal good.

Not some mysterious transformation that one out of a million experience ... and that by "the grace of God." Maybe this is just a story, an obstacle put there by your mind, so you believe that awakening is impossible. This thought creates pain and doubt. Just believe you are already awakened and fre...
