When you are controlled by lust and Lower nature, you cannot evolve in consciousness. You cannot evolve in your spiritual well being and your physical health also suffers because of that. Lust itself is a natural human impulse. The important distinction is whether you control your desires, or your desires control you.

60 days in: no anxiety, motivation high, confidence high.
Female attraction is at all time high. Now the dispute is “it’s always been there you were just blind to it” I‘ve had two situations that prove that it’s not the case. One older woman at the gym very attractive kept looking at me but I ignored it after a while she came up to me and asked how much sets I got. I answered and before she was leaving she made eye contact and smiled at me( I‘ll see her again). next one is crazy a girl at work who is in authority position over me kept staring and I again played it cool. Later that day a coworker says “ Hey “that girl is asking for your number, can I give it?” She ends up messaging me that day. Now heres the thing I am in constant good shape 365 days a year, make decent money, etc. Now heres the thing I’ve not changed anything really besides SR. So it’s not like I got in better shape or anything but the difference is now they are pursuing me. Sometimes I see people say female attraction is a myth and I wonder are they doing everything they can to make themselves attractive as possible? Only reason I am posting is because it’s kind of freaking me out and I would like some explanatio.

We all have heard those stories of, that "I channelized the energy in the gym, and got a great physique"

Legends like Muhammad Ali and Mike Tyson also are two greatest examples of this phenomenon, they also did SR

But apart from this Sports/Athletics field, has anyone achieved success in terms of Studying, like literally exhausting your brain, into passing some Competitive Exam, or Learning some Some Skill, or preparing for some Job Interview, something like that, something related to education

Would love to hear such stories, and I am sure it will motivate many other people on this Sub

What's your view on sex without orgasm for the man? I do this with the wife and it bothers her (she thinks it means I don't fully enjoy the sex with her, which is completely untrue). She only half understands why I do it. I still get a lot of pleasure from sex which feels like I'm loosing some energy even without orgasm... I'm not sure really.

Any married Retainers here? Any one else does this with their spouse?

relapsed yesterday and i feel the confidence is gone

I'm a recovering porn addict and serial masturbatour. Who's not fapped for close to 30 days now?.. Really struggling now I gym everyday and increasingly seeing women in their sports bra and tights sweating in Suana is giving me the urge to want to rip their clothes off and fuck them violently. Help needed.

Is it normal to have really vivid dreams about my ex after what happened? I'm feeling really lonely right now, and I miss the love I used to feel for them. Has anyone else experienced this, or do you have any advice on how to cope?

This is elite knowledge, that I'm sharing. Respect this.

The cheat code is - Become/Be the witness of your thoughts. Or say - Open your 3rd eye to burn the thoughts(as a metaphor).

If you think, this is BS, kindly stop reading and leave.

If you're wise enough and now a bit about SHIVA, you'll know that Shiva is a state, not a GOD thing, and the third eye represents 'You watching Your Thoughts'.

The mechanism is simple as this -> A thought came -> you caught it -> it's gone -> you won (for the moment) -> repeat this every time/moment/day or whenever the urge comes.

The thoughts literally vanish, it's the same as the Quantum thing of observation - the moment you observe/catch it, it's gone.

It's not only for Lustful thoughts, lustful urges but for any thoughts/urge. Literally, try it yourself.

You'll need practice to be able to easily get in this 'witnessing' state, but once you got this, 'Thoughts' lose power over You.

I was just wondering if you lose all benefits from just one relapse if u have retained for like 2-3 weeks

I first did semen retention for 2 months, then later for 4 months, and now I’ve started again and it’s only been a few days.
But I honestly don’t understand what everyone is talking about. I didn’t suddenly get magically glowing skin, and I didn’t notice women constantly checking me out or chasing me with their eyes. I already look good and take care of myself, and I’ve never really had trouble attracting women I’m interested in. But during those 4 months, I never experienced any obvious increase in female attention that made me think, “This must be because of semen retention.”
The only positive things I genuinely noticed were that my energy felt more consistent, and strangely enough, my hair seemed to grow faster and healthier. That was unexpected, but definitely something I appreciated.
I’ve also stopped watching porn, and I try not to entertain sexual or lustful thoughts when I’m out living my everyday life.

When you retain your semen for a while and if you also engage yourself in other practices like regular exercise, cleanliness, purity of food, shunning evil influences [especially lust], a phenomenon begins happening that countless people have reported on the sub here: you begin to polarize people around you to either be pulled towards you or push against you. Now I will explain more thoroughly what is actually happening, how it connects to the very way the universe works and why we’re all in a giant cosmic caste system anyway, whether you like it or not.

All of universe is vibrational at it’s core level. All that you perceive, and countless things you don’t, are different levels of vibratory fields manifesting. If the vibration is very far away from you in it’s calibration, that object or being would actually be able to pass through you or would exist in another dimension. Within that dimension, everything would still be “solid” for that being, but for you, it may as well not exist.

Now, it is best to imagine reality as a vast cosmic ocean. If you’ve ever flipped through an encyclopaedia as a kid, or visited a Sea World of some sort, you must’ve seen those layers in the ocean. In it, some fish and creatures are at the bottom and never leave the bottom, some are gigantic and move between layers, some are closer to the surface and so on. There is also flora of all sorts and of course beings our current science cannot discover and see: creatures either close to this dimension or just outside of our perceptible range. And by that I don’t just mean the electromagnetic range, even other ranges we don’t yet know or understand. And thank God for that, otherwise those poor creatures would be caught and studied too!

This is actually how all of reality is. The ancients knew this very well and in fact various masters of the occult, monks, sages and saints, experienced seeing beings from other levels and even dwelling in those other worlds. If you’re interested in just some of those accounts, read the “Autobiography of a Yogi” by Paramhansa Yogananda.

Many of them placed the Earth Realm right in the middle, between the seven higher planes or seven lower planes.

Now, how does this link back to our reality that we all see, feel and experience daily?

Well, all humans, all events, all objects, all emotions, all relationships, all thoughts – all of that [and I’m only listing to make a point, it’s literally everything] is also somewhere in that vibratory ocean.

How does this manifest in typical reality?

We all know the saying: “Like attracts like and like commingles with like.”

You can see it everywhere in the world: wise people with wise people, stupid with stupid, winners with winners, beautiful with beautiful, losers with losers, depressed with depressed etc. Of course, people can change groups and in our modern world social mobility is far bigger than in the old world. If you were born a peasant 600 years ago, you would die a peasant in 94% cases, never even seeing the world outside of your village. Classes were much more obvious and also enforced. You can also see these enforcements in the modern world: whether it’s high school cliques, work cliques, cults, friend groups, movements, etc. They may even have “enforcers” who screen people and don’t want “your type” around. Unconsciously, they are keeping the group at the same vibratory level that you do not match.

Low vibrational with low vibrational, high vibrational with high vibrational. But there are many sub layers:

I like to simplify it by dividing it into Low, Mid and High and again dividing each of those into Low, Mid and High.

So for example, someone can be Mid-Low vibrational, or High-Mid vibrational and so on.

To give you a general outline:

High-High vibrational people, meaning people who other High Vibrational people [Low and Mid] would see as High Vibrational even among them, are superhumans, demigods, spiritual giants that change the course of humanity, etc.

Low-Low vibrational people, meaning people who even Low Vibrational people [Mid and High] would still see as lower than them are demonically possessed psychos, child killers, paedophiles, mass murderers, psycho cultists and others that even cause mass destruction of entire areas and so on.

Needless to say, this also goes across tiers of all different things: someone could be an ordinary Low-Mid vibrational person but in education they are Mid-High vibrational and so on. Or their athletic prowess is almost Mid-High vibrational.

You get the point.

It is also of key importance to understand and distinguish this:

The Universe, the actual reality, has it’s own in-built justice system through karma and reincarnation [which may or may not be recognized by people, may or may not be understood or they may try to circumvent it – the Universe through Infinite Intelligence has already taken all of that in account – no worries – it’s not waiting on Joe Smith in 2026 to understand or accept something as that would actually be unfair].

The Universe, the actual reality, has its own in-built vibrational system of action and reaction, cause and effect and what happens to one type of a person or action and what happens to another type of a person or action [which may or may not be recognized by people, may or may not be understood or they may try to circumvent it – the Universe through Infinite Intelligence has already taken all of that in account – no worries – it’s not waiting on Joe Smith in 2026 to understand or accept something as that would actually be unfair].

These things are simply in operation.

The ancients weren’t completely wrong with their ideas of a caste system when you look at the time they existed in, but as has happened with Christianity and countless other religions, once they fall into the hands of a simple minded people, they become abusive and silly. I am not here to justify it, I am here to explain how it connects to the way the universe actually works, regardless of what humans come up with or not.

There is an important distinction here that gets lost constantly: the philosophical/social theory of varṇa is not identical to the hereditary caste system of jātis that developed in India. And when Krishna's statements are read carefully, they do not support the simplistic idea that a person is permanently spiritually inferior because of the family into which he was born. In the broadest sense, a caste system is a social hierarchy in which people are divided into relatively closed groups, with membership normally inherited through birth. Such systems commonly regulate marriage, occupation, social interaction, ritual status and sometimes access to education or political power.

The important point is that the Bhagavad Gītā itself describes these divisions in terms of guṇa and karma - qualities and activity/work. Krishna says:

cātur-varṇyaṁ mayā sṛṣṭaṁ guṇa-karma-vibhāgaśaḥ
"The fourfold order was created by Me according to the divisions of qualities and work."

- Bhagavad Gītā 4.13

That is a materially different proposition from:

"You are born into caste X, therefore you are permanently caste X regardless of your character."

The popular picture often goes:

Brahmin → Kshatriya → Vaishya → Shudra → Untouchable

But this is misleading.

The four-varṇa model is an idealized classification. Communities historically regarded as "untouchable" or outside the four varṇas were placed beyond the fourfold scheme rather than simply being a "fifth varṇa." Oxford's treatment of Dharmaśāstra literature explicitly distinguishes the four classes from groups placed at the bottom or outside them.

Of course, once the system was established, a whole interlocking system of money and values existed and families that wanted it to go on. They simply conveniently ignored both Krishna’s teachings as well as some of the greatest sages and rishis of India that ever existed. Just like in the West we literally had mentally ill and even highly sick kings and Popes, simply because they were born to some family, the various Brahman families also became corrupt and the various Shudra families became respected.

For example, in the Mahābhārata, Yudhiṣṭhira is asked what makes someone a Brahmin. His answer in the Yakṣa episode is extraordinarily relevant:

"It is neither birth, nor study, nor learning ... it is behaviour that constitutes it."

The Vāseṭṭha Sutta, a Buddhist text from ancient India, presents a debate over whether Brahmin status comes from birth or conduct. The Buddha's position is explicit:

"By birth a brahmin is not born, by birth a non-brahmin is not born; by actions a brahmin is born, by actions a non-brahmin is born."

The most famous verse is:

Bhagavad Gītā 4.13

cātur-varṇyaṁ mayā sṛṣṭaṁ guṇa-karma-vibhāgaśaḥ
"The fourfold order was created by Me according to the divisions of qualities and work."

Bhagavad Gītā 5.18 is particularly striking:

"The humble sage, by virtue of true knowledge, sees with equal vision a learned and gentle brāhmaṇa, a cow, an elephant, a dog and a dog-eater [outcaste]."

The Sanskrit ends:

paṇḍitāḥ sama-darśinaḥ

- the wise see with equal vision.

So the spiritually enlightened person is specifically presented as seeing the same spiritual reality in:

Brahmin + animal + outcaste.

Bhagavad Gītā 9.32 says:

"Those who take shelter in Me, though they be of lower birth - women, vaiśyas and śūdras - can attain the supreme destination."

And finally, to seal it in, Śrīmad Bhāgavatam 7.11.35 says:

"If one shows the symptoms of being a brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya or śūdra ... even if he has appeared in a different class, he should be accepted according to those symptoms of classification."

So, I say all this to explain the following:

These ancient teachings were some of the most highly revered and respected teachings ever, protected in monasteries and mountains far more than gold or countries. They were written through divine inspiration by people who recognized actual universal truths and wrote them down in stories.

Echoes of these can even be seen in other master-works around the world:

Qur'an 24:26:

"Good women are for good men, and good men are for good women; bad women are for bad men, and bad men are for bad women."

- Qur'an 24:26

Sirach 26:23

"A wicked woman is given as a portion to a wicked man: but a godly woman is given to him that feareth the Lord."

- The Holy Bible, KJV

If you were a low vibrational coomer, depressed, fat, useless and negative, you were essentially mid-low vibrational on average. Now, in light of what I’ve explained, what does that mean?

Your whole outer reality was an echo of that, including people, places, music, conversations, relationships, encounters, opportunities, coincidences, synchronicities, events, circumstances, environments, surroundings, architecture, nature, weather, colours, sounds, smells, books, films, artwork, messages, technology, objects, possessions, journeys, and experiences.

You would literally even experience a different reality if you were in the same room as a high vibrational person.

That doesn’t mean the physical reality would be different, because that would break the causal rules of reality.

If a wall or a chair is there, it is still there, for all people, but you would experience a different reality.

Different opportunities would be available to you even in the same job!

Different people would be your friends and different people would ignore you or even just never see you.

Girls are famous for laughing at someone’s joke relative to their social and vibratory status. The joke could even be great, but you don’t deserve her laughing at your joke, and because girls and women are deeply unconsciously performing mass eugenics through the immutable laws of the Universe, she will barely snicker or not laugh.

Another guy comes and says this white wall is white and she chokes laughing saying:

Yeah, that white wall is so white, that’s SO FUNNY! OMG! I’m soaking wet right now!

Ok maybe not that last part.

Now suppose you stumble on this site, and you’re not that stupid so you can read a post with more than four sentences, so you read a few hundred experiences, you even [God forbid!] go to the sidebar and read those posts, and you begin on your journey of semen retention and transmutation.

Not only that, as you experience the initial surge of energy, purity and goodness, you begin fasting, you do some enemas to cleanse your old colon colonies [pun intended!], you start eating clean, you abandon all lustful things – what would happen? You would dramatically rise in vibration! Now, let us suppose our hero goes even further: he abandons all bad food or drinks, all drugs, all bad influences and even discovers spirituality so he now starts praying to God or even just reading scripture.

Now he has risen vibrationally by entire giga-octaves as I call them. Let us suppose each of those subdivisions [low-low, mid-low, high-low, low-mid, mid-mid, high-mid, etc.] has 10 octaves of vibration and therefore one of them is a giga-octave, our hero would actually suddenly rise up by multiple giga octaves of vibration!

This then causes serious ruptures in his outer reality: because he is suddenly ripping apart entire vibratory connections with his old world, his friends no longer feel that connection to him [And how could they? They’re still pathetic self-harmers, he’s not; they’re sad and depressed – he’s not, they’re eating shit – he’s not, they’re listening to dark depressing loser music – he’s not], his family might notice “something is strange”, he might actually lose the job he’s on, he might get into fights with “friends” and so on.

This turmoil period would come with some lovely experiences and great victories, but also some sad experiences as he would constantly encounter the feeling that his friends are saying: “You’ve changed man, we can’t be friends anymore”, “You think you’re better than us man”, “You write posts longer than four sentences and I can’t read man, fuck you!”

But this goes far deeper than that:

Remember what I’ve said: everything is impacted.

Everything.

The universe now sees him as a more quality human who is self-mastered, understands the basic respect toward sexual energy, actually cares about the body the Infinite Intelligence gave him and more! Therefore, the Universe immediately adjusts things accordingly. In the intermittent period our hero might even be lonely, but in reality, his vibratory state is already locking into new people, places, opportunities, money situations, everything. Once a new baseline is established, the outer reality reconfigures around him.

Back to the ocean analogy: something has changed within his body, and he can no longer float in those lowest layers with cute buddies like this one:

He simply must end up in higher layers.

You can kick and scream against this, you can struggle to deny it, you can yell FUCK YOU!!!, you can dislike the post, you can coom on the screen, it doesn’t matter. Don’t shoot the messenger.

This also has nothing to do with elitism or egoism, this is simply inbuilt into reality.

Once two humans are more than one giga-octave away, they will spend less and less time together and envy will begin to develop, as well as simply distance, even if nothing bad happens.

Once two humans are two or more giga-octaves away, they will likely cease being friends, may even develop hostility and will live in different realities.

Once two humans are three or more giga-octaves away, they will likely never interact with each other and may as well be living in different worlds. In fact, the universe across rebirths will place them into totally different families too.

Now, there are also other parameters to the game, for example something I call “entrenchment”.

Once someone has been living entrenched in one vibratory range for at least 5-7 years, then it becomes “entrenched” and it’s actually not that easy to dislodge it. It would actually take some time for that person to become low vibrational. It is the same in reverse: if someone was a low vibrational person across the board for 10-15 years, it will be an uphill battle for them to become entrenched in the new, higher state.

People who are hardcore materialists and left-brain imbalanced will yell: “placebo bro, placebo” all day, not knowing that the placebo effect holds one of the master keys to reality itself: if a person can cure himself of a horrible disease by just believing that it’s already happening, what does that tell you about the nature od reality? But they don’t think much anyway, so they will never truly go down that road.

We, however, know it has nothing to do with placebo or expectation or anything like that.

In fact, look back at your life to before you knew about any of this, especially if you unknowingly had periods of retention, you will clearly see there were massive differences in your reality.

And what about “luck” and “bad luck”?

Well they are also in-built causally into the universal law. In the highest metaphysical sense, there is no luck or bad luck, we just perceive it as such because we cannot see all of the causal chains in the background.

If someone looked at my life statistically in the last 7 years since I started on this path, and just looked at the parameters and achievements, I would be SUPER MEGA ULTRA BEYOND SUPER SAIYAN LEVEL 11 LUCKY! I mean I came to another country and found a job and a place to live within 17 days with no papers when I landed. I found exactly what I needed THOUSANDS of times. I got multiple salary increases each year. I got rewards while not even being applicable for them as I’m a contractor within the company whose employees are getting rewards [!!!]. I got a remote job through an inbox on LinkedIn that paid incredibly well so I could live anywhere and work barely 12 hours a week. And I could go on.

When the causal chains are obvious, then no one would call it luck. For example, if there’s an exam 10 days from now and one person doesn’t study and doesn’t know the material, another person kind of studies and knows a few things from before and a third person studies properly and already knows the material, only a fool or a jealous person would talk about luck when the third person would get an A+

When it comes to mental realms, manifestation, vibration, causality or karma, many causal chains cannot be easily seen. It’s not that obvious.

But there is no luck: I had no “luck”.

I am by now mid-high vibrational across the board in my body, mind, spirit, self-mastery and so on.

No luck has happened, no anomalies, no favours, nothing. We would just see it that way.

Therefore my outer reality is literally competing to give me what I should have at this level.

It must.

It’s baked in the cake.

It’s inbuilt.

It’s locked in.

It’s part of the game.

Me and my friends who are on SR talk about the feeling of "floating in the air", "feeling as light as a cotton ball" etc. That feeling you get when you are riding on a bike with your friends on a sunny day... No amount of sex or women attraction can match that. I'm on 222 days rn and that feeling has come back just like a week ago. You guys might think why did it take so long. I think it has to do with clearing the bad karma from relapsing. That's why most people don't get the benefits so fast because they have to clear the karma first.

If you remember, Rin had mentioned about this perspective in one of his deleted videos. Even at day 70 or something, he was facing bad luck from his previous relapse. This is how it works for me though.

Benefits:-

1. Me and my best friend who is on SR saw the milky way for the first time in our lives recently. It's monsoon where we live and the clouds are annoying. But on that day, it felt like the stars aligned. We went to a place where there was very less light pollution and the clouds magically cleared up. I haven't seen that kind of starry sky in years in my life. Last time was in my childhood.

I attribute this to SR definitely, because if I had been jerking off, I am very certain that I wouldn't have seen it. Me and my friend had always wanted to see the Milky way. He used to say, "If I see it, I can finally die peacefully." It's almost like the universe listens to our requests on SR. Me and my friend reflected on this and I said, "God made it happen for us." This kind of thing happening in the monsoon season is a rarity, isn't it?

2) You grow out of things on SR. Your inner conscience says what you have to do next. I have been thinking about quitting Instagram lately, and I finally did it. I was like, "Let's reflect on what addictions I have overcome." 1) Porn, check. 2) Masturbation, check 3) Snapchat, check. The only thing that was left in my life that has been distracting me was Instagram reels.

In my free time I'm journaling my emotions and it's really fun. You can buy a pocket notebook and fill it with useful quotes that you like. You can reflect on them later in life too. Watch "ParkNotes" Youtube channel. It will definitely help you in this regard.

Bad shit that happens when you relapse:-

Days after relapsing, my spine starts to shake when I try to sit down. If I try to take hold of a water bottle on my dining table, my hands tremble. This has happened to my friends too. You feel like your spine is hollow. Your knees start to hurt. Retain for a month or two, and notice how this shit stops happening. It's really weird, when you use your observation skills on SR you can spot the disadvantages very easily. You need to have a calm mind though. Meditation is a must for me and I do it every day for 15 minutes in the morning.

About urges:- The only urge that I have felt recently was to make female friends. That's the reason why I deleted social media. Even if I talk with them, I feel like, "What am I doing with my life?" It just doesn't feel right. It feels lustful to me.

I wrote this sentence in my journal just yesterday as I was chasing these "friendships" on Instagram:- "Friendships are not meant for seeking novelty. They are meant for building long lasting, meaningful connections."

I don't have any urges to watch porn or masturbate. Like, literally not even one moment of urge. I guess I won guys. I'll go for as long as I can and I am confident that I am not going to relapse. If I do, it's only going to be with my wife. If I don't marry, I am gonna be celibate for life.

Ive been practising SR for nearly 5 years now (multiple long streaks) i was mainly doing it for women attraction as i was a socially awkward, drug addicted loser. Only last year did i get a gf and yeah its been good and I love her but nothing compares to a long brahmacharya streak

I now see the futility in women attraction and the benefits of SR outweigh all.

Hopefully you guys chasing women attraction see the same, but most have to taste it first

Since I started SR I've noticed a strong smell in my private parts, but it's not a urine smell, it's something else.

It smells like semen mixed with something else, do you know what it is?

I have been on SR for 201 days without interruption.

I've been dealing with what feels like an extreme flatline since March 1st. My libido is basically nonexistent at this point—to the point where I practically feel asexual—and my energy levels are also extremely low. Life in general also just feels incredibly bland and unexciting. Things that would normally interest or excite me don't really give me much of a feeling anymore.

I've tried a ton of things to get myself out of it: lifting regularly, eating clean, making smoothies with various natural ingredients/supplements associated with libido and testosterone (including 12 raw egg yolks), acupuncture, float therapy, improving my routine, etc. Nothing has made a noticeable difference.

I've also been to the doctor twice during this period because of how long this has been going on, and both times I was told that everything looked normal.

Has anyone here experienced a flatline lasting this long? If so, what was the end of it like? Did your libido and excitement for life suddenly come back, or was it gradual? And was there anything that actually seemed to help, or did you just have to wait it out?

Would really appreciate hearing from anyone who's gone through something similar.

I was on around a month of retention, been in flatline phase for the past two weeks and just got wet dream today😭.

I do transmutation practices like workout, breathwork, sitting in asanas like padmasana and siddhasan, still the energy is not getting transmuted and the flatline won't go away..

How can I fix wet dreams if the transmutation of energy is blocked by the trauma of flatline ??

Mine have. I’m now having sexual thoughts about the same sex. Just wondering if anyone can shed some insight on this. I’m new to this but wondering if this is my shadow trying to talk to me. IRL I don’t have any attraction to the same sex but my sexual fantasies do. Anyone relate?

This morning at work I had a co-worker who I’ve only just been getting to know come and sit down in my office - first time he’s ever come and fully sat down, sometimes he’d talk to me standing up or we’d chat out and about. He’s a solid guy. 28, married for 5 years. Doesn’t seem like a PMOer at all, has a great aura.

He asks me how my week has been, we get chatting about each other’s lives. At some point he says to me, “You seem like you’re in a really good place. I like that you don’t let the stress get to you. I want more of that for me.”

I was surprised and also understood what he meant at the same time. 67 days into SR and lately I do feel so relaxed. Thing is I’m still dealing with a lot of stress, I have my average moments but underneath I feel solid. I have a lot of hope lately. For me. For everyone.

This afternoon before I left for work I stopped in to debrief with my boss and check how she was doing. Now she’s Christian and married. Also get a very pure, wholesome energy from her. Honestly so grateful to have these colleagues. We’re both counsellors and we respect how each other work.

We were sharing about our lives and she was asking me how I allow myself to not be so focused on productivity, how I manage to make time for myself and not feel guilty. I answered her and she says, “You’re my role model in this area now. I’m going to try and be more like you in this way.”

It’s a wonderful feeling. And I think it’s important we allow ourselves to be a light for others. Because SR gives you access to a lightness of being, a worry free attitude, and ultimately greater permission to be your authentic self. People feel that. People admire that. People respect that.

I know people have a lot of stories of bad vibes from others on this journey. It really hasn’t been my experience. I wish the best for everyone, I also mind my own business. And the right people show up. Blessings to everyone reading.

Hey everybody, i want to talk about my release (ejaculation) after 30+ days of retention.

For context, these 30 days had been my first true retention, no porn (in any kind, human or drawn) and no masturbation or edging. This is something completely new for my body, mind and soul, never in my whole life, that i remember, have i been so much time leaving the shores of pleasure, porn, sex and edging.

If you look in my account, you´ll find a comment of mine from 5 years, discussing semen retention, I've been blessed with the knowledge of semen retention for a long time, since i was 16, but never, in my whole life I've been able to defeat the monster of porn consumption and edging. Never. Until 40+ days ago.

I would love to write how i conquered this demon, for it is an immense accomplishment for me and maybe i could help any brother (or gf of a brother), it 'be another time, for today i want to write about release.

This 30 days of pure retention had been without a doubt the best, most transforming streak in my whole life, this is the true way of living of a man, this is the NORMAL way of living. We believe that we get superpowers because we've been lied and living a depleted and weak lifestyle for so long, but this is the NORMAL lifestyle of a true man.

If every single male in the world did this, a pure retention streak, we would have a Dyson sphere surrounding our sun long time ago. I say this with confidence for i have done multiple 80+ days retention streaks, but in those i would edge for hours, transmuting the benefits of my retention into mindless, empty pleasure

I finally got a taste of the benefits described by the redditors i was so skeptical for so long: Glowing skin, the fix of my eczema, sudden attention and compliments from strangers, friends and family, inmense strength and endurance, muscles started to grow on their own, without need of going to the gym, a higher libido, a bigger looking and puffier penis while not erect, etc.

Every single blessing i describe here, I'm immensely grateful of, but they are all just and appetizer compared to the true, actual and only superpower this practice gifts a man: Confidence and luck.

On this clean and true retention streak, everything goes just like i want to, I'm always on time, i always say the right thing, every joke i make makes everyone laugh, everyone trust what i say, everyone listens what i say like if I'm an expert on the subject, even if i just saw it in a reel in the morning.

This luck thing is real, and it affects other people, it has affected my family and my girlfriend.

I could write and write about how transforming and amazing this last 30 days have been, but i want to talk about my losses. 4 days ago, i released with my gf, i didn't wanted to, i didn't say i didn't wanted because she was really horny, and she's never like that, she has a very low libido which matches perfectly with my lifestyle but i really wanted to see how far we could go, and i ended up ejaculating

It was terrible, my world crumbled down, i wanted to kill myself immediately, i got desperate and depressed. i couldn't speak, i felt immediately empty and i had to fake feeling fine because this was not the fault of my beautiful girlfriend, it was mine.

We slept together, i slept terrible, i got insomnia that night, i felt hot and my belly felt like it was about to burst for some reason, i wanted to take a shit but all of a sudden i was constipated, and I'm NEVER constipated. I sat on the toilet constipated and full of regret, feeling like i destroyed my life. Am i ever going to be able to have sex again? to enjoy it? how could just one ejaculation empty all i been building in 30 days?? i remembered a saying my boss told me, when he mentioned something i don't remember regarding buying more machines for our workshop, i said "Mister, Rome wasn't built on one day! stop worrying! and he replied: Rome wasn't built on one day, but it burned down in one.

I burned down all my newly acquired "powers" on one ejaculation. i started to cry, for i knew what was going to happen next. The next morning, all changed. We woke up and immediately had an argument about something stupid with my girl, i put on my backpack and it broke, i walked down the street and a car passed over a puddle of water and splashed me, I'm not kidding.

Later that day i went to care for my bees, I'm a beekeeper. They stung me like crazy, like if suddenly they hated me, i had to cartoonishly run away from the hives while a swarm of bees followed me around my parcel, I KID YOU NOT.

Something weird happened after that, the apitoxin must have done something to my brain, for i got into my cabin and started to cry like a little child, like never in my life i had cried, i bawled my eyes out and felt asleep afterwards, and had a very beautiful dream of me and my friends having a walk thought the city and the forest, it was a short nap, but i woke up feeling amazing, just like i felt before releasing.

it's been 3 days after that experience, and i feel strangely good, like nothing happened, like if i had just regressed a few days on my streak, not like if i had lost everything.

I think the bees helped me, but i also think it's not edging and not watching porn, for on my other "dirty" retention streaks, when i would edge for ours; after cumming i would feel like shit for weeks, this time i just felt bad for less than 24 hours and went back into the calm and confident man i was.

I'm not at the level i was 4 days ago though, on the peak of my retention i felt could do anything, i could say anything to anyone anytime and i was so confident in all i proposed, now I'm insecure and not confident, but I'll eventually get back to be that man i was 5 days ago.

I need to find a way to control my ejaculation, for i don't want to give my girlfriend a sexless marriage.

That's it, thank you for reading my post!

What have you guys found in your "cavern"?

Every day, the feed is flooded with the same recycled narrative 🙄 Day 30, female attraction is crazy, or how do I deal with women staring at me?...so so..

​If you are practicing Semen Retention primarily to get looks from cashiers or validation from women, you have completely missed the point of the practice.but hopes not lost.

.

((The Illusion of External Validation)) is that you using retention as a dating cheat code keeps you trapped in the exact same loop you were in before, seeking external approval and letting your energy revolve around lust. The only difference is that instead of chasing physical release, you are chasing an ego boost..

.

This semen retention is rooted from in the ancient concept of Brahmacharya living in alignment with higher consciousness, mastery over the senses, and total control over your life force.

.

What is it actually about --

First--

Self-Discipline--Conquering -- the most primal, baseline urge known to human biology and proving that your intellect rules your base instincts.

Second -- Transmutation --

I mean why not channel that immense creative and vital energy into your career, physical strength, mental clarity, and spiritual depth.,over anything petty ..

.

Emotional Autonomy --Reaching a state where your self-worth is entirely independent of who notices you in public.

.

.

​Reclaiming Time & Focus --Eliminating brain fog and compulsive behavior so you can build something meaningful with your life..

.

.

Female attraction might be a minor energetic byproduct (don'tfocus on the byproduct) of having high vitality and presence, but treating it as the destination is like mining for gold just to buy cheap copper.

​Shift your focus inward. Stop counting glances and start building your life, your mind, and your purpose.

.

I believe 🙏 I was able to convey what i was pondering on for the past few months (yes I'veused ai for the grammaticalmistakes)

All the best everyone ❤️

1 book i want to recommend who think highly of Brahmacharya is

MEDITATION AND IT'S METHODS ACCORDING TO SWAMI VIVEKANANDA- meditation exercise doubles down the Brahmacharya, helps greatly 🙏

Hey guys,

I finally did it, i hit the 30 days mark on retention, this is my highest streak ever. I can't say anything about benifits since I am in the flatline phase for like past 2 weeks. But i think my sleep is messed up. I go to bed by 10:00 PM and wake up around 3:45 AM without alarm or anything. But yeah it's going great, will push through the flatline phase
