A man's advice to one who is desperate for sensual gain

Great post(s) that I found. I don't agree with all of it, but overall it's solid advice:

You are looking externally for what must be found internally. Why do you want to get rich, "get laid" and "go on unique adventures?" If you follow these questions, and the additional questions following these queries generates, you will eventually resolve your problem. Questioning is the most powerful "magic" ever, particularly self-questioning.

Astral projection from the perspective of a Javanese mystic

Now allow me to explain astral projection from the perspective of an Indonesian mystic, particularly that of Javanese mysticism, as it's the most widespread form of mysticism known here in Indonesia.

There are certain ethnicities and tribes which have their own names, ways, and methods to perform astral projection, but that'd take much longer to explain and would need a separate thread to describe them all..

7 Day Water Fast: Postponed

I have decided to break my fast. I wasn't ready and didn't ease myself into it. After being broken again and again I saw that I wasn't prepared. Perhaps I was too over confident... I still reached 5 days, so I'm not too far from my original goal. I'll definitely try again sometime in the "future." Thanks for the homies who were following this little log.

If any of you guys have any suggestions for something else I could try, let me know.

Till next time.
